I remember leo posting something in his blog a while ago about immortality. I'm Paraphrasing here "the key to immortality is being so present that you can not die". Or something from this ilk.
And I had this insight today as I was struggling with my daily dose of existential crisis around fear of death..
what is death? Iike literally what the fuck is death? Enough fooling around, what is it?
And I Contemplated this using direct experience. Not using logic.. Or dichotomies.. Or human knowledge etc
But from a first-person direct approach..
Death is literally ... "Something bad that is going to happen to you in the future"..that's it.
And what exactly is that? A thought happening now. Nothing more. Eh?
You might say "yeah but of course im going to die someday"...
No!.. you don't know that. Forget about all your buts and ofcourses. Death is in the future. There is no future or yesterday. Quite literally.
I realized that If firmly grasp the significance of this insight it would make me immortal. Now this is not possible without losing my mind a little bit and becoming insane in a sense. Because That's the only thing that makes me afraid of death.. Is the cultural societal brainwashing that death is a real thing.
@Leo Gura am I on the right track here? Or am I losing my goddam mind?
