Awakened one
With a body like this
You will see your home and family
As though you were meeting them in a dream
♪
But although you speak to them
You will get no reply
You will see your relatives and family weeping
So you will think,"I am dead"
"What shall I do?"
And you will feel intense pain
Like the pain of a fish rolling in hot sand
♪
But now, suffering is no use
Even though you were attached to your relatives and family
It is no use
So, do not be attached
Invoke the lord of great compassion
And there will be no suffering or fear
♪
Awakened one
Since your mind is separated from your body
You cannot settle down
You feel angry and cold
And consciousness becomes airy
Speeding, swaying
And impermanent
You will think, "So I am dead"
"What shall I do now?"
And you will feel intense and boundless pain
Do not occupy yourself with all kinds of thoughts
But rest your mind in its basic state
But since you're a mental body, you cannot die
And even though your body is cut into pieces
You will recover
You're really the natural form of emptiness
So there is no need to fear
The lords of death are the natural form of emptiness
Your own confused projections
And you are emptiness
A mental body of unconscious tendencies
Emptiness cannot harm emptiness
And external lords of death, gods
Evil spirits, demons and so on
Have no reality apart from your own confused projections
So, recognize this
At this moment, recognize everything as
The bardo
