"The Angel of Death Rocks!"
The Weekly Word #13 ~ September, 2007
The Toltecs say that the Angel of Death always walks with you, behind
your left shoulder. She is the most powerful guide to a joyful and
creative life on the Toltec path. She is there to remind the warrior
that everything in life is temporary. In the Toltec tradition, the
Angel of Death is the source of all your possessions. She owns everything
that you have—your car, your home, job, relationships, money,
youth, even your body and life itself.
Even though the Angel of Death is a powerful and precious guide to
the Toltec Warrior, she is also the most feared. The Angel of Death
has lent you everything you possess, and when she is ready, she will
ask for it back. For the common man, death represents the ultimate
loss of these closely held identities, and thus the ultimate fear—annihilation.
The spiritual warrior knows that the Angel is always there, and he
cannot control when she will take something from him.
The spiritual warrior lives in gratitude for everything the Angel
has lent him, rather than in fear of losing it. The biggest surrender
on the Toltec path is letting go of the illusion that you own or can
control any of your possessions-- including your life. The Angel of
Death is always with you, inviting you to live in the present, to
love freely, to live the life you want to live. She reminds you that
this life is temporary, and you will die—it could be this moment
or any time. You can be ready by surrendering to her what is already
hers, and live in absolute gratitude for her abundant generosity.
That is the life of the Toltec warrior. That is personal freedom.
When the warrior embraces the Angel of Death in complete surrender
and gratitude, she becomes the Angel of Life. When you surrender to
her, you are free to live your life to the fullest expression of who
you are. The Angel of Life becomes your guide to Life, in all of
its abundance and wonder.
The Angel of Death Rocks!! She is the Angel of Life! Surrender the
illusion that you own or can control the possessions and outcomes
of your life, and join the Angel of Life as a Joydancer ~ dancing
in joy with life!
