death, eternal love, eternity, Inspiration, Life after death, spirituality POEMS: “Journey of Return” (about death and dying) Posted by bodyandsoulnourishmentblog on March 10, 2019March 7, 2019 Journey of Return When the Beloved wants to take you Home, extend your hand to His welcoming even though your body may be trembling and your mind may want to flee; even though those around you grieve, and you yourself have mourned, even before they, the changing form of your body. Tears are not the final truth though they will come and go like stars that need a dark sky to be seen. Death is not a failure of a mind that is not strong enough, or positive enough, or pure enough. Those who hold such views are simply masking fear with ideas of being in control We are being lived by the Creator of this life. Do you really think a finite mind can change the mind of God? Jesus tried and failed. “Please take this cup from me!” he begged, as we all do in the midst of anguish. But anguish, fear, or deepest grief cannot alter Who you really are. The beautiful Spirit that extended Itself in space and time, and called Itself by your name, is simply ready to return, unencumbered by a body, to Its vast and spacious Unborn Self, that kisses you at birth, and holds your hand in death, and never for a moment forgets you are Itself. The mind imagines you are leaving, but where could you truly go? You are Life Itself! Unceasingly flowing, moment to moment unfolding Yourself. A body is born; a body dies; but you do not. Deep within your heart, you know this Truth. Rest there. Rest in the knowing that opens your heart to all that IS, that loves Itself in all that comes, and returns to Itself in all that goes.
