The text describes death as a 'state of happiness for the body.' What does this paradoxical statement mean in the context of Sai's teachings?

πŸ“– Chapter 43

This statement from Chapter 43 suggests a radical shift in perspective. Death is presented as the natural state and even a form of happiness or rest for the physical body, whereas life is considered a 'modification' of the body. For the wise, this means recognizing that the body is temporary. For a perfected saint who is a 'mass of bliss' and devoid of bodily impulses, the body is merely an adjunct. By detaching from the identification with the physical form, the end of the body is not a tragedy but a natural conclusion to its modification, which is life. This view completely removes the fear associated with death.
