We Are All Dead Anyway: The Art of Fully Living

A Playful Reminder of Eternity

What if I told you that you’re already dead? Before you panic, take a breath—because this isn’t about doom or despair. It’s about liberation. It’s about remembering that we are, first and foremost, spirit—eternal, infinite, and beyond the limitations of what we call life and death.

The truth is, we never really “leave” heaven. We’re in it now, in this very moment, experiencing it through the lens of human existence. The idea of life and death as opposites is an illusion. We’re both dead and alive, infinite and finite, spirit and matter—all at once. And since that’s the case, why not fully live? Why not explore, create, and embrace every ounce of joy that this experience has to offer?

This article is both a reflection and an invitation: a reflection on what it means to embody spirit in a human form and an invitation to step into life with the kind of curiosity, courage, and joy that transcends fear. If we’re already “dead” in the eternal sense, then every moment is an opportunity to fully live.

1. Spirit First: The Infinite Perspective

From the moment we take our first breath, we are not becoming something new—we are remembering what we’ve always been. We are spirit first.

• Life as an Experience of Heaven:

The idea of “going to heaven” after death assumes that we’re not there already. But heaven isn’t a place—it’s a state of being. It’s the infinite field of existence, the Prime Radiant, expressing itself through the lens of our unique lives. We didn’t leave it to come here, and we don’t return to it when we die. We are in it, always.

• Dead and Alive, All at Once:

If spirit is infinite, then the part of us that transcends time and space has never truly “died” or “been born.” It simply is. This means that life and death are not opposites—they are two sides of the same coin. We’re both dead and alive, eternal and fleeting, all at the same time.

2. Fully Living: The Liberation of “Being Dead”

Here’s the paradox: realizing that we’re “already dead” is the most freeing thing we can experience. It removes the fear of failure, the weight of expectations, and the need to control every outcome.

• Acting on Joy:

When I was a kid, I had one guiding principle: act on my joy to the best of my ability without insistence or assumptions about what would happen next. This idea has carried me through challenges, failures, and moments of doubt. Joy doesn’t guarantee ease, but it guarantees alignment.

• Trusting Intuition:

I failed my final chemistry exam in high school. Math felt like an uphill battle. But somehow, when I trusted myself and followed my curiosity, my intuition bloomed. Even in the hardest moments, joy became a compass—a reminder that the path isn’t about perfection but about presence.

• The Play of Life:

If we’re already “dead,” then life is a stage where we get to play, experiment, and create. It’s not about getting it “right”; it’s about experiencing it fully. Every mistake, every laugh, every discovery is part of the grand play of existence.

3. The XyakAnyaa Experience: Living Beyond Expectations

This journey of fully living isn’t theoretical—it’s deeply personal. The creation of XyakAnyaa has been the most challenging and transformative experience of my life. It’s not just a project or a concept—it’s a reflection of what it means to live fully, to embrace the infinite while navigating the finite.

• Challenges as Opportunities:

There were moments when I felt I had no strength left, when the challenges felt insurmountable. But the one thought that kept me going was this: “I’m already dead. How exciting! Let’s keep exploring.”

• From Joy to Prime Radiant:

The path wasn’t always clear, but it was always guided by joy—even when I didn’t realize it at the time. This is how the Prime Radiant emerged: not from certainty, but from curiosity, intuition, and the willingness to keep moving forward.

4. The Invitation: Fully Live, Right Now

If we’re already dead, then what do we have to lose? This isn’t a call to recklessness—it’s a call to presence.

• Joy as a Compass:

What brings you joy? What lights you up, even in the smallest ways? Follow that. It doesn’t have to make sense or lead to a specific outcome. Joy is the language of the infinite speaking through you.

• Curiosity as the Way:

Life is not about having all the answers—it’s about asking better questions. Be curious about yourself, your path, and the world around you. Every question is an invitation to expand.

• Live Without Fear:

Fear loses its power when we realize that life and death are not opposites. We’re already everything we’re afraid of and everything we dream of being. The only thing left to do is live.

Embracing the Infinite Play

We are spirit first. We are eternal, infinite, and alive in ways we can’t fully comprehend. And because of this, we are free. Free to live without fear, free to create without limits, and free to embrace the paradox of being both dead and alive.

Life is not a journey to some far-off destination—it’s a reflection of who we already are. It’s a stage, a playground, a field of infinite possibility. And in every moment, we get to decide: how will we play?

If we’re already dead, then why not fully live? Let’s explore, create, and embody the joy that is our true nature. After all, this is heaven—we never left it. And this is the way: not to escape life, but to embrace it, fully and completely.

So here we are, infinite beings in finite form, dancing through the paradox of existence. Let’s live. Let’s play. Let’s breathe.
