abstract	The death of a psychotherapy school founder offers unique insights into the relationship between theoretical constructs and lived experience. Dr. Nossrat Peseschkian, founder of Positive Psychotherapy, died peacefully in his sleep on April 27, 2010, at his home in Wiesbaden (Germany)—a death that reflected his Baha’i convictions, Balance Model, and transcultural life approach in a remarkable way. This study is based on personal conversations with Dr. Nossrat Peseschkian between 2003 and 2010, as well as an extensive interview with his son Dr. Hamid Peseschkian after his father's death. The study suggests that Peseschkian's dying was neither accidental nor purely biological, but probably represented the completion of a consciously lived life philosophy.
