is not to be feared. As long as we are alive, we are not dead. And when we are dead, we won't be continuing our experience -- the body and soul separate. All human action emanates from avoidance of pain or pursuit of pleasure... after we're gone, neither will be necessary.
It wasn't painful before birth, so why will it be painful after death?
There is nothing bad about not existing.
Maybe that's why my grandpa is fearless. Maybe that's why he says heaven is on earth. With nothing to dread after.
