"Death is Our Friend" by Paul Harris

Death is not the opposite to life. Through meditation we find that both the arising and passing away of things are equally fundamental and necessary aspects of life. Far from being morbid, death is actually our friend. Reflecting wisely on our mortality brings a zest and lightness to life, helping us make the best choices. Treating death as a wise advisor can help us clarify and focus on what is really important, both in formal meditation and life generally.

Paul Harris is the Spiritual Head and principal meditation teacher at the House of Inner Tranquillity.
