"What is the use of spending all one's time on things that don't last? The drama of life has for its moral the fact that it is merely that: a drama, an illusion.
Fools, imagining the play to be real and lasting, weep through the sad parts, grieve that the happy parts cannot endure, and sorrow that the play must, at last, come to an end. Suffering is the punishment for their spiritual blindness.
The wise, however, seeing the drama for the utter delusion it is, seek eternal happiness in the Self within.
Life, for those who don't know how to handle it, is a terrible machine. Sooner or later it cuts them to pieces."
It's All Temporary
