That is a good point. If you have total awareness, you have to be proactive because you pretty much know everything. If you are aware of everything, you no longer need to react because you know what is coming. If you are an infinite being, capable of drawing on infinite experiences, then gaining total awareness of this infinity would be something that will move you closer to becoming more proactive and no longer questioning or worrying about unforeseen events, like a car accident.
Michael, I find your insights very intriguing and moving towards complete understanding and awareness is something we all should be striving for to understand our true nature. Part of it is intuition, an internal knowing about having a soul or spirit, or whatever you wish to label it as, but actually feeling that this is definitely there, that there is something more than your body, that is worth more than any intellectual pursuit as it does not need to be proven, as you simply feel it. This is, of course, my humble opinion and how I choose to relate to the world. I did not choose this belief system, it chose me. It is how I have always felt, without anyone telling me for or against this belief system.
Some people may be fearful of death, and as George Carlin once said, "It's when we find out where we go." I'm very curious as to where I go, but I do know for sure I will go somewhere, the fundamental part of my being. Just a few thoughts...
