Through his many years of independent out-of-body research in the Subtle World, Oris has attempted to provide the most detailed answers to specific questions: how to die correctly? How to learn to accept one's death in time? And how does the transformation of subtle bodies occur during the post-mortem transition?

Additionally, regarding the question of "life after death," I recommend reading the author Helen Barker's "Letters from the Living Dead" (the book is a bestseller).

Death, as such, does not exist: only the bodies change, and the journey of the Spirit continues in Infinity.

Oris (Yalta 1992).

Every death is an opportunity for a spiritual leap, for a breakthrough of Consciousness on the path to even greater individualization in Divine Unity. Death is terrifyingly new only for those who have never sincerely and selflessly loved in their lives, who have not engaged in Meditation. It represents the highest form of Love and the highest form of meditative Energy, but it brings nothing new other than what you have already experienced during your life. .

Dying is a true art, more significant and necessary for a person than all others; it is an art that, once learned, the Soul never forgets and can use when exploring other realities of its existence. Mastering this art forever conquers Death, as such a person understands all its benevolent meaning and liberating role.

If you live from one moment to the next, then for you, death, in its ordinary understanding, cannot exist, because letting go of each last moment to immediately open up to the next means consciously dying from moment to moment. When Death arrives, you will not even notice its coming, for it will simply be one of the many moments of your infinite Existence. With physical Death, only the frequency of Consciousness vibrations changes, and the Physical World of light speeds instantly dissolves like a great Illusion.

When we calmly and equably, with full awareness of the chemical processes occurring within us, accept our Death, we cease to deny, judge others, get irritated for no reason, and no longer turn our entire Life into cheap marketplace trading.

The goal of avoiding Death and extending one's Life at all costs is set by those who are too attached to the external aspects of their Life, to illusory goods, feelings, and emotions associated with the presence of the personality in the physical body. The same goal is pursued by those who use hatha yoga to prolong their Life, but many of them are driven not so much by the fear of dying or excessive love for Life, but rather by an exploratory interest in this form of the Spirit's existence in the world of phenomena and the use of Life to reach greater limits of the physical personality's possibilities.

The dying person must be able not only to meet their Death calmly, with clear Consciousness and courage but also to have a sufficiently trained Mind that allows them to overcome all physical suffering and loss of strength in this difficult process.

Once you begin to feel free and at peace with Death, you will achieve a Life that can never be interrupted. To learn the art of dying, to be able to find what lies beyond Life and Death, one must learn to use both Life and Death.

Death is merely the final, graduation exam for the earthly human personality, but again, only in relation to those aspects that concern its EARTHLY Life.

To miss the opportunity for a conscious experience of one's own Death means to miss the chance to meet God, for only in Death do the other two possibilities of Enlightenment—Love and Meditation—automatically bloom.

With its arrival, Death will take away from you in the fleeting stream of habitual material Existence all your past attachments, all the desires that once overwhelmed you—and only after this, when all your contrived passions and senseless desires are annihilated by Death, will the Energy of Love become primordial pure, as it was before your coarse material manifestation in this World.

If you love someone very deeply, then this love also becomes a part of you. You do not own your love; it is not property; it is a quality of your existence. Thus, during and after Death, all your inner wealth will remain with you, while everything external that you have accumulated in the hustle and bustle of this world will be taken away.

Therefore, as long as inner peace is not achieved by you in Life, it cannot be achieved by you in Death either. All the beautiful and sublime things you can attain in your Life can be retained after Death, but not vice versa. If you have achieved deep Meditation in your Life, then your Death will be the deepest of your Meditations.

If you have attained high and pure Love, then your Death will manifest as the purest and most elevated Love for you. If throughout your Life you have reached God, then your Death will surpass all your most beautiful expectations—it will be Divine. Therefore, if you do not miss true Love in your Life, if you are also familiar with Meditation, it will not be difficult for you at a certain moment to become better acquainted with your own Death.

