Trying to find sort of wise words or enlightening words. Why
is that?
I do not know. But this morning when I was taking a bath
there was a thought crossed my mind. Suddenly I thought about death. While
rubbing my body with soap, I thought about it.
I said to myself; “When the soul leave the body, so there
wil only be the body without breath. That is what we call someone die”
When I die, will I realize it?
When I die, will my soul easy to leave the body I mean no
attachment. No sadness or something unnecessary?
However, just what the wise men say that we must realize the
time we die, that’s why we must live without attachment. Living without
attachment will make us easy to face death. We will continuo our journey
easily.
Life continuo, our soul will continuo the journey after our
time is over here in earth. Perhaps the soul will come to this earth again but
it will continuo the journey.
So, we must get used to separate between soul and body
matters. When someone say something bad about us, it does not hurt our soul,
it’s only hurt our feeling. We are not feeling. So, we should think twice
before react to such useless thing. Take a deep breath and exhale slowly. Do it
for several minutes.
We are also not merely the body, but we must take a good
care of it. We must get accustomed about it. Love our body by having good and
nutritious food and drinks. That sounds difficult but actually not. We just
need to remind ourselves over and over again. Good and nutritious food and
drinks are for our goodness. We must take a good care of ourselves or else we
will suffer.
Meditating is also a great way to make us aware about death.
Death is a certain thing we will face. Through meditation we will become relax
and realize about our emotions, feelings and so forth. Meditation in Arabic
language named tafakur or contemplate. That’s what we need.
If we do not like using the word meditation, so we can use
the word contemplate or tafakur. They are all the same.
Talking about meditation, I myself really thankful to Bapak
Anand Krishna through his Anand Ashram Foundation (affiliated with UN) since
from him I learn about it. This writer of 150s books written in Indonesian
language and English is a great person with great dreams which he is now working
on to realize.
His vision is One Earth One Sky One Humankind as we can see
when we enter his retreat centre at Bukit Pelangi, Ciawi,Bogor, West Java
Since 2010 this loving person was slandered doing a harassment
by a girl who admitted as his former student. The case was made to silence him
from doing his noble actions toward humanity.
To find more about the case, please visit www.freeanandkrishna.com
We pray that God will always be with him
