Bardo Songs: Music and Illumination on the Tibetan Book of the Dead

A unique opportunity to be a part of a rare experience: participants will be guided into a meditative journey through a special intimate concert inspired by the teachings of the Tibetan Book of the Dead: Liberation Upon Hearing in the Between. This quintessential text, attributed to the 8th century Buddhist Vajra master Padmasambhava provides insight and direct instructions on how to navigate through the stages of the Bardo – the intermediary state between life and death. According to the teachings of Tibetan Buddhism, the Bardo journey offers a precious opportunity for practitioners to awaken to their own true Buddha nature and be liberated from all suffering.

Internationally acclaimed Tibetan singer/songwriter Tenzin Choegyal will be joined by award-winning composer Simone Giuliani on piano and master artist Tsering Dorjee Bawa, who will be performing the very rare Black Hat ritual dance. Narration by Christiana Polites. With guests Simone Marrucci on guitars and Gabe Noel on Upright Bass.
