To have the inner intent to die early is artadhyan (adverse contemplation) as well as raudradhyan (wrathful contemplation) and to have the inner intent to not die is also artadhyan and raudradhyan. One should disembark when the ‘station’ arrives. Do not have the inner intent to die and also to not die. Dada Bhagwan
