Death Will Not Liberate You From Your Problems
If you want to know your past life, look at your present conditions. If you want to know your future life, look at your present actions.
~ Padmasambhava
Listen here, Palgyi Senge, my eminent noble son!
All phenomena of samsara and nirvana are your own mind, And do not appear apart from this mind - - Devoid of a self-nature, beyond thought, word, and description.
Don't accept the pleasant or reject the awful, don't affirm or deny,
Make no preferences,
But remain vividly awake in the state of unfabricated naturalness!
By remaining like this, the sign of progress is that your body, speech and mind
Feel free and easy, beyond the confines of pleasure and pain.
That is the moment of understanding the awakened state!
***Advice from The Lotus Born.

A busca do autoconhecimento e do treino da mente na maioria das vezes não é uma tarefa confortável, sentadinho…
