Zarathustra, the philosopher, believed that a man should focus on doing more good when alive and in bloom, for he believed that upon death, all his good deeds reveal themselves to him and make the transition of light. Similarly, if a man has committed crimes of the blood and the destruction of others, these deeds also come to life upon one’s deathbed, and they become demons. Zarathustra advised that we remain focused in our lives, to know the connections we have with others, to make sure that we do more good to assist others and ourselves in our human journey, to assist us to have a “good death” as we have a good life—as the classical philosophers spoke about.
