Death happens. It’s what makes life possible.
Our lives are much different than we can ever understand with thought or feeling alone. Still, just a consideration of death and life can yield concepts approaching understanding of everything, approaching enlightenment.
Our mind is what sets us apart from the rest of the universe. This apartness is at the heart of much of our pain and all of our suffering because it is not true. In reality, everything that is the universe is still here, no less, no more. It’s the same everything, it just seems completely different.
In every bit of us are the beginnings of the universe. In every bit of us are bits of mom, bits of dad, bits of humanity.
The same is true of everyone you meet and in everything you can see or feel. We are inextricably connected to everything and everyone.
When we are born, the universe did not change or shift at all. The same is true when we die, the universe does not alter or change course whatsoever. The universe just is. And, we are part of that is, alive or dead.
Every bit of the past no longer exists. The past is all the present is. The present contains all that will be all futures. Those futures will all ultimately be called a present.
Search for deeper understanding. It is there.
Challenge the assumptions at the heart of your every day.
Everything that ever was is in this day. Everything that will ever be is in this day.
We can unleash the potential of right now.
We have a mind. We have a heart. We have a body. What do you want to do with it?
