Exiting the 3rd Dimension

We all will experience someone we know leaving this plane of existence. But why is it we can get all involved emotionally, cry, become sad and even afraid ONLY FOR the people we know, why not people we don't know? Why not the person who died down the block a few moments ago, or all the homeless children in this world, or those subjected to the terror of war and occupation? Because unless we feel it, it is not defined as real, as part of our world, as valid. We say that our status with people, or emotional involvement is what allows us to "feel" for those who pass. But those feelings are inside of you, and ultimately only convey your relationship to that aspect of life, and your place in it. We associate our fears, feelings, and possessions to the contact we make with reality when someone we know goes beyond. We feel our mortality, and live through their experience.



We can being to imagine ourselves decomposing, feeding insects and becoming nothing. Cheery thought huh? Actually if you think about it, it is cheery, if you leave your emotions out of it.

Well the dying part is sad and probably scary, just because you can't do anything about it. But what comes next? Its like a miracle in reverse. The cells breaking down, the flesh disintegrating ,everything dissolving away until all left is the space you filled in someones heart.



Just as with our faith, relationships, sexuality, emotions we are never taught that death is a part of life that we can develop a healthy perspective of. We haphazardly do things according to our belief that we have maintained. But so many beliefs leave people always feeling fearful and alone, their relationships are lacking as they survive on habit, their sexuality is unbalanced so they think about someone else while with their significant other and death is a concept that becomes harder and harder to grasp.



If you realize all things change then you will hold on to nothing. If you attach to nothing then there is nothing to fear. When you do not fear death you can accomplish anything.
