The Big “D”

DEATH

What if death wasn’t so scary or so final? What if death wasn’t as scary as us humans make it out to be?

Death is a reality. The death of the human self happens to everyone. It can happen at anytime. It happens to the young, to the old, to the healthy and to the sick. No one is promised tomorrow or next week. Maybe you will get some warning that it is coming for you or maybe you will not.

Death has much to teach us human beings.

I suppose you could ignore it or avoid all thoughts of death completely – but that would be an unhealthy way of living because all that ignoring or avoiding really does is feed the fears of the mind.

Contemplating death is actually quite a healthy way of facing the fear of death. Death is the single most greatest teacher in a humans life and it is a once in a lifetime opportunity to experience something everyone has the most questions about.

Death helps one pay attention. You could say death takes life away but step back a moment and look at the bigger picture – couldn’t death actually give more meaning to life?

Imagine how present you would be today if you knew your tomorrow wasn’t going to come for you?

Below is the direct quote from Michael Singer’s book, The Untethered Soul, that I mentioned in the video above;

“Let’s say you’re living life without the thought of death, and the Angel of Death comes to you and says, “Come, it’s time to go.” You say, “But no. You’re supposed to give me a warning so I can decide what I want to do with my last week. I’m supposed to get one more week.” Do you know what Death will say to you? He’ll say, “My God! I gave you fifty-two weeks this past year alone. And look at all the other weeks I’ve given you. Why would you need one more? What did you do with all those?” If asked that, what are you going to say? How will you answer? “I wasn’t paying attention…I didn’t think it mattered.” That’s a pretty amazing thing to say about your life. Death is a great teacher.” ~~Michael Singer
