Finding Peace: 40 Introductory Lessons on Buddhism
Editor’s note: This bonus episode comes fromVistopia Roundtable, Episode 347,originally titled Why Write a Will While Still So Young?
When death arises, do you recoil in fear, know you must face it but not know where to begin, or respond another way?
Have you lost family or friends? Do you want grief to pass quickly so normal life can resume, or seek meaning and insight into life through death?
How have your ideas and attitudes toward death changed since childhood?
Recorded just after Qingming Festival, this conversation brings together Xiaxia, Cheng Qing of Relief for Life, and anthropologist Yuan Changgeng of A Guide to an Unlucky Life to discuss death.
