One of the great ironies of "Buddhism" as it is popularly engaged is that even though it brings quite a lot of attention to death, it has also fostered a powerful fear of death in many of it's practitioners and has created a arbitrary and delusional perceived division between life and death...casting them as dualistic opposites instead of harmonious aspects of a whole.
