Chapter X<br />

<strong>The</strong> Path of the Departing Soul<br />

When a man departs from this world, he reaches the air.<br />

<strong>The</strong> air opens there for him as wide as the hole of a<br />

chariot wheel. Through this opening he ascends and<br />

reaches the sun. <strong>The</strong> sun opens there for him as wide as<br />

the hole of a lambara. By this opening he ascends and<br />

reaches the moon. <strong>The</strong> moon opens there for him as<br />

wide as the hole of a drum. By this opening he ascends<br />

and reaches a World free from grief and cold. <strong>The</strong>re he<br />

dwells for endless years.<br />
