2/2
Atop your head and in your heart,Imagine as a single beingYour
most kind guru and the great Lord of Oddiyana.Feel an upwelling of
unbearable longing and devotion.
Whatever joy or sorrow befalls you, whatever favor or
misfortune,Pray forever to the lord Guru.Let your minds flow
together, yours at one with his.As death draws near, let go of all
attachment and hatred.
Picture Guru Padmasambhava above your head;Imagine your
consciousness as an orb of light, marked with the syllable
Hri;Dissolve that into the heart of the guru.If you practice
regularly nowAnd recite "The Aspiration to Be Born in the
Copper-Colored Mountain,"At death, a clear visualization will be
easy.
To put it briefly, the essence of dharmaIs to cut through
clinging to samsara,To cultivate love and compassion toward those
in the six realmsAnd to completely tame one's mind.Without
distraction, please always practice thus.
Even though I am immune to dharma, have no experience of
meditation, and just use up the donations, I, ChokyiLodro, wrote
this according to what the past masters have taught, to fulfill the
request of the yogini Pad Lu.Share
