single rooms and dormitories. Sleep, death and body
Recently I read a sentence. When Juli Zeh. It reads: "What do sleep and death together, is the fact that both ready for their guests only single rooms. You can take anybody. "It has taken me. Not because I do not "know" would have, no, that fact is somehow known. But this looseness with which this sentence is the middle of a novel, the word choice that evokes a spa-hotel, objectivity and tragedy together, combine the insurmountable barriers makes visible. Between life and death, between waking and sleeping, between me and thee. Although I share my life with other people, even the bed, now sleep and dies but each in isolation.
a guest you are on time. Arrival and departure are part of the guest to be. The only variable is the duration of the stay. To live on earth we need a body. By the way, a single room. Visit to receive is possible for a short time. But nothing more. Every night, we dive for many hours into what we call sleep. And if our sleep is disturbed or interrupted - that "in-my-be single" - we are not happy in the morning, sometimes not for the day in the group room equipped so well.
to have a body to sink into sleep every night and kick some point the face of death - once again to be born, to come back - we call life. As human beings live on Earth. The contrast between a loneliness, a for-itself, just for me and with me, his stop me in my own single room and the "concerns the world, "could not be greater. The concerns of the world, the other, the fellow human beings needs, the needs together and to just not be alone, to do something together to achieve and produce are universal human needs that we all know.
The world is full of singles. Some are next to each other, one above the other, each other or even remotely close to each other. The whole thing makes sense only when we are able to look at the entire building, to penetrate the texture, to name possibilities and impossibilities - may convert and track targets. External and internal. What are actually procure various individual rooms, as they are established? A glance, you can venture into it so again. And what are the windows of several rooms from the outside? Do they have curtains, they are open or closed, they may be painted?
It is said that apart from the body and a soul there. And a mind. And that the two could move more freely. Can escape the night or after the death of the single rooms to meet your peers. You can bring out-come and remove new and old, seeing a fresh wind. They take part in the big hotel on that, which means earth or world, as to that which we the unknown Dark call the inevitable gap.
very thing which the earth being full of singles, this collection of completed individuals who are left to sleep and death, has little to offer the spiritual world. This provides only seen from the Earth like, applies only to the transitions. There are on a spiritual level, only a group room, a large dormitory - no room, you could refer to themselves. Everything runs into each other, here the connections are obvious, the holes and urgent threats. Here, new projects were established, and appointments are made, decisions taken - then on the ground, in the shadows and fight be discharged with the single. Experience, we can only make a single room, not in the dormitory - there is something called insights.
And also applies to the sleep that we are as seen from the earth and our fellow human beings in a locked single rooms - from the big picture but of view, get out of the large group room food. Spiritual food - to be ready for the day in the earthly singles. And if we ask each other then in the morning as we slept and how we are, we ask about the nature of the single.
this in mind: "How are you? Would like to do something? "
