"Tibetan Book of the Dead" Quotes

Death is a natural part of life. Rejoice for those around you who transform into the Force.

Do not be afraid of death. Be afraid of the unlived life.

Life and death are one thread, the same line viewed from different sides.

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live.

To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.

The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.

The dead are not dead if we have loved them truly.

When we die, our souls still have unfinished business. Death is not the end; it is the beginning of a new journey.

Death is not the extinguishing of the light, but the putting out of the lamp because the dawn has come.
