As socio-political tensions rise, natural disasters escalate and the world collapses into its dénouement of history. Many countries, if not already at war, are preparing their citizens for war—to be at ground zero. In other words, they are preparing for death. But what is of greatest importance in this moment is to be spiritually prepared for death. Shunyamurti offers some questions for us to ask ourselves in order to process our honesty and intent and in order to directly confront this imminent inevitability. Am I aligned with the will of God? Have I fulfilled the mission I was sent here to achieve—my responsibility to love and serve the light? Ultimately, this alignment can be felt only in the heart and results in a dead mind, an ascension to the fundamental Source of mind for whom all that appears is an illusion. To prepare for death is to prepare for eternal life, to disappear as who one thought one was.
