“The end of ego is the `Mystic Death' of the mediator”

“The ego … reduces the present to a means to an end.”

“Aspiration lead to mystic path and the end of mystic path i gnosis. But gnosis itself has no end. Its gate is always open. The traveler must cross it.”

“… the most common cause of death among alpha males was ego.”

“Death was defiance. Death was an attempt to communicate; people feeling the impossibility of reaching the center which, mystically, evaded them; closeness drew apart; rapture faded, one was alone. There was an embrace in death.”

“Death is not the end. Death can never be the end. Death is the road. Life is the traveller. The soul is the guide.”

“And in the end it is because of mysticism that it is possible to say that “no man is an island” and that on the contrary every man is “a part of the main.””

“Reincarnation comes under the more general doctrine of reimbodiment. It is the teaching that the human ego returns to earth at some future time after the change men call death... in order that the ego may learn new lessons on earth, in new times, in new environments; taking up again on this earth the old links of sympathy and of friendship, of hatred and dislike, which were apparently ruptured by the hand of death when the ego-soul left our spheres.”

“Everything ends in death, everything. Death is terrible.”

“I have told you that upon physical death the ego becomes the subconscious in the next existence, and that its conscious knowing is retained electromagnetically.”
