Talking about and reflecting on death can feel morbid, scary, dreadful even. Today we sit with Matt Segall, Professor of Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness to explore the concept of death from the lens of philosophy, and do our best to bring the conversation to a practical place:
- Why is talking about death powerful? What does it unlock for us?
- What does it mean to “cross the threshold” of death while we live, and to “die before dying”?
- How does contemplating the death of our ego-centric sense of self enable us to better connect with others?
- How do we even go about participating in this contemplation? How do we tackle our fear? How do we challenge or suspend our assumptions about the nature of life and death?
- What does it give us access to that they wouldn’t otherwise?
What we find nestled within a contemplation of our death - both literal and figurative - is a powerful connection to living more vibrant, connected, and meaningful lives.
