About the event
We would like to invite you to join us for our annual event Embracing Death and Dying: A Celebration of Life Through Reflection on Death', organised by the Samye Dzong London Bardo Group.
This is an opportunity to explore and reflect on death and dying through a number of talks and workshops hosted by excellent speakers.
To give you an idea of what to expect on the day, below are some of the topics covered in our previous events:
- The role of hospices in caring for the dying
- What happens as we die?
- Wills and probate: the nitty-gritties of dying
- Dying well in Buddhism
- The role of the chaplain
- The modern funeral director: a holistic approach
- The stages of death: a Buddhist perspective
- The origins and benefits of Death Cafes
You are welcome to come along for all or part of the day, which is open to all the family and is free. Our previous events were very popular and we would like to welcome you again this year after the long hiatus of the years of lockdown. The day is rounded off with a light offering and prayers to remember loved ones.
Our Tibetan Tearoom will be open throughout the day.
Full details of the schedule and details of speakers for the day will be updated on our website closer to the time.
