This fear of death
I think it is not possible to achieve absolute happiness and in the same time having a fear of dying. Because as long as we have a vibration of fear in us, this vibration will always interfere one way or another. I think to reach the highest level of joy and happiness, we have to overcome any fear of death.
I knew a girl who told me ‘Life doesn’t make sense, going to school, getting good grades, getting a job, starting a family, then simply dying ? Better not live at all, life doesn’t make any sense’.
I was unable to tell her that things aren’t totally like this, she was reasoning from what I call the Borg, Lemming or Blue pills consumers framework.
So what is it ?
In that framework, you aren’t really free because you cannot be totally free if you are afraid of dying, you will always restrict yourself at some point because of the fear of death. Many people have insomnia because they are afraid to die so they force themselves to stay awake this is one of the action caused by the fear of death and they are a lot more.
In that framework people are eyes wide shut, they are also more like products (or Borg, lemmings whatever)
As a product you are first registered in the stock by a birth certificate, as a product , you do produce stuffs that will feed the system, the stuffs you produce will flow in the current and will be traded through a currency , just like in a river, the current(cy) flow in it and on each side of the river they are the river banks and the banks (Banking system) control the flow of the current (currency), when you die, you no longer produce so, you are removed from the stock, they make a death certificate for you.
It is important for the system to function that you don’t rebel against it ,go to work and never complain thus the need for mean of mind control. Mind control is done through means of terror and acceptance. Celebrities idolatry, drugs, news are means of mind control through acceptance. Terrorism, wars, slavery are means of mind control through terror.
Inhabiting in that framework is constantly fearing to die anytime soon. Can you be absolutely happy if you so secretly believe to the point that you prefer not to admit it to yourself that you are going to die soon ?
I think such a person will simply follow the system without questions. Why bother looking for better? What are you going to create with the beliefs of that system…you aren’t going to create a high level of happiness. It is best not to assume that football superstars have a high degree of happiness even if they tell you such things.
Now, how to free the self of the fear of death, I know some people, they read about the survival of the soul and stuffs, they accept the idea, but it didn’t remove the fear of dying from them. I think we can be free of the fear of death, when we feel our connection to the Universe. It will feel like that we are more than a body, than a mind and If we can perceive beyond the body it will help even more. I think living in a high state of consciousness remove the fear of death because there is an enlightenment occurring in that process.
If you understand deep inside of you that you are connected to the moon, the sun, the cosmos, I think it will be a totally different experience than seeing yourself as an individual separated of everything.
They are other details but I need to think some more, may be, I will write that in another post.
This aside today we have a lot of wind, a good and beautiful strong wind, it made the waves tall and strong, I love them this is unusual for a quiet sea like the Mediterranean sea.

Yeah, reminds me of Monroes “Far Journeys”, when he says that once a human realizes, that he or she is more than the body and mind (for example during an OOBE) the fear of death vanishes…
Btw. stephane from ideagasms relates all other fears to this one core fear, so once this fear is transcended (trough ego death) on reaches “enlightenment”

I doubt one can function without ego.
They tried to kill their ego through LSD but a new ego was born again…ego is part of the existence as a human being….see the Seth Material - The Nature of Personal Reality - the chapter on LSD

In the quoting about the girl you know, I don’t see it as a fear o dying. I think she is referring to the meaning of life. Is it just to born, grow, work, get old and dying for what?
Of course, if you have spiritual knowledge you know life doesn’t really ends. But your life on Earth yes.
P.S.:Well, this is what I understood about your quoting, you talked more with her, maybe she has that fear anyway…
