The generation stage which refers to the visualization of the
forms or bodies of various deities or yidams. These
deities include many that are peaceful, many that
are wrathful and so on. In general, regardless of the
nature of the deity, this technique of visualizing your-
self in the form of a deity is very effective in produc-
ing progress in meditation and in causing the bless-
ing of these deities to enter into you. Deity medita-
tion is especially beneficial in training for the bordo,
because in the bordo after one's death a variety of
appearances will arise, some of them seemingly
threatening. Although these appearances are not in
any way external to you and are merely the projec-
tions of your mind because of the confusion of your
mind in that state, you will tend to mistake them as
external to you and; therefore, will tend to regard
them as threatening, which will, of course, produce
fear.
