Pema Düddul: Memory and Memoir and their value to understanding dying, death and grief

In today’s episode of What About Death!?, Tsultrim speaks with Dr Pema Düddul, a Director at Pristine Awareness: Foundation for Buddhist Practice and an internationally recognised Buddhist teacher in the Tibetan tradition. Pema is also recently retired from his position as the Associate Professor of Writing, Editing and Publishing at the University of Southern Queensland in Toowoomba.

Pema has a wide range of published work, including research papers, novels and scripts for stage and screen. One particular area of interest for him has been memoir writing, particularly in the context of understanding the dynamics of memory and how together memory and memoir can help us at the time of death and with our grief.

This episode of What About Death!? is hosted by Tsultrim and edited by Werner Mathiuet. Special thanks to Shannon Callander and the whole Karuna team.
