In my book Extraordinary Awakenings I told the story of Zak Khan, who had a powerful spiritual awakening in 2009, as a result of a near-death experience, at a time when he was seriously ill with cancer. Early in April 2023, Zak was told that his cancer had returned and that he may only have two months left to live. I spent an afternoon with Zak, three weeks after his diagnosis, and it was the most powerful and profound conversation I’ve ever had. Zak sadly died around two weeks after the conversation. It was a blessing to share his presence, to feel his acceptance and serenity in the face of imminent death. Zak shares his feelings about what is fundamentally important, what death can teach us about life, and how the qualities we develop in this life affect our transition into the next life. There is a third and final part of the conversation, which I will release soon.
