At this time, I must shift my mind consciousness and immediately practice the seven joint preliminary practices, pondering deeply:
1) it is difficult to obtain a human body;
2) death and impermanence;
3) the sufferings of samsara;
4) the inevitability of karmic retribution;
5) the true dharma is now available;
6) cutting off attachment to self and persistently cultivating myself; and
7) saving myself and others.
H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, the Supreme and Unsurpassable Mahamudra of Liberation
