Risen (Resurrection Sunday, 2026)

"Why do you look for the Living among the dead? 

He is not here, He is risen". 

Luke 24:5-6

Freedom From Attachment

 

Pupil: Do we return to this Earth as we journey from change to change?

MIRDAD: The law of Time is repetition. What once occurred in Time is bound to re-occur again and again. The intervals, in the case of Man, may be long or brief. Depending on the intensity of each Man's desire and will for repetition.

When you pass out of the cycle known as Life into the cycle known as Death and carry with you thirsts unquenched for the Earth and hungers unappeased for her passions, then will the magnet of the Earth draw you again to her bosom. And the Earth shall suckle you, and Time shall wean you, Life after Life and Death after Death, until you wean yourself, once and for all, of your own will and accord.

Pupil: I would be weaned away forever from the Earth. How can I do it, Master?

MIRDAD: By loving the Earth and all her children. When Love is the only residue of all your accounts with the Earth, then will the Earth acquit you of her debt.

Pupil: But Love is attachment, and attachment is bondage.

MIRDAD: Nay, Love is the only freedom from attachment. When you Love everything, you are attached to nothing.

Desirelessness

There are many for whom the Qualification of Desirelessness is a difficult one, for they feel that they are their desires- that if their distinctive desires, their likes and dislikes, are taken away from them, there will be no “self” left. But these are only they who have not seen the Master; in the light of His holy Presence all desires die, but the desire to be like Him. Yet before you have the happiness of meeting Him face-to-face, you may attain Desirelessness. Discrimination has already shown you that the things which most men desire, such as wealth and power, are not worth having. When this is really felt, not merely said, all desire for them ceases. 

Thus far all is simple; it needs only that you should understand. But there are some who forsake the pursuit of earthly aims only in order to gain heaven, or to attain personal liberation from rebirth. Into this error you must not fall. If you have forgotten self altogether, you cannot be thinking when that self should be set free, or what kind of heaven it shall have. Remember that all selfish desire binds, however high may be its objects, and until you have gotten rid of it you are not wholly free to devote yourself to the work of the Master. 

When all desires for self are gone, there may still be a desire to see the result of your work. If you help anybody, you want to see how much you have helped him; perhaps even you want him to see it too, and to be grateful. But this is still desire, and also want of trust. When you pour out your strength to help, there must be a result, whether you can see it or not; if you know the Law you know this must be so. So, you must do right for the sake of the right, not in the hope of reward. You must work for the sake of the Work, not in the hope of seeing the result. You must give yourself to the service of the World because you love it and cannot help giving yourself to it. 

Have no desire for psychic powers; they will come when it is best for you to have them. To force them too soon often brings in its train much trouble; often their possessor is misled by deceitful nature-spirits or becomes conceited and thinks he cannot make a mistake. In any case, the time and strength that it takes to gain them might be spent in work for others. They will come in the course of development - they must come; and if the Master sees that it would be useful for you to have them sooner, He will tell you how to unfold them safely. Until then, you are better without them. 

You must guard, too, against certain small desires which are common in daily life. Never wish to shine, or to appear clever; have no desire to speak. It is well to speak little; better still to say nothing, unless you are quite sure that what you wish to say is true, kind, and helpful. Before speaking think carefully whether what you are going to say has those three qualities; if it has not, do not say it. 

It is well to get used even now to thinking carefully before speaking; for when you reach Initiation you must watch every word, lest you should tell what must not be told. Much common talk is unnecessary and foolish. When it is gossip, it is wicked. So be accustomed to listen rather than to talk. Do not offer opinions unless directly asked for them. One statement of the Qualifications gives them as follows: to Know, to Dare, to Will, and to be Silent; and the last of the four is the hardest of them all.

Another common desire which you must sternly repress is the wish to meddle in other men's business. What another man does, says, or believes is no affair of yours, and you must learn to let him absolutely alone. He has full right to free thought and speech and action, so long as he does not interfere with anyone else. You yourself claim the freedom to do what you think proper; you must allow the same freedom to him, and when he exercises it, you have no right to talk about him.

If you think he is doing wrong, and you can contrive an opportunity of privately and very politely telling him why you think so, it is possible that you may convince him; but there are many cases in which even that would be an improper interference. On no account must you go and gossip to some third person about the matter, for that is an extremely wicked action.

