Who Dies?

Who Dies? – Stephen Levine

While many books have dealt with the “stages of dying,” and particularly the stages of acceptance of death, this is the first to demonstrate how to open the immensity of living with death. WHO DIES? shows us how to participate fully in life as the perfect preparation for whatever may come next, be it sorrow or joy, loss or gain, death or a new wonderment at life.

“Stephen’s work is magic. His work with the grieving and dying is amongst the most skillful and compassionate that I am aware of.”
— Elisabeth Kiibler-Ross

“Because WHO DIES? is rooted in our collective intuitive wisdom, gleaned from a quiet mind, it is a definite departure from the plethora of books which the new dying movement has spawned. This book has addressed itself to the many aspects of the dying process with refreshing insight, candor, and lightness. It invites us to look directly at ‘what is’, with clarity and without judgment. It divests the incredible melodrama called ‘death’ of its frightful power, supplanting fear with calm, simple, compassionate understanding.”
— from the Preface by Ram Dass

Stephen Levine is a poet and teacher of meditation, who has worked extensively with Ram Dass and Elisabeth Kubler-Ross and is now directing the Hanuman Foundation Dying Project and acting as a consultant to many hospital and meditation groups throughout the U.S.A.
He is the co-author (with Ram Dass) of Grist for the Mill, and the author of A Gradual Awakening.

Who Dies? is the first book to show the reader how to open to the immensity of living with death, to participate fully in life as the perfect preparation for whatever may come next. The Levines provide calm compassion rather than the frightening melodrama of death.
