THE PRICE OF IMMORTALITY

Immortality does not cost us a single penny. If fact, it frees us from any payment whatsoever. All we have to give up is our Egos. Egos which are no more than accumulations of unreal items, or even concepts, that weigh us down in a transient, illusory reality, which disappears like a puff of smoke the moment we leave it.
    How?
    Remember your last dream? That's how your waken awareness is in relation to the true reality. And when you add all you could do in your dreams, multiply  them a million times, then a billion...  you'll embark only on just another step of the infinity of horizons waiting for you to cross.
    Yes, you, and I, and everyone of us. The true reality is infinite, timeless, omniscient, with unlimited potential for generating dreams beyond our widest imagination. That's the problem with infinity. It is... infinite!
 
And even then, this does not exclude that which makes everyone of us unique. Our real Self incorporates all that we've experienced in the countless incarnations in countless illusory Phenomenal Realities. Immortality seems to be a mystery like no other.
    And yet it is available to us all. 
    Like everything in the Phenomenal Universe, immortality is a state of mind. A state of Consciousness. After all, to be immortal we don't have to go anywhere. Remaining right were we are, all we need do is to return whence we came. In a way, it is like going back home. And, seemingly unbeknownst to most of us, our real home is omnipresent. What we leave behind is not even real. It is an illusory reality which we can continue to regard, only now we'd see it for what it really is.

My book CONCLUSIONS—Pragmatic Reality attempts to answer what Albert Einstein referred to as "Thoughts of God". "The rest are details", he averred, with confidence of a man who knows what he was talking about. I believe him. He talked a lot about his dreams...
    Frankly, I'm not sure what inspired me to write this book but, perhaps, some 70 years of daily contemplation and countless dreams spread over the years may have had something to do with it. I hope you'll enjoy it. 
    Please, let me know.
