Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
It's not training but to truly know who you really are.
Spirituality is the opposite of religion, religion is a substitute for spirituality. Spirituality is a direct connection to Creator The Most high.

Anyone who inflicts pain on others will suffer themself from that pain.

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil.

Everyone is afraid of death when it approaches, anyone who says otherwise is ignorant or foolish.

Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
It is a knowledge of the self, and present moment awareness that allows people to live without fear. You must reprogram yourself to forget the concept of past and future, and gain knowledge of who and what you really are. I cannot tell you what you are for it is a journey each must take in thier own way and time by looking, and searching within. I can tell you what you are not:
You are not Homo sapien, human, a race, mother, father, brother or sister.
You were never born and you can never die.

Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
I read somewhere that you leave your body before you experience the pain too much, eg if you was on fire, your body may be burning, but your soul as already left.

I hope thats true, because is sort of comforting that things can never be as bad as we imagine.
Better to live for today, than wait for a day that never comes.

Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
these experiences pain and dying are natural parts life and they are also TEMPORARY

nothing TO fear if you ask me. seems more like you'd have to convince yourself to be afraid, or maybe if a society/culture conditioned you to be that way.

you just gotta remember that at all times. everything comes and goes - happiness, joy, pain, suffering, life, death, whatever. live in the moment right now and let the chaos fly. there's CLEARLY nothing to be afraid of, ever.

create a mantra to remind yourself of all of this. some people use things like "this too shall pass" etc.

and when the fear pops into your mind, remember it again again, keep doing it until you laugh whenever the old fear replays itself in your head. it might still be there but you won't feed it and it'll just be an old programmed message doing its thing.

Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
It helped me to read books, especially ones where people have either died and come back to tell about it (Dannion Brinkley) or hypnotists who hypnotized a lot of different people and got similar replies (Journey of Souls by Michael Newton is AWESOME).

Then a few years ago I actually had a near-death experience and it was so peaceful and warm and loving and joyous that I never ever wanted to come back and even though I'm a mom with children and grandchildren who I would miss, I am now looking forward to someday returning there.

Like you, I just don't want too much pain involved but have also read that the soul leaves the body before it gets too intense, and that death is simply a birth into another realm. Watching a woman in labor, or a newborn baby all covered in blood and goo, if you didn't understand what was happening it would look horrifying; same with the death experience so I've read.

Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
i would say do an OBE to the real time zone, fly to a place youve never been before. then when you go back to your body go to the place you flew to and see if looks the same. at least then you can know that your consciousness can exist without your physical body.

convincing yourself that your consciousness will remain after death should be even easier when you travel to the true astral. when you can "see" more vividly than you ever have with your physical eyes and "hear" things that encompass your entire being more clearly than anything your eardrums can pick up. personally i haven't really been able to smell feel or taste yet but i have communicated in ROTE thought balls.

Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
Why would you want to train yourself to not fear death? Fear of death is a natural reaction. Why do you wish to be a zombie?

I will tell you a story that you will not believe. There was a time when I faced certain death. My car was out of control, on two wheels, about to flip over a cliff. Time stopped. I was at peace. I looked at the valley far below and my only thought was what a beautiful place to die. At that moment in time I saw death as a celebration. I saw the shadow of others waiting for me. It was all OK. Better than OK.. it was good.

I didn't die. My car did not go over the cliff. Instead it flipped over to its other side and then it dribbled down the road until it righted itself. The driver behind me, who had watched the "accident" mouthed a big "Wow" as he passed.

So now... Do I no longer fear death? No, I still do. It was only when death was close that I put my life in the hands of God and found peace.

That is a lie out the pit off hell, when are you going to believe there is a hell, before or when you get there. Make time to look how Jesus reveal hell all over the world to people it is a horrible place to go. If you stay ignorant of the call to turn back to God and accept Jesus as your savior I can tell you for sure you are going to hell, do you want to risk your life to be in hell for eternity just because you refuse to obey Gods word? Jesus will love to save you from the everlasting fire of hell.
Go look at Heaven and Hell testimonies. Jesus did everything to warn you of this terrible place called hell but it is still your choice He won’t force you.

Re: how can you train yourself to be not afraid of death?
Simple, start to embrace spirituality.

Research Near Death Experiences... Look up the work of Raymond Moody, considered the world's leading expert on the phenomena. Look up the reincarnation story of the boy James Leininger. Go to YouTube and search for I Survived Beyond & Back. a TV show featuring interviews with individuals who were declared medically dead, but later came back to life, and what they experienced & remembered while their physical bodies were, for better words, dead. There is lots of material out there. If you aren't comfortable with more of a faith based approach, I suggest you start be familiarizing yourself with the accounts of people who had near-death experiences.

Once you begin to embrace this concept, you will come to the acknowledgement that your current lifetime, is just a brief trip on a much grander journey! The physical body can perish, but the soul/spirit is infinite and can never be destroyed.

This process and understanding will not come overnight. It will take time. But you will find that the understandings will completely change your perspective in your current lifetime and put you at much greater ease from the thoughts that otherwise would cause you much stress and anxiety in this current life.

Good luck on your journey friend!

You know I know where I am going to, and I love you enough to plead with you to just go and look at these testimonies
to save your own life. Read only the Bible dont trust people the Bible are the true word of God. If you want to risk your life dont take others with you.
Please turn back to God there is no time left!!

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 4056753


Yes you can train yourself in this mannor but it isnt easy but here we go.
first you need to start going for walks in the dark by yourself no flashlight in the woods.And yes you need to push yourself and what i do is tell my self while im out that im the only thing in the dark to fear yes i understand this sounds very stupid but i like to do it all the time it has made me very strong.just wait till you get to the point when yo can go out in 30 degree weather at night no shoes no shirt no flashlight in middle of nowhere by yourself walk through dense woods thorns briers rocks cliffs etc you will understand iff you do.
second you need to put yourself in a series of compromising possitions not like the first but this consists of other people just remember this, its never the right time to fight but iff you must you must better to show that you are willing then talk your way out of it fighting is stupid but fun not right but yes wrong.
third its all about faith tho faith is what will get you through the first two and the first two will help strengthen your faith. i personaly put my faith in Jesus.
you do these things and make it through,death becomes neglectable even laughfable also why be affraid to die we dont really die this world is just a vapour.

Easy. Wreck the economy and any hope for a prosperous future, make it so the welfare class has a better standard of living than the working class, wreck the educational system and give what jobs there are to the unqualified, broadcast pure lies as if it were real news, bomb the crap out of innocent people all over the world so they all hate us, rig all of our elections and dash all hope of ever restoring our Constitutional Republic.
Death? Can't be any worse than the current state of affairs. Sign me up for the fucking revolution, just so long as it's not the Marxist 'occu-tard' version which they are promoting.
