Realize that you are the witness of the body, and the fear of death will leave you like a dream leaves a person who has woken up.
Adi Shankara
Panchadasi
Meaning:
Death is only a threat to the body. Since you are the conscious witness and not the physical form, you are essentially deathless.

Daily Application

Contemplate your immortality. If you were never born as a physical object, you cannot die as one. This realization allows you to live with absolute boldness and peace.
