A Mindful Gathering with Alison Driscoll and Bill Moriarty
In September, 2024, Bill talked with Alison Driscoll, discussing how starting a meditation practice in the early '80s evolved into Alison's life journey in health, healing, & hospice. We explored how bardos can be tiny gaps with the potential for realization.
Alison is one of the elders on The Wisdom Seat Lerwa Council, and has been practicing & studying in the Kagyu-Nyingma Buddhist lineage since the early 1980s and her principal teacher/vajra guru is Her Eminence Jetsun Khandro Rinpoche in the Mindrolling lineage of Tibetan Buddhism.

Another text on Bardo that is very clarifying was translated by Francesca Fremantle & Trungpa Rinpoche, The Tibetan Book of the Dead..along with a very detailed description in the book Luminous Emptiness Understanding the Tibetan Book of the Dead https://www.shambhala.com/authors/a-f/francesca-fremantle/luminous-emptiness-975.html
The following link is a great interview with Francesca Freemantle on this topic.
