Death

A practical guide to life and death from the most famous mystic and yogi of our time. Sadhguru talks about 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, extensively 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 further journey will be akin to hell or heaven. "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's book was born. 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 a "good" death is, 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 on their post-mortem 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 impact on living people. Key issues related to the process of reincarnation are also addressed. Sadhguru offers practical advice on how to prepare for the birth of a child and explains why attempts to remember past lives are, as a rule, meaningless and dangerous.
