Dying is Entering Eternal Love
Mere ego dies. There is no afterlife.
Sorry, my dear ego readers. There is no heaven or hell for ego to continue doing its ego things.
Nothing.
Total self expands.
It is not an ego.
It becomes more and more
a universe.
Total self expands
during a whole life, if it gets the chance
and some support.
It grows.
Total self is expansion ― nothing less.
It grows and overlaps
thereby becoming also the overlap
itself
while remaining itself.
Therefore, it doesn’t die as ego dies.
You see?
Total self continually enters the eternal love of the universe ― drawn to love, by love, and in love
including when ego dies.
An eternal togetherness of loved ones ― souls who have no boundaries
in space or time.
Sorrow becomes eternal joy,
a tear, a smile.
A knowing, once there,
a never having doubted.
A being intimately close
for always.
