the only book necessary October 31, 2008

I read 'The Tibetan Book of Living And Dying' in the course of 10 years - I simply had to stop to digest/meditate after almost every page. It is so filled with advice for the living, the dying, and those inbetween.
You don't have to be a buddhist to benefit from this book. Sogyal Rinpoche is so well founded in western thought and draws on many sources (including Elisabeth Kübler-Ross and Raymond Moody) ...and the writing is very straightforward.
I am very much looking forward to read it again ...and to give away a few more copies.

A book that really makes you think about how we deal with death and dying, both on a personal level and as a society. Very moving and inspirational.

It's refreshing for someone to write such a thoughtful and life-affirming book about death. For something so ubiquitous, death isn't really discussed in Western society (well, in my family at least). And this can cause unnecessary pain when someone close does die.
Reading this book has helped me see that death can have a positive effect on your life.

An insightful read whether you're Buddhist or not. June 4, 2006

This book as so much to offer whether you're Buddhist or not. It discusses ways to live your life better, as well as how to die in a dignified and honorable way. In a society where death is taboo it is refreshing to read about it in such a matter of fact way and with information you feel can be of use to you. This book is more about living your life well, and has so much to offer you if that is what you wish for. A modern classic for a reason.
