picture of the transformation which awaits every mortal man and woman. For death to the human being is no more a termination or cessation than is the death-sleep of the caterpillar. In neither case does life cease for even a single instant --- life persists while Nature works her changes. We advise every student to carry with him the lesson of this little fable, told centuries ago to the children of the Hindu race, and passed on by them from generation to generation.

Strictly speaking, from the Oriental point of view, there is no such thing as Death. The name is a lie --- the idea an illusion growing from ignorance. There is no death --- there is nothing but Life. Life has many phases and forms, and some of the phases are called "death" by ignorant men. Nothing really dies --- though everything experiences a change of form and activity. As Edwin Arnold so beautifully expresses it in his translation of the "Bhagavaad Gita":

"Never the spirit was born; The spirit shall cease to be never. Never was time it was not; End and beginning are dreams.
