Second Last Breath by Vikas Lachhwani is a luminous celebration of life, framed by a mindful
awareness of its impermanence. In this poetic and philosophical debut, Lachhwani invites readers to embrace the richness of the present moment—not in spite of mortality, but because of it.
With a voice both insightful and compassionate, the author weaves together personal reflection,
Buddhist thought, and the grace of Japanese death poetry to explore life’s most essential questions: What gives our days meaning? How do we love, lose, and let go? And how can an awareness of endings make our living more vibrant, intentional, and beautiful?
Rather than dwelling in sorrow, Second Last Breath radiates with hope, clarity, and reverence. Each verse is a gentle companion—reminding us to cherish the fleeting, to find wonder in the ordinary, and to recognize the sacredness of every breath we take.
Perfect for readers seeking to live more deeply, heal more fully, and love more freely, this collection offers not just reflection, but renewal—a soulful invitation to dance with life, even in the shadow of death.
