No, We Are Not Born Alone...Nor Do We Die Alone...

When raindrops fall from the sky, though they may fall independently, they are all a part of the same molecular structure. When they are grouped together, they unite without hesitation and simply form a bigger drop of water (unless there are opposing molecular structures trying to mix in). The larger the drop of water, the more power they have to survive.

Humans are the same way. We appear to come into this world alone and die alone, but that perception is only an illusion. Since, as humans, we are made up of the same molecular structure, we are just as connected to each other as water droplets are connected to a pond, lake, or ocean, and our connection determines our survival.

All of the elements of the earth work together in some natural way. There is no purpose for dirt without plants, plants without water, water without sun...  Therefore, there is also no purpose for humans to stand alone. Procreation is not a singular act. It is no different than two droplets of water uniting to form a larger droplet.

Therefore, it is the individual human mind that creates its own story of aloneness, out of the need, desire, or a teaching that the individual is unique in some unnatural way. 

Picture an individual droplet of water, shunning the other droplets of water, believing it is different...and unique.
How different would that water droplet have to be, in order to make its uniqueness a reality? What role would that difference play in it's existence as a singular droplet of water? 

As humans, we may have unique fingerprints; however, since they can be removed, their role is small in the scheme of life. Our survival skills make us different, but those traits cannot qualify as unique or separate. Since the law of nature teaches us that opposites attract, stronger humans help weaker humans survive.

From an expanded perspective, humans are all the same, and therefore connected in both the physical world and the spiritual world. So what would make us separate in the spiritual world if it were not purely individual perception? Do the stories we create in our minds, for whatever reason, solely determine whether we live a life feeling connected or feeling alone?

If we visualize our hearts uniting as humans, in the same way droplets of water unite, there is no deliberate  purpose for anyone to be spiritually alone.

The concept of being born alone and dying alone is just another illusion of the human ego.
