  • Fear of death is a remarkable evolutionary advantage. Without it, our species wouldn't have fought so hard to survive such challenging times. That fear is an incredible drive for us to keep on living. And that's what this UA-cam film is all about.
    The dead don't mourn. It's us the living that must cope and find a way to move forward. The more we understand loss, the easier it is to survive it. I hope this film brings some understanding and comfort as we confront our impermanent nature. May we all learn to see the beautiful healing nature of loss and grief, and may that teach us how to live more fully during our brief and precious time on this planet.

      Because you still don't understand what death is.
      Death is just as much a part of life that living is....and an inescapable journey that we all must go through.
      Nothing to fear, but fear itself.
      Your sadness is a selfish act? Consider changing your views on death, that will set you free from your pain.

    Death doesn't exist, only Life exists. The paradox is that while we move eternally with upwelling Life, at the same time our mortal sheath - the body - moves in the opposite direction, i.e. towards its dissolution. We lay it down but it's only the sheath which ends, not us: we continue forever.

      This is it. Even Jesus knew and tried to explain to his followers "No one can take my life from me. I sacrifice it voluntarily. For I have the authority to lay it down when I want to and also to take it up again. For this is what my Father has commanded"

Although her love for life and everyone were her calling, she was at peace when she departed. I miss her immensely and her teachings of love, family and caring for others. I've continued her memory and teachings thru caring for others and helping those in need. Thank you for all your love, teachings, giving and caring ways Mom. You are always with me! Namaste.

    I witnessed the parallels between birth and death when I had the privelege of nursing my Mother at the time of her passage from this state of existence to the next. Those weeks have been transformational for me in a full realisation of how thin the veil is between one state of being and the next. I will be forever grateful. I watched the fear and anxiety lift from my Mother as she accepted the inevitable and passed through into a state of graceful and peaceful acceptance. Everything stated on this video resonates with me so beatifully. Thank you for sharing your wisdom 🙏

    I read in the comments how many miss their parents after they passed. I can’t imagine that void existing in my personal experience. My parents are disgraceful examples of how to manipulate, use, judge, burden & control us kids. At 50yrs old I’ve had enough. They’re both 70 now, homeless, and still narcissistic. I won’t shed a tear when they depart. I rejoice in knowing they’re going to see their own reflection and truth of the pain, stress, hurt, heartache they have caused for their own selfish gains. I’m content in knowing they’re going to choke on their own shame feeling everything they put each of us through. What saddens me is they continue the same toxicity stress and control with their grandchildren. It disgusts and embarrasses me they haven’t grown with wisdom to change. 70 yrs old and living life reacting to life’s obstacles. They’ve never spent a period creating harmony and balance. Too lazy, stubborn thinking they know everything when they clearly have learned nothing worthwhile to be proud of. I have separated myself from my parents and when they die I won’t even attend their funeral. I have no regrets now and never will. When parents choose to remain in an unhealthy life energy it’s better to leave them learn. Parents are supposed to be the teachers handing down wisdom, not their children. There is nothing I want or ever needed from them. They have nothing anyway. Their life journey is coming to an end and when it does they’re going to realise their ‘patterns’ became cellular to create the misery they endure. If you’re a parent who’s falling short of the mark of leading by example, get help, face your reflection and your truth. Getting your shit together and keeping it together is the best thing you can do for ‘your memory’ when you’re gone. Most importantly be an example you can be proud of. Your shame is yours to wear. If you cannot face your own reflection while you’re alive and make amends, you won’t escape it when you’re beyond the veil. We all review our lives, actions and how we impacted others,everything they felt we will feel. Why reduce yourself to a sniveling mess of regret when it’s too late to say sorry and make amends. If you do wrong apologise and mean it and make necessary amends to rectify the energy, if you don’t it records as karmic history in your life review. That shows you you didn’t learn. If it’s genuine apology meant from your heart (the soul knows) it cancels out the wrong. Brave souls face the music they play in their lives so that harmony exist when their time comes. Be brave, loving kind but honest with those you’re supposed to love. Treat them how you want to be treated. A pure soul is not afraid of the music. It’s like a potters hand moulding clay. We are all connected. Life doesn’t end past death. Only our bodies. We return to consciousness, the all. Home.

    Die before you die is a moment where one goes through a surrender of ego . It is there that one experiences, the ones of creation. Coming to know that there is no death. Die before you die means you experience the drop of ego. Once this happens, you feel the state of God consciousness. You feel one with creation. It is there that you realize there is no death of the soul. Only death of the body. You realize at that very that very moment that separation is an illusion. That we are one with all of creation.. in this state of divine consciousness you feel more alive, and at home than you have ever felt. There is an ornate sense of understanding and knowing in that moment. Everything changes from there in your perception of your own existence and of all live it self. Also his comment about grief. Grief is love. One never stops grieving. It changes but it’s always will be there. There’s nothing wrong with grief. There’s nothing to feel guilty about if one is still grieving. One still loves this person who has crossed over there for one will continue to grieve. That is OK. Grief doesn’t have to stop you. It’s an emotion that we experience here because of the contrast that we live in here. Grief is the expression of love.. it’s an expression of one soul, loving another soul.

    Thank you very much for this video. If people dealt more with the topic of death, our societies would concentrate more on the essential aspects of our existence and would not get lost in all the superficial distractions and all the horrors we have to witness every day.
    Not only the video touches my heart, but also all the comments full of loss and sadness. May you all be happy!

    Everything is impermanent but our attachment to things people and places causes pain when we lose that person place or thing.

    I have absolutely no fear of death whatsoever.
    I've lost for loved ones this year alone. I have more love ones that are out of their bodies that are still in them. I made peace with death along time ago and although I might miss the physicality of a person or an animal I don't grieve like I did when I was younger.
    I am grateful for each day but I actually welcome death. I would never do heroic measures to stay alive.

    Letting go at the core of Buddhism requires wisdom, having direct insights into what is suffering - the make-up of this body and mind, and its causes. This direct insight gained through meditative wisdom is beyond mere intellectual or conceptual understanding, or sipping on those chicken-soup soothing words that often don't work much when crisis dawns because our psyche hasn't gone through a complete, irrevocable transformation fleshed out in what we call moments of awakening. Without such extraordinary experience to complete let go, accept, abandon, or uproot this deep-rooted ego-grasping that characterizes the foundation of our suffering is at best a metaphysical ideal.

    Yeah I have had that same thought a lot lately .. that the big problem at least here in the states that we face is that everything has gotten so good people are now making up reasons to be pissed off. It's as if righteous indignation is the addiction that we can't shake so people have created fake virtues. Created narratives that give them an opportunity to set themselves apart and feel special. It's all very wild. Humans.

    A great message and much that I've realized after 71 years and yet, interesting to me, is that the monk had on a face mask (muzzle), ineffective against disease transmission and IMO the very symbol of the fear of death. How ironic.

    To find a courage that does not fear death is rare. To be killed is painful, most of us are killed softly, to die is far easier.
    It is the impersonal nature of beauty that offers us a solace as we leave, there is justice and grace in things that live on. An impartial spirit consoles you, it has no favorites.
    All are enthralled by the show on earth, the rain, the sounds, the visuals, the mountains, the rivers, the flowers, the flying and the swimming, all of it has become habit, we are now in the habit of living, the habit of death is not easy, the habit of death however may offer us better courage.
