Bardos are the constantly changing realities of one's existence. Defined originally as the state between death and rebirth, Sogyal redefines the word to include all junctures in life where one can become enlightened, liberated, or introduced to potential. Sogyal continues to explain the four primary bardos as those of the natural bardo of life, the painful bardo of death, the luminous bardo of dharmata, and the karmic bardo of becoming.
