If you have to enter a womb, all possible birthplaces will become apparent to you, one after another. There are two alternatives; the transference of your consciousness-principle to a pure Buddha realm, and the selection of the impure sangsaric womb-door. The supernormal transference is directed by thinking: This Sangsāra disgusts me, horrifies me, sickens me; I will act so as to be born at the feet of the Buddha Amitābha, miraculously from amidst a lotus blossom, or the Thickly-Formed Realm, or The Realm of those of Long Hair. By wishing on it, birth will take place in that realm instantaneously.
If you are compelled to enter a sangsaric womb, looking with your supernormal power of foresight over the Continents, choose that in which religion prevails and enter there. If birth is to be obtained over a heap of impurities, a sweet-smelling sensation will attract you towards an impure mass, and birth will be obtained there. In selecting the womb-door thus, good wombs may appear bad and bad wombs may appear good; Enter in the mood of complete impartiality.
If you don't know the art of selecting the womb-door, whichever visions may appear, walk with your head erect. Know that you are in the Bardo. Cast away all weakness and attraction towards your sons and daughters or any relations left behind; they can be of no use to you.
Enter upon the White Light-Path, enter into the great mansions of precious metals and into the delightful gardens. Your journey in the Bardo of Living now begins.
