Very thought provoking
A thought provoking book that allows one to confront the face of death and accept it. Most people believe themselves to be immortal until the inevitable loss of a loved one happens. This book changes that once scary part of our reality cycle into something that helps us live a more mindful life. The exercise of seeing yourself go through your last days is alone worth the price of this book. I'm young so it's hard for me to buy into all that "love everybody" message but I suspect that's a fault of mine not the authors. A very well written book that is a must read for everyone.

Moving and Touches the Heart
Michael Murphy reminds us that underneath our personality, roles in life, and even the experience of death is eternal life. Here, we are transcended from self-centered awareness into life-centered awareness. In this dimension of our being, our soul is revealed. The connections made on the level of soul in our relationships create invisible bonds forever linking us as children of the Comos. Thanks Michael Murphy for your insight into the sacred human path to love. -- Samuel Oliver, author of, WHAT THE DYING TEACH US: LESSONS ON LIVING.

the best book on the subject in years
It was very good to read this book filled with helpfull ideas and fresh approaches to ancient themes. As a human being I recognized many of the situations that were described and as a doctor I felt proud that it was one of us who wrote this book.