If you see a case of cruelty to a child or an animal, it is your duty to interfere. If you see anyone breaking the law of the country, you should inform the authorities. If you are placed in charge of another person in order to teach him, it may become your duty gently to tell him of his faults. Except in such cases, mind your own business, and learn the virtue of Silence.

Answers to Questions We Should Be Asking

Who Am I?

Where Did I Come From?

Why Am I Here?

What Is My Purpose

Where Am I Going?

When Will I Go?

WHO Am I?

You are a temporary personality that has been generated by an immortal microcosm. Your microcosm is the immortal you. It was once Divine in its nature and consciously connected with Spirit. You, as a physical personality, are a temporary instrument, subject to change and decay. The only part of the personality that is immortal is the Divine Spark located in the center of the microcosm. That location roughly corresponds to the upper portion of the heart. The Divine Spark is not a physical phenomenon. It's influence cannot be expressed physically. It must first be awakened from its slumber.

WHERE Did I Come From? 

You are a part of a huge human life-wave consisting of billions of microcosms.  Speaking microcosmically, our life-wave is Divine and Immortal. However, through a process, we collectively "fell" into this 7th Cosmic Domain, the Physical Universe. To be more precise, we fell in consciousness. We fell so severely that we lost our conscious connection with Spirit. We no longer receive impulses, suggestions, and guidance from the Divine Realms. Instead, we follow our "I", the Ego, which is poorly equipped to make good decisions. Although we have no memory of our Divine origins, the Spark that sleeps within our microcosm remembers, and dreams of a Return.

WHY Am I Here?

The verdict is split. Some teachings maintain that we "fell" due to disobedience. Others maintain that we - as Divine Sparks - were sent on a Journey of Discovery y the Logos. We were to descend in consciousness from the Divine Worlds into the Physical World where we would gain countless experiences over eons of time. At a given point, we were to ascend again, returning to our Divine Home.

WHAT Is My Purpose?

The way Home requires that we raise the vibration of our microcosm to match that of the Divine Realms. We can imagine this as we would imagine a shipwreck resting at the bottom of the sea. The only way to raise the ship to the surface is to attach huge balloons inside and outside of the sunken vessel, inflate the balloons, and allow the ship to float to the surface.

We must purify and cleanse our microcosm, which has been polluted by our flawed and selfish Thinking, Feeling, and Acting here in the Physical World. Once we are free of this negative ballast, we can begin our Journey Home.

WHERE Am I Going?

Home.

WHEN Will I Go.

As stated above, when you have begun the process of awakening your Divine Spark, birthing a new Soul, and purifying your microcosm, you will be ready to walk the Path of Return.

"Something Greater Than Ourselves"

Yesterday, I heard someone speak this familiar phrase:

"I wanted to belong to something greater than myself". 

Frequently, this statement is made about joining the armed forces, a football team, a political campaign, a religious organization, etc.

Although selfishly self-focused, human beings also harbor an innate desire to want to belong to a group of like-minded individuals so that they can lend their efforts to the whole and experience the harmony and brotherhood of a group effort.

"All for One, and One for All".

Where does this powerful urge to "belong/join/incorporate" come from?

The answer becomes clear when we recognize that we, as human beings, are a single body, a single life wave. 

At our deepest core, we are individual Sparks from the same Divine Fire. Cells in a single body.

We have temporarily separated our consciousness from one another to play the game of "Me" and "I" here on Earth.

It is time for us to abandon this game of discord and reassemble as a harmonious  "We".

Deep within, we feel this need to reconnect with one another. But we feel it from an I-centered perspective.

We will have to recognize where this primal urge to "belong" originates from and then abandon the illusion of "Me" and "I" and joyfully return to the "We".

We will then truly experience what it means to belong to something greater than ourselves.

Egyptian Hermeticism - Gnosis Along the Nile

The following presentation is a follow-up to a previous posting of Egyptian Hermeticism entitled "The Sealed Word in the Great Pyramid" which was published on this blog in February of 2022.

The overall theme of this short video presentation is to reveal ancient Egypt's place in human history as a caretaker of the Gnosis and the cradle of Initiation.

