When he died he had the body of an 84-year-old man, but a spirit of an 11- or 12-year-old boy.

We lost the man in body but we didn't lose him in spirit. So I'm relying on his spirit to take care of me.

Santa is a magical and cuddly man, not a fat, smelly slob. He must not smell of drink or body odor.

Know ye, beloved, that in the beginning man had no image by physical body. Intellect was. Men were created Spirit by Spirit. Know ye that intellect sought flesh for a purpose. Spirit as spirit hath no identity; only after long experience on planes of matter doth spirit feed its essence. Thus cometh identity: through trial and through error, through life as mortal being. Man was divine from the beginning, a thought-force of the Father, knowing good and evil, creating no material thing without a loving purpose.

It's as if I've arrived in a place where it's all spirit and no body - an overwhelming sense of calm...I actually began to feel blessed.

You can kill the body but not the spirit.
