Live Death
Why do you always think of death as the end of life?
Can you not see it is the door that connects two lives?
Come with me, let me show you.
See that door behind you? You’ve just left that behind you.
Now turn round and face the one in front of you. Go on, walk in.
There, you’ve just passed from one life to another.
Last night you talked about that girl in hospital. How she stopped breathing
and her heart stopped ticking. You shed a fatal tear.
Can you not see that she only died an outer life?
She still lives inside.
Her sweet soul is now winging its way from one body to the body of the universe.
That girl is experiencing the climax of life.
So live death. Love death. Live it from the inside
and you will banish all fear of it.
