The concept of death is in more forms than that of finality physically. By that it means there is an abundance of what is considered to be “death” so to speak. One which can be thought of as starting a new cycle in life. In order to bring about a new concept or level of learning there is a sense of letting go. However, what you are doing is allowing this concept held by the ego to die off and allow for a new exchange of energy or essentially new life to enter as a phase.
Of course this is talking of more emotional death. Yet, the culmination of death at the end of a physical life is allowing everything to be let go and potentially using that energy to transform into a new life somewhere else. This is the possibility of how death can be seen as reincarnation. Though more as an exchange of energy towards equal give and take. However, most of life is taking this energy to learn from and transform in multiple stages. Not only growing from a child into an adult for more physical transformation. Then the adult into older, more emotional transformations throughout the decades. Essentially to the bare minimum of what this entails is preparing the mind and body for the eventuality of what is considered the final end in one particular life cycle.
In regards to how this applies to relationships throughout one’s life, it’s coming face to face with more ego behaviors reflected in other people’s reactions. The ending of one relationship is of multiple complex emotions or ideals which do not fit what we aspire to become ourselves. It is never a simple reason, unless there was no emotional connection to begin with. In which case it is the societal or ego reasoning of why a relationship does not work. Placing common ideals or attempting to fit certain rules which do not apply correctly within a relationship marks a death to what was previously learned. A death to learning which was given and a realization to let go of this for something more fitting.
Hence to why marriages as an example show a time of learning of another individual. However, because of how the concept of what was expected versus the reality of how this relationship chemistry actually turned out after an initial period of bliss. Due to not knowing what type of love was ideal to one person or the other when together, resulting in separation of connections. A death so to speak on emotional connections not living up to the expectations from growing up. Rather than learning from a new perspective which more closely relates to how one would prefer to love various individuals throughout life. How to connect to family which highlights strengths instead of insecurities. Or how friends uplift to support instead of push away from new ideas. Every relationship has a micro form of death that is tested time and time again.
