Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi was a big mystic thinker and poet in 13. Century. I saw a poem of him. Very beautiful and meaningful. I hope google translation makes a true translation.
I died as a stone, borned as a plant.
I died as a plant and I was an animal.
I died as an animal, then I'm human.
So why fear death?
I have never been worse,
Or have I been seen lowering?
One day I will die as a human,
a creature of light,
I'll be the angel of dreams.
But my path will continue,
Everything else will be lost except Allah.
I will be something that no one sees or hears.
It's a star on the stars,
I will shine on birth and death.
