Description

The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying is a contemporary spiritual masterpiece and source of sacred inspiration that interprets Tibetan Buddhism for the West.

Sogyal Rinpoche presents a radically new vision of living and dying. He shows how to go beyond our fear and denial of death to discover what it is in us that survives death and is changeless. Rinpoche explains simple yet powerful practices that listeners can use to transform their lives, prepare for death, and help the dying.

Great book, life changing brakin gpoint.

This is a book that I consider a life changing braking point, it guided me trough the death process of my son and is now guiding me through many aspects of my life. At the time I bought a hard copy, and I'm enjoying listening to it. This is a must read in this life. I thank Sagoyal for his great compassionate efforts to teach this knowledge.

The audio of this recording y s very good.This is a book that I consider a life changing braking point, it guided me trough the death process of my son and is now guiding me through many aspects of my life.

Bad narration, different narrator for the sample<br />

Heard a lot of great things about the book, and was highly disappointed to hear the narration.
The really annoying thing was that the sample narrator (which is great) didn't read the rest of the book..

Not very helpfull for everyday life

What disappointed you about The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying?

It seems to be mostly about helping people who are dying, and does not offer a lot of insight in to how to deal with everyday life and the difficulties of dealing with ego, which is the main source of suffering.

Would you ever listen to anything by Sogyal Rinpoche again?

Maybe, what makes me hesitant is that I found out he rapes his female students, or at least uses his position as a master to have sex with him. Several times he was summoned to court for this. This shows that he is apparently not capable of being a good master and that makes his teachings less pure I would think.

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I liked the performance.

What character would you cut from The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying?

none, it's not applicable.

Any additional comments?

If you look for enlightenment, any book from Deepak Chopra, Byron Katie, Eckhart tolle or the Dalay Lama will do better.

Exraordinary!

A wonderful guide to Meditation! Very deep and mindblowing
Ancient wisdom for our time, that helps me in any situation and gives life a new value!
And a reflection on death and dying, that gave me a complete new perspective for life.

Wisdom to make peace with the fear of death

The tibetan book of living and dying really was a profound journey into the wisdom of dying,
revealing the common fears that oftentimes people find themselves surrounded with.

I really found much insight in both, the history and knowledge of the traditions approach to living and dying as well as the meditations themselves.
Right after finishing the audiobook I went for a silent meditation retreat with Hridaya Yoga in Mazunte in Mexico, where some of the teachings of the tibetan book of living nd dying were taught in lectures and meditations, which allowed for me to integrate the teachings even more.

I would have wished through to get a PDF alongside with the audiobook for the different practices and traditions explained in the book, which would have made it easier to investigate into further research.
