The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying

Informationen zum Autor Born in Kham in Eastern Tibet, Sogyal Rinpoche was recognized at an early age as the incarnation of Terton Sogyal Lerab Lingpa - a teacher to the Thirteenth Dalai Lama. He received the traditional training of a Tibetan lama under the close supervision of Jamyang Khyentse Chokyi Lodro, one of the most outstanding spiritual masters of the twentieth century. Rinpoche went on to study with many other teachers from all schools of Tibetan Buddhism. He visited many countries, observing the reality of individuals' lives, and seeking to make the Tibetan Buddhist teachings meaningful to modern people. Out of this was born his unique style of teaching and his acute ability to attune the teachings to modern life. Rinpoche founded Rigpa, an international network of Buddhist centres. He passed away in 2019. Klappentext Written by the Buddhist meditation master and popular international speaker Soygal Rinpoche, this highly acclaimed book clarifies the majestic vision of life and death that underlies the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. It includes not only a lucid, inspiring and complete introduction to the practice of meditation but also advice on how to care for the dying with love and compassion, and how to bring them help of a spiritual kind. But there is much more besides in this classic work, which was written to inspire all who read it to begin the journey to enlightenment and so become 'servants of peace.' Zusammenfassung Written by the Buddhist meditation master and popular international speaker Soygal Rinpoche, this highly acclaimed book clarifies the majestic vision of life and death that underlies the Tibetan Buddhist tradition.
