Enlightened teachers get all sorts of assignments. Sometimes we end up in the higher astral sometimes we end up in the realm of pure spirit sometimes we end up in the desire realms.

Feel the wind. This wind blows from world to world and from life to death. This is the wind of dharma. Be in love with the wind. It is an intimate lover. It enraptures you. It blows you through eternity.
