The Holy Mountain

"The grave recieves you with love. Surrender yourself to the Earth. Return what was loaned to you. Give up your pleasure, your pain, your friends, your lovers, your life, your past, what you desire. You will know nothingness, it is the only reality. Do not me afraid, it is so easy to give. You are not alone, you have a grave. It was your first mother. The grave is the door to your rebirth. Now you will surrender the faithful animal you once called your body. Do not try to keep it, remember, it was a loan. Surrender your legs, your sex, your hair, your brain, your all. You no longer want to possess. Possession is the ultimate plan. The Earth covers your body. She came to cover you with love, because she is your true flesh. Now you are an open heart, open to recieve your true essence, your ultimate perfection. Your new body, which is the Universe, the work of 'God'. You will be born again, you will be real. You will be your own Mother, your own Father, your own Child, you own perfection."

- Alejandro Jodorowky, 'The Holy Mountain' 1973
