    Nothing new under the Sun

    Bardo Thodol (The Tibetan Book of the Dead) - The Tibetan text
    describes, and is intended to guide one through, the experiences that
    the consciousness has after death, in the bardo, the interval between
    death and the next rebirth.
    ...
    ..
    Aldous Huxley introduced the Tibetan Book of the Dead to Timothy Leary....According to Leary, Metzner and Alpert, the Tibetan Book of
    the Dead is

    ... a key to the innermost recesses of the human mind, and a guide
    for initiates, and for those who are seeking the spiritual path of liberation......... one of the oldest and most universal practices for
    the initiate to go through the experience of death before he can be
    spiritually reborn. Symbolically he must die to his past, and to his
    old ego, before he can take his place in the new spiritual life into
    which he has been initiated
