Description

The Tibetan Book of the Dead is a masterpiece of world literature, offering a comprehensive guide to living and dying. This beautifully translated text provides exquisitely written guidance and practices to help transform our experience in daily life, on the processes of dying and the after-death state, and on how to help those who are dying. Originally intended for both the living and the deceased, this work is a profound exploration of the human experience. Commentary by His Holiness the Dalai Lama adds depth and insight to this translation, which is the result of a collaborative effort with eminent contemporary masters of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. Thupten Jinpa, Graham Coleman, and Gyurme Dorje bring their expertise to this project, ensuring that the text is both accurate and accessible. A valuable resource for anyone interested in Tibetan Buddhism and the nature of death, The Tibetan Book of the Dead is a unique and thought-provoking work that will provide inspiration and support to many.
