What is death?
only four words, and many explanations.
I think I've always feared death, and it is strange how people, including myself, afraid of things unknown.
revived this theme in my head the other day, watching the Discovery as a leopard killed an ox. The ox was walking with his flock safely through the savannah, when everything becomes nothing confusing and a stampede of bulls running through him. Before he knew it had leopard and grabbed by the neck and was lying on the floor. His teammates were already away and this buddy knew the race was over.
From time to time was at death's door, at the beginning of the unknown.
And the ox did not know. The leopard was biting his neck and twisted. The eyes looked at the empty prey, a last move and it was over.
whole process took less than 3 minutes.
The ox was dead.
Could it be that simple? Is there a bigger reason, an order and why?
To understand death is to be understood first is life.
life as we know it is a number of electrical connections between our neurons that allow us to stay with logical thinking. Sure, that's in theory. But is there a way to explain the feelings, reasoning, expriencias, the colors ... life? . We
and exist. We looked out the window of the micro like the most ordinary routine. But we know that we are unique. We had the opportunity to exist. What we are witnessing is something unforgettable, is a fragment of the infinite whole that we are lucky to see, smell, feel.
But then, everything has to end. At some point we have to die in a given year, on a given day, at a certain time, in a given minute, in a given second and it's all over for us. We
a simple blink at infinity. Our being, what we are, what defines us, our friends, our parents, our family, all will be gone and will be absolutely nothing. When the people we have met die too, no trace of our existence.
Sure, maybe some writing with your name last few years, but the time that no one will remember how you were, what you felt, who wanted, what you thought.
Yes, we think, but technically we can not imagine a negative existential nothingness.
Death is a good concept of what we are and what we experience, but is not prewritten what has happened. Collecting data
certain phrases, I can not mention a quote from a blog friend Jodorowsky Addictions that says " The last living human being launched the last shovelful of earth on the latter died. At that very moment he knew it was immortal, for death exists only in the eyes of others "
Here we have a clear look at earthly death as we know it. Jodorowsky makes connection to the eye. Of course, if there is no man who witnesses the death, not the concept will not be the idea, this is only the absence. Would have ended up as the fall of a branch in the middle of the jungle, no one will listen, completely irrelevant to the whole. Death only exists in the eyes of others. Death is the look. Death keeps it more entrenched bases for social development that we know where everything is based on prior success.
Death as a mystery is the one that achieves growth and development of a society without the concept of death, without the mystery of its reality, nothing would be summarized to earth. We are what we are because of what we can not explain, and argue that it is our actions.
All express their thinking in different ways, and rescued Tolkien's writing one of his books: " No, the journey does not end here, death is just another path to go over all the gray veil of this world stands up and everything becomes crystal silver, that is when see the white edge and beyond the vast green countryside, lying to a fleeting dawn. "
death, seen from my perspective, absolutely nothing, and therefore, it is understandable that fear and that is what we can never imagine. We fear what we understand and imagine, maybe some things do not want, but the fear of death becomes a much more metaphysical, more abstract and unreal.
Napoleon said "The death is a dreamless sleep, "a rather absolute the possible reality, but also a statement rather than the collective thinking of the time.
course there are" poles "moral to support the weight of death as concept, such as religions or beliefs, the truth is there for religion, apart from responding to events still unexplained, give a romantic theory to circumvent the existentialism latent in every human being thinks.
Finally given any explanation to try justify the death does not become more than words, the absolute mystery will remain an absolute mystery, and some day soon Far know the truth, to reveal the utterly unknown ... surprise!
