It is a very strange feeling when you realize....

The true concept of death. Ive never thought about it so much before last night. I though of true death and never comming back. No reincarnation, no heaven, no hell, just death. This is the first time I have truly realized that one day I will die one day.

Terrible? I wouldn't say terrible. But I guess peoples opinions on what death is like varies from person to person.
Death is liberating to me. I see death merely as a trascendal change, only the death of the ego & the worn out body. I had a few run ins with death, and all were pretty or really peaceful. But I'll be ready for death when death is ready for me. I'm not going until it's my time... I'm still young.

i don't think you can just "die" your ego wouldn't accept it which is why you'd rebirth eventually.
I mean we "die" every night in deep sleep.... a dead brain and a brain in delta waves don't have that many dissimiliarties, yet somehow we manage to piece ourselves back together in the dream state until we finally wake up and realize what just happened.
I think of death like a giant sleep, then in coming to terms with your inherent nothingness you start gradually forming a new ego in a dream-like way until you attach to it and are bound to a new life.

I struggle with that almost everyday
my rational side say there is nothing...blank...you die DONE...life moves on for others , you are worm food....
this tells me to LIVE FOR TODAY indudge WTF matters when you're gone.
My spiritual side says there is something more...intangable, its out there...more than this flesh we are just inbetween 'lives'
I have no proof, ,is ths spiritual an escape mechanism so i dont go crazy thinking about the no eventful end? I hope not.
every night we close our eyes..not remembering our sleep...imagine never waking up...life goes on..it saddens me deeply

Well actually I meant it is terrible to "know". It is not that you are going to die because every living thing dies, it is terrible to "know" you are going to die.

nice way of thinking of it, but i strongly disagree. i also believe that when you die, youre dead. youre gone. i do have a theory that our memories and thoughts are energy, and so can travel and stay together even after we die (or also possibly allowing people to travel out of their bodies so to say, or to comunicate with just the minds, etc.), but still most of the time the nergy disperses and goes to do something else. (energy can not be created or distroyed, jsut converted). so technically our thought energy can be relased with body heat or what ever, but not as thought, just as heat.
so in the end, there are small possibilities if you have similar theories, but in the end for msot people i believe we will jsut disapear we can do nothing but accept it and live our life to the fullest.

If when you're dead you stay dead, then there's nothing I could worry about. I won't notice the shift and I won't exist to care or feel like I'm missing out. If it's only pure death after this life then I might as well be dead now, actually, because these days aren't going to gain me anything in the long run.
However, there's no doubt in my mind that there's life after death, and I don't especially believe in repeated reincarnation. I believe a perfect being, who's more human than human, along with all the rest of perfected existence will greet me.
I think as long as we are in these bodies we are subject to their control, which means we are about as conscious as our physical brains can let us be. So if our bodies are made unconscious, while we are attached to them, we will feel those effects. Once the strand of "life" has been cut and our bodies are no longer associated with us I believe we will experienced our true selves.
I'll let you know if I was right when I die.

The fact that we still don't even understand what life is comforts me in that we most certainly don't understand death correctly either. And if death really is the total end of my existence, then I won't be able to complain about it so what do I care. No use in getting all worked up about it.

this is my take on death. I am not looking forward to die first of all, noone can tell me what its really like to die. yeah yeah I know about near death experiences and white light but I have allready seen this on DMT and DPT, I dont think that is death. On the other hand I dont want to live too long either I have kids, hopefully I will get grandkids. My genes goes on, my knowledge goes on. I am a cultivator, I grow things. I can see how genetic works- I do not belive in anything special after death. But my genes goes on living, and that is comforting. The only sad thing about my death is that my ego djes for good and can not come back. my genes and my spirit will live on trough my children and that is eternal life for me.

energy is never created nor destroyed, it just is .. on that note, you can probably expect that the energy that you are composed of this moment will not just sit in a rotting corpse for eternity ... it will transfer forth to new things just as at your birth, the energy transferred to you
it's a loop, there's no start and no finish line ...

The whole GLORY of it all, is that we don't know..and will never know.
And I'm content with that.

Death is nothing, chances are you will never feel it at all. It IS just the death of the body. Not something to get too worked up about. Thinking too much about dying is unhealthy. Everyone will die one day. Thoughts of death do not have to rule you life. Quite frankly I don't like to think of death at all and I don't even like making this post, because I am thinking about death myself now, due to reading this thread. See you guys later I don't want to think about this. much love.

very cool I'm realizing that there's actually alot of people who don't go through this thought process of realizing that one day they're going to die. Death is a hard thing to come face to face with, and lots of people try to avoid this by believing some supernatural religious dogma, or whatever else they can come up with that makes them avoid looking straight in the eyes of death.
I admire your courage!
