生命的終點是一扇門，門的後面別有一番不可思議的風景問題是：你準備好怎麼打開門走過去了嗎？1992年索甲仁波切的作品《西藏生死書》（The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying）問世，翻譯成三十多種文字，在全世界掀起了生死學和臨終關懷的風潮。而藏傳佛教的《西藏度亡經》正是《西藏生死書》的原本。《西藏度亡經》原為印度經典，由蓮華生大士傳入西藏並由藏僧譯為藏文，由喀齊達瓦桑杜喇嘛（Lama Kazi Dawa-samdup）於1919年譯成英文，並由其弟子美國學者伊文思溫慈（W. Y. Evans Wentz）於1927年編輯出版，名為《西藏度亡經》（The Tibetan Book of the Dead），傳入西方，成為英語世界深遠影響的藏傳佛教經典。「凡夫之人，報盡命終，將入已入，中陰境界。有上妙法，使之聽聞，即得救度，是名中陰救度密法。」人在捨報之後，由於沒有了身體的煩惱束縛，覺性反而更加廓然分明，學佛人這時候更加應該生起菩提心以證悟法性。佛陀以一大事因緣出興於世，正是要救度眾生出三界火宅，永離生死流轉。世人聞說此法，無論是臨終者或是亡者，都可以因而解除種種「中陰險難」的恐怖，證入不生不滅的法性。「從一七、二七，乃至七七，不斷導示，提醒亡者識神，使得著落。究竟不離實相，處處呼令識自本心。離開有喜樂忿怒等觀境，已指示其未在心識以外。時時囑念觀世音，尤相應於無緣大慈悲主，誠哉度亡妙法。」
