People who have had the rare opportunity of becoming human beings, and the even rarer one of meeting with the Buddha Sasana should practice Satipatthana meditation - which can cultivate the mind and develop insight-daily and regularly, at least until they get a guarantee for life (in forthcoming samsarika wanderings) so that they can reap the rare benefits of having become human beings and of having met with the Buddha Sasana.
