THEN PLEASE JOIN THIS PART TO THE ROOT SO THAT I DON'T HAVE TO BE FRIGHTENED IN THIS CHAOS AGAIN AND AGAIN.
Do you see the difference? The last question came from experience. This question is academic.
"We are part and parcel of God, and indestructible too." Do you know this? You have heard it, you have read it -- and as it gives your ego satisfaction, you believed it. What could give the ego more satisfaction than saying we are part of God... we are God, we are Brahma, we are indestructible! This is what you want. This is the search of the ego. This is your deepest desire -- that you should become indestructible, a part of God, one who is Brahma, the lord of the whole universe.

What transformation will it bring to your life? What will you attain?
"... When, why and how this part got separated?" If you know you are a part of God then you know you have never been separated. You have had a dream of separation. You have never been separated -- how can a part be separated? The part exists only with the whole. You have forgotten. You cannot be separated but you can forget. There is no way to separate. We are that which exists. Even though we can forget, still we can remember -- the whole difference is of forgetting and remembering.
"... When, why and how this part got separated from the root?" If you were separate I could tell you when, why and how. You are not separate. Asleep at night, you dream you are a horse. In the morning you ask, "Why, how, when did I become a horse? It is very difficult -- why did I become a horse?" The first thing is that you never became a horse. If you had, would there be anyone left to
