One of the greatest works created by any culture and overwhelmingly
the most significant of all Tibetan Buddhist texts in the West, The
Tibetan Book of the Dead has had a number of distinguished
translations, but none encompassed the work in its entirety. Now,
in one of the year's most important publishing events, the entire
text has not only been made available in English but in a
translation of quite remarkable clarity and beauty.
With an introductory commentary by His Holiness The Dalai Lama,
who calls this translation "an extraordinary accomplishment
undertaken with great care over many years" this complete edition
faithfully presents the insights and intentions of the original
work. It includes one of the most detailed and compelling
descriptions of the after-death state in world literature,
exquisitely written practices that can transform our experience of
daily life, guidance on helping those who are dying, and an
inspirational perspective on coping with bereavement. Translated
with the close support of leading contemporary masters, including
HH Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, and learned scholars such as Khamtrul
Rinpoche and Zenkar Rinpoche, His Holiness the Dalai Lama says, "I
hope that the profound insights contained in this work will be a
source of inspiration and support to many interested people around
the world."
