From the book Life After Death by Harold Klemp
The purpose of the ECK teachings is to make you aware of yourself as Soul. You begin to realize your ability to move beyond the physical body even while you are still alive in the body. When Saint Paul said "I die daily" he referred to this process. It is similar to death, in that, in the Soul body, one actually leaves the physical body to take a look at the worlds beyond.
Here one gains confidence and courage and becomes acquainted with the other worlds, so that when the time comes, Soul moves through the transition smoothly, very naturally. Death loses its sting, the grave loses its victory.
Sometimes the transition is made so gradually that the person who is near death finds it a pleasant experience. I remember the way my grandmother would sit by her sewing machine and seem to be talking to herself. But she wasn't at all. She was speaking with friends and relatives from the other side. She was already able to see them.
