Beside click bait title, which isn't Alan Watts's fault, I found this video very comforting, regarding fear of death:

I vision death as total unrestricted freedom of aww and wonder. You have everything, no wants or desires everything is complete.

I see death as shedding our mortal soul to rid the bad to become a immortal soul.. We don't die we just lose memory
IDK years and years of programing doesn't help. Religion in my opinion is the greatest perversion of truth and misunderstanding created by human design for reasons I cannot explain. The crazy thing about religion and of the crap promotes as truth is how easily and trusting believers fall into it. Religion is only one example of humanities desire to make sense of it all. I guess the longing to understand overrides logic and reasoning. I get it, most people or so I'm told are not analytic in the way they process information, this may be problematic for those who just don't get it. Everyone is in a different place not only in their journey but also in what they value. I've always been introspective and for me to think differently would be out of character.
A natural mistake many people including myself is assuming everyone sees the world as I do because we don't have access to other peoples lives or identities other than through our own filters of understanding. Diversity makes the world go around.

People can only work with the limited resources available to them.

the french have a slang term for an orgasm, “le petit mort”. it means “the little death” and is meant to refer to the sensations of an orgasm. the brief moment of pleasure, nearly your entire attention focused solely on the euphoric feelings of climax. how your body feels weightless, pleasurable, and unconscious. and while it’s a simple slang phrase, it’s always a little comforting to me. comparing death to something as pleasurable as an orgasm. after all they’re 2 of the most base things of human nature. cause i do believe that death will be the most comfortable and warming thing that our human body will ever experience. our energy returning to the universe, no longer limited by our flesh.
