Whatever Dharma practice I study, I should complete it with strong confidence.

(7.47) First, I should examine what is to be done,
To see whether I can do it or not.
If I am unable to do it, I should not start it;
But, once I start something, I should never turn back.

(7.48) Otherwise this habit will carry into my future lives
And my non-virtue and suffering will continue to increase.
Moreover, other virtuous actions will take a long time to accomplish
And will yield only meagre results.

The Iron Ball

At Sāvatthī.

Then Venerable Ānanda went up to the Buddha, bowed, sat down to one side, and said to him:

“Sir, do you have personal experience of going to the Brahmā realm by psychic power with a mind-made body?”

“I do, Ānanda.”

“But do you have personal experience of going to the Brahmā realm by psychic power with this body made up of the four primary elements?”

“I do, Ānanda.”

“It’s incredible and amazing that the Buddha is capable of going to the Brahmā realm by psychic power with a mind-made body! And that he has personal experience of going to the Brahmā realm by psychic power with this body made up of the four primary elements!”

“Ānanda, the Realized Ones are incredible and have incredible qualities. They’re amazing and have amazing qualities.

Sometimes the Realized One submerges his body in his mind and his mind in his body. He meditates after sinking into a perception of bliss and lightness in the body. At that time his body becomes lighter, softer, more workable, and more radiant.

Suppose there was an iron ball that had been heated all day. It’d become lighter, softer, more workable, and more radiant. In the same way, sometimes the Realized One submerges his body in his mind and his mind in his body. He meditates after sinking into a perception of bliss and lightness in the body. At that time his body becomes lighter, softer, more workable, and more radiant.

Sometimes the Realized One submerges his body in his mind and his mind in his body.

Suppose there was a light tuft of cotton-wool or kapok.

Replacing Weakness with Strength

7/28/2021

0 Comments

 

I have been well-aware of the trauma I have suffered at different times in my life and the impact that it has had on me.  The creation of fear, feeing there's something wrong with me, insecurity, feeling that I'm not worthy of love or that love is conditional.  Those are certainly core emotions/perspectives that have fed my samsara and which, through the grace of my Buddhist practice, I have been able to free myself from over the course of many years.

But as a reader of my blog will know, there are still moments, all too regularly, when my mind sneaks up on me, causes me to act in ways not in my best interest, causing me and those dearest to me suffering.     Sitting recently with this fact of my life, after someone brought weakness to my attention the night before, I realized with some amazement that I have never used the word "weak" or "weakness" to describe any feelings of mine or the the results, the impact of my trauma.

That word was taboo to me.   I could face all other maladies but that.   Why?  Because it was totally against my self-image.   I had built a self-image of being strong.   And professionally, in my relationship with my work life, I was indeed strong because I was certain of the quality and power of my mental ability.

This reality of my professional life was carried over and was a façade for my personal life.   I knew I had problems stemming from my childhood.   I knew I was insecure, etc. , but I was not weak.

And because I did not identify this affliction, this emotion, all the work that I have done did not heal it, did not free myself from its control.   I have written often that one must identify and name the emotion or action that one has the intent of being free of.   Global intents don't work.

So now I have named the emotion, "feeling weak. "  And I have found in my meditation that so many things about my daily actions relating to others have become clear to me.   I have stopped lying to myself and to them about what I was feeling when I did what I did.

There is strength and power in just naming and recognizing the force operating against your best interests.    But the real key is when you replace that force with a positive force, in this case "strength."

Recognizing the strength of my true Buddha nature, my true self, my heart has been part of my mantra for decades, but it was never something I focused on; it was just stated.   Now, however, I have focused on that strength and the light and faith that it is based on.   My strength comes from being sustained by the love of my Buddha nature, my divine essence, within me.

I am aware now in my meditation, that it is only my strength that gives me the ability to be present, to not engage the mind's endless "what ifs."  And when I am not in touch with my strength, when my feeling of weakness is in control, I am lost to all my spiritual intents and act towards myself and others in decidedly harmful ways.

