Death Is A Passing

Death is separation of soul from the physical body. Death becomes the starting point of a new and better life. It merely opens the door to a higher form of life; it is only the gateway to a fuller life. Birth and death are jugglery of maya. He who is born begins to die. He who dies begins to live.Life is death and death is life. Birth and death are merely doors of entry and exit on the stage of this world. In reality, no one comes, no one goes.

Brahmn or the eternal alone exists. Just as you move from one house to another house, the soul passes from one body to another to gain experience. Just as a man casting off wornout garments takes new ones, so the dweller in this body, casting off wornout bodies, enters into others that are new. Death is not the end of life. Life is one continuous never-ending process. Death is a necessary phenomenon, which every soul has to pass to gain experience for its further evolution. A man of discrimination and wisdom is not afraid of death. Every soul is a circle.The circumference of this circle is nowhere, but its centre is in the body. Death means the change of this centre from body to body.

Why, then, should you be afraid of death? Paramatman or the Supreme Soul is deathless,decay-less,timeless,causeless and spaceless. It is the source and substratum for this body,mind and the whole world.There is death for the physical body only, which is a compound of five elements.How can there be death for the eternal soul that is beyond time, space and causation? If you wish to free yourself from birth and death,you must become bodiless.

Body is the result of karmas or actions.You must not do any action with expectation of fruits. If you free yourself from raga-dvesha, or likes and dislikes, you will be free from karma. If you kill egoism only, you can free yourself from ‘raga’and ‘dvesha’.If you annihilate ignorance through knowledge of the imperishable, you can annihilate egoism.The root cause for this body is, therefore, ignorance. He who realises the eternal soul, which is beyond all sound, all sight, all taste, all touch, which is formless and attributeless, which is beyond nature, which is beyond three bodies and five sheaths, which is infinite and unchanging, self-luminous, frees himself from the jaws of death. The jivas or individual souls build various bodies to display their activities and gain experience from this world.They enter the bodies and leave them when they become unfit to live in.

They build new bodies again and leave them again in the same manner. This is known as transmigration of souls.The entrance of a soul into a body is called birth.The soul’s departure from the body is called death.A body is dead if the soul is absent.... Natural death,it is said,is unknown to unicellular organisms.When life on earth consisted of these creatures,death was unknown.The phenomenon appeared only when from unicellular,the multicellular organism evolved. Laboratory experiments have shown that after the cessation of an individual’s life,parts of the organisation can continue to function.The whiteblood corpuscles can live for months after the body from which they were withdrawn has been cremated. Death is not the end of life. It is merely cessation of an important individuality. Life flows on to achieve its conquest of the universal;life flows on till it merges in the eternal.

A brainchild of The Times of India, the world’s leading English newspapers, Times NIE nurtures progress and innovation. Adapted from the international concept, Times Newspaper in Education program (Times NIE) was initiated in India in 1985.

Today we have over 3000 schools and over 9 lac students subscribing to the programme, spanning 16 cities viz. Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kochi, Lucknow, Coimbatore, Chandigarh, Dehradun, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam, and Jaipur.

The Times of India Student edition, a customized student newspaper exclusively for the students, packs a powerful punch in terms of content that leads to a smarter and superior learning experience. The information is crafted such that it finds use in classroom discussions, thus making it relevant and current. It truly gives education a new dimension by fostering the simple habit of reading which in turn paves the way for a confident, informed and aware individual. A newspaper that inspires young minds and equips them to face challenges of today’s world, making way for global citizens.

Empowering students with new cutting-edge knowledge through various educative and informative activities is a commitment and tradition of Times NIE. The programme serves as a catalyst of education and interaction, as well as a window into the minds of the quintessential Indian youth. On a significant scale Times NIE comprises diverse interesting activities and events that boost the child’s passion for learning, while revealing hidden talent.

While you are aware that The Times of India is among the leading English Newspapers across the world, it has consummated its position as an everlasting winner. With several international awards and recognitions to its credit, The Times of India and Times NIE have validated an enduring tradition of setting the highest benchmarks in every respect. We have been awarded with the two most prestigious awards, Times NIE - World’s No.1 NIE program and The Times of India, Student Edition - World’s No.1 Newspaper for the youth in 2006 by the celebrated World Association of Newspapers (WAN).
