- I am so afraid of death ..

- Exactly. If the baby in the darkness of its mother’s womb was told: “Outside there is a world of life , with high mountains, great seas, undulating planes, beautiful gardens in blossom, a sky full of stars, and a blazing sun … And you, facing all these marvels, stay enclosed in this darkness …” The unborn child, knowing nothing about these marvels, would not believe any of these. Like us, when we are facing death. That’s why we’re afraid.

- But there can’t be light in death because it‘s the end of everything.

- How can death be end of something that doesn’t have a beginning?!

“If one were to tell and unborn child that outside the womb there is a glorious world with green fields and lush gardens high mountains and vast seas, with a sky lit by the sun and the moon, . the unborn would not believe such absurdity. . Still in the dark womb how could he imagine the indescribable majesty of this world? . In the same way, when the mystics speak of worlds beyond scent and colour, the common man deafened by greed and blinded by self-interest cannot grasp their reality”

•Mevlana Rumi ق   

We r still the same unborn child in the womb of the Universe contemplating what is life. It’s time to step outside of the limited physical mind and absorb the vastness of the Soul. Are you with me? Then let’s go.
