Is death a boon to humans?

Death is indeed very great because it is something fearful, but before it is the culmination of life's journey, the doorway to something beyond what our eyes and senses can grasp.  We spend our whole life building relationships, wealth, reputations, and attachments.  Death dissolves all of them in a single moment.  No power, position, or possession can stop it. It humbles the ego, liberates us from worldly limitations, pushes us to seek higher truth, equalises all beings, and opens the doorway to eternity. It teaches us detachment  and humility. When we realise that everything here is perishable, our hearts naturally seek what is eternal...God, Truth, or the Self. Biologically, death gives way to renewal.  Old generations pass, new ones come. Without death, there would be no growth, no evolution, no space for fresh life. So, it is not a  punishment but a part of nature's law as essential as birth.  LORD Sri Krishna in Bhagath Githa Chapteer-2 Verse ...

Constant remembrance of God, and how to achieve it?

Constant remembrance(Smarana, dhyana, or abhyasa of God) is not 'thinking of God every second', which is impossible for the restless mind, but cultivating a deep, natural undercurrent of awareness of God's presence in the heart, which flows alongside all duties.  It is not just when you sit in meditation, but also while living, working, and interacting with others.  This is not merely the mechanical repetition of God's name, but an inner state of feeling connected to Him. Smarana  is often described as an unbroken stream of thought directed towards the Divine, leading to a constant state of awareness.

Offering Heart(Hrudaya Kamalam) to God.

  Man worships God, who gave him human birth in many ways. During the worship, he offers leaves, flowers, fruits or water to the extent of his ability.  It may be that offering this way is a sign of gratitude, but is a human being really capable of offering to God? When we offer anything to God, the materials in that offering are all the creation of God. If we consider this perspective, we can say that it is not so perfect, because there is nothing of our own in that material offering. God is the one who created the entire Universe. But if the devotee does not offer something to God, his mind will not be satisfied. Once upon a time, a Yogi prepared to worship God. Then wisdom dawned within him. Performing each and every act of worship, he addressed the Lord thus... "O God Almighty, You are the Universe itself. So how can you be invoked? Where should you place your seat when you are the support of all creation? Why do you need water to wash your feet, since you are ever pure?...