YOLO! (You Only Live Once)

 

We "Only Live Once", so   

....we should have as much fun as we can

... we should do whatever makes us happy

... we should not care what happens to ourselves or to others

... we should try to get the most out of life

... we should live like there's no tomorrow

Throw this insipid slogan out the window, close the window, and draw the blinds closed.

You live more than once. In fact, you have lived many thousands of lives, accumulating millions of years of experience along the way.

And when we say "you" we mean "you" as the current and most recent personality to inhabit your microcosm. Your microcosm is the eternal life-system that generates the temporary physical personality. For each new life, a new personality is created.

The purpose of each new personality is to liberate the microcosm from its separated existence and reunite the entire life-system with the Universal Spirit. This is the mission that is entrusted to every new personality that incarnates on Earth. If the personality does not accomplish the mission during its lifetime, it will be dissolved and a new personality will be generated by the microcosm in approximately 1,000 years to make a fresh attempt at Liberation.

This new personality will not be "you" as you know yourself to be now. It will be a completely different personality, perhaps male, perhaps female. The memory of yout experiences will be stored in the microcosm and will become a part of that new personality's subconscious life. Nothing of the  "you" that is reading this post today will remain to return for the next life generated by your micrcosm.

Unless...

Unless you are able to find the true Path of Return in this life and walk this Path with diligence in this life. Detach yourself from duality and discard the illusion of separateness, the heresy that says you are separate from all other human beings. If you can open your heart and expose your Spirit-spark to the Divine radiations emanating from the Universal Spirit, then you will be granted the power to walk this Path. In doing so, you will attain a necessary purification that will lead to a transformation of the ethers that compose your physical, etheric, astral and mental bodies. This transformation will open the way for the birth of a new Soul vehicle that will have the ability to reconnect with Spirit and transform you into a Divine human being. 

But you will have to do the work. You will have to obtain the necessary insight and make a fundamental reversal in your way of living. If you can do these things, then when death (so-called) comes knocking, you will not be dissolved into nothingness but will live on to complete the transformation in a sphere of Life reserved for all those who sincerely walk the Path of Return during physical life.

So, to say that we "only live once" and to then live recklessly is an incredible stupidity born out of ignorance of the Truth. 

The human being is twofold, As physical beings, we are temporary. But our microcosm and the Spirit-spark at its center are eternal.

The task of the temporary human-being (you) is to awaken the sleeping eternal Soul principle (the Spirit-spark) and reconnect with the Divine Universal Spirit (God).

As given to us by Hermes Trismegistus:

"See, my son, this is the guide on the Way that leads to Freedom: you must give up your Body before it dies and overcome the Life of Conflict. Then, if you have won that victory, you will return to the Highest"

Who You Truly Are

 

WHO ARE YOU, TRULY?

We all have a unique inner greatness just waiting to be developed.

It is up to each of us to realize this and foster it into maturity.

Trust your intuition and inner guidance on this Path.

We are here on earth to gather certain experiences, meet certain people

and gain certain insights in order to discover who we truly are.

In fact, it is a re-discovery of what we were and knew before

but have lost among the distractions of material life.

You are a god in embryo

You are a god waiting to be reborn.

The Sealed Word in the Great Pyramid

 

This short presentation explains the symbolism that has been carved into the interior of the Great Pyramid of Giza and reveals the important message that it holds for all of humanity

~ g

Your Task, Your Mission, Your Duty, Your PURPOSE

Despite rumors to the contrary, there is a reason for our being here in the physical world. 

Fame? Fortune? Fun? 

No, no, and no.

Experience?

Well, although experience is a key function of existence in this nature-order, it is not our main purpose. 

We are dual beings. We are both mortal and immortal. The mortal parts of us - the body and the mortal soul - are temporary. They come and go via the ever-turning Wheel of Death and Rebirth. 

The immortal parts of us - the microcosm and the divine Spirit-spark at its center - are eternal. They survive physical death. They persist and accompany us throughout all of our incarnations. In fact, it is the microcosm that "incarnates", not the personality. The microcosm creates a new personality for each new incarnation. We are merely the latest personality to inhabit our microcosm.

