Go to the truth beyond the mind. Love is the bridge.

Letting the last breath come. _x000D_ _x000D_ Letting the last breath go. _x000D_ _x000D_ Dissolving, dissolving into vast space, _x000D_ _x000D_ the light body released from its heavier form. _x000D_ _x000D_ A sense of connectedness with all that is, _x000D_ _x000D_ all sense of separation dissolved _x000D_ _x000D_ in the vastness of being. _x000D_ _x000D_ Each breath melting into space _x000D_ _x000D_ as though it were the last.

I have seen many die, surrounded by loved ones, and their last words were ‘I love you.’ There were some who could no longer speak yet with their eyes and soft smile left behind that same healing message. I have been in rooms where those who were dying made it feel like sacred ground. (26)

I have seem even those who have long since abjured God die in grace. . . . Atheists don't use their drying to bargain for a better seat at the table; indeed they may not even believe supper is being served. They are not storing up 'merit.'; They just smile because their heart is ripe. They are kind for no particular reason; they just love.
