Synopsis

Originally printed as a booklet, this text describes the dying process and provides brief but profound instructions on preparing for death. Many readers have commented that they feel comfortable giving it to their elderly parents or to friends who are dealing with life-threatening illnesses. This second edition includes additional practical information on preparing a durable power of attorney for health care, a living will for life-support treatment, and a letter of instruction regarding one's final arrangements.

About this title

About the Author:

Born in Tibet in 1930, His Eminence, Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche, a highly revered meditation master, received extensive training in the vast wealth of Buddhist teachings and methods from many great lamas and belongs to the last generation of teachers to have received such training while still living in Tibet. For twenty years, he worked for the spiritual and economic welfare of Tibetan refugees in India and Nepal. In 1979, at the invitation of several students, he came to the West and has since established many centers in both North and South America.

Review:

Comforting and forthright, his words are as sage and timely at any stage in life as when preparing to die. -- NAPRA Review-MBT

This book quells the overwhelming sense of fear, disorientation, and confusion that so often accompany the transition into death. -- The Beacon
