Hello. Oksana Manoilo is with you and we will discuss the questions: How not to be afraid of death. What is death and should we be afraid of it? This is not the first time we have returned to the topic, as many people are concerned about it.
How not to be afraid of death? Death has always been a source of fear for living beings, including humans. She does not divide them according to their actions. She doesn't care who they were or what they did, how talented or famous they were. She's just doing her thing.
What is death really?
It can be interpreted from a great variety of points of view known in our time. However, is death really what we imagine? Is this the end of everything and beyond is just emptiness? Or maybe heaven awaits us, or the depths of hell, depending on our deeds? In this article I will try to tell you what death is from an esoteric point of view and how not to be afraid of death. 
If we discard all prejudices and speculations, then all that remains is the cessation of the functioning of the physical body. What happens to consciousness at this moment is no longer known for certain, but many believe that since consciousness is a consequence of the work of the brain, it also disappears.
However, is consciousness really just an effect and not a cause? A person’s body is, in fact, just his vehicle for the soul in this world. is immortal, and after the death of the body she leaves it, having received certain experience from life.
Where will the soul be after death?
Where the soul is during the intermediate phase, no one knows. This could be a completely different dimension, where reality is not three-dimensional and perception is not limited only by our current knowledge.
After spending some time, if of course it exists there, in the subtle world, the soul, based on the experience received from past lives, karmic debts (more on them below), as well as the experience that it still wants to receive, sets the configuration of the new life, choosing the time and place of birth, as well as future fate. Then she begins her new life, having previously blocked all memory of past lives and limitless knowledge so that they do not interfere with gaining new experience.
Is it possible to remember a past life?
Of course, there are techniques with which you can remember your previous incarnations, but although this provides certain advantages, it also has certain disadvantages. There have been cases when, having remembered his past life, a person could no longer calmly live his current one, constantly tormented by the ghosts of a past that no longer exists. Therefore, you can engage in such practices only at your own peril and risk.
Does the soul suffer while in , depending on its actions during life? Most likely no.
The soul in the subtle world feels the endless flows of cosmic energies, travels through time and space, and has many more possibilities that we cannot understand or comprehend due to the limitations of our consciousness.
This can hardly be called suffering.
Laws of the Universe
However, this does not mean that you can do absolutely any obscenity, and it will not come back to haunt you. Two laws of the universe are still very effective and invariably punish people for crimes: the law of the boomerang and the law of karmic debt.
About the boomerang, I think everything is already known. Whatever you do will come back to you. This is not just a warning that parents use to scare their children, but a valid law of the universe. For the negativity that you cause to other people, it will return to you in kind, maybe not immediately and not in the form in which it was sent, and it may not seem to have anything to do with it at all, but it will certainly return. Fortunately, the boomerang law works not only for bad deeds, but also for good ones. Kindness, love, tenderness also return. And how. Remember this.
What is karma?
As for karma, many people already know about this. Karma is influenced by almost all our actions, and perhaps even thoughts, if they are aimed at harming other people. Having accumulated sins during one of its incarnations, the soul will be forced to atone for them in the next, if it does not have time in the current one, and maybe in the next ones, if there were enough sins for ten lives ahead.Moreover, exactly the way you sinned towards another person will be treated towards you. There are quite a lot of examples: steal - you will lose your property, kill - you will pay with your life, have a beautiful appearance and play with people’s feelings - expect problems with them in the next life, constantly drink or use drugs - say goodbye to your health and say hello to chronic diseases , and not only in this life. You should not accumulate karmic debts. Getting rid of them is difficult, time-consuming and unpleasant.
Why you shouldn't rush death
Some might think that since after death the soul simply begins a new life, then maybe suicide is really a way out of a difficult life situation? Like, I’ll just go to the next round, I’ll have better luck there.
I hasten to assure you that this is not so. Suicide is one of the most serious crimes leading to a huge karmic debt. During rebirth, you are entrusted with a mission - yours, and unauthorized departure from life is a direct refusal to fulfill it. You remain indebted to the Universe and your own soul, and this will not be in vain for you, rest assured.
Suicide
After suicide, your soul does not get the experience it was intended to have. And so your life will repeat itself again with minor changes. And it’s not a fact that it’s for the better. Typically in such situations, gender and sexual orientation change, or vice versa.
