No. On the contrary; it is right.
Once one is clear on who dies, the fear of death vanishes. The fear is to the ego which will die with the body. The ego has a strong survival instinct and will grasp at various externals to keep going.
To the realized person, who knows that the ego is not the reality, there is no fear of death.
As to the righteousness of glory, an enquiry as;'To whom is the glory?', will reveal that this is also the machination of the ego subtly trying to usurp a hold. Once this is realized this too will pass.

I understand what you mean. I'm taking this as you are very religious and you know where you are going when you die. Such as, I am christian so I know that for me, being here on earth is just to prove myself to God. Life on earth is meaningless. I think it's good you don't fear death. Fearing death will make living life less enjoyable. I wasn't assuming your religion is christianity if it isn't. I was just using myself as an example. I'm just relating to the fact that you know what will happen to you after your body has passed. The body is nothing. Our souls-beings will be forever

In my opinion, I'd like to see the last expression on the face of a person who is not afraid of death.

That is an interesting way of looking at life. I used to be afraid of dying , until i realize that it is a part of life. And that their is a better place after this.

You'll be right at home on a medieval battlefield.
Too bad you're born in the wrong era.

Theres no reason why we should scare death because thats what we will all end up to and besides its only the body that will die not our soul. :->
