Focusing on the fact that our body is going to die, can arouse a sense of spiritual urgency, that again can help us developing wholesome states of mind. This practice is of great fruit and benefits, it helps to put life in perspective − what is important in life, what should we prioritise, what values should we have. We ask ourselves – how kind have we been, how much gratitude have we shown and how much wisdom have we developed?
This contemplation gives us resilience in time of death, it helps us live our lives to the best, so we have no regrets. And surprisingly, in will also bring us into the present moment of our lives.
If you only have a short time left to live − what would you have done?

The spiritual training is like aircon for your mind. Our body can be uncomfortable in a hot and humid climate. But air conditioning really can help. So too can our hot and uncomfortable mind get real help from our spiritual development of ethics, meditation and wisdom. But when doing your meditation, please allow your mind to calm down by itself – you just create more mental discomfort by craving, wanting and fighting your mind.
