Spiritual process of dying The dying process consists of various steps where people move from stage to another stage. Some people may not pass through all the stages of the standard dying process (Feldman, 2010). The most common stages through people move are: infancy, pre-school years, middle childhood, adolescence, early adulthood, middle adult hood, late adulthood, and death & dying. People have unique opinions regarding dying process and the factors which influence opinions of people are: age, sex, personality, social support available from family and friends etc. For example a person who is having social support from family and friends will have more interest towards life then others who lead a lonely life. Death is a discrete, datable event that terminates a person’s life and it is certain for everyone in this world (Sumner, 2011). There are few people who like to reach the final stage of dying process before the time comes. It is known as ‘suicide’ and it is biggest crime in this world. God will not excuse. Feldman (2010) also stated that there are fewer deaths before the birthdays, which means that people die before reaching the final stage in dying process. Some people that as auspicious day like Christmas will delay dying process for at least one week, from the other that people in positive mood can delay their dying process (Justice, 1997). There are some religions where people believe that dying on a particular day may be good because heavens gates are opened on that day. The age of the person have strong influence on their opinion towards death for example people who are above ninety years will reach the stage of self-actualization and lead their life in a peaceful way. People who grow older do not fear for death and welcome it after passing all the stages of dying process successfully.
