Beautiful little book which, through death stories of great spiritual masters mainly from Buddhist and Hindu lineages, inspires confidence and acceptance that death is a completely natural process inseparable from life, and that death is not the final chapter of our journey. It serves as a good reminder of the only constant in the universe — change / impermanence. I wish some of the stories were a bit longer and were given a bit broader context or background of a person's life.