​In my daily meditation, and throughout the day, I am watering the seeds of my strength, keeping it uppermost in my mind, in my awareness.   It is the beginning of yet another new day, a new plateau in walking the spiritual path.

b Renounce the Thought of Seeing Samsara as a Beautiful Park

Rinpoche begins this teaching by reminding us that the perfect human rebirth doesn’t last long. This body is like a machine—breathing in and out—and can stop at any time. Why does the body keep working? Karma. How long the breath lasts is also due to karma. It can stop at any time, we have to remember this. Some students have even died while using the bathroom. It can happen at any time, and when you don’t expect it, so while you are still breathing, make your life most beneficial for others by doing everything with bodhichitta

The two basic practices in your life should be the two bodhichittas: absolute bodhichitta and conventional bodhichitta. Bodhichitta is the two wishes; one is the wish to benefit sentient beings, and one is the wish to achieve enlightenment. The real purpose of life is to benefit numberless sentient beings, to free them from suffering and bring them to enlightenment by yourself. Therefore, you need to achieve enlightenment. This is the motivation for listening to the teachings.

In Buddhism, bodhicitta, "enlightenment-mind", is the mind that strives toward awakening, empathy, and compassion for the benefit of all sentient beings

####################

b It is so important to know that samsaric pleasures are actually the suffering of change. Most students meditate on the suffering of pain, but they don’t meditate on how samsaric pleasures are in the nature of suffering, or on pervasive compounding suffering. This third type of suffering, the pervasive compounding suffering, is the most important to meditate on; it is the suffering of samsara. When you are free of this type of suffering, you become free from the other two sufferings, the suffering of pain and the suffering of change.

Please bless me to generate a strong wish to be liberated
From the endless and terrifying great ocean of samsara.

Having renounced the thought seeing samsara,
Which is difficult to bear like being in prison, as a beautiful park,

If there were no negative imprints left on the mental continuum by ignorance, there would be no projection of a real I. Rinpoche explains how the thought focuses on the aggregates—form, feeling, cognition, compositional factors, and consciousness—and that is the phenomenon or base that is merely labeled “I.” When that happens, it is extremely fine, so subtle, Rinpoche emphasizes. It is not that the I doesn’t exist. The I exists, but it is like it doesn’t exist. The negative imprints left by ignorance on the continuation of our consciousness decorate the I that just now was merely imputed, projecting true existence, existing from its own side. So we think, “This is real. This is true!” Believing, holding onto that—that is ignorance. As you are creating ignorance, you are creating the root of samsara, the root of all suffering. This is from ignorance holding the I as truly existent.

our hallucinated mind also makes up pleasure. If you check up on samsaric pleasure, you can see it is the basis of all suffering. Your mind labels it as pleasure. In reality, it is a hallucination, made up by the mind according to the different things an individual wants. Traveling, drugs, sex, going into the mountains—these various things are labeled pleasure according to the individual, but in reality there is nothing there at all. You have to recognize the hallucination as a hallucination. If you don’t look at the dream as a dream, you believe it is real. Then all of the problems of anger, ignorance, and attachment, all the delusions, arise.

What are the Vedas? How did Vedas come to the world? Who wrote the Vedas for the first time in history?

Vedas are the oldest scriptures of Vedic Hinduism. They were composed orally and passed for generations until they were written down.

The oldest of the Vedas- the Rigveda - a collection of hymns on Indo European gods was composed by Indo-Aryans around 1500 BCE to 1200 BCE

The mythology sung in Vedas has roots in the Proto Indo European mythology.

How did Vedas come to the world ?

The Indo Europeans worshipped forces of nature such as Sun, fire, water and wind.

So they began composing songs in praise of those gods representing the forces of nature.

These hymns were orally passed on to their descendants. Thats how they came to the world.

Rigveda of Aryans,Perun Vedas of the Slavs, the Lithuanian Dainas and the Celtic hymns all sang praise of Indo European gods.

