How to Live and Die: The Transformative Power of Meditating on Impermanence - Paperback
by Lama Zopa Rinpoche (Author), Gordon McDougall (Editor)
In this authoritative account of one of the most important practices in Tibetan Buddhism, Lama Zopa shows us how facing the reality of death and impermanence can transform and enrich our life.
What death is, how we die, what minds we need at death and what happens after death--only by knowing about death and rebirth can we actually fully understand what life is and so learn how to live fully.Lama Zopa Rinpoche was one of the most internationally renowned masters of Tibetan Buddhism, working and teaching ceaselessly on almost every continent.

He passed away in 2023.
