Mikadho - Atisha Gründonnerstag 2024

Thank you for joining me for this Contemplating Death Meditation. Let’s turn down the volume in our mind, body, and environment and turn inward today.

There is so much we do not know about death, that we cannot know until we experience this transition ourselves. It is only natural then, that we may greet the unknown with fear and anxiety.

Thankfully, there are a variety of wisdom teachings that can provide refuge as we approach our human condition. 

The lineage for today’s Nine Contemplations of Death comes from Atisha, an 11th century Tibetan Buddhist scholar, and contemporary scholar, teacher, and social activist Joan Halifax. 

These contemplations have been passed down for many generations because they are full of truth and insight. When practiced regularly, they can help us explore the inevitability of our deaths and allow us to center what is truly important to us, while we are still alive. 

1. All of us will die sooner or later. Death is inevitable, no one is exempt.
2. Our life span is decreasing continuously. 
3. Death will indeed come, whether or not we are prepared. 
4. Our life span, like that of all living beings, is not fixed. 
5. Death has many causes. 
6. Our human body is fragile and vulnerable. 
7. My loved ones cannot keep me from death. 
8. At the moment of death, material resources will be of no use to me. 
9. My own body cannot help me at the time of death. 

Consider these truths deeply. Allow these contemplations to invite a profound awakening to the existential realities of life and death. May they guide you towards a more mindful existence.
