“If, over the years, the habit has developed to watch one’s mind in the state of absorption and to control it more and more, this is particularly helpful on the deathbed. The hard-pressed mind finds support in the familiar and trained methods and can more easily compose itself.”

Lama Ole Nydahl, Fearless Death
