That makes sense.

I guess what prompted my question on what Culadasa meant by preparing for death was that I’m dealing with a lot of anxiety and fear in my own life and practice and a theme that comes up and links to it is death anxiety. I’ve been struggling with any practices other than metta/brahmavihara’s with other practices triggering a lot of fear, disorientation, depersonalisation and sometimes fear of death. Any suggestions greatly welcomed, for now I have decreased my practice and focused only on metta

Hi Jeremy

Thank you for your answer it clarified a lot. Also going back to the pages you recommended I got a lot more re-reading them, I think I need to re-read the whole book based off that experience!

I had picked up that Culadasa had health issues but I didn’t know that it was that serious, very sorry to hear that and I hope his health continues to improve. I guess even with deep insights into no self that nothing would prepare you completely for having to face that reality until you are there.

Thanks again
