What is Death?

‘One of the greatest thinkers of the age’ The Dalai Lama

'One of the five saints of the 20th century' TIME magazine

Death affects us all. It casts a shadow over our lives and is something we try to put far away from us, as we continue to grapple with the enduring questions: What is death? Why do we fear it? What happens after we die? Is there anything permanent?

With his signature insight and wisdom, Krishnamurti explores the nature of death, the fear of dying, ideas of immortality and permanence, and ultimately how living, love and death are one. By meeting and understanding death, we experience a total renewal. In this state, the divide between living and dying disappears, bringing love, the end of sorrow and the possibility of a new way of living.
