Aristotle

Death is the real inspiring genius or Musagetes of philosophy, and for this reason Socrates defined philosophy as thanatou mélétè (preparation for death Plato, Phaedo, 81a). Indeed, without death there would hardly have been any philosophizing.
Luce Irigaray

The tantras can be very confusing for a person who is new to Buddhism, and for several thousand years the rule was not to expose a person or a new monk to the tantras until they had practiced for many, many years.

Image
That's how it happens, livin life by the drop.