Our immortal microcosms are trapped in a world of mortality. They have been estranged from their divine origins for millions of years. The only way of escaping this mortal prison is via the personality that is created for each life. 

It is the task of the human personality to reestablish contact with Divine Source while on Earth. If the personality does not accomplish this task, it will be dissolved via the agency of decay that we call 'death'. The mortal soul will also vanish but at a slower rate. Eventually, all that remains will be the emptied microcosm and the immortal Spirit-spark. In approximately 700 to 1,000 years, a new personality will be created and charged with the same task: Liberation from Matter.

Strive to obtain insight (self-knowledge) into the truth about yourselves and about the Path of Return that is waiting for you. Reconnect with the immortal Spark of Light that smolders within your heart. The Spark needs you to fan it into a Flame - a Flame that will purify your microcosm, immortalize the personality, and free your consciousness from the Prison of the Senses.

This is your Purpose! This is your reason for living! This is the Goal! This is the Great Work that you must accomplish while in the flesh.

Give

 

"Seek to uphold yourself and others. Share gladly what you acquire and give to all those in need without asking questions, for you are only giving them a gift from God, since nothing belongs to you. What you acquire is also a gift from God. 

Give, therefore, and God will give to you again." 

Karl von Eckartshausen

Arrival in the Hall of Judgment

 

[QUOTING]

Awful is the Great Day of Judgement at its dawning in the Netherworld. The soul stands naked in the Hall of Judgement, nothing can now be hidden. Hypocrisy is no avail; to maintain goodness when the soul reveals its own repulsiveness is futile. To mumble empty ritual is foolishness. To call upon gods who have no existence is a waste of time.

In the Hall of Judgement the wrong-doer is judged. On that day and henceforth, his qualities shall form his food. His soul, soft as clay upon Earth, is hardened and set into shape according to its moulding. The Balances are adjusted.

One arrives. The Forty-Two Virtues are his assessors. Shall he dwell among Beauty as a godling or be given over as a captive to the Keeper of Horrors, to dwell among vile things under a merciful mantle of darkness?

One arrives. The twisted body, tormented on Earth, and the ugly face have gone, discarded at the Portal. He strides through the Hall in radiance, to pass into the Place of Everlasting Beauty.

One arrives. Now no earthly body shields the horror which is the true likeness of the evil-doer upon Earth. He runs from the Light which he cannot tolerate, and hides himself in the shadows near the Place of Terror. Soon he will be drawn to his compatible place among the Dismal Company.

One arrives. He has been upright and a just one. His failings and weaknesses were of little account. This upright man fears nothing, for he was welcomed among the Bright Ones and shall go unhampered among the Everlasting Lords.

One arrives. He trembles before the Unseen Judges, he is lost, he knows nothing, earthly knowledge and confidence are left behind. The Balance drops, he sees his soul and recognizes his true self, he rushes into merciful darkness. It enfolds him and dark arms embrace him, drawing him into the terrible gloom, into the Place of Dark Secret Horrors.

One arrives. She graced the court with beauty, men sang of her loveliness and grace. Now, as when a mantle is removed, all is discarded, it is the time of unveiling. Who can describe the lustful thoughts and secret unclean deeds which fashioned the horror coming through the Portal? There is a hush among the compassionate.

One arrives. On Earth she was pitied by the compassionate and scorned by the hard-hearted. There her lot was degradation and servitude, privation and sacrifice, few and meager were the gifts from life. Yet she triumphed. Now she comes forward surrounded by brilliance, even the Shining Ones are dazzled by her beauty.

One arrives. The twisted face and pain-wracked body of the cripple have been left behind. A kind and loving soul dwelt imprisoned within its confines. Now the relieved spirit steps forward into the Great Hall, unencumbered and free, glorious to behold.

One arrives. The splendid body which graced Earth remains there, an empty, decaying thing. The naked soul enters the Everlasting Halls. It is a deformed, misshapen thing fit only to dwell in the merciful gloom of the place with which it has compatible affinity.

One arrives. Neither goodness or wickedness bears down upon the scales. The balances remain straight. The soul departs to the twilight borderland between the Region of Light and the Region of Darkness.

