	[ PRACTICES ONLINE - Daily Practices ] PRACTICE 5: MEDITATION ON DEATH AND THE END OF DEATH Death is feared, avoided, and denied in ways that often causes us to live as if we will never die. At the end of life, people often die with intense regret from not having done the important things they wanted to do in their life. Acknowledging the fact that we will die, and that we have a limited, unknown amount of time left is essential to making our life choices. By meditating on death in the proper way, we can make every moment of life precious and meaningful. A good death meditation results in a happy, clear mind, free of anxiety and fear. One learns to live each day of life as if it were the last, thereby avoiding meaningless activity and spending each moment in the most fulfilling way possible. This meditation Practice consists of six sessions recorded from the original retreat, along with corresponding written materials, which are comprised of readings, homework, quizzes, and answer keys.
