The human body, at peace with itself, Is more precious than the rarest gem. Cherish your body - it is yours this time only. The human form is won with difficulty, It is easy to lose. All worldly things are brief, Like lightning in the sky; This life you must know As the tiny splash of a raindrop; A thing of beauty that disappears Even as it comes into being. Therefore set your goal; Make use of every day and night To achieve it. With these inspiring words as a starting point, Sanghagita explores the practice of The Four Reminders, the preliminary practice of the Mind Training. How would we act in every ordinary moment if we were Enlightened? How can we act to be more Enlightened? This powerful, pithy teaching tells us how to do just that.
