By

Akkad the Orphic Priest

Hymn for Sleep

Sleep, king of gods, and men of mortal birth,
sovereign of all sustained by mother earth,
Thy dominion is supreme alone,
Over all extended and by all things known,
It is your bodies all with good mind
In other metals than those of brass to bind,
Tamer of cares, to tiring works' repose,
From whom sweet solace in affliction flows,
Your pleasing, gentle chains preserve the soul,
And even the dreadful cares of death control,
For death and apathy with oblivious stream,
Mankind, your genuine siblings justly deem,
With favoring aspects to my prayer incline,
And save your mystics on their works divine. - From the Orphic Hymns

''Death, like every other event in human life, is a manifestation of law. When we understand the law we can direct the forces of change so as to overcome death. Yet understanding never will be ours until fear, not only of dying, but of death itself, has been overcome by right knowledge, and by right interpretation of the phenomena of physical dissolution." - Paul Foster Case, on the 13th key, Nun

"Somebody asked a Zen master what happens after death and the master replied, 'I don't know,I'm not a dead Zen master.' " - Robert Anton Wilson
