Ites!
The proverb sounds similar to:
"He said to them, "You are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world." (John 8:23)
"Jesus answered, "My kingship is not of this world; if my kingship were of this world, my servants would fight, that I might not be handed over to the Jews; but my kingship is not from the world." (John 18:36)
So is the proverb saying that we should not be of the world because the ways of the world are an illusion? Separating oneself from the illusion will give everlasting life..which is living in Truth..cuz 'living' in falsehoods/sin/imbalance results in death?
