I’ve been reflecting on a concept since a conversation with another practitioner. What if immortality isn’t about stopping the cycle of death and life, but rather transforming it? It seems that the reason immortals are rare is that the process is incredibly challenging and not something people willingly endure.
From my own experiences with growth and the associated mental shifts, I wonder if the true cost of immortality is a devastating and aggressive rebirth of the soul and mind, possibly occurring every 25 years or so. This intense process might often lead to self-destruction (suicide) due to its severity. However, each cycle could also bring profound insights and deeper understanding of existence.
I’d love to hear your thoughts on this perspective!
I have to add while I do not suggest trying this. I encourage teaching and learning as such. We need to acknowledge freedom of choice and expression. In the end all we can do is inform others or we taking away freewill.
Why would you be? When undergoing such significant growth, social interaction may not be as crucial. The focus is on healing, learning to find happiness, and sustaining yourself, along with the benefits that come from this process. Additionally, consider seeking a romantic partner who is also experiencing constant metamorphosis and rebirth. Much like two butterflies continuously evolving and supporting each other, this shared journey can be enriching and encouraging.
