Dalai Lama - Advice on Dying

February 8th, 2007

“Everyone dies, but no one is dead, ” goes the Tibetan saying. It is with these words that Dalai Lama’s ‘Advice on Dying’ takes flight. Using a seventeenth-century poem written by a prominent scholar-practitioner, His Holiness the Dalai Lama draws from a wide range of traditions and beliefs to explore the stages we all go through when we die, which are the very same stages we experience in life when we go to sleep, faint, or reach orgasm (Shakespeare’s ‘little death”).

The stages are described so vividly that we can imagine the process of traveling deeper into the mind, on the ultimate journey of transformation. In this way, His Holiness shows us how to prepare for that time and, in doing so, how to enrich our time on earth, die without fear or upset, and influence the stage between this life and the next so that we may gain the best possible incarnation. As always, the ultimate goal is to advance along the path to enlightenment. Advice on Dying is an essential tool for attaining that eternal bliss.

Unless you’re a licensed physician, probably your best resource for finding information on breast cancer in the World-Wide-Web. Of course you can venture out to the local bookstore as well, or you may be able to simply read one of those medical texts online. It’s all about convenience. I’ve found that most people will not take the time to investigate things if it requires a significant amount of effort. They simply have other things they’d rather do instead. You know, like watch television. Ha, this is unfortunately our reality; like it or not. Anyway, if you have a computer handy with Internet access, you may actually look stuff up when needed. It’s just so easy and convenient. Well, one thing I do recommend that everyone find out more about is cancer. This is an illness that seriously afflicts our species.
