ON LOVING & DYING
TUTTO PASSA
A NEW APPROACH ON DEATH & DYING
''Tutto Passa'' by Robbie Mcintosh
WE HUMANS ARE MORTAL BEINGS, WE ALL DIE. IN FACT, EVERY DAY AND WITH EVERY BREATH WE TAKE WE COME CLOSER TO OUR OWN DEATH. EVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT?
DEATH IS SUCH AN INTRINSIC PART OF LIFE, YET NO ONE TALKS ABOUT IT. EVER. WHY THE F-CK NOT?
THIS PAGE IS WHOLEHEARTEDLY DEDICATED TO MAKING DEATH AND DYING RELATABLE & UNDERSTANDABLE. TO TAKE IT OUT OF THE DARK AND DUSTY CLOSET, IN TO THE LIGHT AND TO TRANSFORM OUR FEAR OF IT INTO LOVE
TUTTO PASSA?
Si! Tutto Passa! Everything passes and everything ends. Typing this sentence will end in this very moment. I will never again breathe the breath I took a few seconds ago. Never again will I celebrate my 35th birthday. That you and me will die one day is the very truth of our existence. Death and life are intertwined. One can not exist without the other.
Death is an unavoidable part of the cycle of life, yet many of us do everything we can to avoid accepting our mortality. We misidentify the body with our real, Eternal Self, and this misidentification causes attachment, which leads us to fear death. The mere mention of death may evoke a range of feelings within us. Uneasiness, anxiety, fear, detachment or even des-interest. This fear leads to avoidant behavior.
DEATH IS A TRANSITION
FROM FORM (EGO) TO FORMLESS (SOUL)
Dying is as being born. You transition from form (ego) to formless (soul) and when you are being born you transition from formless to form. That is how simple it actually really is! Death is natural part of the cycle of life. Sa Ta Na Ma; infinity, life, death, rebirth. The journey is not over. The good news is that you don't ever die. Your soul is deathless. The ego can be hurt but not your essence, which is your soul. At the moment of death your soul departs the body and continious its journey.
YOU NEVER REALLY DIE
Your consciousness is all that you take with you when you die. It's also the only 'thing' that can never be lost.
An excerpt from the book ''A conversation on loving and dying'':
''Dying is the most important thing you will do in your life. It's the great frontier for everyone of us. And loving is the art of living as a preparation for dying. Allowing ourselves to dissolve into the ocean of love is not just about leaving this body; it is also about the route to Oneness and unity with our inner being, the soul, while we are still here. If you know how to live and to love, you know how to die''.
