Thing is everything is in motion and we humans place labels on things to help us grasp them.
The labels we place on things gives them a sense of concreteness to us. Like they are a thing,
when actually all things in existence are constantly changing and being transformed.
We take the thing we call “death” so personally when all things come into being, rise, and then fall.
Whatever has a beginning has and end. We see weather patterns come and go, seasons come and go,
plants, insects, and animals, come into being, live, and then die. Why should it be any different with
human beings?
Billions of human beings have died before me and billions will die after I have died. It is not personal.
Although it is highly subjective, and we question it because it happens to us. But the transition
that we call “death” is more fantastic than anything which we can think of or conceive in our minds.
It is a here and now experience, just like every other experience we have had, only much more dynamic.
We all die and the only query is when and how. We need to be prepared mentally, emotionally, and spiritually,
just about every moment of our human life.
Defining it is pointless in my opinion. Me getting to know my deeper being, which includes getting to know my
own consciousness, has helped me come to terms with the mortal nature of my human body.
