The beauty in death

[dust-in-the-wind]

Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, no today and no tomorrow. To forget time, to forget life, and to finally be at peace.

 

[KillingPain267]

Yeah, in the grave in death "...the wicked cease from troubling; and there the weary be at rest. There the prisoners rest together; they hear not the voice of the oppressor. The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master." (Job 3:17-19).

We don't know that for sure! There is after life and there is hell or heaven! But even tho I won't call death beauty. You lay down god knows with what method. Your body is purple or blue. You stinks after your organ dies and you lose your muscle so everything in your stomach goes out with bad smell. And then ants, flies and scary insects come to live in you. Sorry I'm just typing what I know from experience. Death is very scary.

It would be wonderful to be able to experience it.

Ecclesiastes agrees:

And I declared that the dead,
who had already died,
are happier than the living,
who are still alive.
But better than both
is the one who has never been born,
who has not seen the evil
that is done under the sun.
(Ecclesiastes 4:2-3)

Been thinking about this a lot lately. There is a very fringe philosophy that basically says that all things, living and non basically are striving towards The Will to Death. What this means is that all things in the universe are striving towards annihilation, not through a conscious choice, but rather an unseen force that compels everything toward total entropy. That is, completely exhausted of all energy. Other words, Death. Looking around the way the world is and the destructive chaos of the universe, one cannot help but see the same. It goes a lot deeper than this, but that is the basic premise. And yes, Death is beautiful because it means peace and the end of suffering, therefore it's what all things strive towards to achieve perfect balance and harmony. After all, nothing exists, neither does suffering or needs and wants. Chaos and destruction therefore cannot occur and everything is at complete peace. This is true Heaven. Bliss in non existence.

It depends on how you are buried. If in an air tight coffin & embalmed body, decay is slower and no insects will get in. I want a green burial in a shroud or card board coffin where the insects can get in and feed off my remains. That way I am giving back to nature. The birds will eat the insects, other animals will eat the birds and so on. Try to look at it as the cycle of life and not as a scary experience.

I have no fear of darkness and the unknown. It intrigues me really.

Me neither. I am fascinated with the darkness and what lies beyond. No fear here.

 

[Chietal]

I wish I could find the dmc sn source. I would take it in a heartbeat because I don't fear dying.

Entropy is a depressing concept. The universe itself will eventually become disordered unable to sustain life. But on a basic level...
Aging is a process of entropy accumulation, where people lose control of their body functions and become more disordered.
Death is a state of maximum entropy, where a person is completely disordered.

All pointing towards The Will to Death. Whether we realize it or not, we obey it regardless not because it's in our nature, it's because we exist TO reach this state ultimately.

"Hell" in the Scriptures, if you study the original languages, is just death in the grave. We return to dust (Genesis 3:19). Scriptures don't teach that redeemed humans "go to heaven", but rather that we rise again physically to live forever on a new restored EARTH at the end of the world after judgment (2 Peter 3:13). The lost will rise again also, but only to be executed in a "second death", after which they are dead carcases forever with no promise to ever live again (Revelation 20:14, Isaiah 66:24).

I agree. But why? The force that drives entropy, could this be "God"?

Death Cab for Cutie..

 

[Bootleg Astolfo]

As a goth adjacent man, the entire death thing has quite the pleasant aesthetic if done correctly

 

[avoid_slow_death]

Yes. In the beginning, there was a conscious singularity that is everything we know and don't know compressed into a single point. What we label as God. It existed outside of both time and space. At some point, it decided that non existence was preferable to existence and to achieve that end, it shattered itself and scattered the pieces into the void creating the universe as we know it. In summation, we are the decaying corpse of God all following it's Will. The Will to Death.

the law of entropy by itself shows there is no afterlife. the whole universe is going towards maximum entropy where no work , no life can exist. everything requires a constant energy source . imo it's beyond ridiculous to think that there is some undetected unseen power source that powers a human soul for a septitillion to the quadrillion power years or long after the universe has disordered to heat Death. a human brain requires eating all the time to power this torture chamber a brain that can suffer unending constant unbearable pain. there is no power source to power any soul for a septillion to the quintillion power years there is no power source nor soul at all. a phone needs constant charging too just like a brain needs constant feeding of food , a car gasoline etc.

it's ufathomable for me to think that people believe that a human soul can exist for numbers so big that you would need books to write all the digits. no 90 years or whatever a human primates life is enough suffering and torture .

I have a goth friend that is a funeral director and loves it

 

[ShatteredSerenity]

Ceasing the constant stream of mental anguish will be so beautiful.

The "big bang" theory. Some say we are the universe's (or God's) way of experiencing itself.

 

[avoid_slow_death]

No, in this scenario God is already dead and we are merely the decaying parts of its corpse. The big bang, as we call it, WAS it's death. We are simply the after product and destined to fade away along with everything else in existence.

That what I want . To not worry about the future or obsess about the past.just to feel free from everything

 

[tbh2023]

I agree. But why? The force that drives entropy, could this be "God"?

I'm not a believer my friend, I used to but not anymore. I lost faith due to personal struggle, and I'm killing my self regardless. I hate God if he exist why the torture? Why we have to be born to begin with? But I've seen dead people. It's not beautiful. We end up insects home. I just don't believe that our souls die too. I think there is some type of another life after death.

Ok gotcha. Interesting concept.
