What a beautiful death

[James123]

Your comfort, your ideas, and your most holy/god experiences are constantly under siege. Whether you are walking, working, sleeping, or eating, the threat of physical death strikes at you. To cling to what you have is to invite an agony of the soul that state of suffering religions call hell where you are forced to surrender everything you hold dear against your will.

But imagine, instead, willingly dying for the truth in the middle of a meal, or in the heat of your work.

Imagine the sheer liberation of a conscious fall. Even as you drop, you are present enough to feel the air rushing past you, whispering a final, graceful goodbye to the universe. What a profound relief. What a total, crystalline freedom.

To die to yourself in every single moment, what a beautiful death.
