Some quick notes :


death is the end of the identification of the form

end of the physical form of me
end of the psychological form of me

sense of self is always comparative

An attempt to be more than others .. you can be more miserable than others

one who has been treated unfairly .. is very satisfying

you see things that conform with your sense of identity

everything you see is totally filtered through the self image of " me "

youi think that it is reality .. but it is the heavy filters

an inner script that you act out

it becomes your life story
you go on looking for more you .. never finding it


then .. confronted with death ..... loss.....status possessions relationships .. suddenly forms in which there was the self .. disolve ....

sometimes also mind forms

trauma shakes the mind's rigid mind patterns
those also die

you don't know who you are

form dies

thought forms die

and the whole story based identity can come to an end in the face of death

death a wonderful portal when the form disolves

suddenly a form is gone and a hole is gone .. an emptyness

anything that is decaying is half way between form and no form

the light of consciousness shines, flowers through the decaying form


consciousness wants to flower through the form

the purpose of your life is to enable that to come through

we embrace the death that is here when you surrender to what is

you can surrender through suffering or surrender through YES to what is


YES takes you beyond form


that which you say yes to ..... maybe some kind of death / loss ----------or form


any kind of death leaves an emptiness behind

an openning on to the formless

the death of the form enables God to shine through


death has long been recognised as sacred

death when the formless shines through the form


a deep understanding of the universe happens when you enter the state of surrender


don't carry around with you the burden of your life situation
