Practicing Conscious Living and Dying: Stories of the Eternal Continuum of Consciousness
by Annamaria Hemingway —
An uplifting collection of spiritually illuminating texts and powerfully thought-provoking real life stories, showing death as an integral part of life.
Modern medical advances have resulted in death and dying becoming a taboo, which leaves us feeling isolated when the inescapability of death touches our lives.
These touching observations of closeness to someone else who is dying, and personal accounts of near-death experiences and after-death communication, illustrate how coming to terms with the inevitability of death is actually a life-affirming experience. These emotionally powerful and inspirational experiences address timeless questions and help expand our limited awareness of the nature of consciousness.
They show how each of the individuals concerned has come to understand that death teaches us that the preciousness of life must be lived with a sense of purpose and meaning, as a celebration of our existence.
