Further Reading

For the academically inclined, Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche’s Mind Beyond Death (Ithaca, NY: Snow Lion Publications, 2006) and Francesca Fremantle’s Luminous Emptiness: Understanding the Tibetan Book of the Dead (Boston: Shambhala Publications, 2001) are indispensable.

For a more accessible study, Sogyal Rinpoche’s The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying is without peer.

Journey of the Mind, by Thrangu Rinpoche, is pithy and practical, as is Chökyi Nyima Rinpoche’s The Bardo Guidebook (Kathmandu: Rangjung Yeshe Publications, 1991) and Peaceful Death, Joyful Rebirth by Tulku Thondup Rinpoche (Boston: Shambhala Publications, 2005).
