Death is a taboo in most societies in the world. But what if we have got this completely wrong? What if death was not the catastrophe it is made out to be but an essential aspect of life, rife with spiritual possibilities for transcendence? For the first time, someone is saying just that. In this unique treatise-like exposition, Sadhguru dwells extensively upon his inner experience as he expounds on the more profound aspects of death that are rarely spoken about. From a practical standpoint, he elaborates on what preparations one can make for one's death, how best we can assist someone who is dying and how we can continue to support their journey even after death. Whether a believer or not, a devotee or an agnostic, an accomplished seeker or a simpleton, this is truly a book for all those who shall die! Review: Thanks Sadhguru..I wish one day I come to Isha - I saw my father die right infront of me in the ambulance and I couldn't do anything and there are many like me who must be unaware of what death is untill they see it themselves or someone very close to them die. You can prepare for an exam or competition, how can you prepare for Death? No one teaches you about Death. This is one topic where one cannot pull religion in between because it happens to all.. doesn't spare anybody..we burn the body & you bury it, what's the difference? Just like Sadhguru says that we were like dead before being born and we will be dead for a long time after we die, in the middle we live for just a small amount of time so we should live it consciously. I have so many questions that no one can answer, not even Google will help me this time.. Just like how in the YouTube videos, the beauty with which Sadhguru explains and clarifies every question of ours, I am 150% sure that all my answers regarding Death will be answered.. Thank You Sadhguru for everything that you are doing for us. I will post a re-edit/update later on this review after I get the book and I'm done reading with it.. can't wait Update as on 09/06/2021: I promised to write the update on my experience of reading this treasure. I found answers to my many unanswered questions just for example, after the death of my father, right from the day1 people started telling me to be very careful and cautious for the next 1 year, they said that you can be in great danger plz be careful for just this 1year,, I found this very offending because suddenly all these people have started projecting my father as the probable cause of my harm, the same person who nurtured and took care of me now wants to harm me just because he is dead? This bothered me so much.. after reading this book I got the answer as to with what intent people were saying me what they were saying. I would Share 1 more instance of my unanswered question getting it's answer from this book. After the death of my dad, people "warned" me to never ever go "inside" any Pran-Praristhit mandir (a consecrated temple), this was one of the worst part of my experience, because I am a kind of person who goes to temples, many times when I come across any temple I just go inside & unconsciously bow down and go back to my work. But now they told me to never ever go to a temple untill 1 year is over, it kept reminding of the worst loss a son could have but I couldn't help it, for 1 full yr I had to go through this torture, I wanted answers as to why they told me so? This book gave me answers. Some other common rituals of which the explanation I didn't know, for example why the male members shave their head and why it is never good to wear the clothes of the deceased and why it's recommended to donate it to different people. There are numerous instances like this, but I don't want to go on bcoz it will be too long. These suggestions (which felt like rude instructions) from relatives and other people didn't come from their clarity, I agree to that, but they were not wrong either in some way, it's that I found out that the "1 year" time business was just to be on a safe side because no one knew for how long a particular thing needs to be done so they said 1 year 1 year. Also I would add 1 final thing before I end, all the experience I wrote here was not a fancy phase for me, only if someone who has experienced death of their near and dear ones can understand what I am talking about, what those people who live on after their loved one's demise has to go through. Shiv Shambhu 🙏 Review: Deep and insightful - Talks about practical and spiritual aspect of death and life. The science appears too tiny after reading such a book.

Thought provoking
It is fresh and clean perspective, mostly it rely on heavy spirituality rather than evidences. If you're looking for a scientific reason then this is not the book. For me it's insightful and helped reduce the fear around death.

Brilliant book, but with a lot of fill-In gaps!
Sadguru has perhaps taken the safe route while writing a book on death! I personally feel that, either he should not have written the book or taken a direct approach and written everything bluntly. Somewhere, Sadguru was trying to take the middle path by avoiding many unpleasant things ( for many readers), about death and post-death, that are given in the Garuda Purana. While his other books are brilliant and very knowledgeable for a seeker, this particular book , for me, was very incomplete, unless of course, Sadguru decides on a sequel as part-2.

