The illusion of Life and Death

Great art and music are expressions of our infinite creativity in limited, solid form. Humans can only experience it in tiny parcels like that to protect us from destruction. Our limited minds can’t fully grasp the vastness of the infinite. But we enjoy that beauty in limited form because it’s like a postcard from home saying “Wish you were here”.

Our Ego covers and hides our true selves and our creativity. This begins early in life from parents and society “Don’t do that! No! Stop! You can’t do that! Be ‘good’!” The idea to “Be good” is really saying “You are not good enough”. This limits our natural spontaneity and creativity to a limited, solid form. Our true selves (happiness, health and wealth) are then stifled.

Overcoming your Ego and finding your true self unlocks the creativity inherent in your being. This comes with ‘suffering’ because we need that energy to transform it into strength needed to make the shift. Child birth is a painful experience at first – just like bringing your infinite true self into this world of limited, solid form.

In this physical world, it appears that there are things such as life and death because we don’t see the invisible forms that everything changes into. Really, there is only transformation. Science now shows us that energy cannot be created nor destroyed; only transformed. What we perceive as death is merely transformation into another form. We never really lose anything, only the illusion of solid forms.

You can see this design of transformation everywhere. Our sun is constant “destruction”, like one huge nuclear explosion. But really, it’s just transforming its energy and emitting it in many different forms; radiation, heat, visible / infrared / ultraviolet light. That constant “destruction” is used for life on our planet.

Carbon dioxide, which causes death to us, is what trees need to live and produce oxygen, which we in turn need to breathe for life. Everything in existence relies on another – remove something and the whole system falls apart. We are more one with the entire universe than we realize. Life and Death, like all things, are one – transformation, the eternal process of creation.

Modern society prevents our soul’s expression (creation) and transforms it into hate and further destruction of our inter-dependent system. The result is war, stealing, fighting and arguing. People then fight for wealth, health and happiness – rather than creating and sharing with others which would create even more.

We have full control of this transformation process - to prevent a soul’s expression is to prevent creation and without proper transformation of energy, everything falls apart. Take out carbon dioxide and plants die.

This is why it’s important to have self esteem and unconditional love. With self esteem, we allow ourselves to be and accept ourselves as is – fully – without forcing and needing ourselves to live up to limited forms of Ego. You then create your own happiness, health, wealth and love – regardless of your life situation, result or appearance.

Unconditional love enables you to accept others for who they are, preventing the formation of their Ego. This love also transforms them into and allows them to see who they really are – co-creators of happiness, joy, health, wealth and abundance with the rest of existence.

This is why we need and will always have loss, death and suffering. We need that energy to transform it into life and happiness. All the people that have done great things with their lives have been motivated by great amounts of pain, suffering and injustice.

After learning to create through desperation, we can then start creating through inspiration – removing the illusion of loss, death and limitation. Transformation and creation is above death and limitation. But this won’t create a paradise on Earth.

If we had nothing but happiness, joy and love on Earth, we would then have no need to create new things to benefit others. We would have no purpose because we would have everything we would need and the creation process would end. Everything in existence relies on everything else; pain and pleasure... life and death.
