Listen "7' - Tibetan Book of the Dead"
Episode Synopsis
The sources explore the Tibetan Book of the Dead, a text that guides individuals through the "bardo" or intermediate state between death and rebirth. The text describes the experiences of the deceased, including visions of deities and encounters with various spiritual realms. The book also explores the concept of karma and reincarnation, with the ultimate goal of achieving liberation from the cycle of birth and death. The sources compare these ideas to Western psychology and mysticism, examining connections between Tibetan beliefs and the work of Freud and Plato. They also highlight the importance of rituals and practices for navigating the bardo and achieving spiritual enlightenment.
