LIFE & DEATH

The physical world we are living in an perceiving with your five senses is a kind of metaphor, a higher analogue for our own inner world.
Even in the darkest night the light is shining on. Think of a night sky lit up with millions of stars and the soft, clear glow of the moon.
Yes, there are nights, when it is pitch dark because there are thick clouds hiding away the lights shining in the sky or when the light of the moon is absent because it is its full eclipse. The answer is, that the light is still there. The clouds are only seemingly obscuring it because you are merely looking on with your lower senses of perception that are limited to your personal point of view in the world. And in the second case you are not seeing the whole picture, because if you did, you would realize just because the moon is invisible to you the light of the sun, which is its source of light is still shining even if it is currently not touching the moon’s receptive surface.
It is just like the mind, which experiences subjective darkness in times when it has lost its connection to the light-giving heart.
If you wish to live happily and freely you have to embrace death with each passing moment. Only in this manner can you be reborn in the next. Life and death are one and the same thing. They are both part of existence on earth. There are both small and big kinds death. They are like the bright and the dark side of the moon. Until you realize the underlying unity of the two and comprehend the whole you only want to see its light side and remain afraid of its dark one. However, just like the moon cycle which inevitably leads to the full eclipse at some stage, so do you have to face the reality of your personal light disappearing one day form the surface of the earth. In order to be reborn again in the eyes of the world at a later stage.

LOVE ME FOR A REASON

The Ego is unconsciously aware that love has the power to bestow immortality. And because its greatest fear is to die, it is instinctively seeking after love. However, for as long as the Ego is clinging to the reasons for why it is believing itself to be loved, death remains imminently close and fear remains the dark shadow of the love it is experiencing. Only when the reason for feeling loved is an all-encompassing, unconditional love that is being felt inside your own self, does love make you immortal. Of course, your Ego is still going to die its timely death but because you have released your fears death changes from a threat into a promise.

LOVE LOVE

There is a kind of love which unifies and unites and one that renders us poignantly - at times even painfully - aware of boundaries, limitations and our separateness. The mastership of true loving is to attain the awareness of the first and to henceforth exist in this state even whilst passing through personal experiences of the love that separates.
