[FairfieldLife] Re: throes
FFL, thanks for the condolences. They have come from around the FFL world. Gertie came to meditation later in her life. She was a life long social activist whose admonition to her spiritual practitioner children was, “..why can’t you just be good Democrats?” But she learned to meditate and then met Ammachi and the two changed her spiritual life. She moved to meditating Fairfield late in life and was a contributing member to communal Fairfield bringing her bright good light everywhere she went. Family and friends have cremated her body. There is a memorial service this weekend. I am working up this song to sing with a harmony group of transcendental meditationists here in Fairfield, Iowa at the memorial tomorrow: Holly Springs There is a house not made with hands, Eternal, and on high; And here my spirit, waiting stands, Till God shall bid it fly. Chorus: I long to see my friends again And hear them sweetly say; Come, weary dove, here is thy home, Then fold thy wings and stay. Shortly this prison of my clay Must be dissolved and fall; Then, Oh my soul, with joy obey Thy heav’nly Father’s call. (Chorus) I long to see my friends again And hear them sweetly say; Come, weary dove, here is thy home, Then fold thy wings and stay. -Isaac Watts 1709 // Dear Ones My precious mother[in-law], Gertie has passed into the Life Eternal. Sweetly, and without any struggle at about 4:50am this morning. Thank you for your prayers and best wishes. I know she left on a tsunami of Love! Love and all blessings, Ah, that final release. I remember feeling, not sorrow, but great relief when both of my parents were free of their ailing bodies. I am not sure which is harder - the labors of being born or the labors of dying. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, wrote : At least you get something to eat shortly after being born.

We, as the living, would have a much different experience than her, watching her, grieving her or simply just waiting for that death moment. When my father died at home from esophageal cancer and he had made the decision to have his feeding tube removed it took about three days for him to die. Eventually he went into a coma (a combination of starvation and opiates) and quite soon after that, died. But his body did continue to function up to that point, as if its great mission was to keep the cells fed with oxygen so that the heart could keep pumping and thus the machine would keep working. I think it would be so much better if we could simply put our attention on the body ceasing its labors and we could stop the machine and simply move on to whatever might, or might not, come next. ..Remember, our mortal state; How frail our lives! how short the date! Where is the man that draws his breath, Safe from disease, secure from death? While we see whole nations die, Our flesh and sense repine and cry; Must death forever rage and reign?
