Answer 2

Welcome to parenting. Every kid sees something that makes them afraid that Mommy or Daddy won't be coming home tonight. It is a phase of development that says her brain is suddenly able to comprehend the nature of her dependence on you. She is really saying, "How can I survive without you" but can't express it that way yet. Telling her about Heaven at this age does no good because it avoids the real question. Hate to break it to you, but she doesn't care whether you go to a nice place right now. Later, that might very well change. But right now she doesn't want you to go ANYWHERE. Here's the not so good news. That will fade but not go away until the final stage of brain development, starting in her early teen years. It is at that point that she becomes capable of abstract thought, at which time deeper discussions about death and religion can occur in a way that she will follow. Young kids, though, are like that cartoon about what a dog hears when the master speaks. They need love, encouragement, understanding, and reassurance that you weren't planning to leave them alone and untended. They need to know that someone will take care of them until they are big enough to do so on their own. Right now, age 5, she can't fathom that idea. The words you need are to advise her that her fear is just a fear, not a reality. Like a bad dream. Let her express the fear openly and let her know that you understand that she is afraid. But comfort her by saying, it was only a bad dream. Don't let her go to sleep without reassuring her that you will be there when she wakes up. This is a phase that you can live through with patience.

Answer 3

When we were born, were you happy? No, because you donot know anything at that time. Only those surrounding you including parents were happy.

So, when you die, will you be happy??Yes, because you had know everything at that time. Only hose surrounding you including children would be sorrow. You have nothing to feel sorrow. As Lord Krsihna said in Bhagavat Gita, What did you bring when you were born, so what is there for you to take when you die. Accept the death as a natural process of human existence and you will face death happily.

But the trouble is: a) What age would you die, b) Are you satisfied with what you have achieved in this life, c) Are you in liability at the time of death. Depending on these answers, you may face death with sorrowness.

Answer 4

Practice for death. If you are religious, follow your religion's instructions for going to heaven or achieving a better life in your next life. Among Hindus, during the time of death, people usually bring a picture of Shri Krsna for the dying person to look at. Some also put a Tulsi leaf and Ganga water in the dying person's mouth. And sometimes religious hymns are played.
If death comes suddenly (like in an accident), what happens to you after death depends on your karma.

Answer 5

We know that death is the inescapable reality of life, then why worry about something over which we have no control? Death does not concern us coz as long as we exist death is not there and when it finally comes we no longer exist.
Our life is like a staircase, we keep on climbing the stairs all throughout life and death comes when we have climbed all the stairs and there is no step to climb further. Its a dead end. We are sad and shocked to know that our end has come but somewhere at the back of our mind we always knew that every staircase has an end.

Answer 6

How can we face death happily?

When we do not know that what we are facing is death and that we actually are facing something we are pleased to see and are happy to see ...

*****************************

From birth to death we undergo a certain conditioning which puts into our head and underlines our existence that we must stabilize ourselves - Financially, emotionally and socially.

Do we even know about death when we are kids? When a kid is diagnosed with lets say, cancer - does the kid know that s /he is to DIE? Honestly, who puts it into the head of the child that s/he is dying? Does a child recognise the 'concept' of death? So, for such an innocent ignorant being when death does come calling - s/he does not know death and goes ... happily? Maybe s/he wanted to make a few more mud cakes beneath the banyan tree which will now not be made ... by him / her ... but does that count as unhappiness?

When do we understand 'death' ? When we lose someone to death and know that the dead will no longer come back to us. The understanding that 'life' is limited ...

But do the dead trully leave us?

If in my lifetime I am blessed with a man who will love me, and we have lived life together in which each momment spent with him I know that he trully loves me and is happy - and one day I find him dead - I'd live the rest of my life his widow - happily; and NOT look forward to death but live my life. Why? Because the love shown and shared by the man who loves me I know has never gone ... I'd not miss him, I'd know his love for me is always with me.

When death comes for me, I'd go happily knowing I've no regrets and have lived my life and left behind my love ... in the form of children or a love story ...

Answer 7

I don't think happily is the word to use when facing death. There is acceptance and even desire, but I don't believe you can be happy about it. If you are told you are dying, you go through the anger, denial and eventually acceptance. If you are suffering terribly you can desire the release death offers you. But happy? I don't think so. Especially after spending a life time of "stabilizing ourselves financially and socially" then you want to enjoy that as long as you can, with a certain quality of life, and die when it's time with your dignity intact. I don't think they particularly look foward to death as the end of their story, but something that will come whether they want it or not.

Answer 8

Because by having acheived what you needed to in life and having that great feeling, I believe you'll be ready. Death is only the beginning for I do not belive it's the end. You will be reunited with all loved ones from all past lives and you will, once again, choose another path/life to have the next time around. We're not gone when we die. We choose our lives and we will be back.

Call me crazy, I don't care but when you're time comes you'll be ready for it and hopefully with a great feeling of accomplishment in life.

Answer 9

we should face our death as shaking hand with a friend whom we just thought of, now its time to meet him.
we should also enjoy talking the last breath and enjoy even the last second in this beautiful world so that we can show this world that even death (natural) is part of our living.

Answer 10

"Happily" I not sure about that, all the things you have done and all that you know you will leave behind but you will finally know what nobody on this planet knows, look forward to an adventure, at worst a blank! you return to the elements from where you came, at best you enter into what you believe in.
