Fear of Death


Most living beings fear death for two prime reasons?

1. Fear of the unknown... none wants to tread unknown territory for one does not know what the next manifestation would be?

In the face of law... one may be a law abiding citizen but behind the curtain the same human being may be a menace to the society (a wolf in sheep's clothing). One may put up a brave face in the present society and escape the gallows... but what of the judgment day of God Almighty when things would be weighed by the karma performed and not false pretensions.

2. Every human being when young has desires and dreams to fulfill. He spends his life fulfilling them and at the end of life feels contented having reached the goal of his present life. And when comes the time for leaving the mortal frame, one recollects memories of total life lived. And to ones horror it is found that we altogether pursued the wrong goal! Why?

For the simple reason that the body belonged to our soul atman within. We never cared for the dictates of our soul atman within. And bolstered by our ego we became a slave of wanton desires and materialistic riches knowing all the while that nothing would get carried to the next life. And now the dilemma of leaving everything behind pains us.

What after Death

After death of body occurs... the soul atman within the body leaves forever. And with the soul atman leaves the residual balance of karma. The death of the body is part of the reincarnation process (also termed rebirth). The dictionary meaning of Reincarnation has been given as rebirth of the soul in another body. Is that true? Yes... it is an absolute truth that the soul reincarnates from one manifestation to another.

Death predetermined
Once we are born unto this Earth... nothing remains predetermined! Let me explain - Whether I shall be born in the house of a king or a laborer is determined from the residual balance of karma of all the previous manifestations by our soul atman within. No need to mention that it is our soul atman within that is on its cosmic journey. To shed the impurities within (to remove the dross within) our soul atman manifests body after another.

Life Death Heaven
Death is not something to be scared of. Who shall die... the body or the inner soul atman present within our heart? Why fear something that does not belong to us. Death is for the body. Our soul atman present within our heart is the owner of the body. Who is it that we fear? We have nothing to lose... we are simply a pawn in the hands of God Almighty!

Death in family
If death occurs in the family... does not mean all is lost! Who does not feel the pain? I will tell you the story of my life... I realized God in 1993. My mother was still alive. Having reached the stage of Nirvikalpa Samadhi... the whole cosmic wisdom was at my tips. Daily when I returned from office... I used to find my ailing mother sitting by the side of the main door watching everyone coming in or out. This was her normal routine. My mother was very weak from the beginning. In contrast, she was an extremely pious lady.
