Heartspeak - Death and I


by Life Positive

It starts with a panicked awareness: "I will DIE!" This statement takes in all these following concepts, one following the other:

•   I am an individual with a life of my own, a personal experience.
•   I belong to a class of beings, one of whose attributes is mortality.
•   Using the intellectual process of logical deductions, I arrive at the conclusion that my personal death is a certainty.
•   There are many possible causes of my death, and these causes may operate in many different combinations. Although I might evade or escape one particular cause, I cannot evade all causes.
•   My death will occur in the future, I mean a time to live that has not yet elapsed.
•   But I do not know when in future my death will occur. The event is certain. The time is uncertain.
•   Death is a final event. My life ceases. That means I shall never again experience, think or act at least as a human being on this earth.
•   Accordingly, death is the ultimate separation of myself from the world.
 Is there a way out of this framework for humankind?
