Description
Death and the afterlife have inspired artists for millennia, from the Ancient Egyptian guides to the underworld to the Bardo Thodol of Tibet (a guide to embracing enlightenment); from the myths and ballgames of Mesoamerica, to the memento mori, hellish tumults and heavenly visions of Christian Europe.
Stanislav Grof explains how these fantastic and compelling visions gave rise to the art of “dying before dying,” and explains how research on human consciousness may bring us closer than ever to the realms beyond death.