Some of the Indo European deities they sang to :

Divine Father :Vedic: Dyaus Pitr, Greek: Zeus pater

Illyrian : Dei-pátrous, Roman : Jupiter (Djous patēr), Scythian :Papaios for Zeus, Palaic: Tiyas papaz

Credit : Starkey comics

Divine Twins :

Vedic : Divó nápātā (the Asvins) , Lithuanian: Dievo sūneliai (the Asveiniai) Latvian : the Dieva dēli, Greek : the Diós-kouroi (Castor and Pollux)Celtic : the "Dioskouroi”

Thunder god :

Indra (Vedic), Indra (Avestan), Thor (Germanic ) Tarḫunna( Hittite), Taranis( Celtic), Perun( Slavic), Perkunas ( Baltic )

Goddess of Dawn :

Uṣas (Vedic), Eos (Greek), Aurora (Roman), Aushrine (Baltic), Auseklis (Latvian)

God of Rain :

Varuṇa (Vedic), Odinn/Wodan (Germanic), Ouranous (Greek)

God of thunder and rain :

Parjanya (Vedic), Perkunas (Baltic), Perunu (Slavic), Fjorgyn (Germanic).

---

Indo European Oral Tradition :

All Indo Europeans had Oral tradition of singing hymns to their gods, so apart from the Vedic Aryans who migrated to Indian subcontinent, other Indo Europeans also composed their own Vedas.

Celtic Druids :

The Celtic people were Indo Europeans who were spread throughout Europe.

Celtic priests were called druids, meaning “knowers of the tree, or truth.” They memorized the entire knowledge of the Celts and passed it on orally, forbidding written transmission.

They were divided into several classes: seers, judges, royal advisors, hymn chanters, poet bards, sacrificers. They were also astronomers, healers and magicians.

• Druids are called the Brahmins of the west.
• Druids studied for 20 years in strict discipleship to master their oral, ritual, law, science and psychic arts.
• Druids memorized extremely lengthy poetic sagas that communicated spiritual metaphysics and civic laws. The poetic metre was a fixed syllable line, free form, with 3-part cadence at end.
• Druids practiced breathing, posture and meditation techniques that gave degrees of ecstacy, often accompanied by intense heat in the body.
• Druids studied stellar motion, navigation and contemplated such abstracts as the size and nature of the universe.[1]

The Celtic God of thunder was Taranus who carried thunderbolts. God of fire is Aedh (pronounced uh-ee), meaning fire. The sun Deity is Sulios. The Celtic word for invocation is gutuater.

Vedic God of rain and thunder was Indra who carried thunderbolts. Vedic God of fire is Agni, meaning fire. The solar Being is Surya. The Sanskrit term for invocation is hotar.

The central Celtic ritual was the fire sacrifice, conducted in geometric pits with offerings of herbs, mead and flour cakes, conducted by chanting druids.

Celts believed that

“The Original teachings of the Druids emanated from the Seven Sages or Sextendiriones, the Stars of Ursa Major also called Eburoi, the Boars.

They were the mind sons of the God Dagodeuos called Uesos (Knower), Uocomarcos (Research), Sulacsus (Wisdom), Uirionos (Truth), Ueros (True), Andiatis (Superior), and Uindonos (Whitely)” [2]

In Vedic mythology : they are known as Sapta Rishi

---

In short : Proto Indo Europeans believed that the hymns they sing for the gods (who are personification of forces of nature), were authored by super humans or Sages or Seers who had divine revelations.

Ramacharitmanas by Tulsidas is by no means a word-to-word copy of the Valmiki Ramayana nor an abridged re-telling of the latter. Ramcharitmanas has elements from many other Ramayanas written earlier in Sanskrit and other Indian dialects as well as stories from Puranas.

