How to cut the tie of Samsara?


There are two ways to purify one's obscurations; conventional and ultimate.  The conventional way is to engage in the practices of visualizing, chanting, engendering remorse, and making resolutions. The ultimate practice is to purify the deluded state of mind by means of the three fold purity, by simply rest in  rigpa, in non dual awareness.

 The connects one's mind with all the negative karma or imprints from the past is conceptual thinking !!!
The moment conceptual thinking is absent there is nothing to tie samsara together; it is cut, just like a rope that has been cut cannot bind. Look into what samasara is based on, and see it is the moment to moment delusion. This string of deluded moments is known as the continuous instant of delusion, and is the basis of samsara.  Among the five aggregates, it is called formation. The only thing that can really cut samsara is the moment of rigpa.  Rigpa totally makes samsara fall apart. ( p.103)
