The Death of Death: Bringing The Tibetan Book of the Dead to Life | Dr. Andrew Holecek

From the Tibetan perspective, death is an illusion. The path to “immortality” is to discover that which cannot die—because it was never born. Armed with the right view, death provides us with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to realize the truth of our deathless nature. We then have nothing to fear, and everything to look forward to. Explore what does end, what continues, and where we go after we die according to Tibetan Buddhism. Learn how aging is a preliminary practice for death, how dreams can help us prepare, and how meditation is death in slow motion. Our fear of death is a secondary and inauthentic fear, so what are we really afraid of? Find out why the Tibetan approach to death is one of the greatest gifts to humanity, and how studying and practicing death, ironically, brings us more fully into life.
