Author: Blackman, Sushila

This collection offers 108 stories recounting the ways in which Hindu, Tibetan Buddhist, and Zen masters have confronted their own deaths. By directly presenting the grace, clarity, and even humor with which great spiritual teachers have met the end of their days, Sushila Blackman provides inspiration and nourishment to anyone truly concerned with the fundamental issues of life and death. Blackman was present at the ashram in India when her own teacher Muktananda died; she herself was diagnosed with advanced stage lung cancer only months away from the completion of this book, and died a short time after.
