Part 2b - Not being steadfast, even if we have the freedoms and favors

Even though we may have attained all of these freedoms, by craving samsaric happiness even a little:

If we accomplish no benefit within this life,
We may not hear later even the words "the higher realms."
For a long time cycling again and again in the lower realms,
Having no knowledge of what we should accept and reject,
We will certainly go upon a mistaken path,
Wandering in samsara without beginning or end.

If within this life, so good to obtain, we do not practice the beneficial holy Dharma, by the power of karma we will be born in the lower realms. There we shall not so much as hear the words "higher realms," let alone going there.

Entering into Enlightened Conduct (Bodhisattva caryaavatara, spyod a’jug) says:

As for my behavior which is of such a kind, If I shall not even gain a human body,
It goes without saying I cannot go to higher realms. For if I shall not even gain a human body,
I shall do only evil, and there can be no good.
Now when there is a chance for excellent behavior, If, even so, good actions are not what I perform, What will I do then, when it is the time
Of the stupefying sufferings of the lower realms?
If we go to the lower realms like that, we shall not be liberated for a very long time. The same text says: Even in the course of a thousand million kalpas
I will not so much as hear the words, "the higher realms."