O Great Lords of Eternity, who once were in the flesh, even as I, hear not the outpourings of an over-burdened and sorrowful heart. For who am I to presume to call upon the Great God of All? Who am not without wickedness and weak in spirit. I have filled my heart with knowledge of the Secret Writings but still I fear the Judgement. Therefore, Great Lords of Eternity, I call upon you who once walked the Earth, even as I, and who, therefore, understand the failings and weaknesses of men.

I am not weak in my standing with earthly things, but I am weak beside the Greater Beings. Will I, too, ever be worthy of the grandeur of the Eternal Mansions? O Great Beings, whose nature is beyond understanding, grant me just a spark of the Eternal Wisdom, that it might light my soul and kindle the flame of Immortal Life.

What is the destined fate of a man who knows the existence of things beyond his understanding? I see but I do not know, therefore I am afraid. Man can swim against the current towards the bank, but he needs a helping hand to pull him ashore when he is exhausted from the struggle.

This is the fate of man. He must strive for that which he cannot attain. He must believe in that which he cannot prove. He must seek that which he cannot find. He must travel a road without knowing his destination. Only thus, can the Purpose of Life be fulfilled.

Man may believe he knows his destiny, but he cannot be assured with certainty; in no other way can he fulfill it. In this way alone can the soul be properly awakened to flower with its full potential. This alone he may know: The purpose of all human life is a Goal so glorious it surpasses all earthly understanding.

We may visualize our individual goals as we will, it is ordained that we have this freedom. How close or how far we are from Reality is of little consequence; what is, is. He who seeks a non-existent destination will, nevertheless, get somewhere. He who seeks not at all will get nowhere. Earthly life will fulfill itself without attainment.

From "The Book of the Scrolls: Chapter 13 - The Scroll of Ramkat" -- The Kolbrin

[END QUOTING]

Upon physical death, the material body is discarded, the life within withdraws with the man's remaining soul vehicles. Alive as ever, the person now travels to realms beyond the veil. These realms are invisible and unseen to most while we are in the body. Upon transition, the eyes of our soul-vehicle are opened.

Every soul that passes over is subject to the Great Day of Judgement, for it must be determined where the new arrival will spend his or her next eternity. How is this judgement carried out? What is the criteria? Who stands as judge?

It is the overall vibrational quality of the soul that is examined. The essence of all thinking, willing and acting while in the earth-sphere is collected and retained within the mortal soul of the human being. It is this record that we carries with us when we cross over. 

At that point, the earthly charade is over. The soul stands naked in the Great Hall. Those things that were easily hidden from the physical eyes of men are exposed here for all to see. Pending the outcome of the Weighing of the Heart, the soul will be dispatched to a region that vibrates in harmony with its frequency. 

In essence and in truth, we judge ourselves.

As noted in the above extract, those who were apparently "nothing" on Earth may, depending upon the life led, may appear in radiance on The Other Side. Those who were beautiful, wealthy, brilliant or celebrated on Earth will find that no one cares a whit about those things once they have entered the Great Hall. All things earthly are left behind. We are left with only the fruit of our actions.

This is why the character of every thought, desire and action is vitally important to each one of us. When the earthly life meets its lawful end, we remain alive. Our consciousness is able to perceive the reflection-sphere that was veiled from us while in the physical. It is then that many will say, "Wait! Let me do it over again! I didn't know!". But it will be too late.

Those who manage to Seek in the right direction and are able to locate the Pearl of Great Price - the Gnosis - will not have to stand before judgement in the Great Hall. The vibration of their soul-vehicles will attract it to a region of safety that is not a part of the reflection-sphere: Shamballa, the Eternal Oasis.

Live consciously. Seek unceasingly. Everything we do on Earth, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, has the aim of trying to help us find our way to Shamballa. Do not wait until you cross over and arrive in the Great Hall of Judgment to understand this. 

Understand it now.

Happy (Not) New Year!

 

Those who have recognized that the designation of 1 January 2022 as "New Year's Day" means nothing are correct. 

I was going to post the following last night but I changed my mind, thinking that no one would really care. I am pleased to report that I was wrong about that.

[UN-POSTED MESSAGE]

It's New Year's Eve 2021. So, what does that mean?

That means that today is the day before tomorrow.

