Man commits the greatest fault by identifying himself with the body. He has accumulated a variety of things for the upkeep and comfort of the body. Even when the body becomes weak and decrepit with age, he attempts to bolster it up, by some means or other. But how long can death be postponed? When Yama warrant comes, each has to depart. Before death, position, pride and power, all vanish. Realising this strive day and night, with purity of body and mind and spirit to realize the Higher self, by service of all living beings. The body must be preserved as a vehicle for this service. But remember, you are not this body; this body cannot be you. Tat Tvam Asi, Thou are That. (Prema Vahini, pp. 6-7)
