Description

Facing disease and death can be a daunting experience. However, by drawing on the wisdom of the Buddha's teachings, it is possible to approach these challenges with greater clarity and compassion.

This collection of passages from the Buddha's early discourses provides practical guidance for those facing illness and passing away. The author, Anālayo, has carefully selected and translated key texts that focus on the theme of compassion as a motivating force in altruistic action.

Through his own translations and commentary, Analayo offers a unique insight into how early Buddhism addresses these universal human concerns. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to cultivate greater wisdom and peace in the face of adversity.
