Once, in USA, a young lady asked the great Indian monk Vivekananda, 'What is life?' Vivekananda said, 'Come with me to India. I will teach you.' She asked, 'What will you teach me?'
He said, 'I will teach you how to die.'
If you know the secret of death, the quality of your life will be different. Your very understanding and attitude towards everything will change.
Death is not a mere incident at the end of your life. It is a profound knowing. If you know how to die, you know how to live. Living and leaving are two sides of the same thing. Your life will be totally different once you understand death.
