Guided Death Meditation to Live more (Maranasati)

[@robertcuneo2413]

I have pancreatic cancer..The end is inevitable and getting closer. Thank you so much for this . I will practice this everyday until my end. It really is helpful. Once more, thank you.

It’s goes on brother. Doesn’t make it easier but it is simply a transition and more than likely you’ll transition back here again. I’ll meditate and pray for you tonight. You’re loved ❤️

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

Wow. Firstly apologies it took me so long to get back to you! I had stopped uploading to KZbin and wasn’t checking comments etc. Thank you for your kind words. Especially knowing they come from a place of really facing the end. You’re an inspiration my friend.

[@mattmorgan_oct17]

I’m so sorry. My prayers and condolences. What an incredible thing to deal with. My prayers are with you. I know I cannot make this right but I hope my comment can ease just a small amount of your pain. ❤

[@Six-Plumed]

Sending you all the love in the world Robert. ❤

[@uhhwellthatsnotgood]

I love you Robert and I hope you experience the serenity, freedom, and joy that this present moment has for you.

So powerful, i full on cried imagining the pain on my mothers face the moment she hears about my death. Grateful to be alive. Namaste

When I first listened to this tears and deep grief poured out of me even 10-15 mins afterward. The second time the tears and grief were there but not to the same degree. The third time tears & grief were even less and started close to the end instead of from beginning of the meditation to the end. My heart felt tight too. Today, no tears or grief at all.

I am so thankful for my health.. It i something I should never have taken for granted.. All it takes is for one piece of bad news to make you realise it was the most treasured thing you could possibly have.. One thing I have always noticed in dying people is they live and savour every single moment, because they know the true value of living.. This is not something which should require a terrible diagnosis to equate.. Let all of us, healthy or not, appreciate that we are alive here today, and hopefully, we will get to appreciate the same thing tomorrow. My heart goes out to you all.

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

Amen brother. You get it!!

[@olihoxhaj2021]

I will come back to this every day, thank you. The first time I comment on a video ❤

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

Please do!!!

[@psychosalt6251]

Thank you for such a sobering meditation, it is something I will keep in my memory, an audio that may become one of my friends along my journey. Thank you for the gift of this thoughtfully spoken audio recording

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

Hello!! It’s so interesting right? We all know we are going to die, but we often forget. Well done for doing it. I know it can be tough!!

[@cameronmurray1151]

Needed this more than I realised. Feel like my head has had a good clean. Thank you so much for this. I wish you all the best in life.

[@chicostarr2865]

this was beautiful. I cant believe it doesnt have more view. Please know that it helped me at least. thank you for putting fourth the effort to make this

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

Hey Chico. Thank you for taking the time to say that. I really appreciate it. It’s great to know it’s of use to someone out there. That’s what it’s for. Have a great day!

[@judithpellegrino9897]

Meditating on death is not popular but so necessary to put relationships & life experiences into perspective.

[@whereispabloo]

This was so beautiful. The best death meditation I’ve done. Thank you so much for sharing this with us ❤

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

Thanks you. It really helps getting the feedback

[@user-nf1hm3ny6s]

This is a wonderful meditation. Thank you.

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

I’m so glad you enjoyed it!!

[@heal.alenamana]

Thank you for this meditation ..

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

You're most welcome!

[@werewolf35]

Was so good loved it❤

[@jsohi0082]

I love this meditation. It's relaxing and relieving. I think you could spend a bit more time in each phrase so that we can think it over for a bit longer. For example I had little time to think about what I would say to those people I hurt and couldn't undo. But still, thank you. Maybe you could create another death meditation too since you are that good at itm

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

That’s such great constructive Cristian. So I thank you and will try to do better going forward!

[@Brinschka]

thank you so much for this.

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

You're very welcome!

[@lesleycoward3078]

All of my family and close friends have already died - so there would be no-one at my funeral. Not sure to get round this.

[@okays297]

❤❤❤❤

[@PotatoPCFishingBoomerDude]

I Am Alive. I Am Here.

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

And I am happy for both!

[@fingerprint5511]

With such an important topic, why is it sped along when we are supposed to reflect? You may benefit from listening to Jayasara Sameneri on KZbin, her readings are read exactly as a Buddhist is supposed to reflect - slowly, mindfully. I felt like I was in a shopping centre rushed to grab bargains instead of emptiness where Buddha could arise to guide ... then a loud ad at the end ! Very sad.

[@colinmalsingh2667]

I found this repetitive and it didn't hold my engagement. I've done other death meditations and this one isn't something I'll go back to☹

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

Fair enough. Thanks for your input nonetheless the less.

[@majanaga4102]

Nice meditation. But for me there is too much about what would people say about you, because I really don't care

[@thedownwarddoug6642]

That is such a great point. I have a revision of this now.

[@MashNozzle]

Instructions unclear, I went out and had sex with my cousin. Now I'm in trouble

[@TheYandi123]

This saved me today. Thank you so much 🥹🥰😭