Plus the circumstances that forced you to commit suicide. Sometimes they only get worse so you can learn to overcome them. Therefore, we do not advise you to hastily leave this life. After all, this won’t make anyone feel better, especially you.
If you are in a difficult situation, do not rush to take your own life. And remember - there are no unsolvable problems. Write to me and go through. I will help you look at the problem from a different angle and find a solution.
So, should you be afraid of death? Of course no. Fear of death is somewhat reminiscent of fear of the dark. When we are afraid of darkness, we are not afraid of the darkness itself, but of what may be hidden in it. People tend to be afraid of the unknown. However, now you know everything, don’t you?
Of course, there is also the instinct of self-preservation, which independently evokes in life-threatening situations, but it is not worth fighting with it, because it helps rather than hinders.
Knowledge is a great privilege and it is within your power to obtain it. You can learn more about the soul and its blocked capabilities from other articles on our website.
How can one not be afraid of death?
Death is an integral part of life, and without it the existence of the world is impossible. There is no point in being afraid of it, because it is inevitable and there is no suffering after it. Just bathing in the energies of the universe. And awareness of all your past incarnations for some time. And then a new life. Don't be afraid of her, but don't rush to meet her either. Everything has its time. And when she comes, meet her without regrets or fear in your heart, and with a smile on your face.

It can be assumed that of all scientific disciplines, it is philosophy that should be more interested in research into the phenomenon of near-death experiences (NDEs) and carefully study them. After all, isn't philosophy concerned with questions of higher wisdom, the meaning of life, the relationship between body, mind and God?
PSPs provide data that is directly related to all of these issues. How is it possible that philosophy manages to collectively ignore and even ridicule these studies? It may seem incredible to those outside of academic philosophy that the vast majority of academic philosophers are atheists and materialists. By incorrectly using science to support their materialism, they systematically ignore scientific evidence that disproves their worldview.
What is even more surprising is that even those philosophers who are not materialists (and I think there are a growing number of them) refuse to look at this data. One might think that Cartesian dualists or Platonists would eagerly seize on evidence that strongly supports their view that consciousness transcends the physical world, but this is not the case.
To my surprise, he was just as skeptical as my fundamentalist materialist colleague. When I asked him why he was not interested, he replied that his beliefs in God, the afterlife, etc. based on faith; if these things were empirically proven, there would be no room left for faith, which is the basis of his religious beliefs.
I realized that PSPs are caught between two fires because they are not taken seriously by the two sciences, philosophy and theology, which should be interested in this phenomenon. Once theology and religion open the door to empirical data, there is a danger that this data may contradict some aspects of faith. Indeed, this is what happened.
The PSP data, for example, says that God is not vengeful, he does not punish or condemn us, and is not angry with us for our “sins”; Of course, condemnation exists, but, in this all the stories about PSP agree, this condemnation comes from the individual himself, and not from the Divine being.
It seems that all God can give us is unconditional love. But the concept of an all-loving, non-punishing God is contrary to the teachings of many religions, so it is not surprising that religious fundamentalists do not feel comfortable.
Strange allies
Over the years, I have come to the conclusion that both atheist and believer, from fundamentalist to fundamentalist, have something in common. Indeed, from an epistemological point of view, this commonality is much more important than the ways in which their views differ. They agree on the following: beliefs relating to the possible existence of a transcendental reality - God, soul, afterlife, etc. - are based on faith, not facts. If this is the case, then there can be no factual evidence to support these beliefs.
The belief that belief in a transcendental reality cannot be empirically verified is so deeply ingrained in our culture that it has the status of a taboo. This taboo is very democratic because it allows everyone to believe what they want to believe. This allows the fundamentalist to feel comfortable in the belief that reason is on his side, that there is no afterlife, and that those who believe differently have fallen prey to irrational forces of wishful thinking. But it also allows the fundamentalist to feel comfortable in the belief that God is on his side and those who think differently have fallen prey to the forces of evil and the Devil.
Thus, although the fundamentalist and the fundamentalist materialist take extreme opposing positions on the issue of attitudes toward the afterlife, these extreme positions unite them as “strange allies” in the struggle against the actual evidence of the afterlife that empirical research can reveal. The very suggestion that empirical research can confirm beliefs in a transcendental reality contradicts this taboo and threatens many elements of our culture.
