It is natural to feel
the fear of the unknown when it comes to the immediate future. With regard to
death, this fear may centre around what might happen in the process of dying
such as the pain of a terminal illness, nausea, vomiting, or even fearing
abandonment by those around you.
The fear of death may
also be perpetuated by the sadness of the family around the dying person or the
hopelessness of the doctor or the nurses who feel that they may have failed to
keep the person alive. However, it is through death that the dying person can
be released from the great burden of his diseased body.
So don’t be afraid,
It’s the Highest
Realm
Death is not an
enemy; it is a natural fact of life, a stage of our existence, and a transition
or doorway between planes of reality. Death has its own harmony with nature. A
tree loses its leaves every fall, and we never feel that it is unjust or that
the tree failed to stay fully alive when it goes dormant through the winter. It
is a natural process.
Also, the process of dying can be rough, but it is temporary.
The best thing to do
is to focus our consciousness as much as we can in a way that will help us
reach the highest realm possible after death. Of course, it may always be a
little sad to leave our home and loved ones, but if we are going to a bigger
and more beautiful home, then what is there to be sorry about? It is joyful to
be going to a better place. This sort of joy will also help divert our
attention from any pain we might be experiencing.
Move On
The primary fear of
death is, of course, in not knowing what we will be or where we will go in the
afterlife. If you are afraid of where you might go after death, surrender and
know that fate, or God, will put you where you will best learn whatever you
need to learn.
universe is based on compassion. It is not punishment that we are here, but it is because of our desires for the experience of material existence and bodily sense pleasures. Each life helps us learn more about ourselves, and about who we are. Death is not simply a matter of getting old or sick and then dying. Natural death happens when you have finished doing what you were meant to do in this life.
