THE BEGINNING OF DEATH

Born as a human, a rare chance to attain self realization or in other words to realize the purpose of life. We shall focus our attention on positive action during every moment of our short life on this globe. Let us not forget that it is a duty for each one of us to leave an indelible mark through our achievements in life and specially in the field of spiritual development.

To do justice to the title of the article, it is necessary to emphasise that we should not at all worry about death which will take its own course. The beginning of death is when life starts (from our birth) and what we call as the periods of growth and decay are only mere nomenclatures. The clock starts ticking right from the moment of birth.

We are born with full knowledge (the saying is “Child is the father of Man”) gifted by God as a reward for the achievements of our previous birth. It becomes invisible and unknown as the child is asked to acquire knowledge through books.

The famous Japanese lady Saint OGAMISAMA says that real knowledge can be gained in life as

KNOWLEDGE WITHOUT BOOKS

Make some one in the modern world understand and accept the power and hidden meaning of this statement.

She says we should polish the mind and soul by constantly uttering the Japanese prayer “NAMYO HORENGEKO”. This prayer means “Polish thy mind, polish thy soul”. With that true understanding of the all powerful self can be achieved.

By leading a satvic life one can surely overcome desire, hatred, anger, greed, jealousy etc., Such a life will enable us to develop our spiritual personality and thus get closer to our inner self.

Instead we fall a victim to the negative qualities and feel frustrated ( a vacuum sets in) and unhappy most of the time. This makes us worry continuously about death.
