Death Business Arrangement

Everything you wanted and feared to know about death — as presented by Sadhguru, the most renowned yogi and mystic of our time.

Death is not an end.

Death is inevitable. How can one ignore such an important aspect of life while possessing a human mind? How can you avoid it and act as if you are going to live forever? How is it that, after millions of years on this planet, people still know nothing about death?

The circumstances of death matter. If good sensations multiply during the phase of separation from the body, we say you have reached paradise. If bad ones — then hell. Paradise and hell are not geography; they are human states.

If we cannot teach all people in the world to live well, then at least let us try to teach them to die well.

From a spiritual perspective, what was not achieved in life can be realized at the moment of death if approached correctly. The thing is that in this final moment, it is very easy to untie knots and rid yourself of everything you have accumulated.

If you want to take the opportunity that death represents, you cannot meet it in fear.

By fearing death, you only avoid life, but you will not avoid death.

The violence of death is determined not by what happened to the body, but by what happened inside the person.

The liberation of those deceased who lived their entire lives without awareness and did nothing for themselves depends on their children.

Whatever happens to you — illness, death, or any disaster — you can make them either a step toward self-liberation or a step toward entanglement.

A practical guide to life and death from the most renowned mystic and yogi of our time. Sadhguru explains how to interact with the inevitability of death and how to help others when necessary. The book covers all topics related to death — from ancient rituals to modern life extension technologies, richly illustrated with examples from Indian tradition and Sadhguru's personal experience.

From the perspective of yogic science, death is not an end. The circumstances of a person's death are important as they largely determine whether their future path will resemble hell or paradise. "If we cannot teach all people in the world to live well, then at least let us try to teach them to die well" — from this intention, Sadhguru birthed this book.

In the first part "Life and Death in One Breath", the author describes the basic mechanism of life and death, introducing the reader to yogic views.

In the second part "The Greatness of Death", he explains what constitutes a "good" death, how to prepare for it, and how to overcome fear. Here you will find valuable information on what can be done for the dying, how to support the departed in their afterlife journey, and how to cope with grief after losing a loved one.

In the third part "Life After Death", Sadhguru talks about incorporeal beings and their influence on living people. Key issues related to the process of reincarnation are also addressed here. Sadhguru offers practical advice on how to prepare for the birth of a child and explains why attempts to recall past lives are generally meaningless and dangerous.
