Q. Is there any mantra or meditation to overcome the fear of death of others? I've had difficulty all of my life in 'dealing' with death of my loved ones. I need to overcome this-it's tearing me apart. Thank you for your time. Asked by sami p - Thu Dec 24 07:46:51 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. I understand how you are feeling because I had felt it for most part of my life. The best is perhaps to talk to a professional to sort the fear out. We need to realise that like living, death is also a part of life. Saying prayers, having faith in higher power, doing good and always be the best you can be with your loved ones- so that there is no regrets. Now, I live my life understanding that life is fragile but I've learned to let that go and always keep my life's priorities in check- that I am not putting other things above my loved ones.
