“How many years have we struggled trying to establish the dharma, trying to teach,
trying to learn? This program, TLC Transitional Life Care, is really trying to do that.
It is for the Buddha, Dharma and Sangha; it is for the benefit of all beings.

I think it’s a good idea, help everybody open their eyes! This program

is for the Three Jewels – it is wonderful. I say, thank you.”
TLC Transitional Life Care provides informal support to those approaching death and through the process of dying, and to their families and caregivers. We also offer comfort to those who’ve lost someone, and a variety of educational resources for those who wish to acknowledge and prepare for their end of life transition, all from a Buddhist perspective. We acknowledge that the end of life is a profound opportunity for spiritual understanding, practice and accomplishment, and all of our activities are motivated to support this. This includes:
-
Educational events
-
A manual, 'Instructions for the Transitional State'
-
End of life workshops for groups
-
Buddhist-related educational videos
-
‘Deep Chat’ support groups
-
End of life preparation
-
Care of the body at death
-
Bereavement support
-
The creation of Sa-Tsas for the deceased.
