Today I discussed the very pragmatic aspects of meditation, helping us to deal with things like trauma and depression, or really any sort of health issues that may come our way. If we are to effectively prepare ourselves for the death bardo, then we need to find ways to open our heart and mind in such a way that our problems become more of a background concern. Meditation is a very pragmatic way of doing just this.
In order to prepare for death, we must learn how to deal with everything we encounter in life. If we are diligent, we will find ways to meditate that will really open our potentiality. In time, we will all awaken.
Blessings in Light,
