Death = Change


“THE COSMIC CYCLE PROVES LIFE IS ETERNAL. Man dies not; he changes. “Death” is the word used to indicate the change.
 
UNDER THE LAW OF THE COSMIC CYCLE, INVISIBLE VAPOR BECOMES VISIBLE ICE, AND ICE RETURNS TO VAPOR. THERE IS NO END. COSMIC PROCESSES WORK IN CYCLES, AND ALL THINGS ARE ETERNAL.”
 
From Man Does Not Die by H. Hotema

If there's one thing everyone needs to learn, understand and apply:

There is no such thing as death. The Universe, emanated from The Living All, is a living Universe. No part of it can "die".

Man's mis-education has taught him to fear death, to consider the dissolution of the physical body as the definitive "end of life". This is so far from being true that it would be laughable if it weren't so tragic. Death, so-called, is simply a transition from one state-of-consciousness to another. It is like being in a room, opening a door into another room and closing that door behind you. You still exist, both rooms still exist, only you are no longer present in one of the rooms.

If man realized that death is not "the end", perhaps he would live life differently. If he knew that he was destined to return to earth-life again due to the causes he puts into motion during the current life, perhaps he would be more careful with his Thinking, Feeling and Willing in the current life. Perhaps he would live life consciously and intelligently, instead of blindly crashing through it like a bull in a china shop. Perhaps, instead of chasing ephemeral things like money, sex, power and possessions, he would take the time to stop and contemplate the meaning of his existence and in so doing, find the purpose behind our existence, the One Goal of Humanity.

There is no death. This has to be understood and accepted by man. If not, everything else in his Seeking will make no sense at all. What we call "life" here on earth is but the temporary extension of a personality into physical matter; a dip in the pool, so to speak. Symbolically speaking, we take a dip, splash around, learn new swimming strokes, or learn nothing and perhaps even drown.

Each life lived is like another pearl added to a string of pearls. Each incarnation, like another page in a very large book. This must become clear not just in the mind of the Seeker, but in the minds of all men.

There is no death. There is only change.
