- It details the experiences a consciousness goes through during the intermediate state (Bardo) between death and its next rebirth. This period is divided into three stages:
1. **Chikhai Bardo** - the moment of death, where one's consciousness detaches from the body.
2. **Chonyid Bardo** - the 'luminosity' or 'dharmata' stage, characterized by visionary experiences.
3. **Sidpa Bardo** - a stage where the consciousness descends further toward rebirth.
