Excellent translation submitted by keldan315 on June 15, 2023, 9:56pm The text of the Tibetan book of the dead is esoteric and can be off-putting for those without knowledge of Tibetan Buddhism and culture. The commentaries in this translation can help make the original text somewhat more understandable from an outsider's perspective
