【THE THREE TYPES OF PERSONS】- Once you have lost this life of leisure and opportunity

So in the leisure and opportunity section from an earlier chapter, the text tells us that death can be included as part of the practice. In other words, once you have obtained this life of leisure and opportunity, you hurry up to apply the teaching. Only once you have reached a certain level of practice that you can escape cyclic existence, then that will be good. Otherwise, you have no idea when this leisure and opportunity is lost, and you won’t have the opportunity to obtain it again! If we can form such a mentality now, the application of meditation practice will absolutely work out. So the author tells us, nothing else can be compared with [mindfulness of leisure and opportunity]. There is only one focus: escape from this cyclic existence, the burning mansion of the three realms [desire, form and formless realms]

道次引导 : 一旦失去暇满人身

所以这个前面暇满人身的时候告诉我们,死也可以并在这个里边。换句话说,得到了这个暇满人身你赶快修,一定要等到你修持已经达到了跳出轮回的量了,那可以。要不然的话,你不晓得什么时候一旦失去了这个的话,你再没有机会修哦!这个时候如果我们能够生起这样的心情来的话,修行是绝对没问题的。所以他告诉我们,其他任何事情绝对不能跟它相比拟,只有一件事情,跳出这个三界轮回、三有火宅。
