Peaceful Living - Peaceful Dying Course

Learn the Buddhist way of developing a peaceful mind for daily life and for the time of death. Learn how Buddhists prepare for death and for the time after. This course with Venerable Khadro will also provide you with tools on how to compassionately and skillfully talk about death, support others on their death process and prepare yourself for your own peaceful passing.

We will also cover subjects such as the different stages, dissolution’s, and internal and external signs that occur during the death process. If there is one certain thing in life, is death, and it can come anytime, it can be a beautiful process, if we are prepared for it.

During this course we will cover topics such as:

Developing a peaceful mind for daily life
Death for a Buddhist
How to support others during their death process
How to prepare yourself for your own death.
The death process & meaningful living through thought transformation
