The Tibetan Book of the Dead | W. Y. Evans-Wentz

W.Y. Evans-Wentz
4.9/5 (23636 ratings)
Description:The Tibetan Book of the Dead has a legendary origin, attributed to Padma-Sambhava's visit to Tibet in the late eighth century. According to legend, he concealed these texts in stones, lakes, and pillars because the people of that era in Tibet were deemed unprepared for their profound teachings. Over time, these teachings have found a resurgence in popularity among diverse Western readers, now taking the form of the widely known Tibetan Book of the Dead. Originally intended as a guide not just for those who have passed on, but also for the living, this text delineates the journey through death and rebirth across three intermediate states of existence. While traditionally employed as a funeral text recited in the presence of the deceased or dying, its scope extends beyond that. It presents a comprehensive exploration of the transition from life to the afterlife and was designed to provide insights and guidance for both the living and the departed. As a notable contribution to the field of death and dying studies, and an exploration of beliefs concerning life after death and reincarnation, the Tibetan Book of the Dead stands apart in the realm of sacred texts. Its impact on socio-cultural perspectives is unparalleled, making it a distinctive and influential work.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
