"Death", the word seems to sound like a natural murderous gas, making all living things fear it for three points, even retreat!
Why are people afraid of death? Although we are all afraid of death, I am afraid that few people can really say clearly about why people are afraid of death. Maybe it's because death represents the eternal disappearance of a life... Perhaps because death represents a genuine despair deep within. No! It should be the despair of the soul! Therefore, we are afraid that our souls will have no home, and we will become homeless ghosts... Perhaps, because death represents a fear...
The reason why people are afraid of death, afraid of death, reluctant to leave this world, not so much because there are relatives in this world that they are reluctant to leave and leave behind, but because of the fear of death - the reason why people are afraid of death is not because of fear of death, but fear of not knowing what is behind death, is the death of eternal life? Or is it a more difficult ordeal? The calamity that we can see, or that we can know, no matter how difficult and how bitter, we are not afraid, because we will find a way to overcome it. What we fear is the unknown consequences – what awaits us after death? That's what we're most afraid of! This is also why we are afraid of death, the real voice hidden in the subconscious of our hearts, and the reason why we covet this that makes us unhappy, even if we are suffering, we are not willing to let go of the world. Of course, some people cannot accept this kind of statement and explanation, especially for those who live in the upper echelons of society and have superior material conditions, they are even more unwilling to believe and accept such an explanation of the existence of life.
In fact, death is not terrible. Not only is it not terrible, but for the vast majority of us, especially for the poor living at the bottom of society, it should be a relief, an emotional and physical and spiritual relief from the suffering that this rolling red dust brings us, not the fear and pain we fear - death, so that we no longer have to worry about the days when we open our eyes and owe others a lot of money; Let us stop blaming ourselves for the promises we can't afford or the responsibilities we consciously take on (to let our loved ones live happily ever after us); death can save us from the multitude of suffering in this world.
Although "death" is indeed a spiritual escape and liberation from the helplessness of reality in a certain sense, how precious is life interpreted from another level? Not everyone is likely to come to this red dust as a kind of "human" on this planet to experience the love and hatred of a person, and not everyone has the privilege of experiencing the cycle of reincarnation of life- it is precisely because we have love in our hearts, it is we who love our loved ones, so that our "death" that was originally a relief has become a kind of painful torment and torture, because we are reluctant to love those we love and those who love us!
Death is a kind of liberation - because of the existence of love, we are reluctant to let go of this responsibility and responsibility in our bodies, let us live painfully and painfully...
