You Have 10 Minutes to Leave Your Body! We take so much for granted with our bodies and our lives. But what kind of relationship do we create with death before that time comes? Do we live in awareness of this next phase of life? Ask yourself this question: If life were given to me in another form, would I take it? If I could live as vivaciously, energetically, and with abundant love in my life—but in another form—would I do it? Think about it. Think and imagine. Just imagine yourself breathing right now. Feel your nostrils take in the air, and feel the air released through your mouth. Feel the air rise in your stomach, in your lungs, and back out your mouth again. Continue to pay attention to this movement. It is most basic, isn’t it? Breathing in, breathing out. Now, as you are engaged in this movement—fully, without distracting thoughts—what else is there in life? You are breathing, in and out; you have the vital essence of life moving in and out of your lungs, where it needs to be moving. The most precious of all elements is working you right now, for you are breathing air. Without air you die. And as a human being living in this moment, that ability to remain alive on Earth is made possible by air. We forget this, thinking life is simply given to us without any further worry or concern. Well, what if you didn’t have the air—what if you had to decide in the next 10 minutes another form of existence? What if you were told, right now—you have National Police running through the streets, blowing their horns, screaming in their loudspeakers—“You have 10 minutes to leave the human body and chose another form of existence”—what would you do? It would be like being evicted from your house, except you’d have 10 minutes to do it. Ten minutes to find another form of living. What would your mind do? It would probably, initially, toss the words around for five of those minutes trying to determine what they meant! These words would be so foreign that the mind would have no symbols, no feelings, and no associations to equate them with! This would be the challenge! The mind would literally implode, freak out on itself, trying to understand the message. You see, in this split second, all of a sudden the individual would be left on his own. The government would be of no help. After all these years of earning Social Security, paying taxes, voting in elections, the role of Citizen would be meaningless. The government wouldn’t be able to help! How could it? You have 10 minutes to choose another form of existence. How badly would your mind disintegrate amongst this confusion? Now, individually, you would still be in a state of panic worrying about your job and your children and your car and the vacation coming up in two weeks. But none of these things matter in this moment. You have been given an assignment that is unlike anything you’ve ever heard. It would be akin to walking up to an alien. You see, the alien is here, right now on the planet. It is called death. You have no way to relate to this being. It is a very real being—just ask your ancestors who have already passed on. Death will come for you. It is already coming for you. Have no fear; it is on its way. So why fool around any longer? It’s like trying to avoid the tax collector. He, too, shows up every year. Death only shows up once. But it is a pretty big visit, really. Ancient cultures prepared for death’s visit. Ancient cultures were in tune with their bodies and souls. You see, all these things work together. The Western World has shut itself off from so many of its natural rhythms and natural ways of being, that by the time death does arrive, it is impossible to greet it with any sort of familiarity. Living requires being with all aspects of your being. It requires being aware. It requires knowing that certain practices must be part of life in order for life to be fully lived. In other words, you know you must take the car in for an oil change occasionally, and checkup, and tune-ups—these things are part of the natural responsibilities of car ownership. The car needs these things in order to run smoothly, and properly. Well—you’ve heard this before—why not you? The body, mind and soul need these same kinds of maintenance. The body gets it through our Western medicine. Your mind gets it through oour psychologies. What about your soul? And what about a maintenance system that is able to support body, mind and soul? These systems of maintenance were part of a lifelong program in ancient days to prepare humans for death. Death is an ally to living fully. When the government offices go screaming in the streets at 3:30 in the morning, “You have 10 minutes to find another form to inhabit,” don’t you think you’d need a few years of training to prepare for that shift? It is possible to make such a sudden shift in consciousness—for that is all death is. When these government officials go screaming in the streets with their bullhorns, you should be able to say, “Well, I don’t need 10 minutes. Let me go kiss my husband goodbye and spend eight of those minutes with him before I change over.” Calm, cool, and collected. For that is how smoothly you can change forms in death.
