Life after death

Hi Jed,
I have a question which I'm not sure you can answer but I'm
gonna ask it anyways. I really need to know.
So when Jed McKenna dies (or any other "enlightened person")
will it be like watching the rest of the play just without you
on stage, in other words, will consciousness watch the universe
unfold further, or will it just all be over and you will just
rest as nothingness for eternity?
I hope this makes sense

Dear E:
Welcome to the forum... and that's a good question.
However, it's the wrong question. You might want to ask yourself
something like, ''Who is it that is asking.''.... or ''What am I
fearing"?
Speaking from my own experience, I was never born and thus can
never die. There is a body in this appearance, and it will
eventually become worm food. I couldn't care less because it has
nothing to do with the real me.
I am 99.99% confident that this will be your experience... some
day. But, who knows and who cares. Be patient, relax and
breathe... and do the best you can to understand your control
issues.
Love ya, Jed.

"What am I fearing"....well that's easy. I'm afraid that I will
have to spend 2 years in excruciating agony :D :D
No but seriously though, thank you for your answer. This is
basically the question that I've been asking myself for the last
few months more or less 24/7 and it has brought up so
much.....well...shit. Which is really good.
It's just that I had this...let's say experience, which made me
really scared and it made me realize that this is not at all
what I want. But I don't think that any of this is in my
control, so I'll just hope for the best :-\
PS: I didn't really think that there was a simple answer the
question, but it was worth a try. Thank you anyways. I'll just
keep doing my thing

Hi Jed,
A couple of questions have popped up and my hope is that you can
provide me with some insight.
1. Let's start with the most serious one: Looking back I see now
that what fueled my search for enlightenment was a deep seated
sort of demon/pain-body thing. In a way it always felt like it
was burried under many layers, like it was really far away yet
extremely accute. Now I feel like I have digged all the way down
through all sorts of crap to the very source of it. But now I am
stuck here. It really feels like a demon has his teeth in my
legs and is constantly pulling me down and never letting go,
which makes everyday life a drag. Now I know that this is a
great opportunity, but I'm afraid that if I immerse myself fully
in the pain I will go further than I had intended. I very much
think that this is one of those demons that can throw me off
this cliff that you talk about. And I am definitely not ready
for that. Maybe some day, but I really just want to have a few
years of living a normal life, being myself, having experiences.
I mean, I am still so young. All the work I have done I did in
order to clean out the prism of self, not to get rid of the
prism altogether. So the least I should get is a couple of years
as my self, right?
So what choice do I have? Well, I thought that maybe the pain I
am feeling has nothing to with psychological pain, maybe there
is just something wrong with my brain? Maybe the best thing
would be to see a psychiatrist so that he can prescribe me some
pills that balance out whatever inbalance there is and all will
be good. I'm also thinking that I don't have to take them
indefinitely. I could just take them for a few years, enjoy the
shit out of my life, have realtionships, get educated etc. and
then I stop taking them, immerse myself in the pain, accumulate
enough dissatisfaction to jump off the cliff and then that's
that.
So that's pretty much what's been going on in my mind. Am I an
absulute lunatic? Am I just fooling myself by thinking that the
first step is that imminent? Is my plan just really stupid?
Could it work?
2. In your newest book, Jed Talks #1, you say that you can name
about a dozen living poeple who are awake and you would estimate
that there are about two dozen alive today. That seems to be a
really low number to me. I mean, in Damnedest you said that you
can account for about 1-2 cases of enlightenment a year. So
what, you only taught for 5 years? And also the whole thing with
this forum and navigator series and what not....it just strikes
me as very strange that you only know of twelve cases of
spiritual enlighenment, but what do I know.
Anyway, thank you for your time and all that you do.
Love, E

I'm not much of a statistician, in fact I am terrible at it. Who
really knows. I can only make estimates and speak of my own
experiences. I would that that from 3 to 5 percent the Series
students have reached T/R, but once again, some of the smarter
ones just keep their mouths shut. I'm not that smart.
Love ya, Jed.

Thank you and sorry about that dumb comment.
The only problem is that I still think I can controll anything.
Maybe I should find out if this is really the case before I go
down these rabbit holes.
So one question. Is it ok if I do the spiritual autolysis here
in this forum, or should I do it on a word file and just use the
forum if I have any specific questions?

I read, and have read, every word written to me. I'm not
inclined to read your S/A.
If you have a specific sticking point and a question about it,
please write on the forum.
Love ya, Jed.

I got it! I had an epiphany!!! It is so obvious. I’ve always
been trying to do something. I have always tried to achieve
something. But all I gotta do is look. Let go of the tiller for
a second and look around for things that seem to be me and then
just question the reality of it. So simple

Now I really only have one thing that I've been stuck with that
maybe you can help me with. Do you think that all depression is
just caused by perception, or is it really the case that some
depression is just due to some inbalance in the brain and should
be taken care of in that way.
Because there is this depression that never leaves me no matter
how I feel otherwise. I can sit in meditation and be in a state
of absolute contentment and yet still feel depression. I just
don't know if the depression will eventually go away by itself,
or if I should try out medication. I know you are probably the
wrong person to ask this but maybe you do think that sometimes
medication is the way to go.
