If, at the moment of death, we have already a stable realization of the nature of mind, in one instant we can purify all our karma. And if we continue that stable recognition, we will actually be able to end our karma altogether, by entering the expanse of the primordial purity of the nature of mind, and attaining liberation.
Padmasambhava explained this: “This power to attain stability by just recognizing the nature of mind is like a torch which in one instant can clear away the darkness of aeons. So if we can recognize the nature of mind in the bardo in the same way as we can now when it is introduced by the master, there is not the slightest doubt that we will attain enlightenment. This is why, from this very moment on, we must become familiar with the nature of mind through practice.”

Nature of the Mind;
always filled with ego-chatter and resulting in nothing else to matter?
Warrior Leaf…
such a process of filtration are the random thoughts…
arrows for the quiver toward the still mind; Blessed mantra, pranayama, zazen, WF Lifestyle Principles…
inward, endlessly we take travel,
