Beyond the Fear of Death

Life is a game. Life is a performance. Life is a dance. And one day, the dance comes to an end. One day, everyone’s time comes to depart, and I know that one day my time will also come. But I am aware that I am more than just this amazing machine called the physical body, this wonderful costume, this vehicle that I have been living in and wearing for all of these years. It has an expiry date, and I know that human bodies do not last forever. But what is important for me is to be aware of who I am. I am the eternal, the non-physical, the spiritual energy that makes this body work. I, the spirit, I, the soul, enable this body to function. And so, let me choose to live in the awareness that I am an eternal spiritual being. I am an eternal soul. I can never die.

When I experience my eternity, it gives me the reassurance that even when I leave this physical body, I, the soul, will continue. I will continue to move through time. I am always me. My body is like a jacket I have been wearing to perform my unique part in this grand theater of life. A time comes when I no longer need this jacket, and I, the soul, will move on in peace, in silence, and in comfort.

I also have very deep faith in my own actions. I choose to perform actions to the highest values possible for me. Let me choose to pay full attention to living with dignity, treating others with dignity, behaving with dignity, and expressing respect, kindness, and good wishes to all around me. And I know that by making this effort to express the best within me to all around me, this is the greatest protection and also the greatest investment.

The result of my good wishes and my elevated thoughts, the energy that is created as a result of this, will be like an orb of light, an orb of protection that will be with me as I pass into the future. And with this awareness of my eternity and my faith in my good deeds, I am stable, I am calm, and I look to the future with security, courage, and fearlessness. I am ready for tomorrow.
