What will happen to me while dying, at death and afterwards? Posted 7 Sep 2017
Presentation by the Pure Land Project
Where: Hayagriva Buddhist Centre, 64 Banksia Tce, Kensington, 6023
Have you ever wondered what will happen to you during your dying and death? What will you feel; will your experience be frightening or blissful?
Over three Thursday evenings in September we will introduce the Tibetan Buddhist perspective on these questions. We will start with a guided meditation, then open the meeting to a discussion on the topic. The evening will conclude with a short presentation on the proposed centre for those who wish for a spiritual focus during their last weeks, called the Pure Land of the Indestructible Buddha.
Presentations will be made by Len Warren and members of the Pure Land Committee.
The aim is to start at 7:30 pm and finish about 8:30 pm. Entry is by donation.
The program is as follows:
14 September 7.30 to 8.30pm

The Tibetan Buddhist tradition is rich with teachings about dying, death and the intermediate state or bardo between this life and the next. In this series we will only touch the surface of this storehouse of wisdom. We also want to introduce the project to build a centre – the Pure Land of the Indestructible Buddha – that will meet some of the needs of the dying identified in the teachings by Lama Zopa Rinpoche.
