Bardo series
A series of short films created by Lianne Metcalf.
In Buddhist teachings, the bardos represent transitional states between various phases of existence, signifying the fluidity and impermanence of life. The bardos are pivotal periods encompassing life, death, and the spaces in between. Each bardo presents an opportunity for profound insight and transformation. From the bardo of life, where individuals experience the present moment, to the bardos of death and afterlife, where consciousness navigates through different realms, and even the bardos of dreams and meditation, which offer gateways to explore the nature of reality. These transitional states emphasize the importance of mindfulness, awareness, and understanding the transient nature of existence, encouraging practitioners to cultivate wisdom and compassion throughout these transitions to attain spiritual growth and liberation from cyclic existence (samsara).

In Buddhism, the bardo of life is seen as a transient and precious opportunity for individuals to cultivate awareness, compassion, and wisdom amidst the ever-changing flow of existence.

In Buddhism, the bardo of dream is considered a realm where one can explore the nature of reality, confront subconscious elements, and potentially attain insight into the illusory nature of existence.
The Bardo of Meditation
The bardo of meditation in Buddhism symbolizes a state where individuals can transcend worldly distractions, fostering deep insight and clarity while traversing the realms of consciousness.
The Bardot of Death
