When
Death Comes: The Refuge
of Compassionate Presence |
|
| |
Frank
Ostaseski |
|
| |
In
this experiential daylong institute, we will utilize mindfulness
and inquiry practice to develop the three essential qualities
needed by those accompanying the dying. They include compassionate
presence in the face of suffering, freedom from the limitations
of roles, and an abiding trust in the dying process. When
these are present, we become a trustworthy refuge for
ourselves and those we serve. |

The
Art of Dying as Intensified Living:
A Blessed Death in the Modern World |
|
| |
Therese
Schroeder-Sheker |
|
| |
Using
harp, voice, word and image, Therese Schroeder-Sheker
conveys the work of the Chalice of Repose Project and
its emphasis on contemplative musicianship and music-thanatology.
Drawing upon 36 years of clinical and spiritual work at
the bedside of the dying, she describes awareness of human
mortality and dying itself as integral to the whole of
human life and biography. Using case study and narrative,
this talk describes the inner work of music-thanatology,
its theoretical frameworks, and transformative outcomes. |
