Sudden tragic times for a friend.
During my sleepless night, solace
from an unexpected source
settles over me
like a fine cool mist—

a weird question came up for dive in another post : "would he give up his place in heaven for another?"
I believe his answer was that he would for a family member.(this question was for (divegeester)

It got me thinking (except for the theological differences), isn't this proposal similar to a version of Bhoddhisatvahood? (excuse spelling)

Namaste
A time for mourning
But thinking we come alone and we go alone, is an illusion
Your friend transcended permanence and annihilation
Destroying at last Tosotsu’s third barrier
