The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying- The Spiritual Classic - International Bestseller- Revised and

4 stars (Skilled Overview Of Tibetan Principles But Doesn't Make Death Any Less A Thing Of Horror To My Western Mind) - This is a well-researched book that covers its topic with a professional thoroughness. I admire the author's devotion to a subject that makes most of us, especially in the twenty-first century United States, cringe. I have nothing negative to say about his Buddhist slant here and think he describes the Book of the Dead and its passages well. "In the Occident, where death is much feared, the art of dying is little practiced." How very true. All that said, despite Gaffney's seeming love of death (not just acceptance, but real embracing love) the state of biological conclusion seems horrific to me. Were I a believer in an afterlife, if I could just have faith, or better yet, proof, then I might subscribe to his "death is an opportunity to evolve" view, but all I can see in death is an ending filled with pain, the cause of grief, the separation of loved ones. I tried to wrap my mind around the views herein and I do find interest in contemplating another cosmology's take on the ending of a physical (chapter in) life, but to me, death remains a concept steeped in horror no matter how deeply I have tried to grasp for a way to hope that we might be reborn, either on this earth or in another plane, the bardo, Heaven...anyplace. This book ought to become the edition of choice for those who seek an accomodating starting point for one of religion's greatest texts. My lack of feeling for its tenets in no way means I do not regard this as a fine book that might help many people study Tibetan viewpoints or find peace in the inescapable fact that is death. Pace. 4 stars (Sogal is a fine teacher) - the mayor problems with the "unenlighned" is, that there mind is not clear. They mix "moral" with "neurotic thoughts" , actually the mix evertything and the unenlighned females are mixing it more. That is one of the mayor messages of Sogal. Finally the "great spiri...

Over the Edge- Death in Grand Canyon

4 stars (Interesting book) - The book was very interesting. The only downfall was that it was repetitive at times, however still very interesting. Enjoyed reading 4 stars (A Gripping Read) - This book contains gripping accounts of all known deaths in the Grand Canyon. The intro contains a warning that the stories may keep you up past your normal bedtime--I found this to be true! The book is thick, does drag a little in the middle, and contains some grammatical errors, but these are overshadowed by the enthralling nature of true accounts of fatalities and near fatalities in the grandest of the seven natural wonders. Keith W. Meyers 4 stars (Over the Edge: Death in Grand Canyon) - This is an excellent and comprehensive summary of fatal accidents of all kinds in Grand Canyon, including airplane crashes. The causes are clearly described in all cases. Some of the accounts are rather repetitive, but that is inevitable in such an inclusive book. ...
