Introduction to the Revised Edition
IT IS NOW TEN YEARS SINCE the Tibetan Book of Living and Dying was first published.
In this book, I endeavored to share something of the wisdom of the tradition I grew up in. I sought to show the practical nature of its ancient teachings, and the ways in which they can help us at every stage of living and dying. Many people, over the years, had urged me to write this book. They said that it would help relieve some of the intense suffering that so many of us go through in the modern world.

It is no wonder that there is today such a tremendous thirst for the compassion and wisdom that spiritual teachings can offer.
It must have been as a reflection of this need that The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying was received with such enthusiasm around the world. At first, I was astonished: I had never expected it to have such an impact, especially since at the time of writing this book, death was still very much a subject that was shunned and ignored. Gradually, as I traveled to different countries, teaching and leading workshops and trainings based on the teachings in this book, I discovered the extent to which it had struck a chord in people's hearts. More and more individuals came up to me or wrote to tell me how these teachings had helped them through a crisis in their lives or supported them through the death of a loved one. And even though the teachings it contains may be unfamiliar, there are those who have told me they have read this book several times and keep returning to it as a source of inspiration.
