“It was the summer of 1967, and the Six Day War between Israel and its neighbors had just taken place—not the most auspicious time for two Jewish guys to drive through the Middle East.

“The mind is a wonderful servant but a terrible master. If our attachment is to the thinking mind, it dies with the brain and the body.

The soul is infinite, eternal, beyond space and time.”
