| We pretend
to live and yet death terrifies us, to such extent that
we pretend we are not directly concerned. Death is made
commonplace with the daily images of massacres broadcast
by the media. But it is also hidden when it comes too
close to us. People in the twilight of their life are
kept away in old people's homes. Hidden from sights
we try to maintain them in a semblance of life as if
refusing to accept the unavoidable, but when death takes
a close relative away from us, we are at a loss.
One thing is sure, we try to run away from death and
paradoxically the only certainty we have from the very
moment of birth is that we are going to die. That is
inevitable and not a problem in itself. On the contrary,
death is desirable. But we have to approach it, to court
it, to love it so that its secret can be revealed to
us. It is the condition to live fully your life on Earth.
As for sex, we have to know what is
hidden behind, we have to go back to the source. It
is possible. It is even necessary. Do not forget : the
more you are afraid of something, the more you have
to face it, until you heart knows. Then, from that moment
on, you are not scared anymore by death. You know that
death is only a step in your life.
You can live this experience in a state
of meditation. Meditation is a no-thought place, where
you no longer exist socially thus mentally speaking,
but only as a pure consciousness.
In a real state of meditation - which
is not to be mixed up with relaxation, you can perceive
who you are. You are not your body, you are only a host.
We all are pure consciousness, being part of the Whole.
We are a spark of life and Life itself. Our individual
consciousness makes us discover we belong to the Universal
Consciousness. We are the One and the Whole. What a
paradox, isn't it ? But this is what it's all about.
Life is Paradox.
If you have experienced this magical
moment when your inner vision unveils to you all the
outer world, then you know that the inside and the outside
are a whole. And this is what you are. Death liberates
you from the physical body you have taken on.
But to live this moment of bliss, you
have to be aware of death during your life time. Not
through the others but by yourself. Your death is present
within you all the time.
When the time comes, you have to welcome
it lovingly. With compassion, gratitude. The fear of
death will make you miss your life. From now on, learn
to die living fully and in awareness. Death is the liberating
orgasm of a life lived in full awareness.
Don't live like dead people. Make Death
become a part of your life. Death is your most faithful
partner, the most patient too. She will never leave
you, wherever you go, She is by your side. You can't
run away from Her. Commune with Her. When the time comes,
She will guide you for you will know Her and you won't
be afraid of Her.
