Before this event I’d had
numerous experiences interacting with the spirit world so I
already had no doubts about all of us as eternal beings. A few
days later I was also able to visit with him and knew that he
had adjusted to this transition very well.
I think so many people live their life in denial of their own
death. Sure we know it’s inevitable, yet at the same time it
terrorizes us so much that we try to push it away from us by
either refusing to think about it or living in such a way that
leads us to believe that everyone will die except me.
The alternative to this is to
either be constantly living with this fear of death, letting it
dictate everything we do, or we can accept our own death right
now. Why accept it now? Because eternal life is now and it lasts
forever.
The fact is that… if life is eternal, then the life we are
living here on earth is not life. We all need to learn to be
comfortable with the concept of what eternal means and begin to
see ourselves as eternal beings. We all know deep inside of us
that we are infinite beings. Each of us has carried this wisdom
throughout the ages.
What we think of as life is
really just an illusion that our ego has created. We think we
are our body, our intellect, our possessions, etc. and daily we
reinforce this belief by not allowing ourselves to connect with
and embrace infinity. Perhaps we do this because we don’t have
a clear concept of what it means to be eternal.
For example people discuss this belief or that belief and
whether or not this view is correct or that view is correct, and
we all share our experiences with each other as well. It seems
that we all need to analyze these things in order to change our
thinking to that which is eternal.
Basically there are probably only two points of view regarding
our own death. The first one says that we are our physical body
and we live here on earth for a few years or many years and then
ultimately we either die in an accident or we get sick and die
and when this happens, then we are annihilated and dead
forever.
The second point of view is
very simply that we are an eternal being or soul experiencing a
temporary expression of living in the flesh. In this second
point of view only our physical body dies, not the soul that we
truly are. And that since we are an eternal being we were
created whole and perfect and that the physical body we are
experiencing emanated from an eternal Source or the Universal
mind of the collective.
This Universal mind is formless and it takes a while for us to
grasp what it means to be formless energy, but from my
experience it is the pure energy of love, peace, gentleness,
kindness, beauty and creativity that can never die because
there’s no physical form as we know it involved so there’s
no possible way that it even could deteriorate and waste
away.
I’ve always remembered
something I learned in school many years ago. That is that
science has proven that energy can neither be created, nor can
it be destroyed… only changed in form. Basically, this means
that we are frozen lumps of energy so to speak… that can never
be destroyed.
