Death and the transitional periods written in culture and religion around death, specifically, dia de los muertos and those preparations offered by the Tibetan Book of the Dead are looked at alongside one another in this episode in preparation for the annual celebration in Mexico. Sharing both their personal experiences of loss, funerals and rituals around death, to the way the celebrations in Mexico offer a broader celebratory feel to honor familial life, Fausto and Emily cover death in both the experiential and textual. Fausto offers a detailed account of the Bardo Thodol and its corresponding rave rooms and electronic music corollaries. This barely scratches the surface of a topic to which we all can know so little of directly and yet are so driven by. If you have death, bardo, Tibetan Book of the Dead or perhaps death drive related questions or comments you'd like to share, we'd love to hear from you - antidotecast@gmail.com
