A resource not only for those experiencing grief but also those wanting to offer support.
A resource not
only for those experiencing grief but also those wanting to offer support.
Much of
bereavement literature addresses the mourner as an individual but neglects the
role that a community can provide. Nor does it address the obstacles that stand
in the way of supplying that support, much less provide suggestions for how to
do it better. Yet the experience of the bereaved is that often their friends
fall away just as they need them the most.
In Making the
World Safe for Sorrow, Margaret (Maggie) Izutsu gently guides both the bereaved
and those hoping to help by introducing Japanese memorial customs-both private
and social. These practices can be adapted not only to ease the pain associated
with bereavement but to transform our culture into one where loss of any kind
can be an opportunity to deepen relationships.
Drawing on the experience of focus group
participants who tried on these resources rooted in Buddhist and Confucian
traditions, Maggie describes their challenges and triumphs. She offers simple
suggestions for experimenting with these resources, either privately or in
community, and invites you to explore these gems of wisdom and practice to
better understand how they might affect both our grieving and our culture in
general
