- **Event Description**: Death is a fact of life for all of us, but through practicing compassion and mindfulness, we can replace apprehension with comfort and graceAbout this EventIN-PERSON and ONLINEOur mind is central to our experience of life and death, so it makes sense to nurture our minds to experience more wakefulness and love.In his book, “The Great Path of Awakening” Jargon Kontrul teaches that facing death with courage, compassion, and wisdom transforms the dying experience.By embracing impermanence, practicing kindness, and nurturing awareness, we approach death not as an end but as part of the ongoing journey of the mind.Jamgon Kongtrul’s teachings help us move beyond fear and sorrow, inviting us to live and die with grace, presence, and compassion.Thoughts of death can encourage a grateful attitude toward the preciousness of life and ignite a desire for a nurturing practice of mindfulness.In the morning of retreat, we will discuss Jamgon Kongtrul’s teachings on the “5 powers” (five strategies for cultivating a successful spiritual practice) and show how they can also be important preparatory tools for facing the end of life.In the afternoon, we will use these same teachings to guide us on an imaginary journey through our own dying process.We will also hear inspiring and practical advice from Chaplain Cathy Lhamo Jackson, who has prayed at the bedsides of the dying for more than a decade. Her experiences will help us see another side of illness and change.We will end the retreat with a discussion and debriefing, with an eye toward applying these teachings in our daily lives.Please bring a vegetarian sack lunch.****About Lama TomLama Tom Broadwater became a student of Khenpo Karthar Rinpoche in1999.
