"When you awaken, you appear the same as you are right now, only you're totally free. That's all. You're completely, totally free. Your people will still see you the same way you are now. They will not see any difference. If they stay with you twenty-four hours a day, they will notice you do not react to things any longer. They will notice you've become an embodiment of peace, that you're always happy, nothing disturbs you. There's absolutely nothing to be afraid of. It's a wonderful experience."
