Extreme unction - interpretation
However we have lived our life, whatever mistakes we have made, when the time comes for us to leave this earth, each one of us can at least try to do so in a spirit of peace and harmony, reconciled with all beings, and particularly with God, our heavenly father. In the Christian religion, this is the meaning of extreme unction. Extreme unction, the sacrament a priest administers to the dying, is based on true knowledge: a person’s inner state during their last moments determines the path they will follow in the next world. It also plays an important role in their next incarnation and therefore their long-term future. The extreme unction is simply a way of creating the most favourable conditions for a Christian to leave the earth, but like all sacraments, the ritual itself is not absolutely essential. It is meant to help the faithful who receive it, but we can all live our last moments in the light without receiving this sacrament.
