Embracing Death

[Lonely]

I think the best way to be happy is to truly embrace death

I mean you have to live as if you’re already dead

It sounds paradoxical but ever since I’ve tried it my life has changed

Initially I only tried it in martial arts. To remove fear and hesitation. Why am I worried about being punched or losing when I’m already dead?

But I’ve implemented it in other aspects. Why worry about social humiliation or rejection? Accept you’re a dead, outcast and imagine your body being feasted on by crows and maggots and your name being forgotten. Horrifying. But it frees you.

It’s connected to Mushin, which is having an empty and clear mind. Detach yourself from it all. Your mind needs to be like still water.

It’s not my own philosophy, it’s a Samurai concept mostly so if you want to do some more research and reading there’s lots of material

You can only cope, if you're dying you would be shit scared

I’ve been in situations where I thought I was gonna die and I wasn’t scared?
