I have been working with the Death Archetype lately. This is the guy I'm talking about:
but he's not so scary, once you get to know him a bit. Perhaps we should just call him the 'Transformation of the Body' lol.
I am of the belief that once Thought Forms are engendered, they are fully in the realm of the physical. That is, they are as real as an apple or gravity and operate in the physical space. They are no longer mental as such, even though the mind is their mother and father.
Thought forms can be pervasive, inhibiting, or exhilarating. One class of pernicious thought forms could be classed as phobias. Irrational fears. Fears that have zero basis in any evidence based analytical mindset. And yet we all still have them. Some buried behind layers of self-justified reasonings.
for eg, one of my friends has been unemployed for two years and is struggling to deal with the issue of disempowerment. So he has gone to the opposite extreme and has been immersing himself in the Abraham Hicks material, better known as the Law of Attraction. The particular Thought Form he has created is the one around "you create your own reality". Now on the surface some elements of this statement are true. One's experiences are drawn into the self for whatever catalytic reasons we (our Higher Self) deemed necessary. Yet, taking this statement literally - you create your own reality - in all aspects leads to a solipsistic experience, and one that is highly distorted. For eg, my friend thinks that when he orders his groceries online and when they are delivered and something is missing, he did it, and when he orders some computer part online, and it is out of stock, he did it. This is a thought form that begets madness.
anyway, back to my friend Death. I have been understanding that death, also known as Transformer of the Body can act as an agent of liberation; when one is ready and willing, many of the Thought Forms which have been plaguing our experience can be released and our body (physical experience) will no longer be distorted by their presence.
as such, death is a lightening process; and much like the scythe removing the flesh, one can dismiss those thought forms which cloud our correct perception. Ie, that snakes will not eat you alive (well, at least not in most parts of the world lol), that people really are friendly (agoraphobia), or whatever fear-based concerns that one might be carrying around with oneself as we move through physical space.
death really is a good guy in the end
