The Tibetan Book of the Dead: Liberation through Hearing

The Tibetan Book of the Dead: Liberation through Hearing in the Intermediate Zone
by Joe Schaeppi through Professor Rev. Dr. James Kenneth Powell II, opensourcebuddhism.org This remains my all time favorite. We receive an introduction to the stages of death, dying and rebirth and the process of attaining liberation through hearing - while dead - from a long line of Indian and Tibetan literature. Schaeppi makes you feel like you are dying yourself!

Another excellent video like the Nagarjuna gig. I do wish though the other narrators in your video archives are as clear+concise in presentation speech-wise. A real pity, as a lot of the info on Buddhism you and your students present interest me a great deal as they're mostly put forth as they really are, minus the bias and apologetic/defensive tendencies. Going to check your site now for the continuation of this lecture. Thank you and your contributors for sharing all this invaluable info.

@koldsack Thank you Kold! Your comments greatly encourage me. Yes, many of my students rush the narration or it is lifeless. Each documentary displays a number of avenues to the multiple intelligences. It always surprises me for example, that the student whose paper was mediocre produces a fantastic documentary and it sometimes happens the other way around. I hope to remake them all before I die. Again, thanks for the positives!

Bunch of superstitious BS

Interesting Mr. Physics,

isn't it? that all these quanta packets "spark" long enough to comprise this macro organism called a human. Then that these events culminate in all these ridiculous superstitions! Love, sex, music, children, religion, afterlife fantasies! Further how interesting that the experiences of Near Death survivors are so very similar to these! Why is it that we are not Dalek or Spock-like robots? Why do we wish for these fantasies?

Mysteries you can't answer!
