The  Bardo Thödol —“Liberation Through Hearing in the Intermediate State”—guides awareness through the moment of death, the visionary appearances of peaceful and wrathful deities, and the movement toward rebirth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWHAT IS THE BARDO THÖDOL?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTradition attributes this transformative scripture to Padmasambhava, the eighth-century tantric master, and describes it as a  terma , or treasure teaching, concealed until the proper time for its revelation. Its central message is both mysterious and direct: the appearances of the bardo are inseparable from mind, and recognition can become liberation. What happens to consciousness at the moment of death? How does Tibetan Buddhism understand the intermediate state? Why do peaceful and wrathful deities appear? How can contemplation of death deepen the way we live?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWHY THIS EDITION?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis annotated and illustrated Triple Gem Library edition features: Landmark Translation  - The complete 1927 English rendering by Lāma Kazi Dawa-Samdup Historic Editorial Framework  - Compilation and original notes by W.
