There is no death because there is nothing to die. But we don't accept this because we want this identity to live to be real. Accepting that there is nothing to die is acknowledging that the "we" we take as us is not and the reality of that, we perceive as death.



The above face, is the face of the faceless, the above message are the thoughts of the thoughtless, seen as imaged images of the imageless.
The body is the vehicle of expressional knowledge, and is the medium by which all discourse can become known to thyself albeit illusory as the story dictates a knowedge that can only point to the illusory nature of reality.

Your above is stupid, irresponsible and reckless.

If humanity were to teach and brainwash all of the next generation on your point, i.e.
"There is no death because there is nothing to die. "
then a large number of them will not worry about their life being terminated from fatal accidents, committing suicides and other means of not-living.
If the termination of life due to recklessness reach a critical mass level, the human species could like go extinct.

Death is a fact, a certainty and a possibility at any time.
Thus all humans must be mindful to strive to survive as optimal as possible till the inevitable.
In this case, there will be no reckless advice like your leading people to die due to indifference on death.

Your claim, 'there is no death' is a lie and falsehood.

Mortality is an inevitable fact and the path for each individual is to face this reality with equanimity instead of living with the lie and self deception there is no death and nothing to die.

Life and death are the same thing, they just differ in appearance that's all. Now you see me, now you don't.

Nothing that lives ever died, and nothing that died ever lived.

This is good news and a blessed relief to some, but to others it's an absolute tragedy.

When it is realised that the seer is inseparable from the seen, no dichotomy is present. And that all beings are essentially an unbroken unity and manifestations from the same ground.

In the dream of separation there is (apparently) conceptual distinctional knowledge of birth and death. Prior to knowledge there is no birth or death, there is only infinity for eternity. Or put another way, the ever flowing changeless changing from one appearance to another.
The void is not empty but full of awareness, in which the whole world arises and falls.
