Passing through this door, one has to cross over to the other side. Whenever someone dies, it is a very special moment. It is as if at that moment, the door leading out to the other world, which is hidden from us, is opened for a short while. If one possesses eyes that can truly see, one can clearly view through this door the other world where all of us, one day or the other, have to go. But the sights of the present world have so bedazzled people that even when they stand before this open door they see nothing of what is on the other side. Even though they stand so close to reality, they remain totally unaware. o The grave therefore is not really a grave, but rather, a door that has been opened for the deceased to enter the other world. Passing through this door, one has to cross over to the other side.
