Essential Wisdom
Understanding Death & Dying
with Gen Kelsang Rabgye
This course will focus on the following: common mistaken notions concerning death and fear of dying; the actual process of dying; and the special wisdom required to help those who are dying.
Gen Rabgye will be able to speak from personal experience regarding how to help the dying, as he has been close to death twice in his life.
In addition, other relevant and important wisdom understandings will be shared. Since we all must face our own mortality, we should not avoid exploring this essential wisdom.
