Buddhist Way of Accompanying the Dying

In a group, we explore the Buddhist perspective of aging, dying and death. Through the study of and meditation on the Tibetan Book of the Dead “Bardo Thödol”, we prepare for conscious dying. We clarify how the external conditions can be concretely shaped to promote spiritual awakening in the dying process. From this we will compile a handbook with useful information, examples and recommendations on patient instruction forms, medical and nursing care, facilities and services, and spiritual guidance. We train ourselves to give counsel and accompany others as well.
The group would like to make their results available to all interested parties.