Never miss to read this
As it says this is for everyone who shall die, unimaginable amount of knowledge has been poured and it's very very rare and difficult to get to know even small amount of things what is there in this, if you are reading here and reading this buy and read without a second thought

It’s like watching 10000 videos of Sadhguru in one book
If you don’t know Sadhguru, well go see some of he’s videos on YouTube before buying this book. I’m not a book reader btw! I never read anything. I feel like all the books are just a reflection of people’s mind, but this book it’s a revelation. I mean, it’s beyond and beyond. If you already know him, there’s a lot of things that you won’t find on he’s YouTube videos that he actually explains in details in this book, so just buy it! And don’t worry about the 1-2-3 stars that people are giving, if I would have read this book a couple years ago, I would have give a 1-2-3 stars, because you have to be in a certain state of receptivity to actually gasp what he is explaining. Same if you’re watching he’s videos! But now I’m just speechless, best book ever !!! Better to read this than all the religious rubbish books out there lol

El título lo dice todo. ¡Atrévete! No te decepcionarás.
¡Este libro te desafía al extremo! Es el primero de sus libros que leo (los que han leído todos comentan que éste libro es el único que ha escrito, el resto son recolecciones de sus satsangs). Habla de la muerte en TODOS sus aspectos. Menciona que ninguna otra cultura ha honrado este proceso como la suya y por todo lo que explica en su libro estoy sumamente de acuerdo. Habla de lo natural y necesaria que es, y de nuestras compulsiones por evitar lo que es algo tan natural. Habla del proceso de morir, como se van desprendiendo las energías sutiles cuando esto ocurre (y las describe con cierto detalle). Menciona porque no recomienda el suicidio y las consecuencias que se desprenden de esto. Habla de lo necesario que es prepararse para la muerte, las diferentes prácticas que existen para esto y los rituales necesarios. La naturaleza del duelo y cuanto es lo adecuado. Durante todo el libro hace mención a los temas que hemos visto en los videos en internet como no orientar nuestra cabeza al norte cuando dormimos (en el caso de la muerte lo recomienda), el tema de larga vida, las doce solaciones, las 1008 lunaciones y lo acompaña de varios chistes lo cual hace ameno leer su libro. La parte final de su libro menciona los temas como fantasmas, las reencarnaciones y menciona brevemente sus últimas 4 reencarnaciones (las cuales considera las más importantes) y comenta porque tuvo que volver a reencarnar en esta (quedaron temas no resueltos en su vida previa que ha tenido que vivir una más para resolverla), menciona lo inútil que es mirar a las vidas pasadas – lo cual era algo que yo apoyaba sin saber su opinión – e incluso menciona que tener vidas iluminadas no asegura el no retorno, todo depende de lo que se quiera lograr en determinada experiencia humana. Comenta que la vida se manifiesta y se expresa con base en tendencias y no en nuestros pensamientos ni sentimientos porque estos cambian de un día para otro, por lo cual la vida y la naturaleza trabajan en función de tendencias. En el penúltimo capítulo menciona que solo una mujer se ha dado cuenta que él no está aquí (lo conoció en su vida previa). Sadhguru menciona que creía haber cubierto todas sus huellas, pero que una mujer se haya dado cuenta que no está aquí, demuestra que no. Menciona que solo extendió su vida previa. Al final del libro ofrece la liberación si te atreves a esto. Esta puede ser tu última vida si lo quieres. Recuerda que los miedos a la muerte surgen de creer que eres tu cuerpo, cuando la verdad es que el cuerpo es algo que tienes y no algo que eres. Sadhguru sostiene que no sabemos vivir porque nuestro sentido de vivir está basado en lo que tenemos y en compararnos y sentir satisfacción con lo que carecen otros. Vivir consiste en que pase lo que pase, lo exterior no te define, para eso estás tú. Y aunque creas que has sabido vivir en general, el humano no sabe morir. Él ofrece esto último si sabes escuchar y tomar el camino de lo Divino ¿cuál es el camino de lo divino? Es saber que no hay individualidad. La mayor ilusión de este mundo es precisamente la separación cuando lo único cierto es que la individualidad no existe cuando te experimentas como divino y lo divino no tiene límites. Se los recomiendo 100%. Espero que pronto publiquen el título traducido al español.
