Why the Tibetan Book of the Dead Is Shocking the World!

[@TheHiddenLight77]

This reflection on The Tibetan Book of the Dead is so insightful! It’s incredible how this ancient text about transitions, both in life and beyond, remains so relevant today. The idea of the ‘Bardo’ as a state of transformation really resonates. It’s a powerful reminder to approach uncertain moments with awareness and an open mind. Thank you for sharing such a profound perspective!

May we grow stronger and wiser with each passing day

[@maitreyabadra2267]

Each passing day in the cycle of samsara is the bardo of ignorance. As long as the sense of the false self persists in the body of ignorance of multiplicity of the phenomena....

In between is the name. It is yoga - transition of councesness Nirvana is Samsara Prebordial awareness of Samobokakaya becomes Sambokaya.

Its the ego that goes into a new incarnation But the ego is an illusion. Ok. The Big silende is inside you But your mind Got to become still ok. So relax ok❤

[@briandonovan5687]

I didn't interpret that at all. Not the ego, the ego is dissolved at death. You get to see how you acted n thought throughout your life ( you get to see your ego in action) . That's not what goes forward. The essence of you does. If you reincarnate ( at the 3rd Barto) you pick yoyr next life. You will develop a new ego based on your new experiences n what you are there to learn n trancend. At least that's what I understood. Incredible Book !

10,000 Years before Buddhism The Sanatana DHARMA Aim for MOKSHA that Buddhists call NIRVANA. There’s nothing New in what Buddhism teaches, Liberation from the Cycle of Birth and Death and it’s up to the SOUL to Decide whether to come back on Earth, after choosing his parents or Stay there as ONENESS. Like KALKI Birth has already been predicted and his Parents name s and the village where he will be born is all there in BHAVISHYA PURAN a Hindu TEXT.

Buddhism is not about magic, rituals, and radical ways of thinking. True Buddhism is simplicity. I am a Zen monk living in Japan. I know Zen is not entirely Buddhist either. But I look at other forms of Buddhism and think they’re way off Tamark. Chief of which, is Tibetan, Buddhism, and its counterpart here in Japan SHINGON Buddhism. Remember, Buddhism is simplicity, not complexity!

[@ogathingo8885]

There are many different schools of Buddhism and if everyone of us learn the essence of the Buddha’s teaching and not deluge with new fashionable new age trends, then we can keep Buddhism alive…..

[@ogathingo8885]

Bardo = birth to death, if we learn to meditate everyday on our existence: birth>living> death, then we might lose fear of death…..???

[@de21blckwd10]

I'm a Taoist I completely agree with you 🙏

[@WarriorOfChist]

Wrong. True Buddhism has never been simplicity. The whole point of aspects of the Nikayas and Agamas was was radical ways of thinking. Then there is magic and rituals, backed up by Mahayana sutras and especially Tantras. Of course Lord Buddha and his disciples did magic and miracles, but in tantric contexts they are extremely powerful. You don't believe in Tantras? Why? You are a Mahayana monk? What differentiates Mahayana Sutras from Tantras? Answer this please. Both are divine revelations from the Bodhisattvas. You are greatly mistaken in your judgement, I pray that Avalokitesvara will guide you ☸️🙏
