Here is Jenna‘s scarification by Jason Odd at Modern Epic in Hood River, Oregon (at about two days). Sort of a variant on fear is the mind killer?

It sounds similar to a line from a Tool song: “We are eternal, all this pain is an illusion”

Yeah, I instantly thought of the Tool song(s) (Parabol/Parabola) when I saw this. I really like it!

It is inspired by parabola. I like the phrase better with “just” in there. This is something I tell myself when i am feeling down. This is also for a friend of mine that just passed away due to cancer.
