Dan brown's book "the lost symbol" starts like this. The secret is how to die. Since the beginning of time, the secret had always been how to die. Well now that is out of the way, it semms like a good practise to see how you will go through your death during meditation. I do have the book "tibetan book of death" which supposedly guides you how to die. Although at the present times, I am focusing on how to live.
Which ones do most reviewers agree are the most true-to-reality?
Hi Etherfish,
I know of two individuals who tell me that they remember/know the process. In both cases, they independently describe the same process (subject to cultural word differences). I respect them & their words (and both have shown "special abilities").
I have not ever discussed a comparison to specific books or texts with them. Would you like me to ask?