Tulsidas himself never writes Ramcharitmanas as being a retelling of Valmiki Ramayana. He calls the epic Ramcharitmanas as the story of Rama, that was stored in the mind (Mānasa) of Shiva before he narrated the same to His wife Parvati. Tulsidas claims to have received the story through his guru, Narharidas. Tulsidas was a naive (Acheta) child and the story was stored in his mind (Mānasa) for long before he wrote it down as Ramcharitmanas.

Most importantly, Valmiki Maharshi wouldn't mind it.

BREATHING MEDITATIONS

Generally, the purpose of breathing meditation is to calm the mind and develop inner peace. We can use breathing meditations alone or as a preliminary practice to reduce our distractions before engaging in a Lamrim meditation

A Simple Breathing Meditation

The first stage of meditation is to stop distractions and make our mind clearer and more lucid. This can be accomplished by practising a simple breathing meditation. We choose a quiet place to meditate and sit in a comfortable position. We can sit in the traditional cross-legged posture or in any other position that is comfortable. If we wish, we can sit in a chair. The most important thing is to keep our back straight to prevent our mind from becoming sluggish or sleepy.

The first stage of meditation is to stop distractions and make our mind clearer and more lucid.

We sit with our eyes partially closed and turn our attention to our breathing. We breathe naturally, preferably through the nostrils, without attempting to control our breath, and we try to become aware of the sensation of the breath as it enters and leaves the nostrils. This sensation is our object of meditation. We should try to concentrate on it to the exclusion of everything else.

At first, our mind will be very busy, and we might even feel that the meditation is making our mind busier; but in reality we are just becoming more aware of how busy our mind actually is. There will be a great temptation to follow the different thoughts as they arise, but we should resist this and remain focused single-pointedly on the sensation of the breath. If we discover that our mind has wandered and is following our thoughts, we should immediately return it to the breath. We should repeat this as many times as necessary until the mind settles on the breath.

Benefits of Meditation

If we practise patiently in this way, gradually our distracting thoughts will subside and we will experience a sense of inner peace and relaxation. Our mind will feel lucid and spacious and we will feel refreshed. When the sea is rough, sediment is churned up and the water becomes murky, but when the wind dies down the mud gradually settles and the water becomes clear. In a similar way, when the otherwise incessant flow of our distracting thoughts is calmed through concentrating on the breath, our mind becomes unusually lucid and clear. We should stay with this state of mental calm for a while.

Even though breathing meditation is only a preliminary stage of meditation, it can be quite powerful. We can see from this practice that it is possible to experience inner peace and contentment just by controlling the mind, without having to depend at all upon external conditions.

So much of the stress and tension we normally experience comes from our mind

When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still, a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within. This feeling of contentment and well-being helps us to cope with the busyness and difficulties of daily life. So much of the stress and tension we normally experience comes from our mind, and many of the problems we experience, including ill health, are caused or aggravated by this stress.

Just by doing breathing meditation for ten or fifteen minutes each day, we will be able to reduce this stress. We will experience a calm, spacious feeling in the mind, and many of our usual problems will fall away. Difficult situations will become easier to deal with, we will naturally feel warm and well disposed towards other people, and our relationships with others will gradually improve.

 Bhagavad-gita, Chapter 2, Text 14 Lord Sri Krishna mercifully instructs us to tolerate all the dualities of material existence:

 

mātrā-sparśās tu kaunteya
śītoṣṇa-sukha-duḥkha-dāḥ
āgamāpāyino 'nityās
tāṁs titikṣasva bhārata

"O son of Kuntī, the nonpermanent appearance of happiness and distress, and their disappearance in due course, are like the appearance and disappearance of winter and summer seasons. They arise from sense perception, O scion of Bharata, and one must learn to tolerate them without being disturbed."

 

This means that we should not base our happiness on the material situation that we find ourselves in because to do so guarantees that we will be unhappy. We should instead base our happiness on having a loving relationship with Lord Sri Krishna and His devotees. In this way we will able to weather all of the storms of this material existence and be fully qualified to enter into the spiritual world at the time of our deaths.

