Tibetan Book of Living and Dying

"What is it I hope from this book? To inspire a quiet revolution in the whole way we look at death and care for the dying and the whole way we look at life, and care for the living"

In this constantly changing world of ours, Sogyal Rinpoche's seminal work remains one of the most remarkable manuals for living and dying. 

First published 25 years ago, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying continues to touch both Buddhists and non-Buddhists alike. An acclaimed spiritual masterpiece, its scared inspiration comes from the heart of Tibetan tradition.

Known for his ability to interpret the ancient teachings for contemporary Western readers, Sogyal Rinpoche offers a lucid introduction to the practice of meditation, to the nature of the mind, to karma and rebirth, to compassionate love and care for the dying, and to the trials and rewards of the spiritual path.

Read by millions around the globe, this jewel of Tibetan wisdom is the definitive spiritual classic for our times.
