Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Renowned for centuries as a classic of Buddhist wisdom and religious thought, THE TIBETAN BOOK OF THE DEAD, more recently, has become highly influential in the Western world for its psychological insights into the processes of death and dying â" and what they can teach us about the ways in which we live our lives. Composed in the eight century, it is intended as an aid to preparing for the trials and transformations of the afterworld. Its profound message is that the art of dying is as important as the art of living. Drawing on Tibetan spiritual traditions, it shows the workings of the mind in its various manifestations â" terrifying and comforting, wrathful and beautiful â" which appear more clearly after death in the consciousness of the deceased. By recognizing these manifestations, one can attain a state of enlightenment, both in this existence and in the existence to come. Glossary, Essential Bibliography. 278p.…

paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
