Death and the Purpose of Existence   This podcast is drawn from two talks.

In the first excerpt (from 1985), Adi Da describes how the habits of attention, while alive, determine what happens in and after death. He dispels the myth, "When you die, you go to heaven." He gives a clear picture of how the death process works, and why spiritual life is absolutely necessary in serving that process.

In the second excerpt (at 12:55), devotee Carolyn Lee relates a wonderful story from 1983. While in Adi Da's physical Company in Fiji (five hours from any hospital), a devotee has a near-fatal accident. For the full (text) version of this story, read A Devotee's Journey into Death and Back.

Death and dying. For more about Adi Da's wisdom about near-death experiences, what happens after death, how to serve the dying process, how to live life so as to ensure an "easy death", and more, visit our section, Easy Death.
