72 The Mahayana teaching on transferring consciousness is precisely these five powers...

B. Alan Wallace, 14 Oct 2013

Alan again front loads the meditation by comparing Atisha’s Lam Rim texts and Seven Point Mind Training text and the role of discursive meditation in both. We can be encouraged that although Ultimate and Relative Bodichitta might seem high and complex ideals we have already begun training our minds in each of these with our range of meditations.

After the meditation, Alan begins to unpack the next aphorism taking the advice from living well to dying well. He shares advice on preparing for death, propulsive karma, the bardo and rebirth.

Meditation starts at: 28:40 (silent meditation)
