There is only one God and his name is Death.

A thought:

There is only one thing that I can be certain about in this Universe - and that is - that I will Die.

Therefore, the only True thing I know is Death.

What if God is Death - you literally give your Life to Death.. Thus life is an offering made unto Death - the more you live the more experiences you have, the more you have to give your God.

Death comes to us All... no matter what creed.

Why not worship Death? As it is to worship Life. Worship Death by living your Life.

 

[sandandfoam]

Maybe death is the creation of humans?

Death

NOR dread nor hope attend
A dying animal;
A man awaits his end
Dreading and hoping all;
Many times he died,
Many times rose again.
A great man in his pride
Confronting murderous men
Casts derision upon
Supression of breath;
He knows death to the bone --
Man has created death.




William Butler Yeats

Vanakkam,

Worship/knowledge/undertanding/consideration of Death as a central force/deity is nothing new to some groups and philosophies in south America and Asia.
Would be interesting to see them more in details.

Aum Namah Shivaya

No doubt there have been...and may still be....
Cults that worship the Specter.

But are you not assuming a bit too much?

I would lean to the Creator of life.... first.

Death is no more than the consequence of chemistry.
This form is no more than chemistry with a spirit contained.

Yes the container will fail.
But then what?

Billions of copies of a form made for learning....to form unique spirit....
and no one survives the last breath?

Not a chance of life after death?

death is coming to us all why worship it? in my opinion just live your life no need to fear or worship death.

In the word's of Marylin Manson, death is our GOD killing us all.

 

[MysticSang'ha]

I think it's as important to equally honor and respect creation and the dissolution of all things.

 

[Sha'irullah]

All I can say to you is a hard proven fact. This is the same advice I gave to a friend many years ago and still proves true. Excuse me for my language here...

"Dying is easy, living is hard as ****"

Worshipping death is worshipping cowardice and weakness. Cowardice is not worth my surrendering to. I worship a god called god and he is called god because he is like god because god is all-powerful and not all-weak.

Sorry about my riddles.

Death is dependent on life for it's existence: if there were no life, there could be no death. Can something with a conditional existence be called God?

nuff said in the word's of Marylin Manson, death is our GOD killing us all. It is true in a way if you believe in god or a goddess.

I will die , ....you will die , ......the universe it self will die .

but in order to die one must be born , it is a cycle , an eternal cycle .

Therefore, the only True thing I know is Death.

in order to know death one must first know birth and life , ....

What if God is Death - you literally give your Life to Death.. Thus life is an offering made unto Death - the more you live the more experiences you have, the more you have to give your God.

god is the bringer of birth , the giver of life and the bringer of death ,..... god is the breath of life , as he breathes so the cycle is maintained .

Death comes to us All... no matter what creed.

death comes again and again , followed by birth untill we atain realisation of the ultimate truth , even then at the final death of the body , we are born again as a new enlightened eternal beings.


Why not worship Death? As it is to worship Life. Worship Death by living your Life.[/quote]

there is no death, death is as temporary a state as life , only the body dies the soul is eternal .

so to worship death is to worship a temporary state ,

why worship a temporary state ?

worship the eternal truth .

Don't forget life comes to us all with that same certainty.

Well I believe in a god but I fail to understand how he is killing us. Considering the fact that god would not be as concerned with this physical existence as opposed to the spiritual is quite logical. Humans are born into suffering and agony and the primary cause of it is humans, not god. God does not make humans suffer, humans make humans suffer.

 

[Breathe]

I don't believe in death.

And i call it as: One should learn how to die while living, and yes, of course its gives us a new life again, a new life which is away from deaths and births again and again.

"Death is the last enemy which one have to conquer" -said someone

Its easy to say that one should worship death, but its very difficult to worship death.

What is ment by worshipping something in real ?
Worshipping something in real means to be like that thing, Being, or becoming like that thing is called truely worshipping it.
Thus.. to worship death, one should be like death, or one should die before death.

How to die before death ?
Like all our realtions with this world gets end up at the time of death, Similarly one should try to break all the relations with this world before death.

Than we can say one is truely worshipping death, But its hard

No evidence so can't be certain.

RE Creator... can you have life without Death?
I'd argue Death is a precuros to Life, not the other way around.
You say death is basic chemistry, but its also biology, for without Death, there can be no Evolution.

 

[Octavia156]

Don't forget life comes to us all with that same certainty.

how do you figure....?

I would alter this to read:

There is only one thing that I can be certain about in this Universe - and that is - change will continue, infinitely and forever. Even so-called "death" is a form of change, albeit a rather final change from the physical perspective. Another thing I can be certain of is that there will always be an aspect of reality, that to me, remain unknown. It doesn't matter how much I ever understand, there will always be so much more I do not understand - of that, I am certain - and that is just speaking in purely physical terms.

Indeed, it is true that death comes to us all. The venerable Don Juan Matus said to the young Carlos, "Death is always stalking us."

"Yes", he said softly after a long pause, "One of us here has to change and fast. One of us here has to learn again that death is a hunter, and that it is always to one's left. One of us here has to ask death's advice and drop the cursed pettiness that belongs to men that live their lives as if death will never rap them."

(Later)

"So save your good wishes. There is no need to see your death either. It is sufficient that you feel its presence around you'."

So, though I would not advise worshiping death, per se, I think it wise to seek death's advice. The act of doing so is naturally humbling, when your own mortality is placed next to whatever problem you are currently facing.

Another wonderful saying attributed to Don Juan was something like, "Live each moment of life as if it was your last moment on earth." The idea being that you are concentrated in the moment, like a coiled spring, apprehending reality to the fullest, as the act may be your proverbial last stand.

Hope this is somewhat helpful... For the record, I have no desire to get into the validity of Carlos Castaneda's writing, as actual events, as his works stands well even as fiction.

 

[Onkara]

A being cannot be certain of death. No being can be certain of any future state.

how do you figure....?

Wouldn't be here.