There is no new beginning here, just a continuation of what is, a rollover.

January is not even the first month of the year. That designation goes to March.

January 1st is also not the first day of the "new" year. That designation goes to March 20th or 21st, or whatever happens to be the date of the spring equinox.

The above can be supported by partially translating the names of the months themselves:

September = 7th month - 'Sept' means seven.
October = 8th month - 'Oct' means eight
November = 9th month - 'Nov' means nine
December = 10th month - 'Dec' means ten

February is actually the 12th and final month of the year. An Earth-year is calculated as 365.25 days which is why every fourth or "leap" year, a full day is added to the month of February to "true up" or "make whole" the dangling 1/4 days of the previous three years.

Not sure of the reason why the Roman Empire chose to support this misalignment in the calendar, but the smell of shenanigans is in the air.

With that in mind, Happy January 1st ... the start of the 11th month of the year.

"Dying is like waking from a dream"

In the moments following death, we will immediately realize that we have been dreaming all along. 

A very special dream. 

A very real dream. 

A dream with experiences and consequences.

So, navigate your dream well.

~ g

Choose Courage

 

The last few posts have focused upon death (so-called) and fear of same. It was felt that the times that we are presently experiencing required that we take a sober and objective look at this specter that hovers over our lives although it hides in the shadows of our consciousness.

We all know that we are going to die. That is a certainty that we shove into a box in the attic of our consciousness and cover with a blanket. We shut the door and do not visit that attic if we can help it. 

But the shadow follows us. We never face it, so we do not learn to understand it. As human beings, we tend to fear that which we do not understand. Many fear death (so-called) because they do not know what will happen after we transition. Again, that which we do not know of, we fear.

The prior posts were published in an effort to present the truth to all who may have ears to hear. The truth is that we have nothing to fear from death (so-called). 

Death is like taking off all of our clothes, opening a door, walking through that door, and then closing the door behind us. Anyone who walks into the room will see our discarded clothing and will conclude that we are no longer there. But we are behind the door, alive as ever, and unburdened by the heavy clothing that we once wore.

Life is a continuum. Nothing ever dies. Things merely transform. For all of us, each life is a new page in a very thick book. So, keep these things in mind for the future.

The global circumstances of the past two years have been purposely designed and orchestrated to tap into our fear of death and stir up uncertainty, doubt, anxiety, worry and unreasonable dread. It is well known by those who control the activities of the world that human-beings do not react well to fear. When humans are in fear, most will look to others for direction and leadership. If the wrong leaders are in place, disaster can result.

Due to our unreasonable fear of death, the world is now following dictates that do not have our best interests at heart. Instead of resisting, we are complying. Instead of questioning, we are accepting. Instead of acting, we are allowing ourselves to be led.

It has been famously said that Earth is the Planet of Choice. Everything on this planet happens due to choice. If we are dominated by others, then it is by choice. If we are tricked and fooled by the crafty, it is by choice. If we are coerced into doing things that we know in our heart are not right, then we have allowed those things to happen, again by choice.

During these critical times, we must choose whether we are going to allow ourselves to be ruled by Fear or by Courage. We must choose whether we will use our God-given reasoning abilities to question the false narrative that is being shoved down our throats or if we will merely accept the lies of our "authorities", who are nothing but wolves in sheep's clothing.

What belies all of our uncertainty is the fear of death. These last few posts have attempted to remind you that there is nothing to fear from death. Whether by violence, by old age or by manufactured flu. We will continue to Live, just as we always have. 

Once we discard the fear of death, those who control us will lose their control over us. This is what the Gnosis comes to share with us. Fear is in the mind. If we focus our consciousness on holding onto something that is designed to be temporary - such as physical existence - we will remain in a fearful state-of-consciousness. But if we focus our consciousness on the Immortal Spirit-spark that burns within the center of our life-system and its Eternal presence, we will come to realize that there is nothing to fear, that there has never been anything to fear, and that there will never be anything to fear...for all Eternity.

Choose Courage.

Where Is This Leading?

You may have noticed that the most recent posts have focused upon the subject of "death" (so-called) in one way or another. I imagine that you are also wondering why?

I will try to explain in the next post.

