Death and Transformation
In life we have two competing realities:
the everyday reality of career, identity and material security and the reality of the heart that whispers to us of some greater purpose. The heart longs for connection to that which nourishes our being.
When death confronts us, our own or that of someone close, the reality of the heart calls to us. It is an opportunity of profound importance, a chance to rediscover our essence, the nature of our being, who and why we are here. Death exposes the fragility and tenuousness of everyday life, of our whole material existence. This realization can be both shattering and ecstatic.
The stories of others help us understand and prepare for the lessons of death. The Secrets of Life and Death film series and workshops offered here, provide a safe and supportive arena for this exploration and discovery. |
