THE DROPPING OF THE PHYSICAL BODY BY THE AVATAR

 
The dropping of the physical body by the Avatar or by the Sadguru is not death, for even while he uses the body he is in no way attached to it and has no sanskaric link with it. Nor does the dropping of the body in these instances involve the usual survival of a limited individuality or ego-mind, for these are simply non-existent in the Sadguru and Avatar.

Their dropping of the body also differs from the death of advanced yogis who may voluntarily drop their physical body after completing their work. The advanced yogis cannot discard their ego-mind or limited individuality, which clings fast to them even after severance of their connection with the physical body, but the Majzoob-e-kamil, the Sadguru and the Avatar embark upon a unique and direct "journey" to the unbounded and indivisible ocean of divinity.
