Please discuss so that cris, who is in search of immortality, will not close this thread.
The first and most important step in obtaining immortality is to become AWAKE.
To wake up you must realize that you are not your body and you are not your brain. Both your body and your brain, which is part of your body, perish.
Our body is like a piece of fruit which gets old and becomes fertilizer.
It is the soul and the light which powers the self which is immortal. Some call it Brahman.
When you need to eat food, need rest, need sex, and all the other needs which you take care of, you are your body. The physical world is your body and will perish.
When you begin to think about what happens after you die, where do you go, etc. you are becoming awake.
When everyone in the world realizes that we all have this soul/light in us and that we all come from the same source of light, there will be an end of war, so spread it around if you like. Wake up the world. The end of war is not my intention but, most would say it is an excellent biproduct.
When you begin to examine yourself and the things which are contained therein, you are awake at that time. When you continually focus on that those things such as, "where does this behavior come from", or where is he/she coming from?, you are awake and immortal.
There is a danger because now that you are immortal and you know that there is part of you which survives the death of your body, you must know where to go when you die or you will be lost in eternity. I won't talk about that now because cris will say I'm preaching. I just want to wake the world up from its sleep.
