Β Β Β Β Β ~Brahadaranyaka Upanishad

Death is so certainβ¦.
Β The 18th of August 2022 an auspicious day of Janamasthami a Divine time and moment Β in the energy and my heart reached out for my dear sweet loved one . I have lost myΒ furry baby Gaia yesterday. Β It was suddenβ¦.. Even thoughΒ acknowledging and keeping the end in mind is the Highest Truth we as Souls have come on the earth plane to live, yet reality rips the heart .
Why is pain so unbearable?Β β¦. why is separation from a dear one so traumatic ? Births, rebirths well understood but the process of death, still feared β¦
The Soul life, full of tests of pure overcomingβ¦ we sail through the waters calm and disturbed we keep gripping ourselves so hard at times that the focus of embracing and feeling the Divine intervention andΒ presence Β sometimes goes unacknowledged. Reaching the shore we emerge with an unknown attachedΒ fear within us of loosing the ones we love. Sadly many a times, our truth our Divinity is left behind lurking and gulping the turbulent waters Β of Β self inflicted Β sorrows, baggages Β and struggles overwhelming our potential to trust the process of simple surrender.Β
Aah death! If only we keep allowing and understanding Divinity weaving and creating itself in every little mystic formations of lifeβs encounters, Β can we truly touch peace and experience pure love of this very Soul and the purpose it walks. And I am still learning and learningβ¦. deaths and deaths of the family and my furries, the realization is nudging me to make immense Β peace towards death in living each day with a rare account .
Just been three months in Pune . Had to leave behindΒ both my kitties Zeus and Gaia with my daughter in Canada. Could not risk getting them to India as being snub nosed Persian cats , they could suffer seriously from breathing problems in the flight because of temperature fluctuations and noise which can be very fatal for them. The Vet had warned to not make them travel anymore once I flew with them to Canada.
The bubbly little Gaia was hale and hearty till last week , full of life, playful she was the most gentle little creature who loved cute soft cuddles and tummy rubs.Β From a mere thirty days baby to now Β 6 years she grew up into being extremely joyful , strong and a beautiful furry. Royal Canine wet fish food was her favorite. She would rise from her deepest sleep to have it. Β So much so that she would gulp down her food quickly and politely approach Zeus ( her wonderful partner) and he would allow her to eat his food too. Β She was the heart of the house.
Suddenly since last week,Β she started to loose weight and would not eat properly. All recommendations to change of food and medicine could not cure her.
Only yesterday her condition deteriorated suddenly and my kids rushed with her to the Veterinary Hospital.
My daughter kept holding her in her arms and Gaia kept looking at her with her weak eyes and meowed lightlyΒ , as if saying her last goodbye.
At three a.m. I got a video call from my daughter, she was crying inconsolably and moved the camera towards Gaia who was almost lying still on the examination table at the hospital. The Vet was standing next to the table β¦everything seemed gloomy. I could sense the seriousness in the atmosphere β¦ no amount of pampering , or offering her favorite food could awaken herβ¦.she made me feel that we are all in a way just the sameβ¦when the last minute arrivesβ¦
My son in law who was in tears too, mustered some courage ( as they all knew that Gaia was my heart) and said, β The Doctor needs your consent in putting her to sleep, for she is in a lot of pain and suffering and jaundice has spread and has affected her whole bodyβ.
It was something so unexpected, and this sudden news was just shocking β¦yet another learning to livingβ¦.
I was miles apart from her in Indiaβ¦..With a heavy heart I had to consentβ¦looking at myΒ little baby Gaia goβ¦.She crossed over the rainbow bridge at almost 3a.m.
The word βCONSENTβ hit me to the core β¦..Who am I to consent to what He my Divine Hari has already consentedβ¦
βEvery deed, every authority every breath and every being,Β human or little pets entering my life or in this big Universe Β is already Consented by Him. For life is only purely Β passing throughΒ death and deathsβ.Β
We all reunite with each other when the bond of love is strong spiritually and I am sure I shall be reunited with my little baby Gaia and get to hear her squeaky purring again one day.
From a little lighting starπΉ
To a beautiful ladyπΉ
Zeus her partner never could stay without herβ¦. Itβs traumatic for the him too to lose his dear heartβ¦ Β pray he copes by His Graceβ¦
βGaia my heart ! You left me more wiser, more open to my very Self, and all I ask, when I depart, May your compassionate graceful whiff of care help me sail through peacefully. For you truly came as His Grace βO Fragrant Spiritβ.
Rest in peace my little lady.Β You live on and I am sure you have a bigger Divine purpose to attend. Thank you for touching our lives. Forgive us if we have faltered in anywayπWe love you dearly.
na jaayate’ mriyate’ vaa kadaachin naayam bhuthva bhavithaa na bhooyah: / ajo nithyah saasvato’yam puraano na hanyate’ hanyamaane’ sareere’
The Spirit is neither born nor does it die at any time. It does not come into being or cease to exist. It is unborn, eternal, permanent, and primeval. The Spirit is not destroyed when the body is destroyed. (2.20)
