Life is a Near Death Experience: Skills for Illness, Aging, Dying, and Loss (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798503933680)

"I have this saying: 'Don't worry, everything is out of control.' Once you really and truly get that, you will stop worrying, you will stop being fearful, because those negative feelings won't change the existential situation we are all in."Life is a Near Death Experience focuses primarily on illness and a handful of skillful ways to reduce the emotional suffering that can occur in its presence. In these pages you will learn healthy, mindful choices about how to react to illness, and the prospect of death.The last section of the book gives a Buddhist context for the larger view of reality. If the first section helps you, that is all that matters. If you are curious about the Buddhist view of life, the second section may aid you as well.Ajahn Sona is the Abbot of Birken Forest Buddhist Monastery (Pali name: 'Sitavana') located in British Columbia, Canada, and the author of Bloom: Buddhist Reflections on Serenity and Love.
