The Tibetan Book of the Dead (also known as the Bardo Thodol or the Great Liberation through Hearing in the Bardo) is a Tibetan Buddhist text that is used as a guide for the deceased during the intermediate state (or bardo) between death and rebirth. The text is said to be based on the teachings of the Buddha and is intended to help the deceased navigate the spiritual realms and achieve liberation from the cycle of death and rebirth.

The Tibetan Book of the Dead is traditionally recited by a spiritual practitioner to a person who is close to death, or to the deceased person's consciousness, to guide them through the process of dying and the various stages of the bardo. It describes the various visions and experiences that the deceased person may encounter during this process, and offers guidance and teachings on how to navigate these experiences and achieve enlightenment.

The Tibetan Book of the Dead is an important text in Tibetan Buddhism and has been widely studied and translated into various languages. It is often used as a guide for practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism and is considered to be a valuable resource for understanding the teachings of the Buddha and the nature of the mind.
