First published in 1993 and now in a 2002 revised and updated edition, The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying is “an extraordinary blessing: heartfelt, wise, practical, luminous—filled with inspiring stories, skillful teachings, and the great compassionate heart of the Buddha.” —Jack Kornfield, author of
Sogyal Rinpoche
Sogyal Rinpoche was born in 1947 in Tibet and raised by one of the most revered spiritual masters of this century, Jamyang Khyentse Chkyi Lodr. With the Chinese occupation of Tibet, he went into exile with his master, who died in 1959 in Sikkim in the Himalayas. After university studies in Delhi and Cambridge, England, he acted as translator and aide to several leading Tibetan masters, and began teaching in the West in 1974. Rinpoche sees his life's task in transplanting the wisdom of Buddha to the West by offering training in the vision set out in The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. This training can enable those who follow it to understand, embody, and integrate Buddhist teachings into their everyday lives.
Rinpoche's reputation as an authority on the teachings associated with The Tibetan Book of the Dead and his dialogue with leading figures in the fields of psychology, science, and healing make him a sought-after speaker at international conferences and lectures. He travels extensively, teaching in Europe, North America, Australia, and Asia, and is the founder and spiritual director of Rigpa, a network of Buddhist centers and groups around the world.
