Sister Dang Nghiem: Live Beautifully, Die Beautifully, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

A luminous guide to aging, illness, and loss---field-tested Zen wisdom and intimate life stories that teach us how to live with clarity, courage, and compassion

These are field notes from a life lived in radical presence. In this tender, deeply insightful book, a Buddhist nun who has spent decades living a life of contemplation offers a compassionate, practical, profoundly human exploration of the Five Remembrances, core Zen meditations that transform fear into freedom and empower us to meet aging, sickness, and death with grounded grace. Writing from the edge of impermanence---where illness, aging, and loss reveal what matters most---Sister Dang Nghiem meets readers in the raw places where change becomes unavoidable and illuminates how impermanence becomes an invitation to live more intentionally, honestly, and beautifully.
With spare language and a keen understanding of life's vulnerability, the author accompanies readers through life's thresholds as they navigate uncertainty, grief, and the universal questions: How do I live well? How do I love well? How do I die without regret?
