According to Hindu mythology ,there is 47 day journey to the soul after death.  As per Garuda Puran , the person who is going to die can't speak , even if he wants to . In his last moments of life , Drivyadrishti generates within him and is able to understand the entire world. All his senses get destroyed and he is unable to move and goes stiff. If the person has done good and kind work throughout his life during death two angels of god come who take the soul to the god. But if the person has done lot of sins throughout his life, the Yamduts (god of death) who look very terrifying come and take the soul to the Yamraj. Also as soon as the death occurs the dead body's both the toes should be tied together as it becomes a restriction for the soul to enter the body again  According to this mythology the soul sees all the rituals of it which are performed post death. The soul stays in the family with family members, invisible to everyone for the next 13 days                                                                                                                                                                                                 SOME THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT A DEATH:-                                                   1 Death is not a painful experience.                                                                     2 when you die, you will see the spirits of deceased people of your close relatives and ancestors.                                                                                  3 The soul has to travel for an year for its new journey and the ancestors guide them.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 6 STRANGE THINGS ABOUT DEATH YOU PROBABLY DIDNT KNOW :-          1 A human head remains conscious for around 20 seconds after being decapitated .                                                                                                         2 A body decomposes four times faster in water than on land.                  3 Within three days of death , the enzymes from your digestive system begin to digest your body.                                                                             4 When a person dies, sense of hearing is last to go.                                     5  Death bodies swell up like balloons after four days , due to the release of gases and liquids.                                                                                    6  When we are alive, our brain is constantly sending signals to tell different parts of body what to do.  At death this signals stop and our muscles mostly relax so just after death a person might urinate or might defecate.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   I DONT KNOW IF ALL THIS IS TRUE OR NOT , BUT IT SATISFIED ME , IT GOT ME OUT OF THE HELPLESSNESS I WAS FEELING .
