A Preview of The Most Important Day of Your Life: Are You Ready?
Tuesday, July 14, 2010 by Maria Dancing Heart Hoaglund
In Buddhist thought, the day you die is considered the most important day of your life. The moment of your death is the culmination of your entire life; and you want to be at the highest vibration possible in that moment so that you can move on to the highest vibration possible on the other side.
Crazy Horse, a holy man of the Lakota people, became well known for the phrase “Today is a good day to die.” His words epitomized the Native American philosophy that understands that our lives are cyclical. Life on mother earth is a circle just as the stars; the moon and the sun are circles. We are born, we live, and we die. Crazy Horse and the holy men and women of the many tribes of what is now North and South America were indeed great prophets.
Maria Dancing Heart’s new book, The Most Important Day of Your Life: Are You Ready?, will help you get ready for your death. You will learn about some of the best kept secrets of hospice. You will learn how expansive your life is and how lovingly, creatively, and graciously you might live it. And who knows? You just might decide – as the Celtic way suggests – to die before you die, so that when you finally let go of your earthly life, there’ll be no need to die!

Your natural state is that of Foreverness. -- Abraham - Hicks
Maria Dancing Heart is a great help to open us to come to terms with our mortality and at the same time she helps remove the sting from Death. Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross once had a patient who said to her 'I want to live through my dying.' Anyone who shares that sentiment will find THE LAST ADVENTURE OF LIFE a way to expand their consciousness and to prepare for that moment. -- Rabbi Zalman Schachter-Shalomi
The brain speaks through words; the heart in the glance of the eyes; and the soul through a radiance that charges the atmosphere, magnetizing all. -- Bowl of Saki, by Hazrat Inayat Khan
Funny how you'll plan every aspect of every trip except the most important one you'll ever take! -- NHPCO Website (www.nhpco.org)
