Fear Of Death!

Auras wrote:I have always been interested in this topic. Think I shall start it off.

So, Fear of death? what is it? what is death? For me, Death is simply just an illusion. We think life is something and it is not. So, what creates this fear? For me, I am not scared about passing over. I am scared of the way I am going pass over, For me the best way to pass over would to be in my sleep, Painless and would just be like your in a dream. Being brought up with the experiences of spiritual being. I am a firm believe of the Spirit world. But, By what I have heard with Near Death Experiences. They nearly all start with the individual being scared of passing over.Then, Suddenly, They are the one that are experiencing and then all that negative energy of being scared just completely vanishes. The reason of that is due to the fact that they are experiencing it themselves.

Adam speaks of his recent NDE as something void of emotion. It simply "was".

I've heard or read this elsewhere and that when most people expect to panic or worry about loved ones it is simply not the case It seems all of that leaves you at lerast in those moments and you feel a sense of freedom and peace and lightness we could not comprehend in the physical.

Death is not an illusion,Auras.   Ii is the death of the physical shell which holds our soul or spirit.    That is the most important part of us.   The part that lives on.
Like we open a tin or packet of food and inside that tin is the goodness that sustains us....that keeps us alive and existing for ever.... 
We are only afraid of death because it is how we die.    Death means the end of the physical body,a cumbersome outer covering like a heavy overcoat which is only there to keep us warm and to exist on a planet of extreme temps.
Once the spirit is released,we are not longer tied to the earth....

I have to diagree with you on that death is not illusion.

Simply because we are not really dead.

That's exactly it, bodily. Now you have to determine how you see yourself, as the body/mind, or spirit who simply uses the body for the duration of a life time to experience life. (in agreement with the planet of cause).
If you come to the conclusion, you are spirit, you might as well come to understand, you have existed before this life, and you will exist after this life.

Now you have to determine how you see yourself

Dead.....thats how I see it. The spiritual stuff comes form others opinions and I do not necessarily believe in that stuff.

 Hi Azrael, that's ok if you don't have any beliefs that way, many of us here do but many of us here have had some kind of evidence of an afterlife, but don't worry we're not about converting people, we just discuss these things.

It's a delicate balance between life and death. We go through life accepting what we like and do not like and move on. Death on the hand is something that we have no choice but to accept at some point in life we are all going to meet it.  I could post some links but apparently I cannot right now.

Violet wrote:That's the one certainty in life that we will all die at some point, could I ask you, do you fear death? I'm wondering if  the fear of death is eased for me because of what I believe in, that there is an afterlife, is it fearful if you don't believe in an afterlife,or less fearful what are your thoughts?
