Different Stages of life

one can not talk about death without talking about birth.since  Birth or neonate to the Old there are stages 'definite' inevitable it is only the looks or the nature- physical, biological or psychological that become different or abnormal or normal to each other when compared to the lives around us. one one has to go passing 'different stages of life' inevitable though the experiences face or ways of facing each and every stage is different to each and every human.

we know that 'different scholars give different definitions or naming depending on the subjects or the facets of life they are preferred to learn or study. 

scholars like Jean Piaget can see one's life from child to old differently to Rousseau or to Sigmund or to Emile Durkheim this is how the scholar Professor Carlo Fonseka analyses the death i have heard that he was analyzing the term death this way 'death is the death of the brain' maranaya kiyanne mole maranaya' 

i am little afraid of my translation don't know whether Sir might agree to it or not 

Death is assured when the brain goes pause for forever' 

sociologist may look at birth to death in a different way than to a scientist, and a scientist may look at different stages of a human being differently to a Psychologist or social psychologist. there are plenty or various ways that one can look at a human life birth to death or even from fetus to final stage of life until one reach the very last pillar of life 'death'

i thought of looking at human life comparing a life of a Jack leaf. i am not saying that this a accurate way to look at or analyze life you may find various other ways that one can look at or analyze life.  

have a look at following range of pictures i am not going to say or analyze the pictures posted here that much i like to note a few words just to fill the gaps in between keeping some space for you to just follow the different growing stages and analyze them in a more advanced or intelligent way or in a very mature way than mine.
since birth to death or lets say old one can just compare a human life thinking or just trying to observing clearly the following.

'this is how life of a human looks like' in his/her different levels or stages of life this we can name or called as 'reality' and who ever define or analyze what ever way 'the different stages of ones life 'birth and death that is inevitable and this truth can not be changed for no reason also all analysis definitions and theories exists in this world become nothing or second to this truth and all such things belong to the in between analysis or categories of birth to death again i like to note 'inevitable.




birth - neonate 



little older now 



glow of life 

very attractive and energetic 

like to associate especially with same gender and peer groups and Yes choices become so special at this stage of life i think i am not wrong here. 


mature compared to the stage of glow of life 



one can manage his/her own life at this stage i like to believe and the level of physiological dependency is not that bothering to the people around or to the youngsters or to the life goes very smooth and comfortably groups.  


 is life similar to a neonate at this stage ?


is life become more sympathetic at this stage ?



it is good to stop a little here and go a little back ward and think the 'attraction that you get from the ones you met,associated is it the same now? think of the different stages of life that you came passing?  what can you say and i have  not that complex question to ask you

is this the stage of 'elderly care become more expensive or difficult afford?



how many steps that one has to use until reach inevitable but no one knows when or how or why it arrives 'which way is the right way is it upward or downward 'difficult to say' am i right ?



sometimes we forget some things related to birth - death when i was a kid i thought death arrives only at our older age to learn such things one has to learn many things from the living one thing that one should forget is that there is no particular  stage that death arrives. arriving moment no one knows and never can say or name a particular stage that it arrives.

following i have noted in this page in one or two essays i wrote taken from a book still i like to note it again 



" the born the becoming, the produced.
The made, the compounded , the unstable ,
subject to decay and death,
a nest of diseases, fragile,
its source a support of feeding,
have done with delight in such.

" deliverance, from this is tranquility,
beyond logic , permanent,
The not born and not produced
A griefless, stainless position,
Annihilation of the conditions of misery
cessation of activities, Bliss."

( Iti Vuttaka 43)

  1. Dear, Sandika

    The human body consists of some 60 trillion individual cells, and life is the vital force that harmonizes the infinitely complex functioning of this mind-boggling number of individual cells. Each moment, untold numbers of cells are dying and being replaced by the birth of new cells. At this level, daily we experience the cycles of birth and death.

    take care
