Condizione: New.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Someone you love is dying. Or you have been given a diagnosis. Or you are sitting at a deathbed with no idea what to do. Forty-Nine Days was written for that moment, and for the preparation that must begin long before the crisis arrives.This book brings together what four Buddhist traditions have learned about dying with what contemporary neuroscience is only beginning to confirm. The dying brain remains active far longer than we assume. The dying person can still hear, still register whether the room is calm or frightened, still be reached by a familiar voice. This has practical consequences for everyone who will ever sit at a deathbed.The four traditions each offer a distinct answer. Tibetan Vajrayana provides a detailed map of the dying process and practices for the forty-nine days that follow. Jodo Shinshu offers a complete release from the requirement to perform at the moment of death. Korean Zen kido is sustained collective chanting for the dead, giving grief somewhere to go. Theravada offers rigorous mind-training centred on the direct encounter with impermanence that anyone can begin today.The author has practiced in all four traditions, sat with dying teachers, and trained in both neuroscience and contemplative practice. This is not a comparative religion textbook. It is a practitioner's synthesis written for anyone who will one day be dying or sitting with someone who is. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. We do not know how to die. Modern secular culture has removed death from the centre of life and left us with almost nothing to draw on when it arrives.This book draws on two sources rarely brought together: contemporary neuroscience on what the dying brain actually does, and the accumulated wisdom of Buddhist traditions that have been thinking carefully about death for two and a half millennia. The dying person is still present, still receiving, still being shaped by what surrounds them. The traditions have known this for centuries. The neuroscience is now confirming it.Four traditions are examined in depth. Tibetan Vajrayana provides a detailed map of the dying process and specific practices for those who sit with the dying and the recently dead. Japanese Pure Land offers a complete release from the requirement to perform at the moment of death. Korean Zen kido is sustained collective chanting for the dead, giving grief something active to do across the forty-nine days. Theravada trains the mind directly in the perceptual encounter with impermanence. Chinese Pure Land and Zen death culture are explored as additional perspectives, each offering something the others do not.Written from the inside, by a practitioner with more than two decades across these traditions. No prior Buddhist knowledge required. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.…
