[05] Aspiration: There is still time to increase Aspiration to reach Pure Land.
[06] Practice: There is still time to have more sincere Practice of mindfulness of Buddha.

[08] Improvement: There is the possibility to have less suffering now, and towards the end with improved Practice.

[10] Rewards: There is the possibility of reaching Pure Land soon, with no more ageing, sickness and death, with immeasurable life, ultimate peace and bliss.
