Katopanishad talks about death. A young boy wants to die and goes to meet death. For 3 days he waits for death to come to him. Death was not there when he goes to meet death. Death is a frightening experience when it comes to you, not when you go to death without fear, voluntarily, consciously. This is not committing suicide. We are talking about facing the psychological fear of death. Nachiketa, the young lad, was finally received as a guest by Yama, God of death, and given boons and the knowledge of Death.
IT IS POSSIBLE TO CONQUER DEATH!
When you get the knowledge that you are never going to die, bliss blooms, you are in ecstasy. Your life is transformed from fear to fearlessness, from death to deathlessness.
