What Matters Most: How the Meditation on Death Empowers our Life

This class is offered in-person only

Why would anyone want to meditate on death? Isn’t that depressing? Not according to Buddha. Since death is the one thing we know for sure is going to happen to us, not to consider it when we are thinking about how to make the most of our lives makes no sense. It is in the full awareness of our own mortality that we naturally prioritize what matters most. In this sense, the meditation on death is profoundly life-affirming! It is the most spiritually motivating of all the meditations, making us want to take full advantage of every single moment of our precious human life.

In this series, through talks and guided meditations, France will take us on a journey into the profound implications of this special meditation that has been empowering spiritual practitioners for centuries.
