Death Is Nothing Compared To Non-Existence
    #8023904 - 02/14/08 06:52 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

This is a title from an Erowid trip report. Does it make sense to anyone here?

He is obviously comparing his deeper fears with his personal beliefs about dying. Not sure what's so scary about non-existence though. To be afraid of the idea makes no sense to me.

It sounds mixed up, like it should be
"Non-existence is Nothing, compared to Death...."

:ohwell:

What I get from it is that death is preferable to not existing (i.e., not making your mark on the world) in the first place...or something like that.

But then what the fuck do I know?

Yes, one has a hollow center.....!

"Death" and "Nothing" + (an implied) "Life" and "Something" = a zero sum, but it all still existed....

Yeah, must be a abstraction of poetry of sorts....    :ohwell:
It only makes sense when I squint my brain really hard, then it gets blurry again....

Non-existence is the base fear, where the fear of death stems from. There are many forms of death. They all lead to non-existence one way or another.
