Founded by Reverend Bodhi Be, his wife Leilah Be and Ram Dass Their idea? To start here on Maui, working with families and professionals to engage in advocacy and educational programs on conscious aging, dying and death... Doorway Into Light was born.
A Green Burial and Funeral Ceremony on Maui

Since 2006, Doorway Into Light has been presenting educational programs and trainings in Hawaii, for families and professionals in the field, as well as actively engaged in direct, volunteer support of dying people, their families, their care-givers and those grieving.

Doorway Into Light is still the only non-profit funeral home in Hawaii.

To change our culture, to change our lives, requires the transformation of consciousness and few things shift consciousness as quickly as an awareness of death.
