Dealing with Death

Death cannot be the enemy,
because it is part of existence.

Existence has given birth to you.
Existence is mothering you.

And when you die,
you simply go back to your original source,
to rest and to be born again.

There is no need to be afraid .

You will not die,
you will only disappear
like a snowflake
in the pure air.

Your form will disappear
into formlessness,
the river will disappear
into the ocean,
but it will not cease to exist.
It will even become wider, vaster,
it becomes oceanic.

This is very true and its really a great feeling to know that you understand a lot. Also there is more to which and that more will give us meaning of being ocean.

We are ocean orignially and at present also. We dont need to realise GOD to become part of the the source. We could all the time feel the presence of Ocean . And this is what saints always remind us.
Also to feel connected with the GOD we should realise its existence. That can be provided by a true spiritual teacher. You need to see GOD for realisation. and then the cycle of Birth to death and death to birth is understood better. That also help us in understnding the world beyond birth and death and that is the place where there is no sorrow , no pain and no suffering. That realisation can happen now even before death comes. This would be the real meaning of life. Only few peple graced by GOD gets that position but never mind be on that path and some day or another GOD will be pleased with the deeds and would give that beautiful gift which he has given in past to lots of people at different times.

Good to see that you are on right track. Be positive and accept what GOD has offered at the moment. There is no other way.

dEaTh as they say is the gateway to THE lIfE !
For me the real death occurs
when i forget my realself...
Who am I ? what am i here for ?
what's the purpose life has for me ?

Are we not shittin around ?
WaTCHING our time FLY BY THROUGH tHE wInDoW....

Seems like self consciousness is somewhat linked to the bleeding pain one got from her,Once,loved one !

For me >>> the death doesn't mean physical death of this mortal body

it's all about forgetting the supremacy of the soul

Forgetting someone who dwells in the heart of every living being...

Going by these thoughts who would would i fight with ?

No one .....

As I only see Rabbi everywhere !!

Omnipresent is what they,IS HOW I, NOW, TRUELY BELIEVE
