Never Forget 'Death'
|
Alexander the Great is known as the
most powerful military leader and conqueror of the ancient world.
Before he turned 30 years old he conquered an empire stretching over
3,000 miles from Greece to India. He was born in 356 BC in Macedonia,
known today as northern Greece.
On his sickbed and during his last
hour alive, Alexander the Great told his generals "After my death, when
you put my body in the casket, let my arms hang over the edges with my
palms wide open, so the public can see my empty hands while I am
leaving the world." After Alexander the Great died, many dignitaries
came to view the royal funeral and were very surprised to see his arms
hanging over the edge of the casket with his palms wide open. They asked questions about this unique scene. A
wise man told them "O' People, Alexander the Great is telling us that
when he ruled the world, great treasures of gold, silver and wealth
came to be under his possession. Yet, indeed he is leaving the world
empty handed."
In conclusion, a surprisingly effective remedy for stress is to "remember death". Lord Budha has said, "Remember frequently the one who will
destroy all your pleasures - death! For there is no one who remembers
death when in straitened circumstances, but his situation will become
easier..."
