What is death?

[Thought Art]

I don't find Leo's video on death making sense to me.

If I commit suicide, or die of old age is the outcome of death any different? Does God judge you by the nature of your Death? When you die do you get to choose what happens next?

[RMQualtrough]

It is the end of experience through this finite mind you talk to me through. You will have other experiences after your death but your current finite mind will not be present to know them.

[Moksha]

One of the most honest expressions about death, which resonates with me:

The essence of who you are is beyond death. That comes out of inner realization. I don’t know much beyond that. You’ll have to wait and see when you actually die.

- Eckhart Tolle

Reincarnation, near death experiences, ghosts, etc. are all possible, but still they are bound by relative reality. Ultimately, does it matter? We are all the same Consciousness, dreaming, in different states of awareness. When you realize that, the rules reveal the game itself.

[Terell Kirby]

Death at its core is an illusion, as is all of reality.

You exist beyond death but also can never touch death for true no self is no longer any experience at all. But experience ultimately comes back online after this. Seeing this and having lasting insight on this is only done by the fully enlightened. 

[Matthew85]

What we think of as physical death is simply a shift of focus of your consciousness. You are currently focusing your consciousness here to explore the game of being a human. There is no god to judge you. Yes, it is always your choice. It takes a very strong intention and focus for you to be here. Think of the analogy of wanting to explore the deepest parts of some of our oceans. That won't happen without a very strong intention and desire to do it.

the infinite cannot experience the finite but through you, in fact poor thing cannot experience at all

and experience right? is fun

so all this soon ends but in the meantime enjoy

soon enough you'll be back to the boring ol non-experiencing

launching your next out-ing

I think people also vastly underestimate the power and potential of duality.

Just because this current game is sometimes a challenge, doesn't mean there aren't finite experiences out there that are mind-blowingly amazing... even within duality.

Yeah, the fact that we don't know how we got here, or know where we are going is a problem for me. What the fuck is this?

I don't think another 50 years on this planet, with all these fake and lying people is something I can do. I just want to be a musician, but I am too scared. I just want to make music without all this stress and fear. 

Sometimes I think I would like to die, I just wish we knew more about it. I am grateful for being a human, but I think I could have played my cards better when I was 15. Now I am 25 and I feel like I am just getting older and so much of my potential is gone. Not sure if it's worth wasting 50 years here as some mediocre neurotic. No one is really your friend in this life, that is something I am learning. From your family to your roommate everyone lies. Everything you think will make you happy either doesn't or is taken away from you. 

I am scared of things like cancel culture, etc.. I don't know what to do. 

I am so tired of all this responsibility...

God realization requires that one take full responsibility for manifesting reality.

You will need an attitude adjustment to live a good life, it is not possible through living in fear and blaming others.

Life is what you make of it, you hold all the cards.

[Thought Art]

@Terell Kirby I do not hold all the cards. If you haven't notice, you have very little freedom.

Part of living a good life is the relationships you form with others. But, people are lying assholes. Not everyone.. anyway. These are thoughts for my journal. Take care.

@Thought Art

When you wake up from a dream, whatever transpired didn’t. 

[Thought Art]

@Nahm Do you mean through death? Because, people talk about waking up... yet you are still here. 

[Nahm]

@Thought Art

That’d be ‘what transpired’, but didn’t.   Exactly like a dream and waking up. “Death” is dream content. ‘You & here’, dream content, which there isn’t. 

[Thought Art]

@Nahm Well, I am done with fear... If I am here I want to enjoy my life. But, there is so much shit inside and outside of me sometimes. 

[Nahm]

@Thought Art

‘You & fear’, dream content which isn’t. Creator-creating-creation. Dreamer-dreaming-dream.

Ahaha, well. It surely seems more real than what is.

I recommend you to focus on making this current life(dream) Paradise-like. 

Well, now you gotta figure out what's required for you to make this happen.

What comes to mind?

Tomorrow is in your hands. You are the Now. 

What's stopping you from actualizing Heaven in this current 'dream world'?

What's stopping 'Heaven on Earth' to become your Reality?
