Dying with dignity - Illusory Advice


 

The state of mind is the most important aspect of dying. It is important to die with an alert and happy mind so that it is an alert and happy mind that enters the bardo state between rebirths. The length of life in that sense is irrelevant as the mind-stream simply continues. It is the capacity of the mind to be present and aware in the moment that either moves your consciousness in the direction of greater openness or greater confusion.

The greatest opportunity - Battlecry of Freedom



It can be painful to look directly at afflictions and honestly acknowledge them, but this is essential for Mind Training. Transform what is seen, and look accurately and deeply. Mind Training is wonderfully pragmatic. It addresses the reality of how things actually are. There is no room to hide from this reality, but also no need to fear it. The greatest affliction is also the greatest opportunity.
