Books

Years ago I remember reading something about the Dalai Lama having a regular meditation in which he “practices dying”. This has always stuck with me and for whatever reason has been particularly resonant lately

Just learned he actually wrote a book “Advice on Dying” in 2003

Just got the audio version…am curious to see how practical it is based on his own meditation practice

This is a concept I’ve used in my life for a long time. But had not heard of this book yet.
