Thank You Rook! Brought me back to a place, I needed to be.
As an atheist... I tried to put into perspective my fathers death and what it meant to me and to him almost 10 years ago. as he was dying, we would have long discussions on what death meant, and often would read the Bhagavad Gita together, the different passages.
This one always stayed with me - and I read this at his service, along with other passages from non-Judea-Christian religions.
For the soul there is neither birth nor death at any time.
He has not come into being, does not come into being, and will not come into being.
He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing, and primeval He is not slain when the body is slain.
Bhagavad-gita 2.20
