What is life? How can we live it to the fullest? In this episode we explore how to understand birth, life, death...and beyond, from a multidimensional, rather than dualistic perspective, and learn how ironically, the consistent recollection of our own mortality supports, nourishes, and enhances life.
Lama Zopa guides a meditation of shamatha (English: tranquility, or calm abiding) and meditative inquiry, an insight practice from the Tibetan that invokes, instills, and integrates prajna, precise knowing.
