http://www.DavidKessler.org

Extractions: spiritual lessons of everyday existence. Is this really how I want to live my life? Each one of us at some point asks that question. The tragedy is not that life is short, but that we often see only in hindsight what really matters. In this life-changing book, and David Kessler guide us through the lessons we need to learn so that we can live life to its fullest in every moment. Many years of working with the dying have shown them that certain lessons come up over and over again. Some of these lessons are enormously difficult to master but even the attempt to understand them can be deeply rewarding. Here, in fourteen accessible chapters, from The Lesson of Love to The Lesson of Happiness, the authors reveal the truth about our fears, our hopes, our relationships, and above all, about the grandness of who we really are. The book features lessons on living, including advice on living life fully after loss from Christopher Landon (screenwriter and Michael Landon's son) and from Berry Berenson Perkins, (photographer and wife of Anthony Perkins)

In Australia, we have discover that it is an easy process as long as the basis is covered. This include an understanding of the Hmong funeral, in a general form, and taking account the dynamic of the Hmong family and community facing such a crisis. The following information is drawn from one of our inf. sheet for health professional. I hope that this information assist you. 1. Understand the funeral. To have a proper ceremony is of great importance to the Hmong, for as a result the soul will prosper in the afterworld. It is preferable to die in one's own home or, in the home of same subclan. Back home in Asia, including China, the Hmong have no funeral home or undertakers. When a person dies, the corpse is kept inside the house, after having properly dressed up, tied and laid on a stretcher. Soon after death, the person is given various paraphernalia to protect its souls from natural elements and malevolent spirits during the trip to the ancestral world, including a mature rooster is killed for showing the way. This is followed by a session of pipe music by the name of "expiring chant" (qeej tu siav) and drum. This is to show the souls how to reach the other dead ancestors who are believed to live together in the other world. The souls have to thank all household spirits and all other spirits in different localities where he had lived.

Living Trusts A living trust is a legal device to assist people who want to avoid some of the problems and costs involved with probate. A living trust is not for everyone. If you think a living trust may be right for you, speak with an attorney and discuss all your options. First, however, take a look at some of the living trust scams that are targeting senior consumers. Living Trust Scams Funerals When a loved one dies, grieving family members and friends often are confronted with dozens of decisions about the funeral-all of which must be made quickly and often under great emotional duress. What kind of funeral should it be? What funeral provider should you use? Should you bury or cremate the body, or donate it to science? What are you legally required to buy? What other arrangements should you plan? And, as callous as it may sound, how much is it all going to cost?

Frontline: Dreams Of Tibet: Understanding Tibetan Buddhism: Death And Dying
Even the cells of our bodies are constantly being born and dying. All of us are inexorably moving toward physical death in every moment.
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/tibet/understand/dying.html

Extractions: According to traditional stories of the life of the Buddha, he first decided to leave his home and seek enlightenment after encountering the "four sights"-(I) a sick person, (2) an old person, (3) a corpse, and (4) a world renouncer. The first three epitomize the sufferings to which ordinary beings are subjects and the last indicates that one can transcend them through meditation and religious practice. The greatest problem of all is death, the final cessation of all our hopes and dreams, our successes and failures, our loves, hates, worries, and plans. From its inception, Buddhism has stressed the importance of death, since awareness of death is what prompted the Buddha to perceive the ultimate futility of worldly concerns and pleasures. Realizing that death is inevitable for a person who is caught up in worldly pleasures and attitudes, he resolved to renounce the world and devote himself to finding a solution to this most basic of existential dilemmas. After years of diligent and difficult practice he became enlightened, and through this he transcended death. His life provides his followers with a model to emulate, and even today Buddhist teachers strongly advise their students to meditate on death and impermanence, since they are powerful counteragents to short-sighted concern with the present life and one's own transitory happiness. Buddhist teachers also point out that according to tradition Buddha began his teaching career discussing death and impermanence in his first sermon on the four noble truths, and he also ended his career with teachings on death and impermanence, which indicates how important they are in Buddhist teaching and practice.

Extractions: M y mother died of cancer. She had been told of the cancer about 7 months before her death. During that time we called in hospice and I read every book or pamphlet that I was given to prepare myself for what lay ahead. I believed if one tried hard enough any death could be peaceful. Hospice could control pain and our job as a family was to meet her needs. But I wasn't prepared. There was so much that no one ever told me. And because there were components of her death that were not peaceful I was left feeling as if I could have done better. When my mother's death was at hand, things happened not described in any of the materials I had been given to read. The experience was not peaceful. She didn't see people who had already died or talk of feeling ready. We did not have that one last wonderful talk. Instead she was agitated, restless, anxious, and spoke of nightmares. One evening I located a support group on the internet for people who were going to lose or had lost a loved one. Groping to make sense of my mother's suffering I told the group of my mother's death. They shared their experiences with me. I can't tell you why or when my healing began but only that hearing others' stories did this for me.