It is a type of pareidolia, which is seeing meaning in an object, pattern or shape when there is none.

Face pareidolia is so strong that even vague patterns of shadows can appear to contain faces, such as the pictures of the region of Mars called Cydonia (see below).

While seeing faces in all kinds of objects was once thought a sign of psychosis or a type of disorder, nowadays pareidolia is viewed as a normal part of human experience.

“Don't believe everything you think. Thoughts are just that – thoughts.”
(Allan Lokos)

###################

If life is an illusion created by our consciousness why does everything look and feel solid?

“Don't believe everything you think. Thoughts are just that – thoughts.”
(Allan Lokos)

Everything looks and feels solid because the experience of solidity is a genetically adaptive kind of consciousness. On the African savannah, an intelligent ape who paused to reflect that the advancing lions within her world-simulation were phantoms of her mind didn’t pass on her genes to a new generation of budding philosophers. Contrast the perceptual naïve realist, who lived to reflect another day.

Physical objects can look and feel solid in a dream, too. If you have a lucid dream, then you can recognise that solid-seeming material objects – and your solid-seeming physical body – are modes of consciousness, i.e. facets of your mind and the phenomenal world-simulation it runs. Your world-simulation plays out within a theoretically-inferred transcendental skull, as distinct from the empirical skull whose contours can be felt with your virtual hands. Unlike during waking consciousness, you can mentally manipulate the furniture of lucid dreams in defiance of the laws of physics. Or rather, the vehicle of simulation remains lawful, but the contents of your simulation can be miraculous. Of course, most dreams aren’t lucid, just psychotic.

What happens when you wake up?
If naïve realism is true, then your awake mind-brain now perceives its local environment. Once again, everything looks and feels solid. Yet how your mind-brain is supposed to penetrate its enclosing meninges and burrow though the walls of its encasing skull is mysterious.

For better or worse, naïve realism is a pre-scientific myth. Your mind-brain runs an autobiographical world-simulation. “Waking up” robs the simulation of its autonomy, not its nature. A realistic interpretation of the mathematical formalism of our best scientific theory of the world, quantum mechanics, is inconsistent with perceptual direct realism. So too is modern neuroscience – and even armchair reflection. Mind-independent reality may be theoretically conjectured via an inference to the best explanation – it’s not perceived. Inferred external reality partly selects the solid-seeming contents of your world-simulation, indirectly, via the peripheral nervous inputs that bombard your awake mind-brain. Yet all you ever know are some of the intrinsic properties of matter and energy.

Inferential realism about external reality should not be confused with solipsism. A host of egocentric virtual worlds exist akin to your own, most of them nonhuman. These skull-bound and no less solid-seeming virtual worlds differ primarily in the identity of their protagonist. Selfish DNA gives each of us a starring role in our own virtual world – a genetically adaptive illusion, to be sure, but a flattering incentive to overestimate one’s role in the great scheme of things.

Inferential realism should not be confused with idealism. The intrinsic nature of the mind-independent universe that the equations of physics also describe may be either experiential or non-experiential. Science doesn't know. I don’t know either, although I explore the possibility our materialist intuitions may be wrong. If our materialist intuitions are right, then we face the impossible Hard Problem of consciousness.

So is life an illusion?
Well, recognising that you are running a world-simulation populated by zombies can be disconcerting – even if you believe (as I do) that the zombies of your waking consciousness are the cartoon avatars of sentient beings in a wider reality. Natural selection didn’t design human primates to regard interpersonal relationships as a branch of speculative metaphysics. A much harder illusion to fathom, let alone dispel, is semantic realism and magical theories of reference. Together with memory, logico-linguistic thought and the tools of mathematical physics allow one – seemingly at any rate – to transcend solipsism-of-the-here-and-now and glimpse the multiverse revealed by modern science.

How is semantic meaning possible? The existence of abstract objects such as propositional content seems impossible to reconcile with naturalism.
Alas, this mystery has defeated me.
