The "death" and freedom means you would have no attachment to the outcome of your service--or whether you got to be of service at all. Desire draws us here, even the desire to serve, because it is something you "want". Striving implies preference and desire--but we are all in various stages of freeing ourselves from desire and working back towards unity. Working genuinely in duality/manifestation and with desire is an important part of choosing "death" and freedom, in my opinion.
