The Epicurian understanding of death is simple just as much as it is precise and soothing: in a way, it's either you or death. Both can't happen and take place at the same time. The latter, as an event, is unkownable in itself. So when death is there, you're not there anymore. And insofar you're still there, death is nowhere to be fond.

Fear of death as a punctual event in time is a nonsense.
