Kal kal sab koi kahe,
kal na chinhai koyee.
Jeti man ki kalpana,
kal kahabai soyee.

Everybody repeats the fact of death, no one knows what is death
As is the imagination of one’s mind, so does he think of death.

Kabir says instead of talking about death experience death in life.

An Experience of Death in Life:
The whole of life is yours. Love it, live it to the fullest. That’s the only way to get ready for death.

Then you can live death too, to its fullest; and it is one of the most beautiful experiences. There is nothing comparable to the death experience in life, except deep meditation.

So those who know meditation, they know something of death – that’s the only way to know before dying.

Kabir is saying there is no more significant experience in life than death, Kabir is saying it, not because he have died and come back to tell you, but because he know that in meditation you move into the same space as death – because in meditation you are no more your physiology, no more your biology, no more your chemistry, no more your psychology. All those are left far away.

You come to your innermost center where there is only pure awareness. That pure awareness will be with you when you die because that cannot be taken away. All these other things which can be taken away, we take away with our own hands in meditation.

So meditation is an experience of death in life. The experience of meditation multiplied by millions is the experience of death.

And when you pass on you simply leave your form behind. You are absolutely intact, and for the first time out of the prison of physiology, biology, psychology.

All the walls are broken and you are free.

For the first time you can open your wings to the existential.
