Death Meditation To Live More (Maranasati)

Death can be a scary thing to contemplate, but it is also an inevitability. The concept of visualising one's own death is an ancient one, exercised by Buddhists and stoics alike. The practice gives us a fresh perspective on where our life is and if it's as we would like it, helping us to clarify our values. It is the ultimate form of gratitude as we imagine a world without the greatest gift we are given... Life
Trigger Warning: This practice includes references to death, dying and the departed.

Wow. This was very powerful. I don't think I have ever experienced such immense feelings of love in my whole life. I didn't know how it would affect me, I just knew I wanted to try a meditation on death. It far exceeded the expectations - although that feels wrong to say as I wasn't expecting anything, I was just curious.

Thank you 🙏🏻🥹good reminder, we are here just for a little time … and we are mortals

A short but powerful meditation. Absolutely one of the best I have engaged in.

Love this meditation and it’s perspective on life and what truly matters. Thank you so so much for creating it.

Ever since I was a young child, reflecting on death has always filled me with wonder and a keen appreciation for life. It’s validating to know that this death fascination also inspires others to live more fully!
