                     THE MOMENT OF DEATH
                      a training weekend

If someone you love were dying at this moment, would you know what to do
to help? What is help at this moment? Perhaps we feel, as one woman
said, "Although billions of people have lived and died before us, why do
we feel so alone, so unprepared and untutored in a situation that
unfailingly comes to every family, every person? Why are there no
"wisdom treasures", handed down from generation to generation to help us?"

Perhaps we consult books on death & dying, only to find that books
really don't help much in the actual experience of being in the same
room with a dying loved one during the final hours.

THE MOMENT OF DEATH training weekend will introduce you to the clear
light practice for the dying. you will learn how to cut through the
confusions of mind heightened by illness and medications. you will learn
how to meld the consciousness of yourself, that of the dying person and
other family members into a powerful clear unity flowing inexorably
toward the moment which many consider to be life's greatest spiritual
opportunity - the moment of the great light of death.

This practice, which brings peaceful heart and clear mind to all
involved, is non-sectarian and of universal applicability. although
suitable for the religious and non-religious alike, it accommodates to
and blends easily and beautifully with meaningful segments of the
family's religious tradition - making it the family's "own" practice.

To assist a dying person's consciousness to become one with the light is
a compassionate act of great import. it is at once both inexpressible
and unforgettable. it is a treasure worth passing down to future
generations.


THE MOMENT OF DEATH training weekend is under the direction of Patricia
Shelton, who has developed and pioneered the use of the Clear Light
practices for the dying.


The founding director of the Clear Light Society, Ms Shelton has had,
since 1971, wide experience in ministering to the dying of diverse
religious backgrounds and belief systems, not only during the weeks and
months prior to death, but also, and of critical importance, at the very
moment of death itself.

Arrangements can be made to present the moment of death training weekend
to your group or community. for details please call or write.
