So many are shocked by the sudden loss of two well known individuals. Why did they resort to suicide to end their suffering? In Zen we explore the very nature of what life is, how it can be lived fully in a way that brings fulfillment. We also look at the cycles of life and death that occur each day and how to be at ease with them. Finally, we can grow to see, that wherever one is, these cycles go on endlessly, and there is a deep way to live without suffering and a sense of separation.
