The Promise of Death

UNDERSTANDING LIFE’S LAST GREAT CHANGE What is the greatest mystery in life? That although we see people die every day, we never believe we will die. The “theater of death” confronts us everywhere: in the newspaper, by the roadside, with the loss of a family member – and most personally as we face our own aging. And yet, how many of us see through life’s passing show to learn what death can teach us about how to live? In this engaging book, Eknath Easwaran shows how we can learn from death – and what we can do now to fully understand life’s last great change.
