A classic text of Tibetan Buddhism, providing detailed instructions for the departed. According to tradition, it is read to a dying person so that he can realize the true nature of the mind on a journey through the bardo and escape from the cycle of birth and death. As presented by the famous Tibetologist and researcher of ancient Buddhist texts, Francesca Freemantle, special emphasis is placed on lifetime practices that prepare a person for a conscious stay in bardo. Chögyam Trungpa's comments draw parallels between the ancient sacred text and the principles of modern psychology.
