"For one who has taken his birth, death is certain; and for one who is dead, birth is certain. Therefore, in the unavoidable discharge of your duty, you should not lament." (Bhagavad-gita 2.27)

If you live in some places: mrtyus canicchatam nasid - There was even no death for those who did not want it. Bhag 9.10.53 According to Prabhupadaji it was "because of Lord Ramacandras presence as the King of the entire world. A similar situation could be introduced immediately, even in this age called Kali, the worst of all ages."
