This is an extract from my free book that can be found at:

Years ago, I read an amazing book and I wanted to include part of it for you here. This extract describes very well, what we feel when confronted with the word 'Death'. It reads as follows:
(Extract from: Life After Life' by Raymond A Moody Jr MD. (With a foreword by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross MD). Published by Corgi Books)
(quote:)
“What is it like to die?"
That is a question which humanity has been asking itself ever since there have been humans. Over the past few years, I have had the opportunity to raise this question before a sizable number of audiences. These groups have ranged from classes in psychology, philosophy, and sociology through church organisations, television audiences, and civic clubs to professional societies of medicine. On the basis of this exposure, I can safely say that this topic excites the most powerful of feelings from people of many emotional types and walks of life.
Yet, despite all the interest it remains true that it is very difficult for most of us to talk about death. There are at least two reasons for this. One of them is primarily psychological and cultural: The subject of death is taboo. We feel, perhaps only subconsciously, that to be in contact with death in any way, even indirectly, somehow confronts us with the prospect of our own deaths, draws our own deaths closer and makes them more real and thinkable. For example, most medical students, myself included, have found that even the remote encounter with death which occurs upon one's first visit to the anatomical laboratories when entering medical school can evoke strong feelings of uneasiness. In my own case, the reason for this response now seems quite obvious. It has occurred to me in retrospect that it wasn't entirely concern for the person whose remains I saw there, although that feeling certainly figured too. What I was seeing on the table was a symbol of my own mortality. In some way, if only pre-consciously, the thought must have been on my mind, “That will happen to me, too."
Likewise, talking about death can be seen on the psychological level as another way of approaching it indirectly. No doubt, many people have the feeling that to talk about death at all is in effect to conjure it up mentally, to bring it closer in such a way that one has to face up to the inevitability of one's own eventual demise. So, to spare ourselves this psychological trauma, we decide just to try to avoid the topic as much as possible."

Of course, for a while, it struck me that some kind of hallucination had taken place. Like you, I too believed that such a thing could not be possible in this more ‘educated' period in our common advancement and that this kind of thinking belonged to another age. However, this book was written not by a fanciful person with an imagination to die for but by a medical mind – a medical – professional man. In other words, the person who wrote this book was far more educated than I at that time. Thus, it struck me that, whatever questions that I may have had concerning this subject then, I could safely bet that he had already thought of them – and then some.
You see, it is a common fallacy to believe that we are all educated the same and that we all possess the same intelligence. We, certainly do not. It is also a common fallacy to believe that whatever we are then everyone else must either be of the same mind or that everyone else is less than what we are and that we have no equal. Oh no! This is far from the truth for, not only do we all have equals yet, no matter how clever we may think we are yet…
We ALL Have Superiors.
We *ALL* Have Peers
We All Have People Who KNOW Better Than We Do
Thus, in bearing the above in mind, I believed that I was reading the words of at least one of my superiors on that day. And so, from that moment, it led me to want to know more – much more - than what this little book - and its follow-up - held.
I think it safe to say at this point that this book changed my life.
...However…
It has also changed countless other lives as well through me.
(…But I am jumping the gun here a little bit…)
It was from this very book that I then began my journey into the unknown.
To journey into the unknown, one must know a little about what is going on inside you when confronted with this word. We have to know because, it IS stepping into the unknown when confronted with it for, none of us KNOW a great deal about death do we?
Morbid?
No.
It is a necessary knowledge to accept first to then know how to overcome it thus making 'death' no more 'unknowable' to us. After that, well, we can move on to then to start thinking about what follows next. Now, this IS something that we ALL need to know isn't it? Why? Because we are ALL going to die at some point aren't we?
So, what comes next? Do you KNOW?
I DO.
...but I would like YOU to know too - and, believe me, nothing of what I bring you is at all fanciful.
IT IS REAL!
