My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.
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.
When you go beyond awareness, there is a state of non-duality, in which there is no cognition, only pure being. All separation ceases.
It is inevitable that a tragedy should arouse sorrowful feelings. Still, out of that sorrow itself comes a feeling of triumph – the victory of the human will over the most adverse circumstances. And thus out of sorrow and defeat come joy and victory.
