The Monastery invites you to dive into the Bardo States: liminal moments between living and dying, in or out of your body, where you balance on the edge of the unknown. The Monastery goes DIY (Do It Yourself): in the performative video installations, you can prepare yourself to leave the body, aided by the monks. Twice a day the monks also initiate the rituals themselves and organize a wake for the monk who is buried alive.
