Man struggles to fulfill his desire. When desire meets with expectation it has already caused a fire. This fire keeps burning us within until it is met with the shower of Grace. And when the fires have cooled down only then we start to see the Truth of Existence.
Our desire is only a rope, our expectation of it causes the fire to arise and so the when the fire is lit the Snake is born. The Snake of unfulfilled Expectations. It keeps biting us again and again, until the poison spreads in our entire Being, or we fall unconscious with the fear of its sting.
Life does not stop for anyone, it is continuous, abiding only in a rhythm of a pulse. When the breath leaves the body, the pulse stops, the rhythm comes to a stand still. Nothing is left then.
The manifested body becomes Unmanifest, but if the poison of this Snakes bite has spread too far, it goes ahead not with the body but with That which is continuous. Next birth, next Body and next Life.
Therefore, we need an Anti-dote Now Itself, not later, not when this Snake has already done its work. We need it Now Itself. And what is this Anti-dote? Removing the Life force of the Snake Itself -The Rope of our desires and attachment. To be free is very simple. Whats difficult is to be simple Itself.
