Workshop Student

“I was highly impressed by this offering. Dale was a wonderful presenter who could lead and facilitate in a focused, ease-filled way. He made accessible some very deep topics that have many layers, giving us bites that were digestible, usable, and offered entry points to deeper consideration and practice.”

Support Group Member

“Dale is such a fantastic speaker, a fantastic teacher. Also the fact that he comes from a Western background and that he got a PhD and comes from a place of logic is something I really relate to. His teachings are so very clear. I can relate to them. He’s fully human. He shows us humanity. And it’s been one of the great gifts in my life to study with Dale.”

Dale F.

Support Group Member

“I’ve been wanting to thank you for [RamDev Dale Borglum’s] talks. After having my full of teachings and exploring over the past 40 years there is not much I am drawn to. But there is something about your talks that so resonates with what is most relevant at this time – becoming more and more aware of – the not me – the one behind – compassionate awareness.  

You touch upon basic daily moments again and again with your admissions of your own stuff – it’s kind of sweet – but really relevant to remembering our true work of awakening. Deep appreciation.”

John

Open Circle Volunteer & Course Student

“My Living/Dying Project client taught me how to sit with helplessness, hopelessness, uncertainty and the unknown. She also taught me the value of being present to human connection without conditions or expectations. Compassion lived in the present moment, in the space between us. I experienced that the dying process was a time for healing and letting go for both of us. Dale’s training and ongoing guidance and insight provided a necessary foundation and support for these experiences.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I find out more information about your support groups and events?

Visit our calendar, click on the event that interests you, and there will be more information on what the event is about and how to attend.

No, although many of our clients receive hospice care. Please read more about practical considerations for living with a life-threatening illness here.

Although well intentioned, when folks reach out to us on behalf of someone else, we find that we often meet this person with confusion or resistance. If you feel your loved one could benefit from working with a volunteer, have them look at our website, social media, attend a support group, listen to the podcast, etc., and if they are interested, they are welcomed to email or call us to set up their own intake appointment.

Yes, please click here for the list.

We are touched to hear that folks would like the Project’s presence in their neighborhood, but we do not have established groups nor activities in other places. We do lead retreats from time to time. All of our events and gatherings can be found online on our website.

No, we have clients and volunteers from all over the world. Most of the work these days is being done via zoom and telephone and thus a client/volunteer may not live in your area. We do our best to keep it local and in-person, but this is not always possible and we’ve found that healing and connection can happen even over the phone or internet when used consciously. Volunteers should know that sometimes clients may not want in-person visits and want connection through other mediums. 

We have Clients and Volunteers worldwide: 

United States, Canada, Europe, South America, India, Australia, and New Zealand.

Founded in 1978 by:

We have served over 10,000 Clients and their families and caregivers.

Over 250 Volunteers have been a companion for others since 1978.
