Jesus tells us that "unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone." Rumi, the Sufi poet, echoes this wisdom, declaring that, "Except for dying…no other skill impresses God." What does this mean? How do we "die before we die?" Prepare to enter the mystery in this episode and discover what "plentiful harvest" awaits on the other side of life.
