Sudden Death and Doomsday

Death is the Doomsday for the individual. Everything will have deserted him. Everyone must reflect upon this reality. Everyone must prepare for this day more than anything else.

Two things will dawn on man all of a sudden—death and Doomsday. This is the gravest problem all men and women are faced with. These are the events which man must give the most thought to and about which man must be concerned more than anything.

It is customary for anyone coming from outside to first make an appointment, or to knock at the door to seek permission to enter. But death or Doomsday is not in need of any permission. The Angel of Death is an angel who can come to anyone at any time without seeking prior permission in order to take man’s soul to a world from where it is not possible to return.

Death, in other words, means going to a world after abandoning everything, going to a world which is void of everything. One who has lived amidst his own people all of a sudden reaches a world where there is no living being around him.

Death is the Doomsday of the individual, when finally, all those circumstances prevailing in this world will come to an end. The whole present world, all of a sudden will be reduced to nothingness. All of a sudden all men and women will find themselves in such a situation where neither is there anything behind them nor in front of them. Man’s existence will be perpetuated but everything else he had will be absent, everything will have been abandoned. Everything will have deserted him. Every man and woman must reflect upon this reality more than anything else; every man and woman must prepare for this day more than anything else.
