What is Death?

When the word Death is heard, a lot of thoughts and emotions immediately come into our minds. Most of us feel fear, sadness, and loss or just simply have a sense of uneasiness come to us. Why is that? Could it be because we were taught from birth that death meant something other than what it is? That when we can no longer see someone or something, that it is dead? Non-existent? Where did this word death come from? If God created all, would he allow his creations to become non-existent? Dead? If God is Love, would He create something just to have it become non-existent in a very short period of time? After all, how could Love create death?


In our world here on earth, everything has its opposite. Happy and sad, rich and poor, light and dark, strong and weak. There is even an opposite of our true selves; Spirit and Ego. If you will notice, one part of an opposite is Positive, and the other is Negative. One part is good and the other is bad. We would always prefer the positive over the negative or the good over the bad. We would surely choose Life over Death. So where did these opposites come from? Did God create them? Or did we.


When we were created, we were created in the likeness of God. If God is all Love, then we were created as Love. An opposite did not exist. But God also created us as Free Will creatures. Free Will against what? He created us with Free Will against ourselves. He gave us Free Will to believe in our true selves (Spirit) but we chose to create an illusion self (Ego). God is Love and therefore does not make his children do or think anything. It is our choice. As we grew and experimented, we began to have more faith in what we could see. What we could not see simply did not exist. We chose appearances. We became more physical than intuitional. We became so out-of-touch with God and his Love, that we began to experience hardships. At this time we created our own God, the Ego. If you can understand this, then you will begin to see that all of the negative opposites were also created by us. All of our hardships were created by us. They are all illusions. They are not real, and that includes the Ego.


If we can understand that God is Love, and Love is positive, then the negative opposites must be NOT real. The opposites of Love such as hate, dark, fear, weak, and evil must be illusions that were made up by us as a coping mechanism to weigh against our hardships. The more that we chose appearances over our intuition, the farther away we became from the Truth. But we will never forget the Truth. We will always know right from wrong, good from bad, light from darkness. Our true self (Spirit) will never die to the illusion self (Ego), because there is no death. We will always sense the Spirit and strive for positive qualities because that's who we are. We are God's spiritual children.


So, what is death? Death must also be an illusion made up by us through fear of choosing wrong. Death is not real and is also a negative opposite that we created. It does not and cannot exist for anything. Nothing dies. The concept of death became a belief to us because our true source could not be seen and therefore did not exist. We viewed a body that no longer breathed and through our limited thinking, called this death. As soon as we can begin to accept ourselves as Spirit and a part of the unseen, the sooner we will be able to shed the illusions that we have created. What is Death? Death is nothing. There is only Life.

We die every night, every night we go to sleep, and get up in the morning in a new life. This is also a type of death. We wander here and there, see many thing in dream, miraculous scene and then in the morning we find our self in the original shape. Death what we call, is we are in deep sleep and there will be a beginning of the next life.
