Why is thinking about Death is so important to Buddhists (and can it help you)? - Buddhism Explained

Despite common misconceptions, buddhists are not obsessed with death, they are obsessed with happiness.

Ask a Buddhist what's the number one cause of death, and the Buddhist will say: "birth."

While it's true that Buddhism has a deep interest in the subject of Death, it is just a true to say that Buddhism has a deep interest in a great number of the things that seem to plague the human experience.  However, the comfort with which Buddhists can talk about Death seems to make a lot of people uncomfortable and, as a result, it gets over-played in our media and culture.

So why does Buddhism have such a focus on Death?

    Mike Turner Photo Buddhist Analytical Meditation Trainer
    Hi! My name is Mike Turner. I'm a Buddhist Ariya-puggala and I've spent over 25 years learning and cultivating what I do, and what I do goes far beyond meditation and dharma. 

    I work with dedicated Buddhist practitioners to help them attain stream-entry. This kind of one-on-one training isn't readily available to lay practitioners and I hope to do my part. 

    I'm available for intermediate and advanced practitioners of meditation-and-dharma to help them significantly advance their practice and their progress toward Buddhist enlightenment.

    Please visit my home page to see what my stream-entry and enlightenment training can do for you.

    "The only thing that prevents people from attaining Enlightenment and experiencing Nirvana directly is insufficient instruction and/or practice."
