After yellowing then dry, its physical body stops to live. The wind doesn’t even need to blow it to fall to earth. For a moment it hugged by another life, but for a moment later, that too will still fall to the earth and return to the soil.
Seeing the leaves falling to the ground, a mosquito that was out of reach of a frog shouted; “Hi frog, if you eat me, you will go to hell and vice versa, I will enter heaven.”
“It depends, whether you are spreading more viruses or helping, or precisely away from your ego; abandoning yourself, not identifying yourself with your body, mind, and intellect but with the Soul or True Spirit,” answered the frog. “I don’t know whether I will immediately reincarnate or become a ghost first, or have to wait for you until your time comes to enter another body if because I eat you, I owe to your spirit.”
“Phuihh! You will definitely become a ghost!”
“I don’t know that, but clearly, I don’t have unfulfilled desires such as sexual desire, addiction or things that can only be experienced with my physical body, such as anger, fear, greed, desire for revenge, etc. that can make my delicate body felt curious. “, the frog responded to the mosquito’s curse after pondering for a moment. “But, maybe I could be a ghost because my delicate body still has many desires, attachments, and unaware mistakes that weaken my spiritual power or because my low spiritual power makes me vulnerable to high-level ghosts attack.”
“Does that apply to me too?” mosquitoes asks.
“I do not know for sure. What is clear to me, maybe I could, not to eat you and fasting for a while, but if I do not eat at all and die, it is the same as suicide, and that means I have wasted the opportunity for spiritual growth and at the same time do a disgraceful act”.
After being present in the realm of existence where the leaf can achieve rapid spiritual growth and pay off the calculation of karma (the give-and-take account) in the shortest period of time, and the physical body has ceased to live, the Life that fills it smiles sees the conversation between mosquitoes and frogs.

Consider that fairies are nature spirits; since nature is chaotic and unpredictable, the fey are portrayed as capricious…
Everything that exists and can appear in the material realm seems to be constantly changing, at least the way we perceive and understand everything.
in the fifth dimensional sense, all that will be already is…
Aha! Finally, you talk about that! very exciting.
I think about the fifth dimension all the time, it is quite fascinating…

I do not believe in my friends in this matter, although there’s probably something on the subject
I’m glad to know your opinion, my friend. It doesn’t work at all that you believe or not.
You’ve touched so difficult “eternal question”!!! Have some cognitive dissonance about it cause from one’s hand identify myself as a spiritual being, from other hand – can’t believe in life after death. So-so.
One of the reasons I write this is because of that phenomenon. People fully believe in the existence of a pole but do not believe in the existence of other poles. Another reason is in order – hopefully – we are intrigued to prove for ourselves what we consider absent, or unreasonable.
Well, however, this is just a reflection.
Thanks for your thought, Anastasia.
I do believe in life after death, and for me that means heaven. Great post to hep get people thinking.
Thanks for your pov, LaJenna.
There is nothing wrong with your faith and perspective.
it is like the nice version of the frog and the scorpion…
In fairyland, everything becomes nice.
are you kidding me? those fey are right bastards!
Which Fey do you mean, brother?
all the unseelie and pretty much all the seelie as well…
Now I am curious about your point of view and reasons.
My conclusions are based on pretty much every story I’ve read with fairies in them- even when they aren’t being outright malicious, they’re playing passive aggressive pranks…
I see… I can’t judge or blame your conclusions which are based on pretty much every story you’ve read from writers who write the fairyland based on their imaginations.
I’ve never had any firsthand experience with the sidhe, but everything I’ve read is pretty unanimous…
However, I really appreciate your opinions and point of view.
The jury is still out with me and what happens after death as you know. I think of it often but no answers for sure.
I know… but we know as well that the answer will come not through our mind but consciousness. Hope you stay in serenity.
Indeed. And yes my goal is to stay at peace and in serenity.
That’s great! Let’s start it from your bliss.
Deep, deep story… but still I need to hold on to my physical body for now…
I have at least
3 dramas in the queue …
2 half written posts …
4 tutorials …
lol
You are so cute, my friend.
Have I ever ordered you to commit suicide?
I also still live and will maintain this body as long as quota is available. With that quota, I’ll still read and appreciate your dramas, posts, and tutorials.
IOne of the problems I have often experienced is that I define spirituality and what comes next differently than many people.
That said, awesome piece Albert.
Regardless of the story above, and what people in general or certain people believe, I respect your spiritual definition. But of course, I am curious about your point of view.
Now that I do not often share. Perhaps someday I will be more open about my views here but for now, I leave it as i don’t often share them.
So, that’s the filter that you mean which I’ve tried to describe it in your post… Hehehe…
That’s okay, my friend. I respect your privacy.
Thank you. It is a long-held line of not sharing often.
I can really understand it. Such a thing is very reasonable to be kept in private.
Nice one again, Albert. I wish I am as creative as you.
Thanks. You are creative too, just unfold from the box inside and use it.
Oh yeah, I am sure I can, I just need time, maybe. Have a great day.
Yep! I believe you can!
Have a great day too…
thanks I need that, I can.
You are very much welcome, my friend.
