What is the force that animates our physical bodies? That very same force is the one that operates the process of decomposing after we die. Sometimes we forget that when our bodies go through physical death, their intelligence doesn’t end. It continues working. Our physical bodies have an intelligence that is separate from our mind. The body was smart before we could even talk or think and we’ve been playing catch up ever since. This boggles the mind because death is supposed to be the end of everything smart. To know that the same intelligence that’s at work when we’re alive is the same one working after we die can be frightening for some and interesting for others. It’s like life and death are the exact same thing at some level.
For me this is the reason I believe in a higher power. That it’s something here in me that is very close but also very far and beyond my mind. And both are true and applying themselves through me.
One thing I’ve learnt about nature is that two opposing entities can live in harmony with another, and that harmony creates a charge that usually creates a whole new experience. The left side of the brain is so different from the right and yet they are intertwined together to form our balanced experience. If the left side of the brain was connected to the left side of our body and the right to the right, we would be made up of two very different sides. We would have no sense of balance.
The technology that we are is far more advanced than anything we’ve ever created. Artificial intelligence is designed to mimic what we are.
