Buddhist and Stoic Perspectives on Death

Your Productive Life is Only as Long as You Retain Your Mental Faculties > Comparison > Meditation Strengthens Focus
Stoicism observes you are only productive for as long as you maintain your mental faculties. Buddhism observes that you must train your mental faculties before they deteriorate before death so that you may remain cognitively vigilant.

 Death is Not Definite

Death is Not Assured > Emphasis > Death is Not a Law of Biology
Death is not a law of biology, and through increasing knowledge of science, we may extend our lives indefinitely.
