You say that, and I don't necessarily disagree, but I believe that everyone is gripped by panic when they know they're about to die. I don't care how enlightened you are, we all fear death above all else. That, I think, is the root of the desire for immortality. The only really pleasant, anxiety-free way to die is to not see it coming. We should wish for that rather than wish for immortality.
