What if I don't want to be eaten?

I feel the best way to rid yourself of the chemical body when the time comes is to deep freeze it until solid, break down with high intensity sound waves until powder, boil until h2o evaporates. Once complete put remaining biomatter into a decomposing box with a tree sapling that uses it for nourishment, plant whole thing underground. Humans work great as fertilizer.

There's also a company that turns the cremated remains into a diamond.

Thought about it when i was planning to end my chemical body incarnation back in 2008 or so.

Realised that gems are not a fitting end to a transitory body, a new tree is a better end, in my view. But i did consider the diamond option.

Can you just will to leave whenever you desire?

I've tried reuniting with Ra in the past (by asking them deliberately), but didn't get very far beyond learning a few lessons.

Havent tried not coming back yet. I would imagine they would drag me back to my body screaming, or i would be allowed to stay. Either way, assuming that i were to "wander" into the astral and find someone who would be willing to "kill" my body and just agree that they would do it while I explain what i'm doing to "ra" and tell them to "pick me up now" or this chemical body expires.

Thats the way it can be done, for me, but its like taking a giant dump on a wedding cake and is in general a major butthole thing to do. Edit: (to clarify, i feel that doing this would result, most likely, in my higher self appearing before me and doing the fonzie move of going "ayeeeeeee, whatcha doing" then talk with me and return me to the timeline before i decided its a good idea and then blank out my memory and direct me in a another direction. Doesnt mean i couldnt "stay there" but i would return here anyway almost regardless of my conditions here so. cant really.)

It would also, by my understanding, be dangerous to the soul in question by a rather large margin.

I dont know if I could, but back in 2008 I was simply determined to die regardless of harvest or no harvest. I was imprisoned against the law and was on a hunger strike, so i wrote a will before being sent off and by the 30th day it wasnt looking that hot. But i made it back, i think.

I can't imagine anyone being able to kill you while you're in the astral. It would be like dying in a dream. You'd just wake up in your body again.

I've heard it said that when you astral project, you're sending a copy of your astral body. Part of your astral body stays in your physical body.

I'd love to be able to spend some time in the astral, working with guides. The experiences I've had have been short lived, and not really all that interesting. I think with practice I'll be able to explore the Universe.

This is such a great thread. Reading through the original post gave me some catalyst to process, and many of the subsequent posts allowed me to grow from it quite rapidly.

Amusingly, believing that the truth truly is subjective is one of my biggest mental blocks. My religious fears make me feel like admitting to myself that truth is subjective is like an open door for all the dementors and specters to rush through and eat me and the whole world...because if truth is subjective then meaning is subjective which means there is no meaning to anything at all!

And on the flip side there's the parable of the prince and the magician which resonates with me deeply and says to me that the truth being subjective is a good thing. Because it means I can create whatever I want without being subject to the limitations of my shaped-by-earth-life mind. Its ok for meaning to be subjective because we are the creators of meaning.

Eventually the power of the latter perspective should reach a level sufficient to achieve escape velocity from the gravity of my fears...unfortunately my daily life tends to reinforce said fears regularly...

The ironic thing is, as long as I'm afraid I'm probably enabling exactly what I said I'm afraid of...being fed on

If truth is subjective, it does not mean There is no meaning. But primarily opposite of that, in that what you deem meaning is meaning. You are all that there is. You are me, I am you. Don't be fooled by instruments. The Law is One. So subjective truth, from an instrumental point of view, is nothing but an interpretation of The One Infinite. Or really, how well do you know yourself?

When coming to thoughts of this nature. Examine how the true self reacts. What does the true self want? The True Self, can not be contained. It does not prescribe to any ideal, restraint, or modality. It just is...
