According to the teachings in Chapter 37, the conventional understanding of death is redefined. It explains that what we call death is merely the manifest form returning to the unmanifest. The true obstacles, or "nooses of death," are identified as "Adharma (unrighteousness), ignorance, anger, and hatred." The text suggests that one who completely crosses these enters the true heavenly world. As Chapter 37 describes, this is not a physical place but a state of being—the realization of the Cosmic Self-form, which is free from mental grief, disease, worry, and the fear of death itself. In this divine state, the soul moves about completely fearless, having overcome the internal enemies that bind it to suffering.
The Satcharitra mentions overcoming the fear of death. What does it identify as the true 'nooses of death' and what is the 'heavenly state' one can attain?
