WAMM Guesthouse for the dying
A place where people can design their own passing 
|
People should have a choice about how they die as they do about how they live. We believe that people should have a right to die the way that they wish. Our goal is to provide a serene, safe and beautiful location where people, who are close to the transition and their families, can focus on the spiritual journey rather the confusion and fear that often is associated with a death of a loved one. "Set and Setting" The WAMM Guesthouse will be fully supported by hospice and an experienced, loving staff, who will provide the set and setting, drawing on many years of experience helping people transition to the "other side". Here’s what modern day luminaries have said about participating in our own death “Dying is nothing to fear. It can be the most wonderful experience of your life. It all depends on how you have lived.” Elizabeth Kubler-Ross“In the Eastern Tradition, the state of your consciousness at the last moment of life is so crucial that you spend your whole life preparing. At the moment of death you let go lightly, you go out into the light, towards the one, towards God The only thing that died, after all, was another set of thoughts about who you were this time around.” Ram Dass“Personally, I have been looking forward to dying all of my life. Dying is the most fascinating experience in life. You’ve got to approach dying the way you live your life – with curiosity, hope, experimentation and with the help of your friends.” Timothy Leary“Ignore death up to the last moment; then, when it can't be ignored any longer, have yourself squirted full of morphia and shuffle off in a coma. Thoroughly sensible, humane and scientific, eh? ” Aldous Huxley“Being invited to the bedside of someone who is facing death is above all a great honor; full and rich. There is time for everyone to cry, to laugh, to wonder and to explore the possibilities and practice for their own death. It is not that I know death, but that I have learned from the greatest teachers –those who are dying. Valerie Corral |
