This document discusses common regrets of the dying and philosophical views on death and the possibility of an afterlife. It summarizes 5 common regrets: 1) not living a life true to oneself, 2) working too hard, 3) not expressing one's feelings, 4) losing touch with friends, and 5) not allowing oneself to be happier. Philosophically, it explores different stances including existentialism's view of death as rendering life absurd, and the idea of "transcendence" through faith rather than rational understanding. Overall it reflects on the importance of love, relationships and living meaningfully rather than focusing on wealth or status.

May 3, Wernersville talk on Mental Illness Recovery and Resiliency, Word versionRichard Gardner
This is the Word version of a talk at Wernersville State Hospital on my experience with mental illness Recovery and Resiliency. I am bipolar 2 and diabetic 2. It is a call for change on how we view "mental illness" and how we move forward.
The ultimate aim of any philosophy or religion is supposed to be towards the welfare of the society showing a
genuine concern for humanity as a whole. However one has to accept the fact that unfortunately some of the
philosophies have nurtured themselves in such a way that they have emerged merely in an academic fashion
exhibiting the scholarship of the propounder and further utilizing the language in a verbose style. Similarly most
of the religions have also engrossed themselves in the rituals in an untiring manner which have taken foremost
position and toll, surpassing the real Spiritual aspect along with Philosophy. It is sad that so many centuries have
rolled down and still we are groping in darkness with same basic problems while as a contrast, Science with
empirical proofs has shown in all its branches notable progress. In fact all living beings strive for comfort and
further exert to crystallize the same into happines

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Lesson 9 - Resisting Temptation Along the Way.pptx
Class #2

4. 1. I wish I’d had the courage to live a life true to
myself, not the life others expected of me.
This was the most common regret of all. When people
realise that their life is almost over and look back
clearly on it, it is easy to see how many dreams have
gone unfulfilled. Most people have had not honoured
even a half of their dreams and had to die knowing that
it was due to choices they had made, or not made.
It is very important to try and honour at least some of
your dreams along the way. From the moment that you
lose your health, it is too late. Health brings a freedom
very few realise, until they no longer have it.
5. 2. I wish I didn’t work so hard.
This came from every male patient that I nursed. They
missed their children’s youth and their partner’s
companionship. Women also spoke of this regret. But as
most were from an older generation, many of the female
patients had not been breadwinners. All of the men I nursed
deeply regretted spending so much of their lives on the
treadmill of a work existence.
By simplifying your lifestyle and making conscious choices
along the way, it is possible to not need the income that you
think you do. And by creating more space in your life, you
become happier and more open to new opportunities, ones
more suited to your new lifestyle.
6. 3. I wish I’d had the courage to express my feelings.
Many people suppressed their feelings in order to keep peace
with others. As a result, they settled for a mediocre
existence and never became who they were truly capable of
becoming. Many developed illnesses relating to the
bitterness and resentment they carried as a result.
We cannot control the reactions of others. However,
although people may initially react when you change the
way you are by speaking honestly, in the end it raises the
relationship to a whole new and healthier level. Either that
or it releases the unhealthy relationship from your life.
Either way, you win.
7. 4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
Often they would not truly realize the full benefits of old friends until
their dying weeks and it was not always possible to track them down.
Many had become so caught up in their own lives that they had let
golden friendships slip by over the years. There were many deep regrets
about not giving friendships the time and effort that they deserved.
Everyone misses their friends when they are dying.
It is common for anyone in a busy lifestyle to let friendships slip. But
when you are faced with your approaching death, the physical details of
life fall away. People do want to get their financial affairs in order if
possible. But it is not money or status that holds the true importance
for them. They want to get things in order more for the benefit of those
they love. Usually though, they are too ill and weary to ever manage this
task. It is all comes down to love and relationships in the end. That is all
that remains in the final weeks, love and relationships.
8. 5. I wish that I had let myself be happier.
This is a surprisingly common one. Many did not realise
until the end that happiness is a choice. They had stayed
stuck in old patterns and habits. The so-called ‘comfort’ of
familiarity overflowed into their emotions, as well as their
physical lives. Fear of change had them pretending to others,
and to their selves, that they were content. When deep
within, they longed to laugh properly and have sillyness in
their life again.
When you are on your deathbed, what others think of you is
a long way from your mind. How wonderful to be able to let
go and smile again, long before you are dying.
9. In regards to eternal life, there is very little that is
scientifically observable from the dying process that is
helpful to prove its existence.
For both medicine and science, the question of eternal
life is very much an open one.
Science cannot disprove its existence, nor can religion
prove its existence.
But what about philosophy?
10. Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
(August 27, 1770 – November 14, 1831)
Most known for his connection to
“Idealism,” which is an attempt to
explain reality or human experience in
which ideas or spiritual, non-materialistic
elements are central.
11.
12.
13. Atheism – The rejection of a belief in the existence of
God. Feuerbach is arguably the most influential
atheists in history. All modern atheism draws from
Feuerbach.
Materialism (opposite idealism): The theory that
physical matter is the only fundamental reality. This
theory is incompatible with most religions,
Christianity among them. Only a material world – no
heaven or hell.
14. Sigmund Freud
(May 6, 1856 – September 23, 1939)
“Religious ideas are the fulfillments of
the oldest strongest, and most urgent
wishes of mankind.”
The Future of an Illusion (1927)
15. “As soon as a human being comes to
life, it is old enough to die.”
For Heidegger, dying is a mode of being which a person
accepts when they are born. Human existence is
dependent on death, because death is what gives
human life meaning.
Heidegger’s conclusion: boldly advance into death, take
possession of it, do not fear it.
16.
17. Like Heidegger, Sartre regards mortality as an essential
part of human existence. However, for Sartre, death is
a pure and simple fact that we will never really
understand, and in no way have any control over.
Sartre: Death deprives life of meaning, and makes life
absurd.
18. “So that is what hell is. I would never have believed it.
You remember: the fire and brimstone, the torture.
Ah! the farce. There is no need for torture. Hell is
other people.” Act I, Scene 5
19. Jaspers was a German psychiatrist and
philosopher who had a significant impact
on modern theology.
For Jaspers there are two options for people
who are presented with ongoing crisis in
life (death, disease, sickness, etc.):
1. Sink into despair or resignation, or…
2. Take a leap of faith toward what Jaspers calls
“Transcendence.”
20. Transcendence is a belief in spirituality that
“transcends” the physical world and is known from a
person’s intuition, rather than prescribed through
religious doctrine.
In other words, faith.
Science, medicine, and philosophy are not adequate
approaches to understanding eternal life. Faith, or
transcendence, is the way we begin to understand
eternity.
