Garuda Purana: Garuda Purana has a special place among the 18 Mahapuranas of Hinduism. This holy book gives a detailed description of life, deeds, death and the journey of the soul after death. Garuda Purana tells that death does not come suddenly. Before this, there are many signals, which give time to the person and his family to prepare.
Major signs visible before death
1. Not seeing your shadow
According to Garuda Purana, if a person suddenly stops seeing his shadow, it is considered an inauspicious sign. Such a situation is a sign of diminishing vitality and indicates the approach of death.
2. Repeated appearance of ancestors in dreams
If deceased relatives repeatedly appear in dreams, talk to them or call them, then it should be considered a premonition of death. In Garuda Purana it is seen as a preparation for the soul’s journey to the next world.
3. Appearance of messengers
When death approaches, a person often feels as if someone has come to take him. Suddenly feeling fear, restlessness or negative energy at night can be a sign of the presence of Yamdoots. Many people feel uncomfortable during this time.
4. Recollection of old deeds
At the time of death a person starts remembering his good and bad deeds. Recollecting old events, mistakes and good deeds again and again is said to be an important sign of nearing the end in Garuda Purana.
5. Lightening of palm lines
A less known but noteworthy sign is that before death, the lines on the hand gradually become lighter or disappear for some time. It is linked to the weakness of the life line.
