Word of Ungod -- continued... 8) Body-being Corpse Corpse [moves] [happens-not] [moves] Translation: "We never experience our own death, no matter how many come to the funeral." Not that we don't die, but that we never know we have died. How can that be? Of course we know we die. Ungod, however, means know in the sense of experience. Body beings never experience their own death. They experience the death of others, but not of themselves. Which means that, in our experience, we live forever. Not so, of course, in experience of others, but what do we care. That's their experience, not ours. And we will experience their deaths, but they will not. Experiencing, in other words, has a strange eternal quality. To the experiencer it never ends, this business of experiencing. And there it is: eternal life, right here on earth, in our bodies; we never needed heaven after all. prev [an error occurred while processing this directive] © 2000 by Dwight Lyman
