Credo: Conclusions (*)

I believe that,
at the moment of our death,
we are instantly rejoined with all that we ever were.

We will exist simultaneously
with all the events that have made up our lives.

We will be aware:
we will have the power,
at all temporal levels of our existence,
to change
all aspects of our lives,
constantly,
for the better.

We will labour with joy.

The changes that we make will spiral,
a constantly changing Mandelbrot fractal,
and we will exist in all of the spirals,
and be aware.

We spiral inward and outward,
in all dimensions,
each new loop swirling towards perfection.

We will know that,
although we will always strive to achieve a perfection
that seems attainable,
perfection exists only in the perfect joy
of being responsible and appreciative
in this moment
of existence.

I know that this is true:
I am doing it now.

I am living in this moment,
knowing that this moment is only
one constantly changing spiral,
in which each fractal iteration
contains an awareness of self.

This is Brahman,
and I am part of it.

* My conclusions are based upon the following sources:

For moral guidance:

The Torah, The Koran, The Bible, The Vedas, The Upanisads, Gautama Siddharta, Gandalf, Terry Goodkind, walking in the fog with Ranger, dear Terry, my children, and, last but by no means least, the incredible Sherri S. Tepper.

For intellectual satisfaction:

Mandelbrot, Quantum Mechanics in general, and String Theory and Brane Cosmology in particular, Pachelbel’s “Canon”, M. C. Escher, Pink Floyd’s “Animals”, the wonder of language, and the foundation of my life, Robert Frost’s wonderfully ironic “The Road Not Taken.”

Interesting thoughts. The sources you list are very extensive,yet i feel there's a thread of
truth in all even on the ones not listed.
