Death and Life

The other night, I was having dinner in one restaurant with Sangeeta, a perfect spaghetti All'Fredo, when I don't know how, whe start to talk about death. Since that night Icouldn't have stop thinkabout it and I want to share with you that discover. It couldn't be a dsicover, but for me was a shock. At the same time I think is one of the more important points in which occidental and oriental cultures differ, like the rose and the lotus.

In the school we learnt that Hindus believe in reencarnation and wish to reach the nirvana. Buddhist in this basic have the same believe. Nirvana is a state in which there's no feeling at all and therefore no suffering. From its mithology hinduism shows an idea of one earth and universe in constant change with cicles of destruction anQuite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? That's what it is to be a slave.I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the darknessat Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain. Time to die. d creation, so they believe there's nothing permanent and we just have to play our rule that will finish with the death. During our live,he wil face sicknes, sadness, fights,wars and natural disasters.

With this vision,the idea of a eternal state without any feeling, that doesn't mean eternel happyness but a peaceful state without interrrumptions, without feelings and sensations that disturb it, come out like the main objetct four our soul that trouhg the reencarnations should try to satisfact god and take the right decisions to get it.

I knew that before, but I hadn't met noone with this feeling or believeing before in my life. And when they say, yes, if I die know and get the nirvana I'll be allright, I wouldn't again my life or another one if I get the chance I couldn't do more than get totallly amused.

From there is from where born their tranquility, the orientalpeace and quietness. They have a thousand lives to take and do the right, the eternal human dilema. And if they don't do it, they will get another chance.

Instead of this relaxation, the western, christian, jew or muslim, just got one life to live and do the right, satisfact God, thaht even in hindureligion is not like afurius fahter that will punish us if we don't do the right think, and reach because of our good acts the eternal heaven. If to that we add the complexity of the moral system andthe punishment of the eternal hell we will just become really confused and scared about life and death, worrying every single minute. We live with fear and we can not love properly.

And then are the ones like me. We believe and consider life, and most our's one, asone of the most beautiful and amazing perfect accidents that had happend in hte history of the universe. Without sense, and without soul, our life is just one. we also look to it with fear, but fear to don't enjoy properly every single minute and make this beautiful present dign. In contrast to the hindu, we desire to life one thousand lifes in ours one. And that's I'm trying to do.

"Quite an experience to live in fear, isnt' it?
That's what it is to be a slave.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-beams glitter in the darknessat Tannhäuser Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time like tears in rain.
Time to die." Rutger hauer, Blade runner

Our thougths and remains are chemical sustances in our brain. Life, our perception of our life, thats the only thing that is in our brain,are that chemical sustnaces. The past and the gfuture doesn't exist, just achemical sustances that create that illusion of remains and dreams. That chemical sustances have a weight, a weight clore to the Planck scale, areally small one, but really important. What I try to get is as much as the sustances having as much experiences as posible so this sustnaces, my reaminsand dreams, would be heavier, make me life heavier.
