Mits Aoki: A Mystery to be Lived

My Story

My story developed under, what I call, the Three Ages of Man, which correspond to three levels of consciousness. Each age has its own special focus, challenge and opportunity.

Mits Aoki

Mits Aoki

Mits Aoki was a theologian, minister, college professor and founder of the University of Hawaii''s Department of Religion. For over four decades the Rev. Dr. Aoki has shown others how to experience death not merely as an end, but as a vital, inseparable part of life. This film explores his personal journey and the stories of four courageous individuals who faced the challenge of "living their dying".

Mitsuo Aoki brought spirituality and forgiveness into caregiving for those going through the transition of death. His approach is one of 'conscious dying' that leads to fuller living. He helped found the hospice movement in Hawaii and has influenced profoundly the lives of thousands of clients, their families as well as his many students.

The Mits Aoki Legacy Foundation is a non-profit corporation that operates exclusively for educational and charitable purposes, within the meaning of Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986.
