Is there life after birth?

Henri Nouwen wrote this beautiful story, which is very well suited as a metaphor for my vision of the world: An unborn twins converses in his mother’s womb.

“Say, do you believe in life after birth?” Asks a twin.

“Yes, in any case! In here we can grow and be strong for what will come outside, “said the other twin.

“That’s nonsense,” said the first.

“There can be no life after birth, how should it look like?”

“So exactly I too do not know that. But it will certainly be much brighter than here. And maybe we’ll run around and eat with your mouth.”

“I’ve never heard such nonsense. To eat with the mouth? What a crazy idea. There’s the umbilical cord that feeds us. And how are you going to walk around? The umbilical cord is much too short.”

“But certainly, it will go, everything is then just a little bit different.”

“You’re crazy! There was never a come back from after birth. With the birth of life everything ends. Punktum.”

“I admit that nobody knows really what life will be like after birth. But I know that we will see our mother and that she will take care of us. “

“Mother ??? You do not believe of a mother! Where is she?”

“Well, here – all around us. We live in her and through her. Without her, we would not be! “

“Nonsense, I have never noticed anything of a mother, so she does not exist.

“Yet, sometimes, when we are very quiet, you can hear her sing or feel when she caresses our world …”

My World

My idea of ​​the world is that everything is spirit. The whole universe exists as a separate knowledge area in the consciousness of the Creator of the universe. All entities that exist in the universe are spiritual beings with species-specific skills, individual consciousness content and degrees of freedom that enable them to follow their species-specific instincts.
