Abstract: My study examines death as a phenomenon from the point of view of psychology of religious, as death affects everyone and is closely related to everyday life, the perception of life and the meaning of life. The purpose of my work is pointing on how certain religions give an adequate or acceptable answer to the question of death, in our case the Christianity and Eastern world religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism. From the point of view of psychology of religious, I would like to point out the character of death and dying in these religions, looking for parallels between them. After exploring the specifics and manifestations of general psychology of religious, the research provides a brief insight into the approach to death in the three mentioned religions, and then tries to compare differences and looking for parallels. It shows how preparation for death is taking place in ones lives, followed by funeral, and how death is processed and accepted during the period of mourning, highlighting some characteristics.
Key words: death, religions, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism.
