Om If I Should Die Before You Wake
How do we raise our children with a sacred view of their lives? How do we inspire them to be fully engaged members of our society? When author and professor Paul Keddy became seriously ill, he had two very young boys, and had to consider both these questions. Realizing that he might not be there to raise his sons, he decided to write down his instructions so they could some day read them.
Dr. Paul Keddy's fatherly advice is based in part on his experiences of the Buddhist path, but with a deep appreciation of western culture. In particular, he draws upon an avowedly secular approach to spirituality called 'the sacred path of warriorship', as taught by the Buddhist meditation master Chögyam Trungpa Rinpoche.
More than thirty years have passed since this book first appeared. Dr. Keddy is now an elder, and his sons are grown men. This edition includes a new preface with some reflections for a new generation of readers. This book remains timely and appropriate for anyone trying to lead a spiritual life - with or without children.
