A magnificent achievement. In its power to touch the heart, to awaken consciousness, [The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying] is an inestimable gift.San Francisco Chronicle A newly revised and updated edition of the internationally bestselling spiritual classic, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, written by Sogyal Rinpoche, is the ultimate introduction to Tibetan Buddhist wisdom. An enlightening, inspiring, and comforting manual for life and death that the New York Times calls, The Tibetan equivalent of [Dantes] The Divine Comedy, this is the essential work that moved Huston Smith, author of The Worlds Religions, to proclaim, I have encountered no book on the interplay of life and death that is more comprehensive, practical, and wise.
