The flip is also that we experience fear, pain, anguish etc. Attachment to life brings in both polarities, can't have one without the other.
-
So you see, fear of death is our biggest bug, and our biggest feature. We cannot escape it, but we can learn from it.
-
Do you think it's possible for a human to overcome this fear of death? At least on a conscious level?
-
It will only be overcome if and when humans succeed in immortality. But the question is not one of overcoming. It's one of understanding.
-
Being conscious of death is a given. Becoming conscious of your built in fear of death, of which all fears are merely an echo of, is not.
-
Therefore the more you inquire into the nature of the fear of death, you are also inquiring into your own nature as a human.
-
Inquire into the fear of death & you also inquire into your attachment to life and realize that love & death are 2 sides of the same coin.
-
You can't have one without the other. You can't have life without death. And then you'll see that fear of death is actually fear of life.
