Tom Carpenter: The Veil of the Perishable

I know that it is quite difficult to understand

that as you see birds and plants dying,

they are dying because of your belief system,

they are dying because you are seeing them die.

Once you have lifted the veil

of identifying them and yourself as being perishable,

you will no longer experience

that which you have identified as the process of death.
