Muriendo & Muerte: What did the Buddha Have to Say About It?
We will explore the Buddha’s talks on Dying and Death as Chaplain Alley Smith guides us into a deeper understanding of the Buddha’s life, his experiences and encounters with death. Participants are encouraged to consider old age, sickness and death as a path to deeper realization and awakening.
The concepts of beginning and end are only mental constructs created by the mind. In truth, there is no beginning or end. We only think about beginnings and endings when we are trapped in ignorance. It is because of ignorance that people are caught in an endless round of birth and death.”– El Buda

Marilyn Moore has been active in the Los Angeles Shambhala community since 1997. During the past four years her focus has been on organizing—and often leading —on-line meditation. This experience has given her a deep appreciation for the sense of community that can be nurtured through this amazing technology. Desde 2019, Marilyn has co-facilitated a monthly on-line “Before I Die” gathering that evolved from a workshop focused on practical preparations for death.
Marilyn has three grown children who do not live close. She currently enjoys somewhat frequent trips to London to receive hugs from her two-year-old grandson who lives there with his parents.
