Aging is a natural process. It happens to
everyone. However, suffering is optional. That's the message which is often
discussed among the luminous souls. All bodies will definitely grow old. All
human bodies will weaken in old age. But suffering is a series of choices which
are made by a person since they were young.
Sadly, event though this message is widely
known by many people, we can see the tragedy of old age here and there. A
friend who is a psychologist in Yogyakarta shared his story, even when his
father has died long time ago, but the family members keep blaming the father
because soul wounds which the father created for the other family members as a
result of divorce.
The last story left a profound lesson, to get
divorced is easy. But to heal the soul
wounds years later is far from easy. That's one story of a scar being seen in
old age as a result of divorce, there are other touching stories of old people
who have incurable diseases in old age, old people who have no one to take good
care of them. With such dark stories in old age, there's a question which
arises, where will the soul go in the after death journey?
For every soul who is sensitive enough, long
before life will plunge into the abyss of disaster, there are spiritual signs
here and there which appear. Unfortunately, the signs were denied for many
reasons such as; unreasonable, occultism, mysticism, etc. Such kind of denial usually
comes from the friends who are very clever, highly educated and full of
confidence.
In a simple but deep message, material
success at a young age is similar to a big party. And all parties should be
followed by washing the dishes in old age. Divorce, stroke, cancer, insomnia, incurable
diseases are some of examples of washing the dishes in old age. In the above
story of friend who is a psychologist, even long after the physical body has
died family members still keep condemning.
Some spiritual friends who have sensitive
souls and who are rich deep inside shared their insights, long before life
catastrophes occur, there are spiritual signs like an early warning system
which keeps appearing to the surface. A spouse who never tired of getting
angry, he or she even threatened someone with divorce, children who start
creating a lot of trouble, the quality and quantity of sleep getting worse and
worse, some people often have nightmares, without any reasons suddenly
something is burning inside, that's some of the spiritual signs which often
appear at the beginning.
Like seeing a speedometer in the car that
indicates the engine is beginning to be hot, that's the right time to calm down
the life. Slow down the rhythm of life, learn to lower the material objectives,
spend more time with family, take more rest, go to some recreation places,
begin the journey of serving the others, that is some of the ways available.
If you are interested in spirituality, it is
recommended that you learn meditation, yoga, prayer, worship, and other
spiritual practices. Whatever the forms of spiritual practices, it is always
advised to select the spiritual practices that calm the mind and make the soul
shine. At the same time make spiritual seekers closer to the family and spiritual
lights like love, kindness and compassion at the heart of your daily life.
Some young men try to argue by saying that a
successful material life, which is done in the right appropriate way, will not
be followed by washing the disease in old age. With all respect to the
different opinions, honestly it must be clearly noted, that the human body has
it's own limits. The capacity of family to support our material success also
has its own limits.
As the driver who exceed the capacity of his
cars engine, anyone who grow far above the ability of the body, or above the
capacity of family to support, over a matter of time surely they will collapse.
For that reason, whenever the personal life and the family life begin to be
burning, quickly go back to the middle. Learn to rediscover the beautiful light
in the middle which is called inner contentment.
Anyone who grows beautifully in the middle
point through a deep sense of self-sufficiency, will not only survive
themselves, the family will grow in a beautiful way, but they also will leave
behind a beautiful light here on earth. Children who grow up in a healthy way,
grandchildren who grow up in a beautiful way, touching examples that someone
left behind will be remembered here on earth as a series of lights. "As materials
of contemplation, the spiritual body that we transfer from the old body to the
new one in the moment of death is habitual energy. Those who have a strong
habit of sharing light during their stay here on earth, there's a probability
that they will reincarnate in the realm of light".
