The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, by Sogyal Rinpoche
In 1927, Walter Evans-Wentz published his translation
of an obscure Tibetan Nyingma text and called it the
Tibetan Book of the Dead. Popular Tibetan teacher
Sogyal Rinpoche has transformed that ancient text,
conveying a perennial philosophy that is at once
religious, scientific, and practical. Through
extraordinary anecdotes and stories from religious
traditions East and West, Rinpoche introduces the
reader to the fundamentals of Tibetan Buddhism, moving
gradually to the topics of death and dying. Death turns
out to be less of a crisis and more of an opportunity.
Concepts such as reincarnation, karma, and bardo and
practices such as meditation, tonglen, and phowa teach
us how to face death constructively. As a result, life
becomes much richer. Like Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, Sogyal
Rinpoche opens the door to a full experience of death.
It is up to the reader to walk through. --Brian Bruya
