Upon death a sentient being leaves everything.
Transcending life and death nothing to rely on.
Buddha guides us onto the path of awakening.
Ultimate goal is to comprehend independence.
Comment:
At the time of one's death nothing to rely on. Transcending life and death nothing is dependable. Guidance of Dharma is like a ferry for temporary transportation. Once the other shore is reached, no boundaries and no ending.
