Whether our own death or that of a loved one comes first, how prepared are we, spiritually or practically? In Preparing to Die, Andrew Holecek presents a wide array of resources to help the reader address this unfinished business. Part One shows how to prepare one's mind and how to help others, before, during, and after death. The author explains how spiritual preparation for death can completely transform our relationship to the end of life, dissolving our fear and helping us to feel open and receptive to letting go in the dying process. Daily meditation practices, the stages of dying and how to work with them, and after-death experiences are all detailed in ways that will be particularly helpful for those with an interest in Tibetan Buddhism and in Tibetan approaches to conscious dying. Part Two addresses the practical issues that surround death. Experts in grief, hospice, the funeral business, and the medical and legal issues of death contribute chapters to prepare the reader for every practical concern, including advance directives, green funerals, the signs of death, warnings about the funeral industry, the stages of grief, and practical care for the dying. Part Three contains heart-advice from twenty of the best-known Tibetan Buddhist masters now teaching in the West. These brief interviews provide words of solace and wisdom to guide the dying and their caregivers during this challenging time. Preparing to Die is for anyone interested in learning how to prepare for death from a Buddhist perspective, both spiritually and practically. It is also for those who want to learn how to help someone else who is dying, both during the time of illness and death as well as after death.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death is the last thing anyone wants to talk about. This pandemic has brought it to the forefront Set up a “End of Life Plan” We always think that death won’t come knocking on our door and some people even think that by talking about death you invite it in. I have dealt with a couple of deaths in my lifetime and have learned that death does not wait for us to be ready and when someone dies the very loved ones that they leave behind are also left with a magnitude of problems in trying to sort out basic documents. The mere fact that there are over R80 million in unclaimed benefits in South Africa alone attest to the fact that many loved ones were kept in the dark about basic information. This guide serves to give your guidance in compiling your own “End of Life Plan” to show your loved ones you cared. This plan will not only help if you die, but can also be used in case of an accident or other emergency.
