What is the modern equivalent of a glorious death in the name of a sacred value?
This is fitness related because self actualization and mortality are essential parts of mental life and fitness (technically).

People are killed for what they believe in every fricking day. If thats what you want start taking a stand in public
mass shooting
There is no such thing as a 'glorious death'. It's literally just a propaganda term invented by warmongers so that young men will throw themselves into war at no benefit to themselves.

I'm not religious in any capacity. If I was, I wouldn't care about dying because I would believe in an afterlife.
All of those religions glorify honorable deaths, though. Death in the name of a sacred value is just about the greatest honor a human being can aspire to according to Christians. You literally get to cut in line and sit next to God.
I'm not talking about war. There's no way I would have wanted to fight in any recent US wars. I'm talking about something like what Cato Minor did.
Cato the Younger?

How do you feel about war?
Get rich and famous have kids.
Die and have 500 extremely close friends and family attend.
There isn't any. There isn't a sacred value that you can die for in the west because most values won't get you killed here and the ones that would make you a pariah aren't moral enough to "gloriously" die for.
The idea of a glorious death is lame anyway. If you have values you wish to share then share them live them out and their fruits will be evident to those who witness you.
>in the west
name a value worthy of this in the east
Can't.
There's no pride in the east

Everyone is equal in death.
Unironically Kobe taking his kids to bball practice and skipping that LA traffic
Closest modern day example is Mishima or Venner or those buddhists that self-immolate

This.
It's one of the clearest pictures I have in my mind. Very beautiful.
Do tons of gear until you get so big your heart explodes
