Death Is Not

as the embodied soul continually passes, within the current body, from youth

to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. The

realized soul is not bewildered by this change.

 

 

Mu, this is the truth, and we all know it. We all know death is coming, yet

we try to not think on it. There were times on Earth when it was otherwise.

Caesar wrote of the Celts that they made deals, wherein the other person

agreed to pay back the debt in the NEXT LIFE or the AFTERLIFE. Cool. We were

not always bewildered as we are these days.

 

There are cultures which place much emphasis on the gratifications of the

current life, and therefore, disease and death are lamented much more in

those cultures. The difference is religion, or theism, which your family has

a strong root into. Yay.

 

I have watched you go from nothing to everything in Jyotish. I have watched

you struggle from having little, and yet doing everything with that little.

 

I do not know your mother, except through you. Through you, I realize, who

she was. Similarly with my mother- she is a huge part of my power. Her

dedication to duty is in me, and your mother is in you.

 

And you are very cool.

 

I wave at her flying by, in light and glory, and thank her for her son, who

is a light to the world around him.

 

Like her, I assume.

 

Peace Mu, peace to everyone, in "death", we find new life, as much as Spring

comes from Winter, new life, from old mulch of lives lived nicely.

 

Onward in strength, Divinity in clear sight, straight ahead, to rejoin great

ancestors, to realize our full potential as souls of light, grace, wisdom,

truth, happiness, JOY, JAI, YAY !
