The real tomb is the physical body which confines and envelops the soul while it develops its powers through the functions of social life.
The ego is a spiritual spark of Deity, and as such is eternal; but the soul alone is immortal.

Self-fed.
From this Fire all things proceed,
In it all thing have their being,
And to it all return.
~ Paul Foster Case
