The "Tibetan Book of Death" provides the most comprehensive and step-by-step description of the dying process of the body and mind. This book describes the signs of death in the final stages of death. The process of dying is called external dissolution, and when this process is set in the dissolution phase, death is nearby. This ancient description is used as a guide to death in today's hospice work, and it tells us that a person is close to death.
The text reveals how the elements of our body dissolve and how our senses are felt. According to Buddhism and Eastern religion, our body consists of five elements: earth, water, fire, air and space. With the digestion of each element, there is a sensory experience: "The five inner elements of the body, blood, body heat, space and consciousness depend on the five external elements of the earth, water, fire, wind and sky at the time of death, Five intrinsic elements are gradually integrated into each other."
The final stages of death and dissolution occur in the following order:
"The element of the earth, corresponding to the flesh of the body, dissolves in the water. At this time the body becomes very heavy, we feel as if we can't move. Fire or heat. At this point we feel very dry because the water evaporates in the body... Element, corresponding to body heat, dissolved in air or breathing. Wind or air element, corresponding to space, dissolves into consciousness. At this time, we can no longer inhale or exhale; we can no longer breathe."
As the first earth melts into the water, experience diminishes as the body melts. Vision is declining and everything looks like a mirage. Then the water melts into a fire, and the body's liquid dries and feels numb. With this numbness, the acuity of hearing disappears, people can no longer hear it, and there is a feeling of being surrounded by smoke.
Then the fire is integrated into the wind. The inhalation is weakened and the sense of smell disappears. A person feels cold and there is a spark around. Then the wind merges into space and the breathing stops. This is where the overall consciousness disappears and the end of the entire physical and mental experience.
The connection between the mind and the disintegration of the elements is profound and profound, because the elements are created from the mind. In Soyalg Rinpoche's book "Tibet's Life and Death", Karur Rinpoche reveals "the five basic qualities of physical development, which are produced from the mind." [iv] This means that when the body dissolves into the mind, this is how we feel this dissolution, so this is the biggest part of death - the inner dissolve.
This internal disintegration is the psychological experience of the final stage of death. The inner disintegration of the mind is from rude to a few, in which case the chaotic brain is dissolved in the hearts of a few people of its own nature. This disintegration is a powerful transformation of consciousness that occurs when the consciousness that recognizes the elements that make up the body is transformed into an understanding of the true nature of the soul.
This transformation also includes a powerful experience of leaving the body. The experience of leaving our body is an unusual experience. In the experience of dying, Raymond Moody observed that many people described it as being confused. For me, this is a very powerful feeling, as if I was free to fall when my body dissolved in an internal explosion. Leaving the body and welcoming the light is a strong emotional feeling, and the dying experience cannot find the words to describe.
This is when we discover that we have left our bodies. When the body is alive, it is the support of our consciousness, but when we die, the body can no longer support our consciousness. Therefore, leaving the body is described as a degenerate experience, because our consciousness no longer has any sense of weight.
When our consciousness leaves the body, the brain is disintegrated by the elements, and we find ourselves in the hearts of a few people of our true nature. We are characterized by our senses through the reality of sensory perception, which are made up of the elements that make up our body. The reason we look at reality in this physical dimension is that our senses depend on the elements that make them. When the elements dissolve, the senses and consciousness associated with the senses will also disappear, and our thoughts will awaken to new realities.
This new reality begins at the moment when the two elements meet - the mind of the brain and a few people. Carelessness is the basis of chaos because it is related to our senses and our relative world. But the mind of a few people is the foundation of liberation, because the true essence of reality comes from experiencing it.
We can also call the carelessness of the conceptual mind, which gives birth to an enlightened mind; "When all these state of mind ceases, what remains is the unreconstructed nature of the mind... This is the naked consciousness itself. "
The Buddhist tradition calls this awakening a naked understanding of the mother and child. The mother is the clear light of naked consciousness [emptiness]. "This is the fundamental essence of everything. This is the basis of our entire experience, and it shows its full glory at the moment of death."
When some people ask: What is heaven like? They want to find a physical place similar to what we know in this dimension. However, what we can learn from the Buddhist tradition and the almost death experience is that "Paradise" is a non-physical dimension, and consciousness is the core of experience. "Tibetan Death Book" tells us that the basics of everything The essence is actually a naked consciousness, the so-called clear light of Buddhism, and the so-called "brightness" of death experience.
