INDIANS WELCOME COVID DEATH

People forget the inevitability of the final detachment called COVID Death. The life has played its part. Age has taken its toll on interests and strength. We become tired and COVID world-weary. We then have no fear of the detaching process / death. We do not seek to hold on to all that which we desired earlier.
When it comes to COVID or any death, we are alone. We part from all our worldly possessions. Worldly friends - the friends by our position, our wealth, or our social qualities - will leave us. We will enter the dark valley alone. We will also part from those bound to us by stronger ties - our loved ones, children, brothers, sisters. We will also part from those not less dear to us.

We will relinquish everything willingly that which had our attention earlier. We welcome COVID death!

From Nowhere to Nowhere

I am feeble and a man of small virtue. I offended many. My life is wasted. Life deceived me. Ashamed to face myself, I die.

I am removing my cap; hair disheveled over my face; I leave to the elements the decay and dismemberment of my body…. They can never harm my soul. In a little while I will be gone from among you. Where, I cannot tell. From nowhere we came, into nowhere we go. Tomorrow, at sunrise, I shall no longer be here!

Now at peace, I wonder what life is? It is a flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the winter. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset. www.lastritesindia.com

Seikilos Epitaph

The Seikilos epitaph is the oldest surviving complete musical composition with the musical notation in the world. The epitaph is from the 1st century AD. The song, the melody of which is recorded, alongside its lyrics, in the ancient Greek musical notation, was found engraved on a tombstone from the Hellenistic town Tralles near Aydın, Turkey.

The Greek text found on the tombstone along with a transliteration of the words which are sung to the melody, and free English translation excluding the musical notation is below:

Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου
μηδὲν ὅλως σὺ λυποῦ
πρὸς ὀλίγον ἔστι[2] τὸ ζῆν
τὸ τέλος ὁ χρόνος ἀπαιτεῖ.

hóson zêis, phaínou
mēdèn hólōs sù lupoû
pròs olígon ésti tò zên
tò télos ho khrónos apaiteî.

While you live, shine
have no grief at all
life exists only for a short while
and Time demands his due.

A Race Won!
Everyone arrives with their date below
The fatal hour was registered in heaven
Here the time begins and ends
We all turn to dust; dust to dust;
All our mightiest works will die too.
Two hands upon the breast, the work is done;
Two pale feet crossed in rest, the race is won!

Right time to Die!

Neither science nor religion believe in complete free thought. Religion disapproves certain thoughts as blasphemous. Science disapproves certain thoughts as morbid. For example, all religions discourage us from thinking about s*x. Science discourages men from thinking about death – as it is a morbid fact!

People complain that it is a great misfortune to die before time! I ask - what is the right time to die? When a bank lends money, certain day is fixed for re-payment. Similarly, the Nature has lent us life with no certain fixed day for re-payment. There is no reason to complain - the Nature can demand life at pleasure - since it was on this condition we received life!

As for me, I depart from life as from a hotel, and not as from my home! www.lastritesindia.com

LOSS OF DEATH?

A man's losses come from his gains,
As the darkness comes from light;

Ignorance materializes from knowledge,
As weakness originates from strength;

Chaos is ever present in order,
As laziness exists in hard work;

Hate manifests from love,
As the death from life!

READY TO GREET

In the middle of youth and song,
In between feasting and festival,
In the thick of laughter and love,
Comes Death on its silent feet.

It is beyond worship or wealth
Death is the final end!
Let us get ready to greet
Death is the only friend!

ART OF LIFE = ART OF DEATH

When you see the death of a person or just be near him while he is dying you will be filled with strange sudden joy. Tears are not of sadness, or sorrow but of gratitude and blissfulness.

When a man dies naturally, living his life fully, he spreads his being into the whole nature. The people who are present there are bathed in sudden freshness, a breeze, a new fragrance, a new feeling that death is not something bad or to be afraid of…death is something to be earned, to be deserved.

The art of life IS the art of death. They both are same!

KEEP IN MIND

If we keep in mind that we will inevitably die, our lives would be completely different. If a person knows that he will die in 30 minutes, he will not bother doing trivial, stupid, or bad things during this 30 minutes. Perhaps you have 30 years before you die – how is it different from 30 minutes? www.lastritesindia.com

“He who died at Azan sends
This to comfort all his friends:
Faithful friends! It lies I know
Pale and white and cold as snow;
And ye say, "Abdallah's dead!"
Weeping at the feet and head.
I can see your falling tears,
I can hear your sighs and prayers;
Yet I smile and whisper this:
I am not the thing you kiss.
Cease your tears and let it lie;
It was mine—it is not I.”
