Dying With Dignity

[Guest guest]

L.E: Dying with dignity is something those who are going to keep on living

say about those who are about to stop living. Dignity is part of the ego's

descriptions of evaluation and judgement as it tries to measure who and what is

valuable and worthwhile to it.

There are those who die gently in their sleep with no histronics or great and

obvious suffering, and these we can say, died with dignity. And there are

many who do not as they are torn open or apart by bombs, firing squads, or in

the torture dungeons run by the American CIA and police throughout the world.

And there is death by cancer and other diseases, wrenched, gooey and full of

screaming pain. We, the ego, can evaluate and judge which deaths have dignity,

calm, quiet peacefulness and those that don't. Some deaths are quiet and

peaceful and others are not. It is not difficult to say which had dignity and

which did not.
