The Book That Explains What Happens When We Die (In Detail)

What really happens when we die? Is it the end—or just the beginning of something deeper? In this video, I explore The Bardo Thodol, also known as The Tibetan Book of the Dead, and uncover its powerful and often misunderstood message. This ancient text isn’t just a guide for the dying—it’s a manual for the living.

I break down the three bardos, or transitional stages:
Chikhai Bardo – the moment of death and the encounter with pure awareness,
Chönyid Bardo – the visions that mirror our mind,
Sidpa Bardo – the pull toward rebirth and how it reflects our unconscious choices.

More than just describing the afterlife, this book teaches us how to live with clarity, presence, and purpose. You’ll discover how your mind creates your reality, how to recognize the illusions that keep you stuck, and how to consciously shape your future—now and beyond.

If you’ve ever wondered what happens after death—or how to live more consciously—this video is for you.
