THE SPRING OF ETERNAL LIFE

Clearly life isn’t equal to death as it’s overturned by it. Love is the basic substance of our being – originally divine but eventually our own element to handle, therefore our origin and our goal. As the power which calls life into being in both a human and divine sense, it’s also the place we return to when life is complete – therefore it holds the balance over the beginning and the end. I believe in this sense death can’t surpass love and love is the equal of death. However, we’re just beginners!

 

Our life is dissolving in us all the time – the breakdown of cells, the ageing process. So where do we have to look for continued life, during life? Do we look for it in the non-physical part of our being? No, because during life every part of us is oriented towards furthering our existence on earth. That includes what we ordinarily call the ego or the soul. We have to look further, to what I call the Well of Youth, or the Spring of Eternal Life. This occurs in stories or sometimes as landmarks in sacred places. The Well of Youth is the ever-renewing inner part of our being. We have to look for it in times spent away from the realities of physical life – moments of silence and inspiration. The eternal part of our being then works into the temporal. This is the Self beyond the self. It rests in the hands of the Being who is Love in the highest sense. This Being lives and moves within the inner self. Therefore the Fountain of Inspiration, the Well of Youth, the Spring of Eternal Life, all give hope of life before death and certainty of continued being afterwards.

 

Best wishes, today,
