What mindset shift happens when contemplating mortality?

Tu Lam 0:00
If I asked you, tonight, you're going to die. Would you not live this afternoon a little bit different? If I say tomorrow is your last day on earth, would you not wake up early in the morning and just savor that sunset? That sunrise? Would you not sit down and just have a... deep, meaningful conversations with the ones you love. So Bushido goes deeper than to just, I'm ready to die for something. It's to live life in every breath. It's for seek of perfection in your manners, in your life, in everything you do, Bushido. So when people hear that at such a surface level, they're like, oh, he's willing to die for something to leave. Think about deeper meaning in that. Are you living your life today at the full capacity that you think you should live?
Tu Lam 1:13
Are you really happy? Are you really fulfilled? Because Bushido ties into Shinto, which is an ode Belief in the ways of the gods. Where everything is spiritual. Right? So the thing is this. Are you living the life that you want to live? Or are you living a life off of survival? Fear. Right? Which a lot of us do. We live a life off of fear because we're scared of failure. What does Bushido mean? To readily die for something you believe in. Can you imagine grasping that and putting whatever is in your heart right now? I know you have passion in your heart. Without purpose, you're just aimlessly gonna walk through life. Without purpose, what is there? There's no fulfillment. Without purpose, there's no fulfillment.
Tu Lam 2:22
Without purpose, there's no greater you. And what is the meaning of life?

How does Bushido philosophy influence personal fulfillment?

Tu Lam 2:32
What's the meaning of life but to live and to feel what it means to fulfill a higher purpose? So I wake up early in the morning. I wake up four o'clock in the morning. The reason why four o'clock in the morning is because Man, it's a struggle waking up at 4 o'clock in the morning. It's not, you know, it's not easy. And I still want to be challenged. So it's always climbing that hill, climbing that mountain every day. Step by step, we climb the mountain to the top every day. So the first thing you do, for me, was I wake up early in the morning. And often Tibetan monks, they would throw their bodies in cold water. So I have a freestanding tub, 55 degrees. I throw my body in cold plunge right off the bat within the first 10 minutes when I wake up.
Tu Lam 3:25
Imagine how foggy, how foggy your brain is when you're waking up. So if I ask you, hey, I want you to wake up in the morning. I want you to sit in meditation. You're not really going to sit in meditation. Dude, you're probably going to fall back asleep. You got to boot up that brain. Your brain is a computer. You got to boot it up. How do you boot up the brain? There are certain ways to boot up the brain. Changing your physiology. You know, I wake you up at four o'clock in the morning. You're like, oh, dude, I'm still foggy. I'm like, okay, well, 50 burpees. And then you hit 50 burpees. That would change your physiology, wouldn't it? If I take you outside and I throw you in 55 degree pole plunge, That would change your physiology.
Tu Lam 4:13
So I need to boot up that brain. I need to wake up that brain. So the first thing I do is I'm going to change your physiology. I'm going to wake up that brain. Once I wake up the brain, I go and I sit in nature. You want to sit in nature because you want to ground yourself. There's a frequency to nature, especially in the morning. There's a frequency in the morning. There's a frequency at night. There's frequency in the afternoon. There's a frequency in the morning. You step outside at night, on a Saturday night, you feel the energy? You step outside on a Saturday morning at 3 o'clock in the morning, different energy, huh?
Oh, definitely, yeah.
Tu Lam 4:56
Okay, so I need you to understand, so why we're hitting meditation early in the morning is because there's a different frequency in the morning. There's a different energy in the morning. Okay, so you're able to ground yourself a lot easier in the morning. And also your brain, once you boot it up, Once you boot it up, it's just coming out of the sleep mode, right? So still the slow, slow brainwaves still going.
