Life After Death By Benjamin Franklin

People need to constantly be aware of this fact and they need to be prepared for anything that life throws at them. Jobs states, “No one wants to die.” This is true. Most people are afraid of the unknown. No one person knows what happens when we die and nobody can prove anything that has been said about death because all of the people who can prove what happens after death are dead. There are people in this world who accept death with open arms or people who have a longing to die, but most never go through with it because of the fact that they are afraid of what happens after

Buddhism teaches rebirth not reincarnation, meaning that the mind will be reborn. It teaches the eight consciousness, which is where Karma is stored for each person. Reincarnation involves the new body but the same mind and soul, the new mind and the new body would be in future realities. When someone dies on earth the body and mind will deteriorate, while the new mind will ascend in the new body immediately. Since there is no self the mind is the one that suffers and achieves nirvana. There is a condition of suffering but not an actual person that suffers, the mind clings to a group of physical and mental elements such as the body of someone and their partner, but it brings suffering. When the mind is liberated from craving and clinging it

Nothing in life is certain except one single thing: death and it is coming for us all.

You’ve probably heard the old saying. “Only two things in life are certain: death and taxes” It’s true: at some point, we all will die. Although you may think death is an unpleasant subject, it is something that everybody must cope with. People are different all over the world, but death is one thing that everyone has in common. ( Stair, choosing a career in mortuary science and the funeral industry 6)

Indeed, no one knows about death for we do not have the divine wisdom to know all of the things happen around us. Since the limitation of our knowledge to the unknown of certain things, it also normal to believe

As for the suffering that comes with ones death, most religions agree upon the fact that there will only be suffering if the one who is dying has indulged him/herself in the material world or sinned as some call it, without focusing much on the hereafter. The Buddhists, similar to this, believe in karma and re-birth and that one of the conditions that leads to suffering are the ‘conditions’ that are said to be responsible for rebirth (the intentions that influence actions and bring some sort of karmic fruit). They believe that by learning the karmic causal laws we might be able to avoid those karmic causal links and receive rebirth in better circumstances. I believe that the suffering of others for one person’s death comes from a very limited understanding of

Death, the only guarantee in life yet, it is something we prefer to ignore. We are disturbed by it because it is a complete mystery, it is overwhelming to think about, and only brings sorrow to the living. Although death is the end to our lives with no known afterlife we should not ignore it but we should not dwell on it either because it will keep us from enjoying our present and have us living in fear.

Death is a necessary part of life, world religions revolve around it, and it drives people to accomplish more in life. One of the most common appearances of the topic death is in religion. Holy books such as the Bible, the Vedas, and the Tripitaka, show many different views on what death is and what happens to

Buddhists do believe in rebirth implies that when they die, they will be reborn, back to life again. The purpose is to break out the phase of death and rebirth and achieve nirvana (heaven) or a state of ideal peace. There are many diverse types of Buddhism and many different ways of dealing with death. It is believed that a dying person may seek a monk or nuns in their scrupulous Buddhist tradition to assist them make the transition from life to death as peaceful as possible. Buddhists believe that a person’s state of mind as they die is very important as it can assist them to find a happy state of rebirth when they pass away. Before and at the moment of death and for duration of time after the death, the monk, nun or spiritual friends

To Buddhism, karma, next life, is very important. Hell and heaven system is very complicated and depend on what you do, you will get your punishment depend on stage and the same thing of reward system. Buddhism’s goal is to come out of samsara, just like Buddha did, which mean the circle reincarnation. They believe being human is pain and the souse of all evilness but they become human because they have to make their self better and learning from earth what they needed to do to be better. And by that way they shall not kill or commit and crime or attract by lust, money or power. Human can be existed in most living thing so it is possibility if you killed a bug, you may have killed a person reincarnated into a bug. And it is very important to have sympathy on anything you do and not to let anyone hold grudge on you cause anytime you had accident or bad things come to you, maybe somebody in a spirit form tried to even out what you do in your past life, cause to Buddhism, nothing is coincident.

Unlike the Egyptians that believe in life after death. The Buddhism's believe that once you die you die, and your heart doesn’t come back to life. In Hinduism, they believe in the reincarnation. Which is when you die and you have bad karma you have to go through the reincarnation stage over and over again. Which if you die by murder, or suicide, then you soul gets to roam around wherever you died for years as a ghost. Buddhists are way different than every other religion. Which is a good thing that they are different but also a bad thing, because then a lot of people might not go to the religion. I think this because everyone knows how all the other religions operate. But in Buddhism once you die you die and you just sit there. Your soul doesn’t roam around the yard, but it says in your soul. In my opinion it would be very creepy to walk past somewhere, and someone’s soul is roaming around you and touching your body or the things around

Buddhists believe all of us will pass away eventually as a natural part of the world; birth old age and death. However, they believe death is not the end of life. It is said to be the end of the body that we inhabited in that life, but that our spirit will remain and seek out a new body and new life. Your new life would be based on your previous life’s karma. This is what is lead to the person being reborn in one of the six realms. These are heaven, human beings, hungry ghost, animal, Asura (lowest rank of demigods) or hell. Buddhists believe these realms are not permanent place and one does not remain in any place forever. So in Buddhism, life does not end, that the life we are in is impermanent. They believe we should not fear death, as it will lead to rebirth.

Death is something that happens to every living being, but the everlasting question remains: "What happens to someone after they have passed on?". In eastern religions or cultures, one would answer that the individual has gone to Heaven. In some nonwestern cultures, death is not the end, but it is an all-new beginning. Buddhism and Hinduism, two of the oldest religions in the world, are two non-western religions that believe in the philosophy of reincarnation. Buddhism and Hinduism are considered non-western because they are not practiced in western countries such as the United States. Reincarnation happens when the consciousness or spirit of someone who has passed will resurrect as something different (Reincarnation). Karma is one of the factors in deciding reincarnation. Reincarnation is fascinating because in the western religions, Christianity for example, believe that when someone dies their soul goes to Heaven or some sort of afterlife. Death is something in the universe that is consistent no matter who or what someone is.

The title says that there is life after death, but what is our idea of death itself? In religious terms, when our body is separated with our spirit then that is death. But the common understanding about death is the permanent stop of all our organs which would no longer process. Legends also say that an old man holding a scythe has the power to destroy or end a person’s life, people call this old man as “The Grim Reaper.” But with all these ideas about death itself would you believe that there is such thing as life after death?

Christianity, one of the most popular religions in the world with 2.4 billion adherents worldwide according to Wikipedia, believes that a sort of heaven exists for the afterlife (1). After death you are transported to this place for following the religion to live there for eternity. The religion of Hinduism believes in the act of Reincarnation, which is the rebirth of a soul in a new body. They believe that when we humans die, we are brought back as another living entity depending on the deeds of your previous life. The religion of buddhism believes that the status of your afterlife is not the end, it is either a reward or punishment for the conduct of one’s life. These are just a few examples of the many after death assumptions by religious groups, all of which with many followers. I am personally not a religious person, but it is hard to deny the overwhelming presence of afterlife thoughts and predictions by individuals. A large amount of the population devotes faith to the possibility that death is not our true demise and there are experiences and continuation after that point in life. If death is not our final fate in so many people's minds, then how can it be? This question could be answered sooner than you think, thanks to
