The five invitations: discovering what death can teach us about living fully

The first invitation: Don't wait. The doorway to possibility ; At once here and disappearing ; The maturation of hope ; The heart of the matter

The second invitation: Welcome everything, push away nothing. As is ; Turn toward your suffering ; Love heals

The third invitation: Bring your whole self to the experience. Don't be a role, be a soul ; Taming the inner critic ; The raging river ; Hearing the cries of the world

The fourth invitation: Find a place of rest in the middle of things ; The calm in the storm ; Mind the gap ; Courageous presence

The fifth invitation: Cultivate don't know mind. The story of forgetfulness ; Not knowing is most intimate ; Surrender to the sacred.