The Worst That Could Happen

What is it about death (so-called) that causes us to fear it so much? What is the worst that can happen?

1. Pain

2. Missing Our Loved Ones

3. Unfinished Business

4. Failure to Find the Path

Let's take a quick look at these factors.

1. Pain 

Fear of the pain that we associate with death is something that we try to push to the back of our minds. But this pain is evident all around us, we see it happening everywhere to our dying brothers and sisters, so naturally, we assume that when our incarnation is winding down, pain will be our lot as well. 

Generally, physical pain will accompany us as we near the end of our incarnation if it is part of our karma to experience it. For most of us, the end will arrive quietly. Our consciousness will withdraw its focus on the physical plane and relax the magnetic attraction that binds the etheric/physical particles of the body together.

If you want to know what death (so-called) is like, then simply monitor yourself as you fall asleep at night. As your eyes close and you relax, at one moment you will be physically present and in the blink of an eye you seamlessly transition into a blessed sort of unconscious state. Your consciousness withdraws from the physical plane and intensifies its focus on the astral planes of the planet, where you have experiences during the night that we call "dreams".  Your perception has moved from one reality to a different reality.

There is an old expression that states: "Sleep and Death are like brothers". There is much truth to that axiom.

Finally, for those who may have to experience pain at the end, medical science has created powerful anti-pain medications that will numb the nerves and block the pain messages that the body sends to the brain. These ones will not feel much at all.

In cases of violence or accident, there are usually karmic reasons for incarnations to end in such uncomfortable ways.  The reasons are revealed to us when we reach The Other Side.

Take care of the body. Purify your thoughts and emotions. Live a life of Love and Service to others. Do not become attached to the things of this world. Non-attachment will make it easier for us to let go when it comes time for us to transition from the physical plane.

2. Missing Our Loved Ones

The primary reason for this fear usually does not hit us until we are very near the end. While we are alive and healthy, we ignore our loved ones, we mistreat them, we take them for granted, etc. To avoid feelings of regret at the end, we should show Love to our friends and family every moment that we can. Never leave a friend or loved one without showing them that you love them, either by word or by deed. Treat each moment with a loved one as if it were the last time you were going to see them. This will help to prevent these fears from arising. 

3. Unfinished Business

There are so many things that we are juggling on a daily basis. We toil to create favorable lives for ourselves and our loved ones. We plan for the future. When confronted with our transition from the physical plane, we fear leaving so many plans unrealized, projects unfinished, hopes and dreams unfulfilled. 

It helps to get our affairs in order in the here and now, even if we are in excellent health or in the prime of life. This is the best we can do for those we leave behind. As for future plans and unfinished projects, these things should not be of serious concern to us. When we reach the Other Side, all of these things that we think are so important when our consciousness was focused on physical plane reality will be seen in their proper perspective.

Live fully in the Now. As the Christ stated "....do not worry about Tomorrow, for Tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own".

4. Failure to Find the Path

This is actually not a true Fear that occurs to us as we approach death (so-called) because most human-beings are completely unaware that there is a Path that will remove us from the Wheel of Death and Rebirth and will sever our obligation to incarnate over and over again. 

This Path can only be located if we open our heart centers and allow the immortal divine Spirit-spark to reconnect with the Universal Spirit. This re-linking will inhale the Living Waters of the Universal Spirit into the life-system of the human-being, purifying and transforming the human-being from Man to Manas, the state of the Original, Divine Human-being.

But as it is said, "You can't miss what you have never had". Since we do not have knowledge of the Path, we do not regret in not having found it. When we reach the Other Side and things that were hidden to us during physica life are revealed, we will understand that we missed our True Purpose while we were on Earth and that we must return yet again, in a new body, in similar or different circumstances, and in total forgetfulness, to try to find the Path once more. 

We will remain on the Wheel of Death and Rebirth until we find our True Purpose while on Earth, until we find the Path of Return and follow it to a Good End.

Thus, the fear that we are least aware of should actually be the one of greatest concern.

In conclusion, it is not Death that we fear. It is the Fear of Death that we fear.

Contemplate the first three Fears and try to see if you can find any wisdom within them. 

Contemplate the fourth Fear and see if it inspires you to find the Path that leads to freedom before you put the body aside.
