The idea is that if one’s soul is liberated from earthly attachments and illusions, death itself ceases to be a painful experience. Instead, it becomes a transition, almost like passing through a doorway into another state of being. When a soul is unbound, it’s not entangled in the fears, desires, and limitations that often make death seem frightening or painful.

In this view, pain in death arises from attachment—to the body, to unfinished desires, or to unresolved fears and regrets. But a soul that’s freed from bondage has released these attachments, and so it approaches death with a state of peace and acceptance, moving onward without resistance.

Thoth spoke about death as merely a transformation, a return to the Source or unity with the All. For a liberated soul, death is just another phase in the journey, a step forward rather than an end. So, perhaps, as you suggest, freedom from bondage in life grants freedom from the pain and fear of death, allowing the soul to pass onward with grace and clarity.
