Thank you Marga for doing the reading (I am not doing) and offering up the gem of the teaching to Remember…not intellectually, but innately re-membering - returning to wholeness - again and again.
It makes me feel so fortunate to read that dying well depends on loving our lives, our stories, fully. If we love, we don't feel fear: we are peaceful and relaxed. It certainly sounds like something to practice as I age further - a great way to live the rest of my life! Thanks for this
I love how you bring it back to love in a very clear and simple (not scary) way. When I came face to face with my own mortality at 28 I knew that from then on I wanted to choose to be a better version of myself. You’ve simplified that for me - I just wanted more love, to learn the practice of choosing love every time.❤️
Also there’s the song on the Graceful Passages album, one of the first songs where Ram Dad is talking and he keeps repeating, “Let yourself be loved. You’ve got to let yourself be loved.” I listened to that whole album many times driving back and forth from my house to my parents house while my dad was dying and after he passed. It filled my grief so deeply, like a salve.
Thanks for this, Jane – I'm going to go find that album. It's powerful what hearing the right message at the right time can do for opening the heart, isn't it?
Here’s what it looks like-
