Death is nothing but Soul separation
Statue of Death
Soul leaving the dead body
"Jo Oupajiou So Binas Hai Paro Aj Kai Kal "
Whatever has been created shall be destroyed; everyone shall perish, today or tomorrow.
Guru Tegh Bahadur
"kaho Naanak thir kachh nahee supnay jiyu.n-o sansaar.
Says Nanak, nothing lasts forever; the world is like a dream.
chintaa taa kee keejee-ay jo anhonee hoeay.
People become anxious, when something unexpected happens.
Eh maarag sansaar ko naanak thir nahee koeay."
This is the way of the world, O Nanak; nothing is stable or permanent.
-Guru Teg Bahadur
-Guru Granth Sahib Page 1429
"Scientifically speaking single-celled life form
(Organism)is not a 'Matter',as it can be created as well as
destroyed.So total cessation of life is inevitable universal process
that eventually occurs in all organisms.Death is the permanent, irreversible cessation of all biological functions that sustain an organism.In
medical terms Death is an irreversible coma but I call it separation of
Soul and is the only truth of life but only few people know how to
live"

Socrates -On Death
Story One
When
Socrates was dying he was so enchanted that his disciples could not
understand what he was feeling so happy about. One disciple, Credo,
asked "Why are you looking so happy? We are crying and weeping."
Socrates said, "Why should I not be happy? I have known what life is,
now I would like to know what death is. I am at the door of a great
mystery, and I am thrilled! I am going on a great journey into the
unknown. I am simply full of wonder! I cannot wait!"
Story Two
One
disciple asked Socrates "Are you so certain that the soul will survive
after death?" Socrates said, "I don't know." Then the disciple asked,
"Then why are you feeling so happy if the soul does not survive, then
...?" Socrates said, "I have to see. If I survive, there can be no fear
about it. If I don't survive, how can there be fear? If I don't survive,
I don't survive. Then where is the fear? There is nobody there, so fear
cannot exist. If I survive, I survive. There is no point in getting
afraid about it. But I don't know exactly what is going to happen.
That's why I am so full of wonder and ready to go into it. So, I don't
know."
"Jis marne se jag dare, mere man mein anand Kab maru kab paon, puran parmanad"
The whole world fears death, but death will be full of bliss for me
I am waiting for death which will merge me, into absolute bliss
Saint Kabir
Buddha hoya sheikh Farid, Kamban laggi dayh
Je sao vahrya.n jeevna, taa,n Bhee tan hosi kheh
.
(Your body quivers, O wise Farid, now you’re hoary and old
To dust you are surely bound even if you live years untold)
Sheikh Farid
Death, be not proud, though some have called thee Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;
For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow
Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.
From rest and sleep, which but thy pictures be,
Much pleasure; then from thee much more must flow,
And soonest our best men with thee do go,
Rest of their bones, and soul's delivery.
Thou art slave to fate, chance, kings, and desperate men,
And dost with poison, war, and sickness dwell,
And poppy or charms can make us sleep as well
And better than thy stroke; why swell'st thou then?
One short sleep past, we wake eternally
And death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die.
John Donne
