Pregnant Moment

Listen well, oh offspring of average folks, as I tell you of the time of the gap between this and the next - that time which is called death. Prepare yourself so you will know how to begin again or not.

As you enter the next essential stage of your development, you must remember your practice during life and follow your right path.

In that pregnant moment

all is sublime

Grey becomes gold.

Everything you have known gets lost in time.

The pain which you have long suffered morphs into gentle caresses. Loneliness passes; the end begins.

Listen... Listen... Do you hear the violins? Serenading you to follow behind like the pied fiddler, and now it is time to choose. Will you follow along with curiosity? Will you see where the music leads you? Or will you get distracted by lights dancing far off and pursue them with your transforming self? You will be vulnerable in this bardo, and you must choose well. You will know the right choice by the sensation on your skin, tingles chasing over your skin after you have ceased to breathe. Oh kid of resourceful family, rise up and do what you gotta do...

Approach with curiosity, not fear. Believe that you will be something and then go become it.
