# 485  BE YOUNG FOREVER.

As a disembodied spirit you probably don’t show your age as much as you did when you were in a body. If you are an immortal spiritual being you are infinitely aged and will continue to be infinitely ageless.

There have been quite a few spiritual sages from the ancient east, like Buddha in India or Lao Tze in China, for example, who have contemplated the nature of the spirit. If the rumors are true, they were able to transcend the continual cycle of life, death and rebirth.

Apparently the process of birth, death and rebirth predisposes one to suffer from reoccurring amnesia so that one tends to forget the life just lived.

Part of this has to do with the loss of the body and possessions through which you established your identity while on Earth. When you lost your body and possessions you also felt as though you lost your “self” or your “identity”.

Conversely, if one does not identify oneself as their possessions or as their body, one is less likely to forget their actual, spiritual identity. Therefore, if you decide to go back to Earth to inhabit another body, for whatever reason, don’t forget that you are who you are – the same immortal spiritual being you’ve been for billions and billions of years.

# 749  AVOID OLD AGE.

One of the most unlovely disadvantages of owning and occupying a body made of meat is decay. Use of the euphemistic term “aging” does not diminish to reality that old bodies experience one or more of the following: chronic pain, general deterioration of function, loss of energy, loss of hair, accumulation of fat, loss of muscle strength, loss of eyesight, loss of teeth, loss of sexual desire, function (which is the main reason for getting the goddamned thing in the first place!) and loss of mental acuity which leads to emotional and spiritual anxiety.

Loss of friends and family who are expiring all around you leads to loneliness and grief. The final agony of death relieves the ordeal, but only if one does not fall for the temptation to return to Earth, yet again, and get another new body and start the whole  process again.

Seriously, what kind of “all-knowing, all-seeing, all-telling, all powerful creator god” would think up anything as defective, temporary and fragile as a body made of meat? Why not biodegradable plastic bodies? Or stainless steel bodies? Or lightweight titanium bodies?

If you happen to meet “the god” while you’re dead please tell it/him/her/them this: “For Christ’s sake, if you’re going to create bodies, get it right next time! OK?!”

10 REASONS WHY IT’S NOT COOL TO BE HUMAN

1)  Humans are the only species that worship / reward those who murder / massacre  their own species and other organisms for amusement or power.

2) Every human “civilization”, since before “written history”, has been destroyed or failed without exception.

3)  Human are the only species that indiscriminately destroy / enslave the natural environment and other life forms to support and justify their own survival.

4)  Humans are planetary parasites that destroy and/or  consume nearly all other life forms.

5)  Humans are the only species that have the ability to destroy every living organism on Earth, permanently.

6)  Human beings are one of the most fragile of all living organisms, while convinced they are the “God’s perfect creation” who are therefore entitled to rule Earth by “Manifest Destiny” granted by non-existent “gods” they invent themselves.

7)  Human beings are able to perceive only about .0003 percent of the electromagnetic spectrum.

8)  Humans are the only species that deceive, cheat, steal and murder to gain power / control while covering up their crimes with trickery, lies and hiding evidence of their premeditated intentions and actions.

9) Humans are the only species that do not have a naturally occurring symbiosis with any other life forms, with the possible exception of intestinal bacteria.

i.e. a  close association between two or more organisms of different species, often but not necessarily benefiting each member. The association of algae and fungi in lichens and of bacteria living in the intestines or on the skin of animals are forms of symbiosis. (Dictionary.com)

10)  Apparently, human beings are an alien species, with amnesia, that did not “evolve” on Earth while pretending to be “natives”.
