Question: What is the mystery of life and death!?
One evening Ramu was walking down the street next to his house!. Suddenly he saw a group of people in white clothes, they were carrying a body!. He asked a passer by what's all the fuss about!.

He told him someone had died!. He had seen such a thing for the first time in his life!. A current of fear ran through his whole body !.

The mystery was not leaving him and even followed him in his dreams where he had a meeting with God, obviously the only question he asked Why do you give us life if you have to take it back!?

God said my dear son what happens when you go to a birthday party!. He said that I give a gift to my friend along with good wishes and blessings, we enjoy a lot and at the end he gives a return gift and we accept it with thanks!.

God smiled and replied "Same is the case here my son, life is a gift which I give to you on your birth along with my blessings and death is the return gift which I take back from you so instead of worrying about the return gift enjoy and utilize the gift which i have bestowed upon you and be ready to give me the return gift with a thanks!.

this is a great tale and one I needed right now too!. There is no real mystery, we tend to create this big "mystery" in our search for justifying our existence!. Trouble is we tend to spend a lot of time searching we neglect the gift God gave usWww@QuestionHome@Com

Life and death is interlinked - without one we would not have the next stage!. Life is a gift and should be lived the full each day!. We learn our life lessons and impart those lesson to the younger generation, in the end our job on earth is finished and we need to move on!. If you do not live to the full and learn the life lessons needed - you probably come back and get stuck with the same life as before until you learn what is needed!. Death is also a gift - we finally find peace, no more worries, no more fear - without death there would be no space for new births, new beginnings!. With death we can finally answer the question - who is God and have one heck of a good discusssion - looking forward to it, when my time is up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Sorry to say but i am not completely convinced by this story to understand the mystery of life !. I am not ready to give my life to God as a return gift with a thanks !. Instead i will wait for my turn!. I believe that i am standing in a queue which was arranged by the almighty!. Definitely god has given us a gift ( Our Life ) , to fulfill certain responsibilities !. I am not bothered how i am going to end my life, coz it again will be decided by God !. Life and Death not in our hands !.