If you enter your Death easily and joyfully, this experience will remain with you forever and become the greatest pearl of your life experience. But the Soul comes to Earth for experience, as only it can give a person complete confidence in resolving various questions, including those concerning Death. Theoretical knowledge cannot overcome the fear of Death.

It will constantly follow you, lurking, stepping on your heels, until you learn what all the Enlightened possess—the art of dying—until you become absolutely confident that you can conquer Death whenever it comes. Only confidence saves from fear.

For this, one must possess the ability of absolute self-persuasion and impeccable imagination. This is what is meant by the concept of "Strength of Spirit."

Meditation gradually becomes a qualitative characteristic of your existence. It observes the inner side of your Life; it is your inner personality.

When you truly learn to meditate deeply, you will not only leave the surface of your illusory Life but will also leave behind yourself and everything that belongs to this Illusion: your Mind, your past, your memory... This is why deep Meditation is so similar to true, real Death.

Only by "dying" this voluntary Death, diving deep into yourself, to your true 'Self,' can you eventually come to that Reality which is eternal. It is quite possible that in Life you may never achieve this state, but the constant practice of this method will certainly help you at the moment of your true Death.

The body dies, and you continue to move forward. And if you persist in this technique, one day you will be able to leave your body and look at it from the outside, to gaze upon your own dead body lying before you. But as long as Life does not seem futile to you, you will never think of moving beyond it.

The death of the personality, your lower "self," may be accompanied by fear of liberation, of stepping into the unknown, into the void, fear of the thought that nothing can save you and stop your fall.

This fear is caused by the unrecognition of the Void of your true Nature—the boundless space from which we arise, the Space that is the Truth.

One Master of Meditation said: "If you have come to me not to die, it is better for you to go home—you are not ready for practice."

Deep Meditation is beautiful simply because it can freely and consciously bring you to the very moment of your future Death. In fact, meditation itself is "Death": a person initially, as the Mind ceases to work, slowly "dies" in the inner Space-Time of their Soul, and then unexpectedly "revives" for eternal Life outside Space-Time. In Meditation, we each time seem to "die" in Time to be reborn again and again in Eternity.

Such "Death" is deeper than the ordinary one because during physical Death, the identification with one's body still remains for some time, and the dis-identification is not so complete. During Death, the Soul loses only its physical body, while the entire astro-mental mechanism of its functioning remains the same and becomes either a source of post-mortem torments and sufferings or a source of unearthly bliss and enjoyment.

As you die, you will know that only the body ages, weakens, and disintegrates because it lives in Time and occupies a certain volume in Space. But your deepest inner core, your Spirit, which created your Soul and made you a personality, is not subject to Time; it is never born and never dies.

To achieve Nirvana, you must move your Consciousness inward, and to reach objects, you must move your Consciousness outward (which is what most people usually do, following sensual desires and bodily needs). The ultimate goal of a person is the death of everything that has only relative Existence: all material values must be devalued, all earthly Ideals destroyed, all idols overthrown.

This is the death of everything mortal in a person, the demise of all selfish inclinations, personal passions, and all that is base, which attracts a person to the Earth. This is why Death is Liberation, but this Death you must experience while remaining alive; you must feel the full depth of the illusion of this World, and then Death will be a true birth into a new Life—a Life that is true and unconditional.

All these vital needs compel you to constantly maintain a connection with the surrounding world, forgetting about spiritual nourishment. And as long as you do not have the same urgent needs that can only be satisfied by moving inward, you will never move inward into yourself. However, if there is a need, then moving inward is as easy and simple as going outside, that is, outward.

Any earthly desire requires an earthly body as "transport" and a means of achievement. This is the reason for all the possessions of the human physical body by so-called "lower spirits" of the Astral, who are actually still underdeveloped Souls of the deceased. They cannot satisfy their countless base desires without a sufficiently dense body, which is why they enter the bodies of the most weak-willed or those prone to various vices and sensual excesses, pushing aside their still poorly developed Consciousness.
