RE: Death: what happens when we die? [Dabbing with a Mage episode 83]

in #life8 years ago

That's alright man, you still have a smile on your face, and it's been a rough week for me as well. Your gratefulness is testimony to your magic skills.

The existence of "one source powering everything" can be experienced in altered states of consciousness, for those who have no idea what you are referring to. While we can not be 100% certain about that state being the exact same as death, there are good hints towards that end. And it moves the likelihood for life ending completely at the point of death downwards.

When you see how outside and inside interact with each other, feed back on each other and are ultimately inseparable sides of the same coin - the illusion of having a body apart from nature (a body that is existing in opposition to its surroundings) becomes an insufficient notion to explain life and what this place is. It's like having witnesses a connection that is usually buried.

The drop in the ocean analogy you mentioned still works very well ;)
It might be that the drops never leave the ocean at any time, only that we perceive them to stand on their own as the background of the totality fades in our perception so that we can get lost in all our human mixups, problems and challenges - for a while. Before we remember and get back to the ground of being.

Your vid prompted many ideas here, thanks for the inspiration <3
