DEATH.

dehino ‘smin yatha dehe kaumaram yauvanam jara tatha dehantara-praptir dhiras tatra na muhyati'.

As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth, and then to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change.” (Bhagavad-gita 2.13)

I believe that, Death is the single Largest Life Changing Agent.When you become aware of Impending Death regardless of the cause or grounds that lead to it, comes the realization that One should Avoid Wasting Life.

Living Someone Else’s Choices.

Avoid letting the Clutter and Clamour of Other People’s Opinions, Thoughts, Words from drowning Out Your Own Inner Voice. Have and Keep Up the Courage, even in the Most Last Trying and Emotionally Disturbing Moments to follow Your Heart and Intuition.

Death is not the End.

It is the mere change of one form of energy into Another Form. If one subscribes to theory of Reincarnation it could be accepted that Death is the passing over or Migration of the Soul or Energy in the present form or body into form or Body.So Shed Your Grief, Rejoice in the Passage of the Energy from the present Known Form or Body into that of another Form or Body.Yes Perform your Ritual acts and Ceremonies that you Subscribe to as per your religious calling.However remember Spirituality has hardly any space for Rituals and Ceremonies.Take Joy and Relish the Memories of the Physical Frame that is left behind. Cherish the Good and Happy times spent with the one who has moved on.Remember it is now only a Dead Lifeless Body or Physical Frame that is left behind to be either cremated or buried and thereby ensuring the return of even that physical frame to Nature.Thus Death leaves nothing behind.

Krishna explains in the Bhagawad Gita that “as an embodied soul continually passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death” (2.13).

In each lifetime, each one does what he has to do, and if he does it selflessly, in love of me, without regard for gain or loss, he may come finally to rest in my perfection and be free of the cycles of action and death - Krishna to Arjuna in the Bhagawad Gita.

Even science says; energy cannot be destroyed, it is just transformed; then how can the most energetic creature of the creation be finished to nothing at the time of death? It is simply not logical; we are born again and again and again. Only the form, shape may differ.

However the rebirths are also dependent on our karmas or actions, deeds and thoughts.

Life is Beautiful,
Pain is Beautiful,
Sorrow is Beautiful,
Death is Beautiful.
