What do we do when faced with death. We ask that each of us, whether clergy or laity to see a dying person. With knowledge and experience and what they learned from Buddhism we do?

 

 What do we do when faced with death, "that question and this question very well. But the two questions we would like to present both the. First is what we do when faced with death, we should think or should we pray. Buddha says here, "Sabbe satta marissanti maranantam.hi jivitam." "All beings will die. " when faced with certain death our mind will be pulled, as is the fear that we're going away for the voyage never permanently return home anymore. Of course at that time to be messing up the mood and fear. That is why we are here this can be based on the classics, the teachings of the Buddha and in our daily lives to become skillful practice often access medical conditions. For example, we regularly practice mindfulness, often dwelling with mindfulness. neighboring We do not know death should not be like that time, but let us experience times of seriously ill and is that. We have also encountered cases in hospital and to undergo major surgery. At times it can be said that a few thoughts about death and fear flashed. We have to learn from experience is that the average life date, we have to create a consistent failure to object to mature, to enter the mind. Because if we do not enter the mind is not mature themed bar failure, the terminally ill, while we, the consistent failure does not enter the mind inaccurate, deathbed very dangerous. , what about when we dying, we do. Depending on each person's ability and comfort where we do it. Meaning: With a heavy-faith, in the dying moments, people will think about the blessings and will pray blessings. -With a diligent meditation, deathbed most important thing the heat can still be mindful. -With people tend intellectual heavy, then there will be a topic of thinking so that they can face death without fear anxiety. Because the body is known as the old car ... etc. So the first thing we want to say here is that we ourselves do when we face death. This will, depending on the orientation, the ability to practice, depending on the maturity of each person that applies. Which is also good at all. now we mention the second issue is what we do for a person adjacent to the death. This means that when we come to visit a gravely ill person or a system coming out to die. As was the case when the monks were invited to help a sick person, a Buddhist, for example. We also have been doing this work, the Buddhists who are old or sick people violent, invited us to. We help them by face and by her ability to experience. dying for, if a person is unconscious or they are not awake enough to be able to hear and know what we present to explain . For this they need a second sound, the sound of the classic mean that the date they have heard monks chanting. At that time, hoping that the sound can help patients stick to the center of the silent scenes, and they remain in a state of tranquility deathbed. But of this we rarely use, because usually when a person dying in a family suffering around them crying narrative, such chanting is not about practicality. So in the meantime, we usually recite a short passage, then doco comforting explanation for survivors. regard to the disease, even though they faced death but is conscious, able hear, understand. At that time we will absolutely not chanting without their request. At that time we will speak on behalf of them monks. because that classics we also know a few cases where the Buddha or the venerable position as venerable relics-Waving or Illustration A-Nan-Da several visits to the sick. He has a few introductory questions to them. Ask about how the disease status and sympathetic to them. If they know there is a Buddhist belief in the Three Jewels, by merit, almsgiving, precepts, religious and Ps which tends to faith or diligence or location tue.Chung I will present a short talk about the meaning that they have merit, said the temporary nature of the physical body or a realm will happily wait calm the mind and mindfulness before dying minutes. Remind them and their advice should dwell, because they need to know that their physical body now as an old car, used can not spend anymore or they need to be very calm and Resident Evil in the same way. Having a few cases we found to be effective, that is a sick ngguoi like a nun or a monk being terminally ill, at that time in the feeling pain, they grimace, they groan, but when prompted, suggested such a right according to their mood, because trust or respect for the French, they keep silence and calm in the moment moment they leave the light state of mind that we can recognize through their facial expressions. We think in particular if a certain practice or a certain procedure for prayers for the dying patient can not say specifically that we must be flexible, depending on the object, and depending on the finish scene at that time, I come early or late and in the circumstances of this is conscious or unconscious we can help them. It's a couple of things in experience and understanding of myself .
