Voyage to the heart of Tibetan Buddhism with this definitive audio workshop – taught by Sogyal Rinpoche, author of the international bestseller The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. Born into a spiritual community relatively untouched by Western traditions, and later educated at Cambridge, Sogyal Rinpoche is uniquely qualified to bring these ancient Buddhist teachings into our lives today. He writes: "Enlightenment is real. It is something not exotic, not fantastic, not for an elite, but for all of humanity."

"Only two things in life are certain," he begins, "that each of us will die, and that no one knows how or when. This impermanence is the very essence of existence. Yet in the West, we live life as if it will go on forever. We talk about the need to "take care of ourselves." But, Rinpoche asks, "which self: the one that is going to die, or the one that will survive?" Guiding us with meticulous scholarship, Sogyal Rinpoche addresses this question with lively humor and an uncommon knowledge of religious scriptures. Tibetan Wisdom for Living and Dying is a landmark recording: over nine hours of direct teachings from this incarnate lama and master of dzogchen (literally "great perfection," the esoteric heart of Tibetan Buddhism).
