Dear friend, Most people consider the moment of someone’s passing to be a time of sorrow. But Paramhansa Yogananda said: “Death is really beautiful. It is an ecstasy for it removes the burden of the body and frees the soul of all pain springing from body identification. . . . From joy people are born; for joy they live; in joy they melt at death. . . . It is really freedom, an entry into another, higher life.” Our latest release, Transitioning in Grace: A Yogi’s Approach to Death and Dying by Nalini Graeber, illustrates exquisitely the essence of death as described by Yogananda. Through true accounts of how longtime yogis have left their bodies, Transitioning in Grace shows us that death is not something sad and painful which we should fear, but a joyous experience—filled with beauty, power, light, and grace—and something to be celebrated. Death can teach us so much about life, as dying can teach us so much about living. Those beautiful and important lessons are contained in this book. Whether you are helping a loved one who is leaving this world, or someone who will soon make this transition, or a truth seeker who wants to gain deep spiritual wisdom from this sacred experience, this book is for you. It has the potential to profoundly change your life. |
