Transcription

The meditation encourages finding a comfortable position and closing your eyes to relax the body. It discusses the concept of death as a transformation and a teacher that enriches our lives. Visualizing oneself as an old person on their deathbed helps reflect on meaningful moments and let go of petty arguments and worries. The meditation suggests imagining knowing that death is coming soon and considering what we would do differently, say differently, and who we would forgive. It quotes Ramana Maharshi, emphasizing that embracing death can lead to living with more love and authenticity. The meditation reminds that we are not just our physical bodies or passing thoughts and emotions, but the eternal consciousness observing them. It encourages letting go of the fear of mortality and accepting death as an integral part of life. By doing so, we can experience profound peace and gratitude for the gift of life. The meditation concludes by urging to carry the understanding of death as a guide Welcome to meditate with me, let's meditate. Find a comfortable position, one where you can relax the body with the goal of not feeling it at all, and gently close your eyes and take it deep, deep, bright, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep present moment Let the features of your face, your eyes, your nose your cheeks, your lips, and your jaw surrender into their inherent alignment as you descend into the river of tranquility Let us contemplate the concept of death not as an end, but as a transformation Consider the prospect of death not as a threat, but as the ultimate teacher the teacher that makes our lives richer, deeper, and more meaningful Visualize yourself as an old person lying on your deathbed reflecting back on your life Think about the moments that mattered to you most the laughter, the love, the joy, the pain, the lessons, and the growth Let us contemplate the concept of death not as an end, but as a transformation Visualize yourself as an old person lying on your deathbed reflecting back on your life Think about the moments that mattered to you most the laughter, the joy, the pain, the lessons, and the growth Let us contemplate the concept of death not as an end, but as a transformation Visualize yourself as an old person lying on your deathbed reflecting back on your life Think about the moments that mattered to you most Now, think about the moments that didn't matter the petty arguments, the grudges, the unnecessary worries, and the wasted time Visualize yourself as an old person lying on your deathbed Think about the moments that didn't matter Think about the moments that didn't matter Now, imagine you knew that your time was coming soon What would you do differently?

Let these questions guide you in this meditation. Let these questions guide you in this meditation. Let these questions guide you in this meditation. In the words of Ramana Maharshi, death is the only wise advisor that a warrior has. If we let death advise us in every moment, we would live our lives with more love, more authenticity, and less fear. If we let death advise us in every moment, we would live our lives with more love, more authenticity, and less fear. Let these questions guide you in this meditation. You are not merely your physical body, which is subject to the ravages of time and decay. You are not the fleeting thoughts that flow through your mind like a river. You are not the powerful emotions that rise and fall like the tides. Instead, you are the quiet observer of these phenomena, the eternal consciousness that persists even when all else has crumbled to dust. As Alan Watts said, you are an aperture through which the universe is looking at and exploring. You are the universe itself. Allow yourself to let go of any lingering fear of mortality. Embrace the undeniable truth that death is an integral part of the cycle of life, an essential component of the grand tapestry of existence. There is no need to resist or fear this reality. Instead, by accepting it, you open your heart to a profound sense of peace that surpasses all understanding. This peace fosters a deep and abiding gratitude for the incredibly precious gift of life. Such gratitude can transform your life. Your perspective infusing every moment with a sense of preciousness and wonder. Your perspective infusing every moment with a sense of preciousness and wonder. When you are ready, gently bring your awareness back to your body. Wiggle your fingers and your toes and take a few more deep, deep breaths. Breath. Open your eyes, feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and deeply relaxed. As we conclude today's meditation, carry this profound lesson with you. Death is not to be feared, but to be understood as a teacher that guides us to live authentically, fully, and with deep appreciation for every moment. Each day, let this understanding guide your actions, your thoughts, your words, and your relationships. Let it remind you to live with less fear, more love, and with the wisdom of knowing that this moment right here, right now, is all we truly have. Namaste.
