Meditation on Death
Sit in your usual meditation position, straight back but relaxed and comfortable-
Concentrate on each single breath you take-
Contemplate on how each breath has the potential to be your last-
Think about death. Life is the mother of death. You are born, you will die-
There is no escaping death, it is a certainty. You are here one day, gone the next-
Think of all the family members, friends, acquaintances, and strangers who have died-
People die at all ages, expected or unexpectedly. One never knows when death shall arrive-
Since death is natural, contemplate on being at peace with it-
Since death may come at any time, appreciate the life you have now-
