What is it a necessary part of life? What can we expect from death? What can we really hope for? Drawing from recent scientific theories (cryonics, transhumanism, etc.) and religious wisdom (Hinduism, Buddhism and Christianity), this book invites us to look into this paradox of human life and stay attentive to the process of living. The twelve chapters of this book invite us to focus on death, so that we can relish life. Without ignoring the agony of death, we look at it tenderly and directly, not to dwell on death but in fact to focus on the process of living. This book affirms that if we live gratefully and authentically we can surrender ourselves to life and beyond gracefully.  aPhysical Immortality aCosmic Extinction aDeath-Religious Aspects aFuture Life aPhilosophy and Science aReligion and Science aPANDIKATTU (Kuruvilla)
