eternal rest
Permanent peaceful slumber
Eternal rest is death, framed as peaceful sleep without end.
The phrase appears in religious contexts, prayers, and epitaphs: May she find eternal rest.
It offers comfort by casting death not as extinction but as release from earthly troubles—a permanent state of repose.
