Summary
Q: What is the state of the mind that is in the process of dying?
What is death? Is there life after death, is there a continuity? If not, what is the point of living at all?
Why is there the whole process of identification: my possessions, what I will be, success, power, prestige?
The identification process is the essence of the self.
Is it possible to live in daily life without this identification process which brings about the structure and the nature of the self, which is the result of thought?
Is it possible to be free of the ‘me’ which produces all this chaos, this constant effort?
Can thought end?
Is it possible to live a daily life with death, which is the ending of the self?
