Raghu Markus and Ann Tashi Slater dive into the Tibetan book of the Bardo nation and how embracing death and non-permanence will help us live with greater existence and purpose.
This week I’ll receive a copy of Anne’s September 2025 book on Mindroll, Ragu and Anne’s discussion. How to experience a phoric death through relationships, identity, and moments of inpermanence, accept the moments of embracing the reality of struggle and nonpermanence, avoid finding the grace of struggle and life, and ensure that Lambdas first gives him a stroke Tibetan lineage, gives her grandmother a strong connection, and ensures that we will maintain, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our own, for the sake of our strength. Tradition as a way to embrace reality, process grief, recognize our interdependence, find meaning in losses that are compassionate towards others check out the film The Tibetan Book of the Dead: A Way of Lie.

“The truly basic lesson of Bardo’s teaching is that the perception of nonpersistence allows us to actually intuitively find the happiness we are looking for. – Anne Tasi Slater
