If You Live 10,000 Years

A Master once said to me, "If you live 100 years, you will live 500. And if you live 500 years you will live 1000. And if you live 1000 years you will live 5000 and if you live 5000 years you will live 10,000." At the time I said something like, "I'll have to see that to believe it." But at the same time a part of me said, "Could this actually be possible?" The Master smiled.

And now I'm 60 years old, not 20 something when the master said it to me and I say to you, "If you live 100 years, you will live 500. And if you live 500 years, you will live to 1000. And if you live 1000 years you will live 5000 and if you live 5000 years you will live to 10,000."

There are only 3 real barriers to living 10,000 years. The first barrier is entirely psychological. For example, a person cannot lift their hand in the air unless they first believe they can or at least believe it is possible.

If you believe it is possible that you could live 100 years, then it is also possible given the right sequences of events that you could live 10,000 really good years. You have to believe in the possibility first for there to be any possibility at all.

Second, one must take care of their health, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

And third, the possibility of medical intervention to save and preserve your life on into the future but only in a way that you want to live with long term.

So, if enough of your self designed parameters come into place you might choose to live on indefinitely!

It is commonly said to young people in the United States and probably Europe, "If you live to be 30 then it is a statistical probability that you will live until 90."

It is my belief that the 10,000 year saying is becoming relevant in the same way because of psychological, educational and medical advances in the civilized world.
