Whether you are caring for a family member, senior Vaisnava, Godbrother or Godsister, you have a tremendous task ahead of you. This book is meant to serve as a guide so the reader may understand the hospice philosophy and how it relates to Krishna consciousness, basic terminology and concepts, and the care of a patient from a Vaisnava perspective. I humbly offer this as a service to my spiritual master, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, as well as to all the q of this world who are serving Lord Caitanya's movement by caring for each other.

"During his final days in Vrindavan in 1977, Srila Prabhupada told his disciples, 'Don't think that this won't happen to you.' In light of this instruction, I highly recommend this book as an important contribution to our society." Sruta Kiriti dasa, Srila Prabhupada's Personal Servant 1972-75
