Because we don't know how not to!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Read the 'Apology' of Socrates!.

You do *not* know it sucks!. You just don't!. You're assuming, your animal self is assuming it must be bad - because you work so hard to avoid it!.

I admit I'm cheating because I know there is life after death from having out of body experiences!.

But Socrates knew death was nothing bad!. Read his apology, it might just swing you to be less afraid!. I linked to it below!. I think you'll at least find it interesting and moving!.

I'm ready to die whenever it happens, and I have no worries about it at all!. That feels pretty good!. When I began to be that way, I started to realize that everyone who is afraid really is afraid of death - or actually, of the non-existence they believe will follow death!. No longer to be afraid of that is so fundamental, so rich in possibilities!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Because the human body does not last the test of time, it wears out

Don't look at it as dieing look at it as re-birthing into another journey as the Soul is eternal

I take everyday as it comes

People only fear what they don't understand

To die is a change

Ego verses Soul

It is all about the EGO and change

To not fear something would make a change and a personal growth for the Soul "Right"

The EGO does not like change or personal growth as the Ego likes to win and stay within it's comfort zone

The Ego can be your friend or your worst enemy
Your Soul will never lead you astray

For Ego to make friends with your Soul is to find balance and acceptance many of life's lessons

We don't die!. You need to see just "who" is the person living!. You might identify yourself with the physical form but that is not "you!." Your true self is a centre of awareness in a sea of consciousness!. "We live and move and have our being in Him!."

What ignorant man sees as death, the enlightened man sees as transition from one state to another just as ice can change into water, and water into steam, etc!., so too do the cells that form your body return to their original elements, and above it all is the consciousness which gave LIFE to form!.

I suppose, to state it briefly and to the point is, MAN, KNOW THYSELF!. Perhaps this author's description will clarify the matter:

Your body and your brain are instruments which you use just as your mind is also an instrument that you use!. You recognize that these are instruments, yet they are one -- Spirit, Soul and Body: Spirit, Mind and Brain!. One is the complement of the other!. Spirit the first cause, the three as the Trinity in man!. Life organizes the tissue structures, life organizes the atoms and uses the cells of the organs and complete body for its own self-expression!. We will one day leave the physical body and we will carry with us our experiences gained in the physical plane, the brain and the nervous system we leave behind!. But there is an interpenetrating Substance in which exists the ethereal brain cells, which are invisible to you at present but will go with your ethereal body!.

There are definite planes of consciousness vibrating at different rates of vibration which have been created for our universal experience by the Infinite!. You will react to things external to yourselves just as you are reacting to them now, when you leave the physical body!. These reactions are all registered in your mind!. You take your mind with you, it is part of the Soul structure which lives after the so-called death!. Then you will remember your loved ones and no doubt you will make every effort to help them!. How many of our loved ones now are trying to make us perceive the higher truths!?

--------------

To become aware of your Reality is to become aware of your own Consciousness; to become aware of yourself as the Divine Christ Consciousness having no limitations, as it was in the beginning, remains now and always will be, unlimited, eternal, the doorway to the Infinite and through which the Infinite expresses Himself in you!.

yes, it sucks, but if you live, you have to die!. you can really 'live' if you dont die afterward!. i actually do want to die, just not any time soon!. i am kinda looking forward to what happens later, but i am in no hurry to leave what i know for walking into the dark, waiting to find whats behind the door!.

well, i hope you have a wonderful day, and may you and your loved ones have many happy years ahead to enjoy one another's company!!!

The answer to your question ' why do we have to die!?' The answer is quite obvious!. If we live then we have to die as well!. IT is the simple matter and balance of life!. When you die, according to what you believe in, you will be reborn or you will go to a better or much worse place!. It is like we have good and bad in this world!. If you were not to die then there would be no rebirth and or over populatons and we would all die from a world war three!.

Try this philosophy on!. Subjective immortality!. We can never know what it is to experience death because death isn't an experience!. It is the end of experience!. However, we can have the experience of dying!.

However, that's not of much use to most people, they're looking for objective immortality!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I definitely do not want to die!. But, if we didn't have to worry about having only a limited time to live, we would not attempt to make the best of our lives, because we would have an unlimited amount of time to waste!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

To bring life to others; we all die and return to the earth via decomposition!. Our broken down bodies provide other organisms with vital nutrients for life!. It's all a cycle!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
