The Buddha’s decree was simply this, “Death does not exist.” He proclaimed the Deathless, which is not a different life: it is this life lived from a different perspective. He suggests awakening to death as an advisor and allowing it to reveal our miscalculations, misplaced identity, and misunderstood truths. We are asked to use death as its own foundation referencing everything back through it. It holds the suffering and contains the liberation.
