In this deeply personal exposition, Robert Aho reveals his Near Death Experience in the form of both prose and poetry. This work is a vivid description of the journey from the bright light we experience at the time of death, back into daily life. It is also 112 poetic meditations for awakening into wisdom light, within every moment of our lives. The author maintains that we never actually leave timeless luminosity.
This Dzogchen Buddhist perspective of the author’s Near Death Experience was so beautiful and fascinating. Certainly the compassion and clarity that came from the experience is helped by a Buddhist vocabulary- so few English words can describe the experience. More than anything, one feels how expansive reality is- waaaay beyond what we know as “real life”. This helped me know there is so much beyond death. So grateful for the author’s beautiful and finely crafted poems.
