"When it becomes dry, the resurrection fern seems to die!
But not to fret, it comes back when it gets wet." ~Floridata.com
[D]eath brings an end to the life I have known. And at the same time it is the promise of something new. It is a call to Courage – to grasp the new and begin inventing another life. I’m thinking this is equivalent to a resurrection, one that happens Now! ~David Zahrt
At the center of death is resurrection, in this life, manifest over and over. Scripture proclaims this, for example, in these words from Mark and I Corinthians:
“His death and resurrection are ours. Before, we were No-People, enslaved. . . ; now, we are a People, free to the possibilities of life. We are a People who have come through the sea of Death, and have risen to life – genuine, authentic life – to find that we have made a Covenant with the One who brought us here. . . . As this New-People, we celebrate this New Exodus.”
Life is resurrectional. Namaste.

We come to understand resurrection from our observations and experiences of nature. This is why we give eggs at Easter and display Easter Lillies. Our religioius symbols/stories present a human/cosmic dimension present in and beyond these experiences. Let us simply call this dimension the "GREAT YES" . . . to-all-that-is.
