The reason for the monk's detached demeanor to the soldier's threat is because the monk has achieved awareness of his true nature and thus understands that the disintegration of his temporary form does not equate to obliteration of his true form and that the transitory phase which the phenomenon of death as is experienced in this world will lead to the next phase in the movement towards the fountainhead. The monk has gained wisdom of the stillness necessary when traversing through the vortex. The monk comprehends himself as Oneness with All and thus knows that all will unfold as it should, even his own death if it should come at that time through the soldier's hands.
