Yes,
spirituality is beautiful. You’ll enter -in the end- an oceanic life.
But... there always stays the problem of the individual and collective
death, of our suffering: Auschwitz, Hiroshima, the Gulag Archipelago, Mao with
its millions victims.....All that misery, all those wars, all those diseases......
Is
that our life? Is that the future of our children? Where do we do it all for...
what is the matter in our world? We must die of course. Or else we would
destroy our world. Who has an answer to that? Should we close our eyes? Or do
we see things wrongly.
I
got my revelation summer 2004, when seeing a film concerning Australia at the
Omniversum in The Hague. The film
is called: Australia, The Great Outback
What
we saw was the impact in the desert of the arrival of the monsoon, which
occurs once in 7 years...., riverbeds filled them selves with streaming water,
deserts became flower fields. An
enormous lake emerged, that filled itself with millions of fish. From nowhere
thousands of pelicans appeared. Did they have telephones?
A
paradise emerged in a normally dried out desert area. Where came that life
from? Those plants, the seeds are obviously well protected in the desert, but
those fish...
Well
were they happy? It was to eat and be eaten. As life is. Then dryness returned,
the rivers dried out, the lake dried out and transformed in muddy pools with
millions for their life fighting fish. They died massively in some days. The
pelicans pulled away and died in the dried out desert.....
What
a waste of life..... or was it not? Life emerged and disappeared. Where was it?
All
of a sudden I saw it.....as a 3D panorama. Not as a thought but as truth.
Life
Itself, God, Brahman contains all life. Is all life itself. Our source is life
itself.
Living
which becomes visible, produces itself in expression. There is none individual
live that is created. It is in each expression of life’s nature. The
complete universe is its visible life. So, we are too. Your Self=My Self. We
seem different, but we are the same Life, that Is. Then those millions of fish
that disappeared were no millions of individual bits of life that died.
Life as it is, came to life in that Australian desert in the form of fish,
plants, flowers, and insects.... and when dryness came, those appearances were
taken back in Life itself. Life was living him/herself. There disappeared not
any individual live, because that does not exist..
As
Sri Ramana Maharshi said on the question, where he would be after his death:
“Here and in you, where else could I be…….? There is nowhere else
to go!“
