When I was a Tibetan Buddhist practitioner, years ago I did a full Bardo retreat (the Tibetan Book of the Dead) and received all the teachings and empowerment and did all the practices. I never think about that these days, though.

I think in addition to what I said in my earlier post, regarding my own practice, I find that together with being aware of impermanence this is a good contemplation from SN22.95 Phena Sutta:Foam.....

Sure Aloka. Impermanence can result in another way to meditate or reflect or contemplate the reality of death and realize letting go, for those to which a direct contemplation of death can result quite uncomfortable.
