Description

Even if a person lives a hundred years, he will die eventually. This is the
natural cycle of life and death, which was determined before we were born.
Nonetheless, when we face this final parting from life, how many of us can
do so without sorrow? How many of us are able to thoroughly penetrate the
truth of life and death and let go? A human life is like a drop of dew on
grass, like the wind, frost, or lightning. Although we might understand the
inevitability of death, we still adamantly refuse to discuss it. This book
presents Dharma Master Cheng Yen's teachings on life and death. Through it,
she hopes to expel superstitions about living and dying and bring clarity
to our confusion regarding life and death, so that we can free ourselves of
afflictions and fear regarding the natural course of life.
