Dear Group

Can you help me understand various words that are used for death?

In subjects for frequent recollection we have "marana dhammomi maranam anatiito." Is there any relation here to Mara, the destroyer?

In many Dhammapada verses I have seen maccuno (e.g pamaado maccuno padam)

In one Dhammapada verse, I saw this line which according to the translation contains a reference to death. "atittha~nn~eva kaamese, antako kurute vasam" but I don't know which word it is.

Any feedback on the various words for death used in the texts would be appreciated.

Thank you for your time.

Metta,

Phil
