Summary

This quote reflects on the idea of what happens to a person after they die. It suggests that various parts of a person - such as their voice, breath, eyes, and mind - are interconnected with different elements of nature. The voice goes into fire, symbolizing its transformation and disappearance. The breath dissolves into the wind, implying a sense of dispersal. The eyes become intertwined with the sun, perhaps suggesting a unity with the celestial realm. The mind merges with the moon, alluding to a cosmic connection. The hearing becomes part of the vastness of the heavens. The body returns to the earth harmoniously. Lastly, the spirit moves into the vastness of space, indicating a transcendence beyond physical boundaries.
