Mankind’s history is replete with dozens upon dozens of boom and bust
cycles. Additionally, there have been prophets of doom and gloom stating
with absolute certainty the world was ending soon and we are without hope
and there is nothing we can do about it, woe be to us. These joyless individuals have
been around since man first started keeping records. The one thing they
all have in common is their perfect batting average: 0. Every single
one has been wrong, the world has not ended, their dire predictions not
with standing and today’s doom and gloomers are as wrong as those who stood at the center of Rome prophesying the end of days 2000 years ago.
But let's say one comes along and gets it right, now what? Let's be clear, no matter how much we exercise, eat right or take care of ourselves, this fleshy conveyance carrying around our consciousness is going to stop functioning at some point. So each of us have to decide, are we this body or something more. I believe the evidence is overwhelming that we are much greater than this limited flesh, so physical death which awaits us all, as far as our Spirit is concerned really is meaningless. We are Spiritual beings experiencing being human, not human-beings searching for the miraculous. Our Spirit eternal, death a mere change in perception, the journey of awakening continues. So when the next “expert” delivers solemnly the latest prophecy of doom, we can smile and be of good cheer because we know the truth.
