| Quote of the moment |
| In the case of the death of a person who has been engaging in nonvirtuous practices, the consciousness would start dissolving from the upper part of the body and withdraw within the heart. In the case of a person who has performed virtuous activities, the dissolution of the heat starts from the lower part of the body and finally withdraws at the heart. In both cases the transference of consciousness would take place at the center. |

| Quote of the moment |
| During conception, even the physical substance on which the self is conventionally based - the egg and sperm - belongs to someone else, the parents; still you can say that it belongs to the self also. The body comes from someone else, but as soon as the consciousness enters, it's that new person's body, embryo, fetus, or whatever you want to call it, even though prior to that it wasn't. So the physical constituents of the embryo come from two different people; but as soon as the consciousness enters the mixed cell, that cell now belongs to the consciousness. |
