Life's Final Exam stands at the crossroads where the wisdom of spiritual tradition meets real human need. Death and dying do not respect sectarian boundaries, and it is wonderful to see the riches of Vaishnava Hinduism drawn upon to sustain ands console people embarked on this life's final journey. Ministry to the sick and dying is today an increasingly inter-religious phenomenon, and this book is a welcome resource for departments of pastoral and hospice care.

Life's Final Exam opens a world of new insights into the mysteries of life, death, and what lies beyond. The book contains answers to life's biggest questions seen through the eyes of love, devotion, and service. Giriraj Swami weaves the perennial wisdom of the Vedic tradition, which is not very well know in the West, with the practical experience and support for those working in hospice and for anyone who cares for others at the great threshold. Regardless of a person's spiritual path, Life's Final Exam offers fresh perspectives into what we all hope for and most cherish in life. Here is a new volume of the growing world library of The Books of Living and Dying.
