Death Deconstructed

I want to step through the door full of curiosity, wondering: what is it going to be like, that cottage of darkness? ~ Mary Oliver

Jiddu Krishnamurti

Can you look at death without the image of death?

.

We come at last to the
dark and enter in.

We are given bodies

newly made out of their absence

from one another in the light

of the ordinary day.

We come to the space between
ourselves, the narrow
doorway, and pass through

into the land of the
wholly loved.

~ Wendell Berry

.

Sri Ramana Maharshi

There are no others.

Thich Nhat Hahn

.

Water is free from the birth
and death of a wave.

.

Life is a great sunrise.

I do not see why death should not be
an even greater one.

~ Vladimir Nabokov

.

Oversoul, Alex Grey

.

And I will show that
nothing can happen more
beautiful than death.

~ Walt Whitman

(In my sleep I dreamed this poem)

.

Someone I loved once gave me
a box full of darkness.

It took me years to understand

that this, too, was a gift.

~ Mary Oliver

.

Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

I cried when i was born, and I shall die laughing.

.

For we are only the rind and the leaf.

The great death, that each of us
carries inside, is the fruit.

Everything enfolds it.

~ Rainer Maria Rilke

.

I am not I.

I am this one walking beside me
whom I do not see, whom
at times I manage to visit, and whom
at other times I forget;

who remains calm and silent while I talk,
and forgives gently, when I hate,

who walks where I am not,
who will remain standing
when I die.

~ Juan Ramón Jiménez

.

.

"Though lovers be lost, love shall not;

And death shall have no dominion."

~ Dylan Thomas

.

.

They can be like a sun, words.

They can do for the heart
what light can
for a field.

~ St. John of the Cross

.

.

When the soul is naughted and
transformed . . . she is so full of
peace that though she press her
flesh, her nerves, her bones, no
other thing comes forth from
them than peace.

~ Saint Catherine of Genoa
