Swami Paramananda
The wise who know the Self, bodiless, seated within perishable bodies, great and all- pervading, grieve not.
Then a wise man through the practice of discrimination has seen clearly the distinction between body and Soul, he knows that his true Self is not the body, though It dwells in the body. Thus realizing the indestructible, all-pervading nature of his real Self, he surmounts all fear of death or loss, and is not moved even by the greatest sorrow.
