Dying and Being Born At
the instant of death, our four lower
centers will
stop. Our thoughts will vanish. Our emotions,
positive and negative, will evaporate.
No more blinking or hunger or breath.
A complete absence of ambition and movement.
Only one thing will have the possibility
of continuing across the threshold of
death. Related thoughts
Death
takes everything from us but our moments
of presence. What you do with your life
before death will determine what you do
with your life after death. Man
has the possibility of existence after
death. But possibility is one thing and
realization of the possibility is
quite a different thing. It
is possible to attain a durable change
of being, such change as may possibly
survive after death, only if we use the
perfected methods of school-work. Otherwise
our attempts are too scattered. Death
is only interesting in relation to the
search for what cannot die. Question:
After death, do we disappear or continue?
Answer: Right now, are you disappearing
or continuing? I
have seen the deathless Triumphant, and
the Morning Star who walks divinely among
them. You
cannot expect to come into that world
if you walk around like a sleepwalker
in a dream. This
moment is a moment of resurrection. It
is a naïve man who thinks we are
not engaged in a fierce battle. One
thing is certain, that life flies; one
thing is certain, and the rest is lies. If
we still do not know life, how can we
expect to know death? |
