The attitude of the living towards the dead is one of the most loathsome expressions of mankind’s selfish ignorance.
\n
It’s either a complete I-couldn’t-care-less attitude, or else, “Ohh, anything to get rid of that!” I have some children here (they’re no longer children), who live here with their fathers and mothers (who aren’t very old), and some of those children told me “dreams” in which they saw their fathers or mothers dead and coming to them … and they sent them back violently, saying, “You’re dead, you’ve got no right to come and bother us”! …

\nwe ever overemphasize the fact that what happened to Mother ten years later, in
\n1973, is an unspeakable betrayal … of which she had a presentiment? ]]
