Death is the ultimate truth : life Journey of Enlightened people

Friends, the fear of death is the biggest fear in life. In life, we see many people die in accidents. People are dying every day, but we never think that one day I too will have to die. This thought does not even come to mind after hearing about that incident. Like we have achieved immortality. This is our life; it is not our life; it is a journey towards death. And if not, then what? Gradually, his strength has to increase, and one day death has to come. The day we understand this ultimate truth, then real life will begin. You will be able to truly experience love; everything in this universe will seem beautiful. We will be able to understand the essence behind all this planning. The time we have can end at any time. So why don't we fulfill this life by enjoying it? Let death come when it has to come.

I had heard a beautiful speech by Osho. Osho was a great philosopher of India, and he has given a very good explanation about death in his book. He gave an example in his speech; it is very beautiful and inspiring. A saint named Eknath lived in the state of Maharashtra, India. He was a very influential and famous saint. A young man used to come to him for many days. That young man asked many questions many times. Once that young man asked a strange thing to Eknath, it was morning time, and Saint Eknath was sitting in the temple. The young man asked, "I know you and have known you for a long time, and after knowing you, many thoughts and questions arise in my mind. But I have always been hiding one question.

I used to hide it when I didn't ask. That's what I want to ask today. "Saint Eknath said, "What is it that you want to ask?" The young man said, "I want to ask: your life is absolutely pure from outside, but is there purity from within also or not?" Your life appears pure from the outside; your life appears divine, but what is there inside you? I want to ask something about the internal relationship. Do your sins arise within or not? Do evils arise within you or not?Do vices arise within you or not?" Saint Eknath said, I will tell you right now, but before that, it is very important for me to tell you one thing. Lest I forget. Tomorrow suddenly When I looked at your hand, I saw that your death is near; only seven days are left. In seven days, you will die. Let me tell you this and then answer your question.

I told you first so that I wouldn't forget. Saint Eknath said, "Now tell me what you want to ask." The young man who was sitting on the ground suddenly stood up and said, "If I get time, I will come tomorrow to ask you." His hands and legs started trembling. Saint Eknath said, "What is the hurry? It is seven days; there is still a lot of time; why is there so much panic? Everyone has to die." But the young man was no longer listening to the words of Saint Eknath. Now he turned his back and started descending the stairs of the temple. When he came, there was strength in his legs, there was power; there was strength. When I was returning, I was leaning against the wall. The one who dies within seven days has become old, and his legs started trembling on the stairs. He fell on the road, became unconscious, and people picked him up and took him home. His friends and loved ones gathered, and the news spread that the man was about to die; he would die within seven days. On the evening of the seventh day, his loved ones were crying, and the young man was lying on the bed. Saint Eknath went to his house. When he reached there, there was an atmosphere of death there, and all the people started crying after seeing him. He said, "

Don't cry; take me to that young man." When he went near him, he shook the young man and said, "My friend, did any sin arise within you during the seven days? Any evil? Any disorder? So the young man said, "You joke with a dying man." Eknath said, "You also joked with a dying man." Saint Eknath said, "Your death has not come yet. I have answered your question." The one who starts seeing death, his sins go away, and his disorders become zero. A revolution takes place inside him, and he turns his back on the world and his face towards God. Saint Eknath said, "Your death has not come yet; get up, don't panic." And Saint Eknath said, "Whether you die in seven days, after a year, or after seventy years,. What difference does it make? Death itself is a big thing." It doesn't matter how many days later it is. Death is the ultimate truth. Everyone understands that death is there; on that day, there will be a revolution in life. If we understand that death is certain, then a thirst to know life will arise. This life is a long process of death. By understanding this, we can take steps in the direction of God. Friends, that is why one who has tasted the essence of spirituality gets absorbed in God. He has to know the ultimate truth. Yes, friends, thanks for reading this far.
