Death

[Samson]

Its scary although i no longer fear the opportunity. I don't fear death, just pain or the process unless immediate.
I have strong faith in the afterlife, and have talked to many and have had personal experiences in the
otherworld. I look as it as the chance to shed this body, and will reuinte with loved ones in a personally created awareness.

What is a personally created awareness'?

sort of like your own universe, or an astral holodeck

How do you see/feel about Death?

I've done a lot of death contemplations/ponderings over the years. I find this very positive to ensure you are directing your life as you would like.

Best death meditation/pathworking (not going beyond death) is to see yourself on your death bed. What feelings and sensations arise? What regrets etc? This, once gone beyond the social conditioning/fears etc. is very powerful for realising where you want to go with your life and what is important/not important.

Good LHP teaching on death is that we are (essence of us/atman I think) composed of multitude of 'cells' that are returned to a central pool/the universe at death. If you know yourself (and these cells) you can, through magical work keep these together (I think through creation of astral/spiritual bodies) and remain as an intact being.

This does not relate to personality. Personality, when examined is seen as part of the current life and that only, with a little bit of 'past life' (as in, memories of the cells) impetus.

Although everyone hates and fears death,still it's inevitable and no one will "dodge" it.
knowing that...i think we have to prepare for what's after death..because death is the end of life and mortality...and the beginning of after life with it's immortal state.
in islam we have a concept said to us by our prophet : "work for your life as you'll never die,,and work for your afterlife as you'll die tomorrow".

Thats why its a good idea to make friends with the archetype of death, scorpio energies, from death comes life. We are bound by time in physical bodies, chronos, saturn, destroyed by mars but aries brings spring, life.

Anyhow, at the moment of death, I wonder if it's not similar to that of birth... where you aren't really fully aware, kind of like when we fall asleep at night, it's like a slipping away that we aren't fully aware of, it just happens. If our memories are based in our brain, rather than in our spirit or soul, then I suppose it wouldn't matter, because once it happens we'd forget anyway, and thus it would be like it never really happened..

I think death is pretty cool. God put it there for a reason. The mathmatical value of realizing God is total peace and understanding, and there is saddness in death. So much right now that I believe we can evolve and come to understand death, not as a punishment, but something to learn from........ But, here where I live death is often feared and not understood.

So I try to understand death. Death can be looked at like this: Death is negative, Life is positive. These are crude terms, but if you want to put a value to the essence of what we feel about these things this is just a way. Yin is negative and black. Yang is positive and white. Positive and negative to not necessarily mean good and bad, although good can be seen as positive and bad can be seen as negative. Etc. So you can pick and choose through these alike values how to see death, when you realize that it is all God. And that God is trying to teach us something about all life. Just because we are in a way one with God, as I believe at the center of all of us is God,
.

If we are all god then we wouldnt need jesus to bridge that gap we would be jesus, but that is another secret. I agree it is an attachment to a value but not inherently good/bad as from death a spiritual birth, from birth a spiritual death

I feel that death is kind of scary for me. I have had lots of bad experiences on the astral and other nonphysical planes. I just hope that when I really die, that I will not be worried because I will not have the anchor body to come back to but will be able to fly around and be free for perhaps a very long amount of time. So, outer body experiencing was ok, I just always know that I would be physical in a little while. I truly would be so happy to exist somewhere in the nonphysical with friends and stuff. I am learning though to experience the extacy of after life freedom on the earth plane now, however.

What would be really cool is that if one could custom design his own coffin. Death is just so personal and initiatory in so many ways. I would like many colors painted on it, like have my sister do some artwork on it. Then I would add gold egyptian writing and stuff...) I think it would be cool.



Everlasting life would be awesome as well, on this earth plane. One would really learn a lot. Like, I wonder if like maybe some saints or something who are so blessed with God's miracles, if they could live large amounts of time on earth undetected really, like traveling through different demensions on earth too. I would accept that as a possibility if I could be able to do it.

This I find to be a very interesting subject, because it does put allot of people in fear when the thought of death comes to mind. When close friends, or loved ones pass on we wonder what if it was me, or what would happen if it was me. Am I going togo to heaven, or hell?

I analyze the fear of death as nothing more than the fear of the unknown,or the fear of losing everything we have an emotional attachment to. The fear of death is nothing more than ignorance towards a greater understanding.

Mortal death is nothing more than death of the ego, but rebirth of the eternal, and everlasting soul.

What if I was to tell you that you already have eternal life?

Death is like any part of life. There is simply change of circumstance. You move onto a place where you don't have to stay in this shell. Even at the beginning or rather closely after death i believe you can still have emotions, or even remember many facts of what was going on in your life. And then it begins to loss meaning, the thoughts and feelings begin to be less important then moving onto the next stage of your astral / soul journey. Probably some sort of cleansing happens after that, so that you can re-enter the universe on the physical plane again. Death has always been a natural part of life, if we look at animals and how they treat it, some part of us might understand that there is no reason to be alarmed, or fear it or whatever else there is. I think these sorts of feelings come from an ego perspective which the western world has begun to enhance emphasis on and some religious views. It is and shall be until things change yet again.
