We started in 1997 as a newsletter doing reviews in the field of death and dying, and now we are your complete information center: conference info, events, chats, news, and reviews.

     The growth of the holistic approach to dying, ie. that which takes life into account, was the inspiration for the starting of The Great Adventure.  It was at the Art of Dying 2 Conference  in May of 1997 that we realized the importance of the growing holistic death and dying movement in the persons of Robert Thurman, Stephen Levine, Ram Dass, Therese Schroeder-Sheker, Christine Longaker, Paul Brenner and Joan Halifax  just to name a few. We spoke with the editor of Inner Journeys, a newsletter of book reviews, and decided to combine with Inner Journeys and do book and conference reviews which would present this more enlightened view of death and dying. Since that time we have been covering conferences and doing as many reviews as possible. In 1999 we switched to a web based format.

     Those who have long been in this work, Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, EJ Gold, Sogyal Rinpoche, Stanislav Grof, John Lilly and the whole lineage of proponents of the great Tibetan science of consciousness have stood as cornerstones in our explorations and discoveries. We now realize that there are many who are interested in a more holistic approach to working with the dying, and our goal as of this time is to produce a full resource site to assist other's efforts. This is all volunteer work.
