Yeshe Khorlo USA is excited to announce Khenchen Wangchuk Jamtsho will provide a three-month online course on the Bardo Thodol Chenmo: The Tibetan Book of the Dead, also translated as Liberation Through Hearing in the Intermediate State.
This profound compilation of texts, originally composed by Padmasambhava and later discovered by the Nyingma treasure revealer Karma Lingpa, offers detailed instruction on death, rebirth, and liberation in the bardo, or intermediate state.
In The Self-Liberation of Seeing: Pointing-Out Instructions on Tögal (Direct Crossing) in the Bardo of Dharmata, Khenpo Wangchuk will give an introduction to the peaceful deities of the bardo. The physical features, implements, and actions of the peaceful deities, encountered for seven days, will be thoroughly explained.
On days eight to fourteen of the Bardo of Dharmata, the wrathful deities appear. These manifestations will also be described in detail, including their physical forms, weapons, and fearsome characteristics.
Finally, in The Self-Liberation of Existence, Khenpo Wangchuk offers instruction on the Sipa Bardo, explaining how the karma of virtue and vice propels us toward fortunate, or unfortunate, rebirth. Instruction on this bardo will help close the door to the six realms and enable you to choose an auspicious rebirth in the human realm as a child of yogis and yoginis who practice Buddhadharma with compassion and devotion.
