But what would happen if we stopped considering death an inescapable fate?
These words are a message that a man of integrity spreads out into space, tearing the veil of time to allow lower, disintegrated humanity to re-member, to put together its scattered limbs and, for a few moments, savour immortality.

But what would happen if we stopped considering death an inescapable fate?

From childhood, we learn to think in terms of limits, deadlines, loss, and defeat.

There exists a language that precedes words. It belongs neither to speech nor to writing...

It would mean denying with all our strength the constraining and humiliating condition of a subjugated humanity, and confronting with rigor, and overcoming with determination, a struggle with ourselves.

But what would happen if we ceased to regard death as an inescapable destiny?

We are schooled in finitude.

For centuries, this proverb has been understood as a celebration of conflict, as though the number of one’s enemies measured the greatness of a human being. Yet this is a profound misunderstanding.

The world is nothing but your inner being made visible, so that what you refuse to recognize within yourself can no longer escape your gaze.

What you call life, reality, memory, destiny, events, circumstances, other people, and the world itself are merely the gears of the “Truth Machine”.

“Each child carries within himself a gift. Each child has a dream, an inner vision and a unique, individual mission to accomplish.”
