Can consideration of death make our lives more meaningful? Can we use our state of mind at the moment of death to affect what kind of rebirth we will take in our next life?

Explore the process of death and rebirth and its impact on how we live our lives. Be guided in skillful reflection on the meaning of death and what to expect at the time of death. Learn how accepting the reality of death and preparing for it helps us fulfill our purpose in life, resolve conflicts, and develop skills to help both ourselves and others at the time of death. Come to understand how eventually, through Buddhist practice, we can overcome death altogether.

Discovering Buddhism: Awakening the limitless potential of your mind, achieving all peace and happiness
Ven. Tenzin Legtsok

Venerable Tenzin Legtsok is in the eighteenth year of the Geshe Studies Program at Sera Jey Monastic University in South India where he studies classic Indian Buddhist treatise and their Tibetan commentaries in the tradition of ancient Nalanda University. He has been ordained as a Buddhist monk since 2001.

Born in Virginia, USA in 1973, he obtained a Bachelor of Arts from Kenyon College in 1995. The question, “What makes for the most happy and meaningful life,” which compelled him to major in philosophy during college gradually led to his study of meditation and philosophy with teachers among the exiled Tibetan communities in India and Nepal from 1999 until the present.

For the past ten years he has tried to make basic Buddhist teachings accessible to various audiences in India and the US through lectures, essays, and meditation instruction.
