Question: "Ishvara,
what role does death play in this?"
Ishvara: In
death, one outlives the role of the limited physical structure.
Death is not an end. In death, that which cannot speed up and
move to a higher level, drops off. We drop off the body. But then
the hollow-space-within is no longer confined by physical dimension,
and it immediately flows out into the whole of reality and becomes
all of it. So it's a grand adventure. Yet if you don't have any
realization of this now, that grand adventure means nothing to
you. But when you start realizing how everything is connected,
then you get the full force of The Consciousness with no parameters.
Then you merge with and become everything, and death no longer
has any sting. There is no fear.
You
are The Consciousness. You are already perfect. But you have concepts
and beliefs that limit your realization of that perfection. And
so what we are doing is eliminating concepts and beliefs so that
you can discover and experience your perfection. The Consciousness
is simply experiencing itself as you, yet we miss so much of this
experience because we become superstitious, we become frightened,
we close off, we shut down, and so we don't have any fun. We become
separate and alone and fearful. In this fearful state, the conditional
mind begins to fabricate beliefs and concepts in order to perpetuate
itself.
What
I am saying is not something I ask anyone to believe. I am simply
putting out possibilities that can inspire people to move beyond
their concepts and beliefs and to see whether those possibilities
might resonate with the hollow space and mean something. My job
is to express this feeling-knowing as best I can, and I am constantly learning how to express it.
I am continually looking for better ways to express it, with more
clarity, more exactness, and more allowing. Back
