这是基督教圣人MEISTER ECKHART说的名言，从另一个角度解释了同一个道理：

“The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of your life; your memories, your attachments. They burn 'em all away. But they're not punishing you, he said. They're freeing your soul. ... If you're frightened of dying and holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth。”

他说，唯一在地狱烧你的就是你的那个不愿抛弃的自我意识，比如你的生活，你的回忆，你的牵挂。如果你有这些东西，地狱就会把它们烧掉。但是，不是地狱在惩罚你，而是他们在解救你的灵魂。如果你害怕死亡，牵挂过去的一切，你就会看到魔鬼们把你的所谓的“生命”和牵挂一片片撕去。但一当你和世界MADE PEACE，也就是说放弃你自私的小我，拥抱了大我，这些魔鬼立刻成为天使，把你解放。
