Immortality is a depth in the moment || Acharya Prashant (2016)

Question: Is it real that human beings can live forever?

Acharya Prashant: It depends on what you think of human beings. If you think that they are born, then they will die.

L1: I mean the human body.

AP: The body never dies!

L1: The body never dies?

AP: Never dies. What do you mean by the death of something? What do you think? This(pointing towards his hand) was ever not there? This is stardust. This was always there and will continue to be, long after you and me are gone.

L1: It disintegrates; it dies.

AP: It may disintegrate in our perspective. What you call as disintegration, is a flowering. What do you think that tree is? That tree is somebody’s disintegrated body! This is immortal. Well, you figure out what is it that dies then? Truth doesn’t die and the material too doesn’t die.
