The truly wise mourn neither for the living nor the dead: There never was a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor any of these people. Nor is there a future in which we shall cease to be . . . Worn out garments are shed by the body, Worn out bodies are shed by the dweller within the body. New bodies are donned by the dweller, like garments . . . Death is certain for the born. Rebirth is certain for the dead. You should not grieve for what is unavoidable. The Bhagavad Gita 400 BC The Mallows - who will mourn our dear friend until we are with him.
