@Zardoz,
Quote: don't use your intellect to look behind the curtain because you are not going to like what you see.
What is the reward that the mind receives?
Surely it is what that mind believes
And the mind that rejects eternity
When freed from its body, where will it be?
Believe as you will but remember this verse
When your coffin is placed in the back of the hearse
The reward that the mind must surely receive
Is that which the mind (Not in the hearse) believes.
And perhaps this is what you see behind the veil-"Never again will you take part in anything that happens in the world, because there will be no action, no thought, no knowledge, no wisdom in the world of the dead to where the righteous, the wicked, the wise and the fools, animal and man, are all going. For the living know that they are going to die, but the dead know nothing.
What do you think happens to the invisible mind that has developed within the body of an eighty-year-old person when their body dies?
