DEATH: SHE’S NOT ALL BAD

# 549 — PRETEND YOU’VE NEVER LIVED BEFORE.
Here is a really fun exercise. Try NOT to remember lives you’ve spent in bodies during your nearly infinite past. Go ahead. Try hard. See what happens.

# 550 — STOP PAYING TAXES.
This is an easy and inexpensive pastime.
# 551 — FEEL REALLY BIG.
This game can keep you amused endlessly. Size is relative to the largeness or smallness of other objects or spaces, by comparison. Some beings think “big” means 5’11”, 210 pounds. Or, a size 14 dress.
Now that you don’t have a body, those numbers shouldn’t really matter much. You can change your mind and just BE BIG.
For starters, try feeling as big as a Volkswagen. Then, a city bus. Next, be as big as a two story house. Be as big as a an apartment building. Work your way up gradually. Don’t try to leap tall buildings in a single bound. Who do you think you are, some kind of a god or something?
Well, maybe you are a god. There really isn’t anything about you, as a disembodied spirit, that is different than the ancient gods except size, strength, ability, and desire to invade the lives of men and make them miserable. Decide for yourself.

#552 — FIGURE OUT HOW LONG TO STAY DEAD.
Now that you’ve gotten used to the idea of being dead, and have gained some confidence in your ability to “conquer death” you may decide you would like to go to Earth and get another body again.
First, you should decide how long to stay dead before jumping right back into the same mess you were in before.
The reasons for planning your arrival on Earth are multitudinous and obvious. For example, you already know that warfare is almost continuous. Try to choose a time and a location on Earth where you are least likely to be killed or forced to kill others in battle. (good luck)
If this should occur you will be dead again in another 18 years, or less, anyway so it is very important to plan your birth ahead of the “blessed event”.
If you’re able to get a female body your odds of avoiding war may be better. However, women are almost universally oppressed, abused and enslaved by men, so don’t jump into this lightly either.
Of course there are always taxes, diseases, accidents, politicians and a host of other potential calamities to avoid.
Plan carefully and choose the time and place of your arrival cautiously. And, pick a place where you already know the language. Somewhere that has running water and electricity may be a good idea too.”

# 879   BE A ZOMBIE.

“To do this you will need to go back to Earth, find a grave with a partially decomposed corpse and re-animate it. If you can do this successfully you will make Dr. Frankenstein very proud of you! You can also get a lot of acting jobs in Hollywood movies.

Of course, re-animation of dead tissue has been the ages old quest of mad scientists, priests, theologians, laboratory technicians, research biologists, Voodoo witch doctors, alchemists, and cryogenics preservation services.

The only reason it hasn’t been done before is because no self-respecting spirit will go anywhere near a decomposing body. Gross! And, of course, only a spiritual being can animate or re-animate anything.

Many, many credible people have been pronounced “medically dead” on an operating table by the most learned scientists. They cannot explain how or why the person suddenly sits up on the table and says, “I heard you guys talking about me while I was hovering above my body near the ceiling. I decided to come back because there are still a few things I would like to get done in this life”.

Another observation that has been repeatedly and continually overlooked by scientists, in spite of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, is that the physical universe did not just “create itself” in a spontaneous,  primordial explosion of energy and matter. And, gods forbid that we embarrass them by asking the obvious question, “where did that energy and matter come from before it just decided to explode all by itself?”

One can certainly understand and applaud the scientific pendulum swing away from religious dogma and superstition toward empirical evidence, data analysis, experimentation and rational observation during the past few hundred years.

However, we may have gone too far toward the opposite extreme by denying the spirit and the obvious volition that a spiritual entity has as the source of animation we call life.

So far science has not animated a single molecule of inanimate matter.”

CUTENESS

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

“…you may be thinking that you don’t really have any identity or personality without having a body. How will anyone recognize you without your body? Fortunately, bodies are a nickel a million. Five babies are born every second.  So, should you succumb to the ungodly urge to get a new baby body in order to feel a sense of personal identity, you will need to practice being cute.

The only reason people have babies – and keep them – is because they think babies are cute. The same principle applies to all living creatures. So, brush up on looking cute, making cute sounds, doing cute mannerisms, cute smiles, cute laughs, etc..  You’ll need to have your cute skills in top form when and if you get a new body.”
