"Given the sheer quantity of death around us, why not use this merciless light to better see who we are?"This is a good question! Thisreminds me of RamanaMaharishi'squestion of humanity, Who Am I? As a former hospice chaplain, I was surprised and curious why so many people are afraid of death. I wonder if because we have little refection into ourselves and we live this span between birth and death completely identified with our bodies and personhood which is an illusion. With self reflection/inquiry the veil of our divisions lift and we began to see our oneness. The more we turn our eyes inward, perhaps"the river of silence" will help us, as was stated, to flow peacefullytowards that end point we call death.

I grew up in a Christian home and throughout my adult life have tried on different faiths within Christianity. It wasn't til I step back from traditional, institutionalChristianity and opened my mind and my awareness to study Hindu, Muslin, Kabbalah ( mystical Judaism) that I saw Christianity in a new light. I incorporate many beautiful prayers and practices from each of these religions which has made for me now a very rich, moving, and spiritual life.

Thank you for your confession! All of us are subject to this! It seems so many people, albeit good intentions, have gotten on the spiritual band wagon bc of potential financial or personality gain. Sometimes it feels like so much heady stuff when simple silence and heartfelt meditation brings a beings light to others.

Dear JD,
What a beautiful reflection of your youth! I wholeheartedly agree and see our divisive mentally in our present culture very much because of our separation of the other and of God. As technology evolves, it seems, for the most part, that we are more isolated from nature. Nature is inherently who we are and keeps us grounded and unified.
I am a student of Ayurveda and resonate with your reflection! Thank you

Simply, in nature. When I’m in presence in nature, my agenda is nothing and there is Oneness.
