47. Frontline: Dreams Of Tibet: Understanding Tibetan Buddhism: Death And Dying
    Even the cells of our bodies are constantly being born and dying. Allof us are inexorably moving toward physical death in every moment.  
    http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/tibet/understand/dying.html
    
    Extractions: According to traditional stories of the life of the Buddha, he first decided to leave his home and seek enlightenment after encountering the "four sights"-(I) a sick person, (2) an old person, (3) a corpse, and (4) a world renouncer. The first three epitomize the sufferings to which ordinary beings are subjects and the last indicates that one can transcend them through meditation and religious practice. The greatest problem of all is death, the final cessation of all our hopes and dreams, our successes and failures, our loves, hates, worries, and plans. From its inception, Buddhism has stressed the importance of death, since awareness of death is what prompted the Buddha to perceive the ultimate futility of worldly concerns and pleasures. Realizing that death is inevitable for a person who is caught up in worldly pleasures and attitudes, he resolved to renounce the world and devote himself to finding a solution to this most basic of existential dilemmas. After years of diligent and difficult practice he became enlightened, and through this he transcended death. His life provides his followers with a model to emulate, and even today Buddhist teachers strongly advise their students to meditate on death and impermanence, since they are powerful counteragents to short-sighted concern with the present life and one's own transitory happiness. Buddhist teachers also point out that according to tradition Buddha began his teaching career discussing death and impermanence in his first sermon on the four noble truths, and he also ended his career with teachings on death and impermanence, which indicates how important they are in Buddhist teaching and practice.

48. The Hero Bound And Pierced:
    Structuralist interpretation of the English ballad The death of Robin Hood , with comparisons to nine similar stories told in Britain over the centuries.  
    http://hesternic.tripod.com/herobound.htm
    
    Extractions: The Dying Hero: A Recurring Mythic Pattern in British Legend A Structuralist Interpretation by Hester NicEilidh On the surface, the English ballad The Death of Robin Hood , which probably dates in some form to the early 15th century, does not appear to make sense within the larger Robin Hood tradition. It seems perversely inappropriate that the Greenwood hero should die not battling the Sheriff's men in the forest, but rather by being bled to death in a nunnery by a treacherous relative. Many of the elements of the ballad are obscure. For instance, who is the old woman "banning" Robin by the river? What is her role? What is the basis of the enmity between Robin and the nun's lover, Roger? Why does Robin die weak and bedridden? The answers to these questions cannot be found solely within the Robin Hood legend itself. While not easily interpreted on its own, the meaning of the ballad of Robin Hood's death does become clearer when we see it as part of a wider cycle of myths that informed the British imagination of the late Middle Ages and Early Modern period. Chief among these stories must be the Christian mythos, which includes Biblical scripture, hagiography, hymns, folksongs, and apocryphal legend. The older pre-Christian mythology of the British isles, as preserved in the Irish myth cycles, can also provide an enlightening point of comparison, as does the Classical mythology that became well known during the Renaissance. For interpretive purposes, the ballad of Robin Hood's death can be compared to (at least) nine other mythic stories that appear in Britain at various times over the centuries. The most prominent and most influential of these is the Crucifixion of Christ, the central religious tale of the Christian faith. It is compelling that Robin Hood is stabbed in the side by Red Roger, just as Christ was stabbed in the side by the Roman soldier's spear during the crucifixion. In neither case is the wound in the side the direct cause of death. Robin was already bleeding to death due to the prioress's ministrations, while Christ was already dead from crucifixion.

    Extractions: spiritual lessons of everyday existence. Is this really how I want to live my life? Each one of us at some point asks that question. The tragedy is not that life is short, but that we often see only in hindsight what really matters. In this life-changing book, and David Kessler guide us through the lessons we need to learn so that we can live life to its fullest in every moment. Many years of working with the dying have shown them that certain lessons come up over and over again. Some of these lessons are enormously difficult to master but even the attempt to understand them can be deeply rewarding. Here, in fourteen accessible chapters, from The Lesson of Love to The Lesson of Happiness, the authors reveal the truth about our fears, our hopes, our relationships, and above all, about the grandness of who we really are. The book features lessons on living, including advice on living life fully after loss from Christopher Landon (screenwriter and Michael Landon's son) and from Berry Berenson Perkins, (photographer and wife of Anthony Perkins)

    http://crossingthecreek.com/finaljourney/
    
    Extractions: M y mother died of cancer. She had been told of the cancer about 7 months before her death. During that time we called in hospice and I read every book or pamphlet that I was given to prepare myself for what lay ahead. I believed if one tried hard enough any death could be peaceful. Hospice could control pain and our job as a family was to meet her needs. But I wasn't prepared. There was so much that no one ever told me. And because there were components of her death that were not peaceful I was left feeling as if I could have done better. When my mother's death was at hand, things happened not described in any of the materials I had been given to read. The experience was not peaceful. She didn't see people who had already died or talk of feeling ready. We did not have that one last wonderful talk. Instead she was agitated, restless, anxious, and spoke of nightmares. One evening I located a support group on the internet for people who were going to lose or had lost a loved one. Groping to make sense of my mother's suffering I told the group of my mother's death. They shared their experiences with me. I can't tell you why or when my healing began but only that hearing others' stories did this for me.
