About this listen
Sogyal Rinpoche presents a radically new vision of living and dying. He shows how to go beyond our fear and denial of death to discover what it is in us that survives death and is changeless. Rinpoche explains simple yet powerful practices that listeners can use to transform their lives, prepare for death, and help the dying.
©1992 Rigpa Fellowship (P)1995 Random House AudiobooksCritic Reviews
"As a guide to the Tibetan tradition and its insights into life and death, Sogyal Rinpoche is without peer. . . .Sogyal Rinpoche. . .has delivered the Tibetan equivalent of The Divine Comedy." ( New York Times Book Review)

Such a quintessential book
This book is amazing, however the recording is a little hot (distorted), making listening for a long time a little taxing on the ears and head.

Perfect accompaniment to the book.
This is a great resource and adjunct to The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying. Great for listening to when commuting, walking, or for quiet periods of reflection and study. The audio book is read by Sogyal Rinpoche himself, as well as John Cleese of Monty Python fame, and some other suitable and appropriate voices. There is quite a lot of Tibetan Buddhist Wisdom presented here, so depending on where you are on your journey on the path, beginner, curious, student, non student, or for those wanting some wisdom to get them through some difficult life events, or the loss of a loved one, there is much wisdom and heart food to be had here. But don't take my advice at face value. Try it for yourself. As the Buddha always said, don't take what I say as the truth, try it out in your own life. I do highly recommended it though. :-)

Interesting content poor recording
If interested in these topics - the content and views are good. The recording is the worst I’ve ever heard on Audible.

Started off good. ..
I was quite enjoying this until I googled Sogyal Rinpoche. After reading about author, I could not go on to finish the rest.

For those seeking a deeper spiritual practise
This book shares insights into what we can all do now to enrich our lives (spiritually) and prepare for death, as well as help those who are soon to pass, at their time of passing and in the afterlife.

Interesting book
I found this book an interesting listen especially the parts discussing the afterlife. I would recommend this book for anyone going through the loss of a loved one or anybody interested in the Tibetan Buddhist views of the afterlife.
