Book list

Because of my great interest in life and death, I have been reading Tibetan Life and Death Book recently, and I have only read half of it at present.

In this process, I found that although I haven't formed my own view of life and death, I have invisibly thought about other aspects of life, which gives me a train of thought. Can I read more books on this subject? Look at people with different identities, what are their views on this kind of problem, and what are the differences and differences? I believe that even one or two books should yield something. So, I found a series of book lists through Baidu, Zhihu and other online channels, and then made a preliminary screening according to the contents on Douban. Finally, I summed up a list of books that I am interested in. Take a note here and enjoy it if you are interested. At the same time, we also welcome other friends' supplements and recommendations. Later, I will increase or decrease the content and gradually improve my reading comprehension.
