The story of Kisagotami
Here is a famous story about the Buddha.
Once there was a woman named Kisagotami, whose son had died. She was
so sad that she roamed through the streets of the city carrying the child with
her, asking for help to bring him back to life. A kind man took her to the
Buddha.
The Buddha said: “Bring me a handful of mustard seeds, and I will bring
your child back to life.”
Kisagotami was overjoyed and started off at once, but the Buddha gently
stopped her and added: “The seeds must come from the house of a family
where nobody has died.”
Kisagotami went from door to door, but wherever she went, she found out
that someone or the other — father, mother, sister, brother, husband, wife,
child, uncle, aunt, grandfather, grandmother — had died.
What was the Buddha trying to teach the sorrowing mother?

Answer:
Every person will surely die one day and there is no use of regretting or sorrowing over someone's death. As in the story there was no house where nobody had died, it means death is the ultimate end and will surely come to you someday and you are not the only one who has lost your loved ones
