Death explained from mystic’s point of view.

Quote ‘seeing death as the end of life is like seeing the horizon as the end of the ocean’
In reality human being is immortal. In material world death happens to ego only. Knowing this from your own experience is awakening.

Death happens to ‘ego’ only.

Ego is mind’s creation as a substitute when inner light gets faint during adolescent age due to secretion of harmonies. It is like deposition of dust between contacts of fibre optic cable.

Everyone is a unique individual and the uniqueness lies in the way one is going to discover the REALITY or STILLNESS or Self within. This uniqueness gets wrongly imposed on body due to mind and gives birth to ‘pseudo entity’ called Ego. To keep improving ego, mind goes on creating more and more desires.

So death happens to those unfulfilled desires, and fear of death is just fear of desires (power, prestige, money, attachments) going to remain unfulfilled and loss of wealth/prestige/power that was never ours! Just a illusion of safety it creates but deaths shatter’s that illusion too.

The enlightenment or awakening happens when no-mind state coincides with egoless state. This is why mystics say that ‘you have to die’ (as you trust you are) to find your REALITY or Soul -so in a sense they are talking about the egoless state- and rebirth happens with new eyes that is able to look nothingness or emptiness too that is all around. That is everything is made up from.

We cannot bring egoless state because the one who is trying to attain is going to there. It happens in a state of ‘intense no-mind’ state. I am deliberately saying ‘intense’ and not ‘longer duration for many years’ because it depends upon one’s yearning. If yearning is strong enough, then in a moment of relaxation it can happen in this moment itself.

For an enlightened person there is no death, as it has already happened and one resurrects or takes new birth. Mind is biggest hurdle to enlightenment, and we can do something to bring no-mind state and keep practicing it so that over a period of time it becomes an undercurrent for 24 hrs. So awareness meditation is the best option as it can be done while doing any job at hand. My linktree in about for more.

This is the sate of life affairs of a normal human being. He is not seen as waiting by us, but he is too busy to carve out a path to discover truth within that liberates. So the result is same.
Every 5 seconds 9 persons are leaving this world. So we must feel a sense of urgency to become conscious in our actions as early as possible.

Awareness meditation is the way worked for me, may be you too find it suitable otherwise Dynamic meditation is for most of the people. There are 110 other meditation techniques discovered by Indian Mystic Gorakhnath about 500years before and further modified by Osho that one can experiment and the suitable one could be practiced in routine life.

My experiences may be of your help in taking only one step. Because everyone has to move forward alone, this is the nature of this journey.
In my life mindfulness or awareness meditation helped miraculously. Apart from that living a simple, authentic and totality in life is very helpful even when we are serving people around us with great love and care without discrimination.
