Life and death form an endless circle. The waters of the river of life flow endlessly. No one knows when they began or when they will end.
Death is the end of your finite body, but it is simply a shift, a movement, in the world of energy. The face of the moon you see in the sky changes every night, but it is the same whole moon regardless of the light that shines on it. The sun is always there, even when you cannot see it on the other side of the earth. Energy is not visible, but your individuated energy from the source of life, your soul, is always there. How it looks, with or without a body, is all that changes.
With death, the body and soul welcome another birth. The body returns to its source, the earth, and is reborn as the new life it supports. The soul also reunites with its source, the great void.
Life and death each have own blessings. The blessings of life may be obvious; you can experience them for yourself right now. The blessings of death are murky, as they lie beyond a veil. However, some blessings of death can be experienced while the body and brain are still alive, for the transience of existence that death brings awakens a thirst for
eternal truth. The attempt to quench this thirst opens the door to the world of energy, especially the soul that links life and death.
Sensing energy, sensing your soul, all transience transcends into
one eternal now.
