Meditation Class: A Buddhist Perspective on Aging

When we’re young, old age and sickness can feel distant—almost unreal. Yet time passes quickly, and sooner than we expect, we grow older and face illness. Aging and sickness are unavoidable parts of life, and still, we spend so much time, energy, and money trying to avoid them. Often, our efforts focus only on the outward signs of growing older. A Buddhist perspective invites us to look inward instead. It encourages us to examine our attitudes toward aging and illness with honesty and compassion.
