Last of 2020
‘May you live in interesting times’. Well we certainly have and I hope 2021 will be easier for us all.
A question that comes up a lot and usually engenders other questions is what happens when we die? What of the soul? What of karma? So before I likened the soul to awareness or gave a picture of blue sky with though/feeling clouds.
When you turn on your tech or tv there is a moment of nothingness, on but nothing to see. We can liken that as what happens at birth and a few years down the line you’re glued to NetFlix. The background is always there. BUT it is not just YOUR background. Your soul, well you don’t actually own it. It is part of the bigger blue sky. We’re all connected to this web thing, not separate at all. There is no my part of blue sky.
So what about karma? Where does my karma come from and how does it travel onto my next body? Well, there is a lot of My My My. It’s not your personal karma, again you don’t own that either. All our karmas are intertwined, everything affects everything. So your actions your thoughts your death just go on to affect something or someone else. And your actions and thoughts came from something else. Zero beginning. Or to quote Pascal. Nature is an infinite sphere of which the centre is everywhere and the circumference is nowhere.
And thank you to Simona for directing me to youtube Ross sisters potato salad, clearly, this is the key to backbends
