Back Cover:

'This book represents an apex in human wisdom: it is a radiant gem transmitting the accumulated insights of centuries of Tibetan Buddhism. With great gentleness and penetrating clarity, it boldly asks us to see death not as an 'if' or a 'when' but as a 'how'.

'It is no accident that this book arrives in the West at this historical moment, for we need this knowledge now more than ever before. This is a time when we must learn to live on this Earth - and depart from it - in a new way, a way that embodies great delicacy and discernment. This is an instruction manual on how to do it. It would be a mistake to postpone our confrontation with Tibetan wisdom because it is ancient. The truth is, it is timeless, and we need it desperately' - Larry Dossey

'Sogyal Rinpoche belongs to the last generation of Tibetans who grew up among eminent masters of the Buddhist tradition, and subsequently blended skilfully into the Western world. In this his first book, his capacity for being a bridge between two worlds shines through vividly. He has chosen to focus on the reality of death, which, in his presentation, becomes a celebration and search for the very ground of life. That is a message that will be of interest to all, whether Buddhist or not. I am particularly moved by his unceasing and intelligent devotion to his tradition and his teachers; read this boo and savour the lovingness of this special link' - Francisco J. Varela, author of Embodied Mind.

Inside Front Cover:

'What is it I hope for 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.'

An acclaimed spiritual masterpiece, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying is a manual for life and death and a magnificent source of sacred inspiration from the heart of the Tibetan tradition. Sogyal Rinpoche delivers a lucid and inspiring introduction to the practice of meditation, to the nature of mind, to karma and rebirth, to compassionate love and care for the dying, and to the trials and reward of the spiritual path. This jewel of Tibetan wisdom is the definitive new spiritual classic for our times.
