Is confronting death part of the broader human experience?
Discussion
I think coming to terms with it is.
I'm not sure there is anything to confront. Once we come to the understanding that this is a beautiful experience and we have chosen to be here, then as long as you don't waste your time and make the most of it, death is just part of the experience/process. It's the only way to get back to source, implosive charge collapse of the soul.
I think, at least for me, the 'fear' is leaving behind loved ones, or not being able to share more time with them while they are here.
Even the idea that we could "waste time" seems like surrender to fear of death. Does that makes sense? I feel like I want to surrender to living as slowly as I can. Expand time.
I think I get what you're saying. I guess it depends on how you phrase it, perhaps 'time well spent' is what I should have said. The inherent understanding that our time here is finite, and time being a subjective experience, it would be a shame to squander it since we don't know when death will come.
I don't understand or feel the "inherent understanding that our time is finite" part. What is death if we always live on?
