"Now when the bardo of dying ...."

“Now when the bardo of dying dawns upon me,

I will abandon all grasping, yearning, and attachment,
Enter undistracted into clear awareness of the teaching,
And eject my consciousness into the space of unborn Rigpa (primordial nondual awareness);
As I leave this compound body of flesh and blood
 I will know it to be a transitory illusion.”



“When the bardo of the moment of death appears
 may I abandon attachments and mental fixations,
and engage without distraction in the
 path which the instructions make clear.
  Mind projected into the sphere of uncreated space,
separated from body, from flesh and blood,
 I will know that which is impermanence and illusion.”
Guru Rinpoche
