Guys after suffering days due to my child condition, MDD and anxiety hit me, I couldn't sit in the chair. I had very bad feelings for days. I had lived terrible days, hours, minutes and seconds. And last hit, which is the pacemaker surgery of mine came to the surface and I had a surgery. I had no choice left but surrendering. It was the point that I lost my all hope, literally all hope. 

 

Now I surrender, I have no expectations, pleasure, pain, questions ( which is created me). Now, I am just free, because I am death. I don't give a fuck whatever happens to me anymore. That's all. 

 

I accepted fundamentally, deeply that nothing is under my control and therefore surrender. Fucking everything is in my head. I felt like I just shot my head like movie fight club. Now I am done. Whatever happens let it happens.

It’s weird when you lose that I-Thought and you see that everything still happens without a you in the driver’s seat.  That always surprises me even now.

Sounds like a lot, I'm sorry. Hope your baby is ok. How's older sister and mom doing? 

Thank you. Baby is doing little better ( I hope, he will recover asap). They are normal, everyone is sad in the family for the whole situation.

Yes, we get it, the thought of dying, is terrifying to the human being, the one who knows the implications of death. And yet has never actually known death in actual fact. 

What do you mean" has never known death in actual fact "? Do you mean you should experience death to know that it's terribly terrifying?  Animals don't have the same frontal cortex in the brain unlike human beings and yet they recognise what death is and that its something to feared . Why does a gazelle run away from a tiger ?

Fear is fear, no one is doubting that, and yes, if you accidently fall off a tall cliff,  yes,  fear may well flood your nervous system. But at the same time, what if there is also a sensation of bliss, a complete calm, and peaceful surrendering flooding through you as well?

Not possible.  Try just standing on the edge of tall building and see how you feel (let alone actually falling off ).

You simply can't know until the actual time comes, when the experience is actual and direct.

 

Same point above .

I've heard that soldiers lying on the battle field, dying from their horrific injuries, have also felt a sublime sense of calm and peace, and harmony, during the dying. But that's obviously an experiential event that only the dying person can truly know, it's not something everyone can know until it actually happens to them.

No . You know right now that death is bad . That's why you look around before crossing a highway.  That's why you don't eat glass 

That's why when you suspect something is out of sorts with your body you see a doctor .etc

@Someone here I mean death is an idea, a terrifying idea for the sense of self, it is an irrational fear of losing someone.

 

The fear is real enough, as  every sentient living organism with a nervous system will testify, except those who cannot talk. 

 

Death is never someone’s actual experience, death is an idea, in the human mind, and what is an idea? I’ve no idea. 😆

 

 

So Death is an idea ? I'm kinda seeing where you are coming from ..that as long as one personally has not experienced death then it holds zero actuality by definition and therefore you can't draw a truthful conclusion based on something you've never experienced (yet).  But my point is that even though that that's true ..you still fear death (and you've acknowledged that )..so why that is ?(why everyone fear it even though they didn't experience it first hand )? Do you have an answer to this question?

@Someone here Fear is a sensation. A bad sensation that every person and animal alike will usually repel as opposed to being drawn to it. It’s all perfect in it’s design I guess. 

 

The sensation of fear is present in almost every creature with a nervous system. And I guess that’s just how evolution programmed it that way, so it could evolve and not devolve. 


The fear would also act as a deterrent to warn of future dangers, thus further assisting evolution to evolve rather than devolve.

 

 

Yes but what are we afraid from exactly?  An idea ? 

You give fear more reality than the thing we are afraid from.

Yes, there is fear of an idea

Give an example . Like I'm afraid of what comes after death . Death itself doesn't "do it " for me more than the unknown that is after death. Because death is certain. So there is no point stressing over something inevitable. Whereas the phase(if any at all ) that follows death is what is truly terrifying because its 100% unknown.

There can also  be a fear of life, not just death, the fear of being alive for some people can be worse than the idea that is death, and is probably why death feels like a better place to be for the one who fears life. 

But these ideas only exit to the one who has the sense of being a separate self, the one who is able to tell itself it is born, and can die.

Pardon me please..are you speaking indirectly about yourself here ?

Those who don’t mind being alive, don’t want to die, because they don’t like to contemplate the unknown.

Then there’s those who would prefer the unknown death, to the known life.

Like who ? Only someone who is terminally ill or disabled..have cancer etc

@Someone here

In accordance with direct experience, there is no experience of death and no frame of reference, nothing the thoughts about death point to. But there is an experience of the thoughts, and the guidance of the emotion fear. So seeing the truth is a matter of stripping direct experience of conceptualizations. Make sense?

This is the highest level of truth, but the question is who is to embody this truth?

@Phil because again this whole naive reductionistic approach of boiling every goddam thing into a thought .

I’m all there is. That’s reality. Referring to this fact as reductionist is mind games, manipulation, deception, reactionary, immature, unrealized integrity and frankly, brainwashing.

 

With love, you be you, by all means do your thing, but at the same time, simply - no thank you.  

 

Check direct experience, or continue parroting conceptualizations. 

Makes no difference to me. ☺️

 

When I read of “death”, I’m filled yet again with the truth & joy of my being.
