The Illuminating Brilliance of Death

You might be wondering why I would describe death as illuminating... Death is often portrayed as dark and scary... But this is not the true nature of death. This dark and scary image of death is nothing more than our collective projection... It is nothing more than the projection of our own fears.

The truth is, death illuminates life. Death brings about a sort of clarity that is hard to grasp in our day-to-day 'busying'. Until you understand and accept the inevitability of death, you can't really begin to comprehend and appreciate the gifts of life.

Death holds the power to penetrate the veil of illusion that masquerades as reality. Contemplate death and you will glimpse into what it truly means to be alive.
