Since it is inevitable that we are all going to leave these physical bodies, we might as well depart with dignity and peace of mind rather than in conflict, fear and turmoil. Many great beings of history have faced death with great dignity, courage and peace of mind. The moment of departure from the physical body also offers us a great opportunity for spiritual growth. It is a moment in which we have the greatest possibility of realizing our true spiritual nature. In the previous chapter we have discussed how we can begin to live and think in such a way, as to face death more consciously, peacefully and spiritually, without fear or conflict. In this chapter we will discuss some of the ways in which we can help others to make the same preparation, especially if they are close to death. It is obvious, however, that we will not be able to help others to make changes and transformations which we have not made ourselves. Working on ourselves will be a prerequisite to helping others.

There are as many ways to meditate as there are ways to dance. The result of each dance is the same – you come closer to and communicate with your partner – in the case of meditation – the soul. But each dance flows differently. Each meditation spontaneously expresses the inner music of the moment, which is never the same.

Fear is mother of all painful emotions.

“WE HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR BUT FEAR ITSELF”
Franklin Theodore Roosevelt

Indeed fear is our greatest obstacle to happiness, peace and fulfillment on a personal, social and international level. All anger, hatred, prejudice, aggression, violence, and war can be ultimately attributed to fear.
