Is there truth in the philosophy of physical immortality regarding belief and its effects on aging and death?

Embrace death as a natural part of life; live so fully that it becomes your friend, not your enemy.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source definition
Core Insight:
According to Osho, physical immortality is sheer nonsense: whatever is born must die. Belief cannot cancel biology; at best, science may prolong life, never abolish death. Chasing immortalist promises springs from fear and gullibility. Instead, see death as a natural rest and returning of elements. Live so fully that death becomes a friend, not an enemy.
No belief can stop your body from aging and dying; treat death like sleep and focus on living well now.
Why this matters practically
- Avoids wasting time and money on false promises of immortality.
- Reduces fear by reframing death as a natural, restful process.
- Encourages wholehearted living and sensible care for health.
