Death is a journey from suffering, right?
Does it become nothing when you die?
Those left behind will suffer more, right?
Isn't that suffering even for those who die?
Doesn't that mean dying is still painful?
The Buddha, Master, and His Holiness the Dalai Lama all preach reincarnation, that is, reincarnation, and even if you die, you will not become “nothing.” This is His Holiness the Dalai Lama. “Death is like changing old clothes. The reason why many people wish “I want them to be together in the other world” for the two lovers who died so that “life itself continues to live for an infinite amount of time even after the physical body has died” is because they intuit that the two of us will not become nothing even after death. The reason why memorial services such as the 49th anniversary and the 3rd anniversary are held is that there will be no deaths. When I work to send people who have passed away, I encounter a lot of truths about life that I feel in tears along with the people I have relationships with. This is Socrates. “I really have confidence that there will be regeneration. “Life comes from death, and I think the souls of the dead exist.” This is Tolstoy. “Just as we have countless dreams in this world, this world is just one of countless lives. We come to this world from a more real life, and after death, we return to normal again. This world is just one of the dreams of a more real life. That dream continues endlessly. “Until I reached my last life, a truly real life, that is, the life of God” is the physicist Niels Bohr who won the Nobel Prize. “Consciousness must be part of nature, or more generally, part of fact. Therefore, consciousness, as stipulated in quantum theory, is completely far from the laws of physics and chemistry, and we have no choice but to think about completely separate laws.”
For details, please see “Read the Dalai Lama's 'Explaining the Mysteries of Death'” in the blog “Chronicles of Feelings.” Doctor and novelist Hitoshi Kusakabe said: “Death is commonplace, and no one is distraught or cry just before death (in the case of death from illness or senility, there is no such strength left). After death, everyone has an equally peaceful expression. For the person in question, death is like a deep sleep without waking up, and nothing is felt. That's why there's no fear either.” “When fear of death becomes excessive, calm judgment becomes sluggish, and people seek health and safety more than necessary. As a result, on the contrary, they lose their health and have bad worries.” “If you die anyway, you should prepare well for the end of your life. To that end, I'm thinking of living my irreplaceable 'now' with care.” I hope you can live sincerely. Gassho

Suffering from your question
It's coming through.
The people left behind are in pain
and for those who die
When I think about people who leave behind
I think it's painful.
Death is painful isn't it
When people are born, they always die.
Even so, I want to connect with people.
because people are always going to die
If you get along with people
It's a tremendous pain when you leave.
However, they are looking for mutual understanding.
It's a sad presence.
I think it's really painful right now.
Forcibly convinced of that suffering
I don't think I'm going to force myself to accept it
When I want to be alone, I'm alone
Ask someone close to you to listen to it
Have them stay by your side
Also, please express your feelings to hasunoha
Death is death. There is nothing difficult about it itself.
Bitterness is a temporary feeling that only occurs in people's hearts.
The reason that causes suffering is painful because negative negative images are optionally linked and evoked when thinking about death.
What you think through this question is to carefully observe the inside of your heart in detail.
Originally, there was no negative image attached to “death” itself, and Buddha was also Nirvana and quietly left this world peacefully.
This is because it does not add a negative, layman's sense of negativity about death.
First of all, there are a lot of deaths at the standard of living.
The one who cuts fish sashimi is also dead. If you eat it, it's raw. If you make use of it, it will become active.
It's the same whether it's rice, eggs, or vegetables.
There's nothing wrong with eating without knowing. Problems arise when eating with such things in mind.
That's because I look at things with my thoughts.
Capturing everything from here to here, naming it life, and naming it death is a recognizable name for humans.
Even if you say it's going to be nothing, it's nothing.
Death is death.
After that, if there is someone who thinks about that person, the exchange continues.
The fact that it comes to nothing or that it's over is just you making it happen.
It's a “thought” just for you.
There will be no end to the river. The ocean, clouds, ☂, rivers, and it's a glass of water with an endless cycle.
If the Buddha were devoid of faith, then there would be no hasunoha or anything.
Death is not the end. Death becomes dark only for people who have a negative image of death that it's the end, the end, the end.
To prevent that from happening, there are places for vigils, funerals, memorial services, and sermons in Japan.
This is because by being aware of it, you can wake up with great peace of mind.

This is Kawaguchi Hidetoshi. This is my humble answer to the question.
First, just because you die doesn't mean your suffering will go away. If you die and the suffering goes away, everyone can do it quickly, whatever method you use, so it would be good if you die right away. However, this is an extreme rhetoric, and it is rejected in Buddhism as an evil opinion.
We have received the following questions before, and we have answered them.
The question was “If I die, wouldn't it be nothing? ”

Regarding matters after death, I have dealt with the two points of whether answers should be rejected as “unrecorded,” or whether it is necessary to describe the state of mind (mental inheritance/mental continuum) that continues after death.
In the recent comments below, the latter has been treated more aggressively, so please refer to it.
“About after death”

Anyway, there is of course “death suffering” as one of our eight sufferings (suffering, old suffering, sickness, death suffering, separation from love, grudge and suffering, unrequited suffering, and five great suffering).
Shakyamuni taught the teaching of what should be done to eliminate the suffering of eight struggles represented by these. This is the truth called the “Four Sacred Deceptions” (suffering, gathering, destruction, path).
Therefore, by studying and practicing Buddhism, it is our goal to make an effort to firmly eradicate such suffering.
We have dealt with the Four Noble Truths in the following questions until now, so I hope you can refer to them.

I hope you will take this opportunity to become even more interested in Buddhism and continue your studies. By all means, let's work hard together.
