Aspiration

Confronting this new sense of reality of the Buddhist path and its explanation of how things work, the potential fate of myself and those I love, not to mention that of the countless other sentient beings out there, becomes pretty scary. Without realizing the truth of what's going on, veiled by ignorance, so many will be reborn in the lower realms, and those that attain higher rebirths will eventually fall. May I be like Chenrezi with his countless arms rescuing beings from their fate. May I not lose this sense of urgency.
