One of the most amazing things in the world is that people leave the world before our eyes every day and no one is ever made conscious of his own approaching death. Everyone thinks he is going to live forever, until the inevitable happens.
All his actions, all his ambitions, his accumulations of wealth and
properties, end in the nothingness that is the inevitable end of human
existence upon earth, known as Death.
And then there is the Voice of Death:
"“O Man, you had forgotten my existence, for verily you hated the very thought of me. But I am not entirely without significance. It is true that I present a face that is altogether fierce and frightening.
"But to understand me is to know my secret, which reveals only a face of joy; which awakens everyone from a sleep of confusion; which dispels the fears of this world; which wipes away these tears of sorrow, that had been flowing down to this day, and which effaces all memories of the unfaithfulness and ingratitude of this world, giving you a final release from it all.
"The sinking of the sun of your life is not an end, but rather is a beginning, which brings you to that resting place where the turmoils of the world cease to exist. The flower of your existence has not withered away, it has been taken to a place more secure, where the beaks of birds cannot harm it, nor the gardener place it under an obligation.”
"Death is an awakening from the dreams of life, which tells you that everything that was seen or heard was like a dream that came and went away."
"The Very Same God who had created Life, had also created Death. Life is an Order of God that brings you into this world, and Death too His order which takes you away from this world.. We have to obey both with equanimity.
We can make Death beautiful if we understand that:
"Death is a staircase leading to the house of the Beloved Lord. It is the final destination of the journey of Life."
