PHYSICAL IMMORTALITY? CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR…
Someone who desires an immortal body is either a very loving and sympathetic enlightened being who has already experienced their own death with full conscious awareness still intact and compassionately returns to life because they wish to remain longer to help enlighten the more suffering beings still stuck in darkness……
……Or that person is an unenlightened misguided fearful fool who will stop at nothing to attain immortality because they have not yet faced their own death with full consciousness and are therefore deeply afraid of dying.
Anyone who desires physical immortality either possesses Godlike Love for All, or else is the biggest moron who ever lived.
Paramahansa Yogananda once stated something to the effect that even God would not punish a sinner with the curse of physical immortality because it is much too cruel a sentence for even the worst being who ever lived. Think about it. Wouldn’t you be quite tired of life after a few thousand years in the same body? Perhaps even as relatively few as 200 or 300 years? Most people are sick of it before they reach their middle-age.
In the fictional novel Interview with the Vampire (by Anne Rice) there is a character named Armand who has been a vampire for 400 years (and claims to be the world’s oldest). Even he laments how there are incredibly few vampires who have enough strength for eternity.
The promise of physical immortality is something that can only be granted to an enlightened being. And even then, there are few who accept such a gift. But they have existed and still do exist today…and are still out there.
I refer the reader to the life’s work of author/researcher Leonard Orr if further information is desired.
