Comments
The last line is meant to be a mystery. To the Taoist death is perfectly normal; it is part of a cycle and comes to all living things. To die without having the person's presence in this world perish is the real art. It probably means an enduring legacy here to help those who stay behind in this world. It might meaning passing on one's learning of the Tao to others.
