The Sacredness of Life versus The Illusion of Life

 

Perhaps remnants of my Roman Catholic upbringing, I've generally had a sense of "sacred" attached to any notion of "life". That is until more recently. Not to say that I find life opposite of sacred. I find it neither. Now, there is a part me.....a part of "memory", if you will, abhors that thought. To that part this seems blasphemous for it takes away the 'reason' for living. "Why, I might as well go suicide!" Not true. The only value of life is  the significance that we place on it. The same as if we were watching a movie. However this "movie" is much more intricate, much more engaging, and dehibilitating, in the sense that it separates us from our original  eternal state of being. Awareness tells me that the more one is invested in the "life illusion" the more difficult this notion would be to consider. Also, I offer there is no right or wrong in whether it is considered or not. IMHO

If one accepts/entertains the notion of the "illusion", then one would be prudent to question "sacredness vs illusion".

Next question - who/what is  the "man behind the curtain"????

Question everything!

Peace,

Mark
