"your death mors mea,
because all is One"
[-b rightful]
COMMENT:
A commentary on this aphorism is a must, as
lends itself to some misunderstanding.
In its literal meaning the text looks heavy and desperate
, suggesting that the death of a person
- more or less near and dear to us - it involves
impossible to continue living.
And indeed, at times, the record shows us how
this possibility may also occur. When
the loss of a family member strikes a
already fragile physical or mental health problems can also happen
that this carries with it
also that of other family members, directly to
free choice, or indirectly through disease
body or mind. Consider that my maternal grandmother
died at six months after her husband, which was very much tied
. I myself, as well
my mother, I'm not struggling to regain a little momentum
life after the passing of my father.
The lack of physicality, his energy and
soul is strong, since the arrangement between us, even
suit made of smiles and was very large.
In this sense, although I believe that
the feeling of life should be a disproportionate power against every
possible temptation to escape or surrender to
death - a feeling which is based on the immortality of our
spiritual part - however,
understand the reasons for those who find themselves succumbing to such a situation
.
However, the profound sense that I would like to express
with this ruling is another. It
, echoes and is opposed to the more famous,
that history has bequeathed to us: the famous " your death, life
mea " based on the consciousness of nature Animal
man and his fall, in part, under the Laws
that Nature has put in place.
According to this common way of speaking and thinking,
conservative instinct or "survival" individual
(from "live above / beyond" the others) would like the
death of others, even those relatively close,
be useful to the maintenance and progress of our
life. In part, and with due distinction is really so
. Such logic, however, be released from any
moral law and subject only to
the so-called "Jungle" or "stronger",
leads inevitably to justify war and violence
tout court.
If we consider, however, the man, even or especially
from its divine and spiritual nature , we see that the optical
you can flip easily.
If we give more value to what unites us than
what differentiates us, the love that unites us than divides us
that otherness, we will not see in most other
something different from us, but a piece
of our own being, a manifestation of
same principle that moves us. In short, if we apply
really the biggest and last of the commandments
recommended by Jesus in his earthly mission
, that ' love each other,
as I have loved you ", then it is clear that
the death of our brother human touches us as our
death itself, and we must do everything possible to avoid
.
But it is only in the Catholic religion that we find this
primacy of com-union with others ,
understood precisely as a union of different means of

own theological and philosophical reflection the Upanishads Vedic the term
Brahman (in the form "neutral") indicates

" The Om is the universe . Here's his explanation:

Americans who find this principle. All

all the others, and the extent of
awareness of this fundamental identity, depend on them.
