Dying is an essential part of our life. We all will face death no matter how fearful many of us may be. Preparing oneself for death is one of the most powerful, liberating and worthy things we can do. It reduces our fear of dying, increases our appreciation of life and helps us see death as an incredibly powerful opportunity for liberation for it is at the moment of death that we experience our true nature, the clear light state of mind.
Providing detailed descriptions of the process of dying and what comes after, combined with in-depth instructions for what to do in this most powerful moment of our lives in order to seize this amazing opportunity to find liberation from the cyclical existence of Samsara, is one of the most precious jewels of Tibetan wisdom.
Death is an indescribably strong natural force that – combined with the power of meditation – can be used as a vehicle to realize our true nature, which is the union of bliss and emptiness. In order for us to be able to use death for our liberation, we need to familiarize ourselves with what happens during the process of death and we need to practice the meditation that helps us navigate this process.
In this Online Live Retreat, Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche will teach us about the cycle of ‘death – intermediate state – birth’, talk us through the death process, and teach as well as practice with us a meditation for the moment of death so that we can practice it during our lifetime.
Learning about death makes us understand the true meaning of life, teaches us how to live our lives well and helps us overcome our fear of dying. We develop more appreciation for life’s preciousness, it becomes easier for us to distinguish between what is more and what is less important in life, and it helps us enjoy life in all its beauty.
