Hermann Hesse Quotes
What Is Meditative Absorption? What Is Leaving The Body? What Is Fasting? What Is Holding The Breath? These Are A Flight From The Ego, A Brief Escape From The Torment Of Being An Ego, A Short-term Deadening Of The Pain And Absurdity Of Life. This Same Escape, This Same Momentary Deadening, Is Achieved By The Ox Driver In An Inn When He Drinks A Bowl Of Rice Wine Or Fermented Coconut Milk. Then He No Longer Feels His Self, Then He No Longer Feels The Pains Of Life - He Achieves Momentary Numbness. Falling Asleep Over His Bowl Of Rice Wine, He Reaches The Same Result Siddhartha And Govinda Reach When, Through Long Practice Sessions, They Escape Their Bodies And Dwell In Nonego. That Is The Way It Is, Govinda." Govinda
