Immortal Being (3)
March 28, 2010
When I started this enquiry about immortality, I did some background reading around the subject and collated my thoughts about what I’m seeking to achieve. But it’s so intangible, for what I’m trying to touch and understand continually reshapes my thinking around it.
I’m seeking to understand how we can create the most amazing relationships to/with all life.
I’m seeking to reshape our thinking around physicality.
I’m seeking …
A close friend of mine mentioned that she had a pain in her lower back. It had persisted for about 9 months and nothing that she did could alleviate the ache. So I tuned in to what the pain represented and found the image of a dragon trying to uncoil itself. “It seems,” I said to her, “that a beautiful dragon is wanting to emerge from inside you. You need to develop a relationship with it.”
Now the dragon is a mystical and magical force. When we talk about it in terms of energy movement then what we are really saying is that we have an unfettered potential to achieve anything that we set ourselves to achieve. Not to daydream about how life can be – but to stand exultingly bold in our relationship with ourselves and declare proudly and passionately what we are here for.
I recall one of my definitions of an immortal – ‘any supernatural being who is the personification of a force’. Notice the wording. It is not common (yet) for people to talk about themselves as forces – and yet they are. A power and a force of amazing consequence. If people would realise the power and the beauty that they constantly keep in check then they would be devastated at what they are keeping from the world. If only they dared be the dragon force that they really are, and see (through dragon eyes) the mystical and marvellous force of enchantment that is this world, then they would engage with it all differently.
What are you here for, I say to you? What are you willing to cast aside and leave behind forever? Will you cast aside all thoughts that would keep you bound and stifle your creativity? Will you explore the unknown with a carefree smile and light flooding through your being?
Are you willing to explore the realms of the dragons and other immortal forces, and discover that the magical and the miraculous are a living normality? [continuation]

Ha! You’re already soaring! The scenery looks different through dragon’s eyes.
