ABSTRACT:

Death has always troubled humanity. An analysis of this theme, no matter how many variants it covers, is invariably incomplete. This article strives to provide several different perspectives on death, but always focusing them under a Projectiological and Conscientiological viewpoint. It proposes the creation of an intraconsciential space to reflect on questions such as: How, by better knowing our nature, can we demystify this natural, human, and universal biological process? How can we stop being afraid of death and understand that death is nothing else than a moment of consciential renewal? How can we modify our attitudes towards death, bringing assistantial advances to the human groups that we are part of?

This article is based on a bibliographical investigation of areas such as psychology, sociology, projectiology, and conscientiology. As a foundation, it uses both the consciential paradigm and the author's participative research. We verify that death, under the projectiological and conscientiological perspective, is less dramatic, negative or traumatic than in the other perspectives studied here. Death is a transition of one consciential state to another. We all "train for dying" whenever we have lucid OBEs. The preparation for death begins with life. Knowing how to die is knowing how to live.
