The authors of this book are deeply committed to contributing something promising from spiritual insight to address the great questions of life in connection with the mysteries of death in the current, often materialistic-nihilistic culture. The contributions originate from the conference "Learning from Dying," which took place in November 2015 at the Goetheanum in Dornach. Since 2007, similar events have been held every two years under the motto "Life in Dying," originally initiated by Päivi Lappalainen. All conferences were based on the insights provided by Rudolf Steiner in his writings and lectures regarding the support of the sick, the dying, and the deceased, as well as their surviving relatives.
