【Mindfulness of Death】- We will not missed out a single one when busy with things in this current life
【Then, as long as you have this attitude, you will continually think only of how to achieve happiness and evade suffering in this life alone, thinking, “I need this and that.” You will not engage in religious practice because you do not think about things of great importance, such as future lives, liberation and omniscience. 】
Because you are constantly preoccupied with the immediate things that led you to think in this manner: busy with such things cannot be avoided and none of these can be exempted. Ah-ya, this reason seems to be very valid. Ah-ya, this cannot be left alone, that cannot be avoided and this cannot be dispensed with. “you will continually think only”, our mind is always pre-occupied with all these things in any circumstances. What is the aim of thinking about all these things? “How to achieve happiness and evade suffering in this life” – therefore, we are preoccupied with what to achieve in this life. From here, let’s think, is this correct, is this correct? Thus, the ancients after attainments have a special trait – The body might be poor, but is rich in Dharma. Why is the body poor? Because he does not dwell on current happiness, cast away anything current. Even if the body is very skinny, it does not matter. This body is a result of karmic causes, something that you cannot even discard, why do you still want it?

念死无常 : 忙现世的事一件也少不了
【于此时中，谓须如是如是众事，数数思惟，唯于现法，除苦引乐，所有方便，不生观察后世，解脱，一切智等大义之心，故不令起趣法之意。】
因为你老是想着忙现在的事情，于是你就这样想：忙现在嘛，也要，这种事情就少不了啊！就这种事情是没有一样东西少得了的，唉呀，说起来这个道理是不晓得有多大！唉呀，这个事情又不行，那个事情啊又少不了，这个事情又必不可少的，就这样。“如是如是，数数思惟，”在任何情况下我们脑筋里想的，都是想那些的事情，所有想那些事目的干什么？“唯于现法，除苦引乐”，所有忙的这些都是我们求现世的，大家从这地方不妨想想看，对是不对？对是不对？所以古人他成就了以后，他有个特征—身贫是道不贫。身为什么贫啊？他不求现在的，现在就不要啊，哪怕他骨瘦如柴，那没关系啊！骨瘦如柴，它这个业报之身，它本来丢都丢不掉，你要它干什么？
