Death

Death is painful but an inevitable dramatic requirement of Cosmic play.
Death is an alluring secret and an awful mystery sealed in the bososm of life, which is like a peerless pyramid worth hugging and worth kissing; there are stifling echoes and intimations of ‘death’.
Death …is not that dreadful as it appears to be. (Journey into Joy p8)
Why does death exists?- to enhance the beauty of life.
The death that apparently appears to be so dreadful, in fact, equally delightful if understood in the cosmic light. (Journey into Joy p9)
Death is a cosmically induced attempt to recapture childhood.
….like the one happily preparing for sleep one must prepare for death.
…death is the extinguishing flame of life, if death takes away happiness, it also takes away sorrow; if it extinguishes flame of joy it also lights the flame of hope. Death reveals us that there is life beyond it, just like there was life before it. (Journey into Joy p12)
‘ “ It is impossible that anything so natural so necessary and so universal as death should ever have been designed by providence as an evil to mankind"
