The Art of Dying

Our dualistic mind experiences death as something outside of ourselves, happening sometimes in the future. Our dualistic mind limits the understanding of what death is all about; death lives within us not outside of us.

The art of dying requires us to be willing to surrender to everything. It teaches us to let go.

The art of dying requires us to be willing to surrender to everything. It teaches us to let go of our mask, our projections, our fears, what we think is right, or what we believe is fair. This path can be bumpy, with experiences of contraction and expansion. The art of dying is not the art of dissociating or ignoring our emotions. It is the art of integrating all of it and staying committed to our experience. We then realize that we need to let go about letting go and embrace ourselves exactly the way we are.

When we truly commit to dying, our hearts open. When we truly commit to dying, we are reminded to bring humility at the core of who we are, so we can be present to everything.

This death may be more challenging than our physical death and yet that is the path to our truth and our freedom. Can we be brave enough to invite death into our lives?

One of the greatest challenges in today’s culture is that we have forgotten what a community is. True community is not built on uniformity; it is built on authenticity.

A community is a space where each person is encouraged to connect with their true self. From that place of inner truth, we learn to dance with each other’s uniqueness. We grow by witnessing one another. We learn to love more fully, expand our awareness, and open to perspectives beyond our own.

We may bump into each other’s, experience our fears, projections, hopes, or attachments and in doing so, we heal. We stay awake and stretch our hearts wider than we ever imagined possible.

True community is rooted in diversity. If our opinions, belief systems, our tastes are exactly the same, our sense of self begins to dissolve. Belonging does not come from subscribing to an ideology, it comes from living in alignment with our truth and being accepted for it.

Nature offers us the perfect example; it thrives in diversity. As humans, it is our responsibility to build, nurture, and participate in communities. When we unplug from this essential connection, everything begins to fall apart, and human values erode.

Remember, we always have a choice.