Meaning of life
The PSP study has led to the following unequivocal conclusion: those who have experienced the PSP affirm the core values common to most of the world's religions. They agree that the purpose of life is knowledge and love. A study of the transformative impact of PSP shows that cultural values such as wealth, status, materialism, etc. become much less important, and eternal values such as love, caring for others and the divine become more important. That is, the study showed that survivors of PSP not only verbally proclaim the values of love and knowledge, but also try to act in accordance with these values, if not completely, then at least to a greater extent than before PSP.
As long as religious values are presented as just religious values, it is easy for popular culture to ignore them or mention them in passing during a Sunday morning sermon. But if those same values are presented as empirically proven scientific facts, then everything will change. If the belief in an afterlife is accepted not on the basis of faith or speculative theology, but as a verified scientific hypothesis, then our culture will not be able to ignore it. In reality, it will mean the end of our culture in its present form.
Consider the following scenario: further research into the PSP confirms in detail what has already been discovered; even more cases of confirmed authentic “out-of-body” experiences have been collected and documented; advanced medical technologies are making even more cases of the “smoking gun” type described above possible; the study of those who have experienced PSP confirms the already noted change in their behavior associated with newly acquired (or recently strengthened) spiritual values, etc. Research is duplicated in different cultures with the same results.
Finally, the weight of factual evidence begins to tell, and scientists are ready to announce to the world, if not as a fact, then at least as a sufficiently confirmed scientific hypothesis:
(1) There is an afterlife.
(2) Our true identity is not our body, but our mind or consciousness.
(3) Although the details of the afterlife are unknown, we are sure that everyone will have a review of his life, during which he will experience not only every event and every emotion, but also the consequences of his behavior, positive or negative. The usual defense mechanisms by which we hide from ourselves our sometimes cruel and unmerciful attitudes towards others do not seem to operate during life review.
(4) The meaning of life is love and knowledge, to learn as much as possible about this world and the transcendental world and to increase our ability to feel kindness and mercy towards all living beings.
(5) Harming others, both physically and psychologically, will result in great trouble for us, since any pain caused to others will be experienced as our own during the review.
This scenario is by no means far-fetched. I believe there is enough evidence to present the above statements as "probable" and "more possible than not." Further research will only increase this likelihood.
When this happens, the effect will be revolutionary. When science announces these discoveries, it will no longer be possible to do things the same way as before. It would be interesting to speculate on what an economy would look like that attempted to meet the five empirical hypotheses above, but that is beyond the scope of this article.
The discoveries of PSP researchers will mark the beginning of the end of a culture driven by greed and ambition, which measures success in terms of material wealth, reputation, social status, etc. Consequently, modern culture has a great interest in obstructing PSP research by ignoring, refuting, and downplaying research findings.
I'll end this article with a little story. Charles Broad, writing in the mid-20th century, was president of the British Society for Physical Research. He was the last philosopher of international reputation who believed there was something to it. Towards the end of his life he was asked how he would feel if he discovered that he was still alive after the death of his physical body. He replied that he would rather be disappointed than surprised. He wouldn't be surprised, since his research led him to conclude that an afterlife most likely exists. Why are you disappointed? His answer was disarmingly honest.
He said he had lived a good life: he was financially secure and had the respect and admiration of his students and colleagues. But there is no guarantee that his status, reputation and wealth will continue in the afterlife. The rules by which success is measured in the afterlife may be completely different from the rules by which success is measured in this life.
Indeed, PSP research suggests that Charles Broad's fears are well founded, that "success" by other world standards is measured not in terms of publications, merit, or reputation, but in kindness and compassion for others.

What is Consciousness?
Is there life after death, and is there death after life - questions that have always worried humanity. In the 21st century, there has been a certain shift in the study of this issue. It is not yet possible to say with one hundred percent certainty that the death of the body does not end the life of the spirit. But numerous facts accumulated by science over many years and recent scientific developments in this area say that death is not the final station. Research and experimental materials published in scientific publications by P. Fenwick (London Institute of Psychiatry) and S. Parin (Southampton Central Hospital) prove that human Consciousness does not depend on brain activity and continues to live when all processes in the brain have ceased. Brain cells, according to scientists, are no different from other cells in the body. They produce various chemicals and proteins, but do not create any thoughts or images that we take for consciousness. The brain performs the functions of a “living TV”, which simply receives waves and converts them into image and sound, which creates a complete picture. And if so, scientists conclude, then consciousness continues to exist even after the death of the body.
