ABOUT THE KAMLAK CENTER:

Changing the way we think about death and life.  We confront the belief that there’s nothing but matter, that death is the end of everything. We embrace the new worldview that there’s nothing but Life, birth and death are events in time and space, and grief can open us to this new consciousness.  (www.kamlak.com)
