We were never born
"I have lots of things to teach you now, in case we ever meet,
concerning the message that was transmitted to me under a pine tree on a
cold winter day. It said that Nothing Ever Happened, so don't worry.
It's all like a dream. Everything is ecstasy, inside. We just don't know
it because of our thinking-minds. But in our true blissful essence of
mind is known that everything is alright forever and forever and
forever.
Close your eyes, let your hands and nerve-ends drop, stop breathing for 3 seconds, listen to the silence inside the illusion of the world, and you will remember the lesson you forgot, It is all one vast awakened thing. I call it the golden eternity.
We were never really born, we will never really die. It has nothing to do with the imaginary idea of a personal self, other selves, many selves everywhere: Self is only an idea, a mortal idea.
I know this from staring at mountains months on end. They never show any expression, they are like empty space, but the emptiness of space will never crumble away because it was never born."
Jack Kerouac
