Summary
Ryan and Alex journey through the tantric cosmology of Vajrayana Tibetan Buddhism, exploring the bardo realms that bridge life and death and the dreamlike illusion of samsara. They reflect on awakening and the realization of nirvana, examining how the mind’s psychic projections shape human experience across lifetimes. They also cover the spiritual practices that allow one to see beyond illusion and awaken to a deeper, enduring reality.
