This work includes a foreword by John D Morgan, Professor Emeritus
of Philosophy, Coordinator for Kings College Center for Education
about Death and Bereavement, Ontario, Canada. This practical
resource guides the reader though all aspects of the grieving
process and offers thought-provoking and inspirational advice on
support. With exercises, tips, and contacts for further assistance,
"Finding a Sacred Oasis in Grief" provides a comprehensive
understanding of this potentially difficult and complex topic. It
examines different types of grief and various approaches, along
with reference guides to particular religions and their traditions
adopting a comprehensive, multi-faith approach. Pastoral care
providers and religious leaders will find the unique, hands-on
approach invaluable, as will members of support organisations and
volunteer carers. It is also ideal for seminary and ministry
students, counsellors, therapists and other care professionals.
"Gives caregivers the tools to help dying and grieving persons face
the best and worst that life has to offer. It is the worst, because
death means the end of the attachments that make life worthwhile.
It is the best, because it shows us what is truly meaningful and
important in life. Mortality is a great gift if we have the
knowledge and the courtesy to face it." - John D Morgan, in the
Foreword.
