I believe that before any living being dies, powerful forces are unleashed, and wishes, prayers, or blessings may become fulfilled, and evil destroyed. This is why the patriarcal fathers and prophets in the old testament called upon the one who was to succeed them. And likewise, if one kills an innocent being, whether it is an innocent animal, insect,or human, whether it is intended or not, evil will be destroyed. This happens by an impersonal cosmic Law. That is why in the old testament people sacrificed innocent and pure animals so sins couild be forgiven, or evil within the human could be destroyed. The more pure your life, and the better being you are, the more evil will be destryed upon your death. This destruction of evil is especially true if you are killed by evil forces themselves.When evil forces throw themselves at a good and pure Soul, the evil force becomes destroyed. This is why after I killed a million mosquitoes, I still feel them biting me and get bumps long after they are gone. I was their force of evil, and the impurity is still within me as I kill more. This is one of the reasons why Saints and Martyrs never ran from death at the hands of evil. They know that evil will be destryed for themselves and others. Like on a much grander scale of Jesus dying for the sins or bad karma of many. A pure or good Soul no matter what they believe can become like a blazing fire that burns to nothing bad karma and evil during their life and during death. Even an innocent insect, causes my mosquitoe murdering mind to blow on me when their is'nt even one around.
