Why Death Is Remorseful!!!
Just
past few days ago we dedicated 15 entire days to our ancestors,
forefathers and the dead related to us in the form of ‘Shrad’. We aimed
to pacify their souls and get their blessings and moreover feared the
curse that may lay upon us through our fore figure souls. The culture,
the rituals and our beliefs all make us to do so. One day I was seeing a
wagon carrying a dead body draped in white and decorated with garland
and flowers. The dead had no place except the floor though it was all in
new and clean while the rest were not. It was a moment of sad departure
of a life which is an extreme contradiction to our usual happy bid
adieus and departures with our loved one. We wish them goodbyes,
blessings, happiness, gifts and kisses.
Every
living creature react in the same way for the death of their loved
ones. The animals, birds, mammals and every evolved species who can
express and react mourn and grieve over death. At every spot of death
departure there is silence of grief, fires and cremations with tears,
remorse and agony with cries, gathering and bid-adieu. The death and
soul are always a part of question in mind and fear in heart.
Nobody
wants to die and we all fear death. Poisonous animals like snakes,
lizards, scorpion, fish, frogs, spiders have armors as venom to protect
from their predators and causing their death. Camouflage in some
animals like chameleon, birds, insects, moths, fish etc are the
preventive measure provided by nature to save them from every reason
causing their death. Even the nature
prevents them from being killed as
if it remorse their death on this earth and gives everyone a chance to
live and survive.
Live and Survive!!!!!
The two words gasps my breath hard and fervent. Though we all fear
death still in human dictionary we get the guts to call ‘Suicide’
a cowards attempt. The Irony to still await and stand, the attempt to
reach death and surpassing its fear is not appreciable at all. Every
religion, law and thoughts have denied the attempt towards death. The
answers lies in the two former words i used that gasped my breath ” To
live and survive”.
One
of the 3 things that changed the Life of Siddharth and made him to
become a monk was ‘Death’. Young son of a king saw the instance of
poverty, illness and death when he stepped out of his palatial and
luxurious palaces and made him realize the truth of life and leaded his
journey towards finding answers to these questions raised in his soul as
a saint.
We
all reach thousands of questions and beliefs in the name of death in
our life and we gain and share numerous experiences till we ourselves
face the ultimate fearful truth. Inspite of being the ultimate truth of
life, knowing that we all are born to die one day. We do and we will
remorse and fear death in our lives.