At the end of the article VIDEO: One hundred percent, there is no death...
What is Consciousness?
Simply put, turning off the TV does not mean all TV channels disappear. If you turn off the body, consciousness will not disappear either.
But first, we need to understand what consciousness is.
A person spends most of his life in an unconscious state. This does not mean that he does not control his actions, cannot think logically, carry on a conversation, or do other things.
No. It’s just that at this time he is not aware of himself as a person. For the last two days, for example, I have been moving to another apartment. I packed my things, went to the store, ordered transport.
At some point, while sealing the box with tape, I suddenly realized that for several hours now a twenty-year-old song had been playing in my head, and I was humming it to myself.
Why the hell did she fly into my head, because I definitely didn’t hear her in the last hours, I spent them unconsciously, doing routine work, not realizing that it was me, it was I who was doing it.
What kind of translator launched the hit song of yesteryear into my brain? One can, of course, assume that it was generated by the brain, but then one must admit that it performs stupid and unnecessary work, which consumes a lot of energy.
I don't think evolution hasn't cut off this useless function. One will inevitably agree with the hypothesis that the brain picks up signals and thoughts from the outside, and does not generate them.
But academician Andrei Dmitrievich Sakharov wrote that he cannot imagine human life and the Universe without a source of spiritual “warmth”, without a meaningful beginning that lies outside matter.
Life of the soul after the death of the body
Renowned physicist and professor at the Institute of Regenerative Medicine Robert Lanza states that death simply does not exist. Death is not the end of life, but the transition of our “I”, our Consciousness into a parallel world.
He is also confident that the world around us depends on our Consciousness and everything that we see, hear and feel does not exist without it.
An interesting idea was put forward by the American scientist anesthesiologist S. Hameroff. He believes that our soul and Consciousness have always existed in the Universe, since the Big Bang, that the soul consists of the fabric of the Universe itself, and has a different, more fundamental structure than neurons.
In conclusion, let's remember the views of Academician of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences, Professor Natalya Petrovna Bekhtereva, about whom we have already written. For a long time, Natalya Petrovna headed the Institute of the Human Brain and was convinced of the afterlife of the soul. In addition, she herself personally witnessed posthumous phenomena.
Life after death. Proof
15 proofs of the existence of life after death
Napoleon's signature
Fact from history. After Napoleon, King Louis XVIII ascended the French throne. One night he languished without sleep. On the table lay the marriage contract of Marshal Marmont, which Napoleon had to sign. Suddenly, Louis heard footsteps, the door opened, and Napoleon himself entered the bedroom. He put on the crown, walked up to the table and held a feather in his hands. Louis didn’t remember anything else; his consciousness left him. He woke up only in the morning. The door to the bedroom was closed, and on the table lay a contract signed by the emperor. This document was kept in the archives for a long time, and the handwriting was recognized as real.
Love for mother
And again about Napoleon. Apparently, his spirit could not come to terms with such a fate, so he rushed about in unknown spaces, trying to somehow come to terms, understand his bodily life and say goodbye to dear people. On May 5, 1821, when the emperor died in captivity, his ghost appeared before his mother and said: “Today, the fifth of May, eight hundred and twenty-one.” And only two months later she found out that her son ended his earthly existence on that very day.
Girl Maria
In a state of unconsciousness, a girl named Maria left her room. She rose above the bed, saw and heard everything.
At some point I found myself in the corridor, where I noticed a tennis shoe thrown by someone. When she was brought back to consciousness, she told the nurse on duty. She was distrustful, but still went into the corridor, to the floor that Maria indicated. The tennis shoe was right there.
Broken cup
A similar case was reported by a famous professor. During the operation, his patient suffered cardiac arrest. She was dead for some time. The heart was able to start, the operation was successful, and the professor came to examine her in the intensive care ward. The woman had already recovered from anesthesia, was conscious and told a very strange story.
