Immortality

. . . as I am setting out on a journey to the other world, what could be more fitting for me than to talk about my journey, and to consider what we imagine to be its nature? How could we better employ the interval between this and sunset? Socrates, Phaedo

LIFE & DREAMS.. can that ever meet? Or just like horizon ,does that meets only in our imagination? I know it is pointless to argue about this whole philosophy. But then something that holds my interest is always dearer to me and in cases like this, the concepts of space, age nothing can hold me back from liking it. Just like fragrance can’t be separated from the flower, my thoughts; my thinking cling to me.

Can anyone actually distinguish a wave from the ocean. No rather ocean is the resting lap for the hungry tide. Similarly thoughts arise in us like wave, and may be with time it gets settled too, but it just takes a fraction of second for these waves, the thought waves to spring back to action and memories with all its profoundness gets back to you.

I understand we can't stop loving things just because somebody doesn't like you loving it. Though we may channelize our love for the time being but then we can't deny its existence. Time heals everything, may be with time it may transform and take another form. But it never dies and it will never die. If soul is something indestructible, experiences and memories too are immortal. With the passing of time all our experiences are transformed and merged in to something bigger and better.

Many are experiencing an emptiness and lack of meaning, and many consciously avoid thinking about their own death, a decision which fills the emptiness with fear. For how we view death is important, profoundly influencing how we live. The fact is that nobody is born and nobody is dying we are just changing our forms to transform and to evolve into something better. It’s a movement where one travels from love to greater love, from understanding to acceptance and from life to death to begin afresh.
