The Relationship Between the Tibetan Book of the Dead and the Kundalini Yoga

When you die, then the Tibetan Book of the Dead is a description of the 49 days after that. See it's the same thing as there is an exercise in India for looking at the sun. You start at sunrise and you focus on the sun and you look directly into it without blinking until it sets. People who do it never damage their eyes, but a person in the United States who might turn on with acid and then look directly into the sun may burn out his retina. And it's only at a very high degree of complete giving up of ego that you wouldn't destroy your body that way.