Opinion:
S. Hameroff believes that our soul and Consciousness have existed in the Universe since the Big Bang
During cardiac arrest, the patient saw herself lying on the operating table. Almost immediately I thought that I would die without saying goodbye to my daughter and mother, after which I found myself at home. I saw my daughter, I saw a neighbor who came to them and brought her daughter a dress with polka dots. They sat down to drink tea, and while drinking tea, the cup broke. The neighbor said it was for luck. The patient described her visions so confidently that the professor went to the patient’s family. . During the operation, their neighbor actually came to the apartment; there was a polka dot dress and, luckily, a broken cup. If the professor was an atheist, I don’t think he remained one after this incident.
Mystery of the Mummy
Incredible, but true, sometimes after death, individual fragments of the human body remain unchanged and continue to live. Monks have been found in Southeast Asia whose bodies were preserved in excellent condition.
In addition, their energy field even exceeds that of living people. They grow hair and nails and, probably, there is still something alive in them that cannot be measured by any modern instruments.
Return from Hell
Moritz Rowling, professor and cardiologist, has brought his patients out of clinical death hundreds of times during his practice. In 1977, he performed chest compressions on a young man. Consciousness returned to the guy several times, but then he lost it again. Each time, returning to reality, the patient begged Rowling to continue, not to stop, while it was clear that he was experiencing panic.
The guy was eventually brought back to life, and the doctor asked what scared him so much. The patient's response was unexpected. The patient stated that... Moritz began to study this issue, and it turned out that international practice is full of such cases.
Handwriting samples
At the age of two, when children still cannot really speak, the Indian boy Taranjit declared that, in fact, he had a different name and lived in a different village. He could not have known about the existence of this village, but he pronounced its name correctly. At the age of six, he remembered the circumstances of his death - he was hit by a motorcyclist. Taranjit was in the 9th grade at that moment and was going to school. Incredibly, after checking, this story was confirmed by Lenten, and the handwriting samples of Taranjit and the deceased teenager matched.
Birthmarks on the body
In some Asian countries, there is a tradition of marking a person's body after death. Relatives believe that in this way the soul of the deceased will be born again in the same family, and marks, in the form of birthmarks, will appear on the bodies of the children.
This is exactly what happened to a little boy from Myanmar. The birthmarks on his body exactly matched the marks on the body of his deceased grandfather.
Knowledge of foreign language
A middle-aged American woman, who was born and raised in the USA, under the influence of hypnosis suddenly began speaking in the purest Swedish. When asked who she was, the woman replied that she was a Swedish peasant.
Features of consciousness
Professor Sam Parnia, who has studied clinical death for a long time, came to the conclusion that a person’s Consciousness persists even after brain death, when there is no electrical activity and no blood flows into the brain. Over many years, he collected a large amount of evidence about the experiences and visions of patients when their brains were no more active than stone.
Out of body experience
American singer Pam Reynolds was put into an induced coma during brain surgery. The brain was deprived of blood supply, and the body was cooled to fifteen degrees Celsius. Special headphones were inserted into the ears, which do not allow sounds to pass through, and the eyes were covered with a mask. During the operation, Pam recalls, she was able to observe her own body and what was happening in the operating room.
Personality changes
Pim van Lommel, a Dutch scientist, analyzed the memories of patients who experienced clinical death. According to his observations, many of them began to look at the future more optimistically, got rid of the fear of death, and became happier, more sociable, and more positive. Almost everyone noted that it was a positive experience that made their lives different.
A happy opportunity, so to speak, presented itself to a man who himself was dealing with the problem of the existence of life after death. American neurosurgeon Alexander Eben spent seven days in a coma. Upon emerging from this state, Eben, in his own words, became a different person, because in his forced sleep he observed something that is difficult to even imagine.
He plunged into another, filled with light and beautiful music, although his brain was turned off at that time, and according to all medical indicators, he could not observe anything like that.
Visions of the Blind
It turns out that during clinical death the blind regain their sight. These observations were described by the authors S. Cooper and K. Ring. They specifically interviewed a focus group of 31 blind people who had experienced clinical death.
Without exception, even those who were blind from birth, stated that they observed visual images.
Past life
Dr. Ian Stevenson did a tremendous job and interviewed more than three thousand children who could remember something from their past life. For example, a little girl from Sri Lanka clearly remembered the name of the city where she used to live, and also described in detail the house and her past family. Before, none of her current family or even her acquaintances had any connection with this city. Later, 27 of her 30 memories were confirmed.
Opinion:
After the death of the physical body, Consciousness remains and continues to live
