existence is one, or think that there is no ego in you. Both will do the same thing, the result will be the same. You will come to an oceanic unity. And once known, that unity cannot be lost again.
KILL OUT ALL SENSE OF SEPARATENESS. Just become a drop -- a drop of water that has fallen into the ocean and become one with it. And don't fear death because, really, there is no death for you.
The one who is afraid is a false phenomenon, a false entity -- an entity that is created by the feeling of separateness. In meditation, remember that you are jumping back to the source, jumping into the source. You are moving from the ego to an egoless existence.
Be ready to die in meditation. If you can die in meditation, you will attain eternal life. You will become deathless.

He was always more alive before, because there were not so many possibilities to fulfill so many sensations. But now science, progress, civilization, education, have created so many opportunities to move further and further into the world of sensation. Ultimately, you turn into a dead person; your sensitivity is lost. Taste more foods -- stronger tastes, stronger
