Drawing on Tibetan Buddhist teachings, Lief highlights how these universal moments hold great potential for spiritual awakening and wisdom. The dissolution from life, she explains, offers an opening of mind — a vast space where clarity and connection can emerge as the ego’s fixations fall away. This talk invites a deep reflection on how we can train our minds to navigate life’s transitions with greater presence and openness.
This teaching is excerpted from “Death, Love & Wisdom,” a self-paced course for relating to death and dying with fearless compassion.
