Posted: Fri Dec 03, 2004 7:56 am Post subject: Observations of a Near Death Experiencer
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Buddhism is just fine. Any religion is just a social system looking for spiritual answers. When any one of them claims they have all the answers then forget it.
I sensed, at least for myself, I lived and died many times before. Know what I compare it to? Did you ever see Blake Runner[great movie]? When the supposed villian[actually not] is dying he is sitting in the rain and sadly wonders about how so many experiences are doomed to vanish in time like tears in the rain. This really brings it to home for me.
Past lives are like those tears in the rain. But never forgotten by the souls that lived them. Each life adds to the growth of your soul. Which isn't defined as a human soul. A soul is a soul, as it grows it is able to become more and more, its life inside and its capacity for awareness grows with experience. Today, for now, the human journey is just right for it, but someday, in the far future, after it has grown a lot more, it will want more. Someday a human physical life will not be enough for your soul.
I sensed we grow until we're ready to help the spiritual creative process. When we're ready to bring new souls from the tiny parts of what we'll become. Humans are still babies on a spiritual level. Hardly mature at all.
You already know what survives with the soul. You see with your soul, not really with your eyes[just a physical means to transmitt the physical light information to your brain, where the souls takes it from there and turns it into alive perception of light]. You hear with your soul, taste with it. Everything you're aware of, is felt inside the AWARENESS of your soul. Underneath the perceptual objects of your mind is your underlying sense of self and awareness, that is your soul. When you watch a TV show and become emerged into other lives, while watching that different story is still a same sense of YOU deep inside. When you're driving, or swimming, or doing anything else, deep inside is always that same sense of you, underneath all those different perceptions. Because that is your soul. It was there when you were only 4 years old and will be there, the same and unchanging, if you reach 94. Now the things you think about might change with a new brain and life each time you come back to live a physical life, but you'll always be YOU inside.
The worse horror a soul could experience is to get locked into one life experience. Unless someday we develop physcial bodies we can change over time so we can change over time to accomidate spiritual growth. But that would be a new stage of physical life, reserved for the further complexity of the future.
The one lesson I learned is this. Enjoy THIS life as much as you can. While your soul will continue forever, which it is build for, your present life, your present friends, what you enjoy now, your lovers today, will not. Once read/lived, it is a chapter of life which cannot be lived over again. So commiting suicide[unless is extreme hopeless pain] should be a big no-no. Enjoy what you are today, because it won't come again exactly as it is now.
As for what you really are. You're a soul. Capable of growing with experiences. Consciousness is awareness -MENTAL LIGHT. Today your soul as a human is dim, but someday, in time, it will shine as another white light. When your turn to mentor lesser souls becomes your spiritual duty. Human souls are still like flash lights against the sun of a white light.
You're on a long long long journey, and only from such a perspective does Life become fair. With a never-ending ending.
