What Happens When We Die

The Buddhist Perspective

with France Roy

10:30 - 11:45am, 12:15 - 1:30pm

$25, free for supporting members

So many people are experiencing grief right now and all of us will eventually have to face the loss of loved ones, as well as our own death. The Buddhist understanding of death and dying is enormously beneficial. It is based on understandings from those who have directly experienced the indestructible nature of consciousness in meditation and it has been affirmed through many generations of practitioners.

In this day course France Roy will explain the life-enhancing meditation on death. Gaining experience of this meditation will enable us to not only deal skillfully with our grief but also help those who are dying or have died. In particular it will allow us to acknowledge our own impermanence and transform the truth of our death into a life-enhancing energy that will empower us to truly make the most of our lives, to live and die joyfully and meaningfully.
