His Holiness the Dalai Lama: The Joy of Living and Dying in Peace [1997] hardback

The Dalai Lama's own Tibetan Book of Living and Dying: the third volume of the Library of Tibet series on Buddhist spiritual wisdom, His Holiness the Dalai Lama offers his teachings on death and dying - and living a meaningful life.

The Dalai Lama's gentle, accessible, and eloquently phrased teachings are one of the world's great spiritual treasures. In this beautiful presentation of Buddhist wisdom on death and dying, he offers both his own thoughts on the end of life and the matchless insights of the Buddhist tradition regarding death. With the quiet and wise simplicity that have already won the Library of Tibet a devoted readership, the Dalai Lama combines straightforward lessons on living a good life through compassion, patience, wisdom, and effort with Buddhist teachings on the impermanence of existence, the acceptance of death, and the achievement of joy, peace, and spiritual wisdom.
