<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Reflecting the insights and intentions of the original work, this text includes one of the most detailed and compelling descriptions of the after-death state and practices that transform the experience of daily life and the process of dying.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>One of the greatest works created by any culture and overwhelmingly the most significant of all Tibetan Buddhist texts in the West, <b>The Tibetan Book of the Dead</b> has had a number of distinguished translations, but none encompassed the work in its entirety. Now, in one of the year's most important publishing events, the entire text has not only been made available in English but in a translation of quite remarkable clarity and beauty. <p>With an introductory commentary by His Holiness The Dalai Lama, who calls this translation an extraordinary accomplishment undertaken with great care over many years this complete edition faithfully presents the insights and intentions of the original work. It includes one of the most detailed and compelling descriptions of the after-death state in world literature, exquisitely written practices that can transform our experience of daily life, guidance on helping those who are dying, and an inspirational perspective on coping with bereavement. Translated with the close support of leading contemporary masters, including HH Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, and learned scholars such as Khamtrul Rinpoche and Zenkar Rinpoche, His Holiness the Dalai Lama says, I hope that the profound insights contained in this work will be a source of inspiration and support to many interested people around the world.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>This new translation of The Tibetan Book of the Dead is a tremendous accomplishment. -<b>Francesca Fremantle</b>, <b>Buddhadarma magazine</b><p>Profound and unique, it is one of the great treasures of wisdom in the spiritual heritage of humanity. -<b>Sogyal Rinpoche</b>, Author of the <b>Tibetan Book of Living and Dying</b></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Gyurme Dorje, Ph.D., is a leading scholar of the Nyingma tradition of Tibetan Buddhism.<br><p>Thupten Jinpa, Ph.D., is the senior translator to His Holiness The Dalai Lama and president of the Institute of Tibetan Classics.</p>
