In this guided mediation, we travel imaginatively with an awareness that is free from the physical body following death. What is it like to be consciousness that is not tied to a body? The power of creative imagination can help us investigate the circumstances around death and gently probe our ideas and expectations. Our hearts can be touched deeply by this kind of contemplation of our own mortality. Jan Chozen Bays MD is a longtime Zen teacher, author, and pediatrician. She resides in Oregon.
