Becoming

The After Death World The reminder The clear setting face to face When seeking rebirth. The Sidpa Bardo Is a thought form hallucination in the Intermediate State Happiness and misery will depend upon karma For them of evil karma who because of the influence thereof Become stricken with fear and terror One will have a body just like the body of flesh and blood The former human Wherever thou art to be born A vision of the place will appear to thee Follow not the visions which appear Through weakness Thou wilt have to wander amidst the Six Lokas and suffer pain Thou must allow thy mind to rest undistractedly in the nothing to do Void state of thine intellect A fixed period is not assured Persons of much evil karma Apparitional illusions And hallucinations of many people And sounds as of mountains crumbling down and of angry overflowing seas and of the roaring of fire In an unbearable intensity Wandering about Incapable of dying In reality there are no such things existing outside oneself Act so as to recognize this Voidness cannot injure voidness The qualityless cannot injure the qualityless Thy present intellect in the Intermediate State Continuously in motion Whatever thought occur to thee now Will wield great power Think not in thy mind of impious things That is thine own illusion Abandon all dotings and hankerings
