The wisdom of nature is causality. What we refer to as nature is simply the process of causality happening in this moment. Causality is the operating system in which all things happen in the known universe. This nonsentient process is nondiscriminative and so is an expression of equanimity in action. Therefore wisdom and nature are the same process. Human nature is born of causality and begins its life as the wisdom of equanimity. But, causality will also give rise to the confused and conditioned ego-centered mind that discriminates on the basis of pleasure and pain, like and dislike, want and not want. Then from this, the worrying mind begins. The internal journey is to help move the mind back to its origins within the wisdom of nature.

You will know very clearly if there is someone watching the blank screen or not. If there is a watcher of the blank screen, then you know it is created by the mind. You are the one watching the blank screen. it. If you recognized there is a watcher/witness/observer, it is Manolaya.

What is Manolaya?
Manolaya means temporary masking of thoughts, feelings, emotions, images, etc. It is a blank screen manufactured by the mind. As it is manufactured and not the real witnessing background, it is temporary. The thoughts will come rushing back.

It doesn’t matter if the mind creates it. It is also good that for some time the mind has decided to shut up. It is not barking out thoughts, emotions, images, at you at least. So be grateful for that too. 🙂 But please understand this is just one temporary stage of the mind which we will learn in Buddha’s Jhanas. You are beyond this blank screen. You are the witness.

What do I do with this blank screen?
When you recognize the blank screen, there is no need for any aversion towards it, you do not need to get rid of anything. Space does not negotiate. The witness is like space. It does not negotiate.

Relax and sink back into the witnessing background. You are that witness itself. Sink back into yourself. You don’t have to become the witness, you already ARE the witness.

How do you sink back?
It is just a matter of ‘attention’. Take your attention away from the creativity of the mind and sink into yourself, dear. This is called Manonasha [destruction of the mind].

MANOLAYA V MANONASHA

Manonasha is the total destruction and annihilation of the 'I' thought.

Sri Ramana Maharshi always used to say that mind is nothing but a bundle of thoughts. Among all these thoughts, the root thought is the 'I' thought. All other thoughts can arise only after the ‘I’ thought has arisen.

The 'I’ thought gets connected to every other thought. Because all thoughts can arise as someone else's thought. Who's that someone? The 'I’ thought!

Since 'I’ thought is one that sustains all other thoughts, it's the root thought and mind is nothing but this 'I’ thought. In the absence of 'I’ thought, there's no mind.

Hence the destruction of the 'I’ thought alone is said to be Manonasha.

Manolaya means temporary cessation of mental activities due to swoon, sleep, shock etc.. The mind gets stuck up in a zone for a certain period of time due to the power of Prakriti or nature.

Physically speaking, when the tongue rolls above and gets stuck up with the palate, Manolaya can happen.

There's a beautiful story to illustrate Manolaya, narrated by Sri Ramana Maharshi himself.

A certain religious teacher, an ascetic was seated on the bank of a river. He felt thirsty and asked his disciple to fetch some water.

In the meantime, the ascetic went into a trance like state. The disciple brought the water. But the teacher was not able to drink it on account of his trance. Keeping the water near by, the disciple left never to be seen again.

Many many years passed in this way. Much water had flowed down the river.

When the ascetic came back to the normal plane of consciousness, the first thing he asked was for water. Reason?

The thought of water was foremost in his mind before the ascetic went into a trance. Once the trance was broken, obviously the thought of water was the first to arise.

This is an example of Manolaya. The mind would be temporarily inactive…in abeyance. When it becomes active again, it becomes active with much more renewed vigour.

In Manonasha this doesn't happen. The 'I’ thought being destroyed once and for all, there is no further scope for the mind to arise again.

This is the difference between Manonasha and Manolaya.

SRK When, hearing the name of Hari or Rāma once, you shed tears and your hair stands on end, then you may know for certain that you do not have to perform such devotions as the sandhya any more. Then only will you have a right to renounce rituals; or rather, rituals will drop away of themselves. Then it will be enough if you repeat only the name of Rāma or Hari, or even simply Om." Continuing, he said, "The sandhya merges in the Gayatri, and the Gayatri merges in Om."

Manonasa means that the Avidya or ignorance that covers the mind is destroyed.

There is no ignorance (Avidya) outside the mind. The mind alone is Avidya, the cause of the bondage of transmigration. When that is destroyed, all else is destroyed, and when it is manifested, everything else is manifested.

Talks with Sri Ramana Maharsi, 5th November 1936

Sri Ramana also means the same. Mano-nasa does not mean literally the destruction of the mind. He equates it with Jnana and one-pointedness of the mind. The mind cannot become one-pointed and Jnana cannot dawn unless the Avidya covering is destroyed.

Manolaya means temporary cessation of mental activity.

In this (path of yoga), O scion of the Kurus, there is but one-pointed determination. The thoughts of the irresolute, however, are diverse and unending. (Bhagavad Gita, 2.41)

To them, ever steadfast and serving Me with affection, I grant the yoga of understanding (buddhi yoga), by which they come to Me. (Bhagavad Gita, 10.10)

The man of steady intellect (dhira) should not swerve from his path even when oppressed by other creatures, knowing them to be under the sway of destiny; this is the lesson I have learnt from the earth. (Uddhava Gita, 2.37)

There are two signs of knowledge. First, an unshakable buddhi. No matter how many sorrows, afflictions, dangers, and obstacles one may be faced with, one’s mind does not undergo any change. It is like the blacksmith’s anvil, which receives constant blows from the hammer and still remains unshaken. And second, manliness – very strong grit. (The Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, 410)

"Miracles are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature." St Augustine  a KARR  "The more things change, the more they are the same." A BAM- TYAGA -TITIKSHA B  The first of these qualities is emptiness. In the Dzogchen tradition, this is referred to as the “empty essence.” Our body, our emotions, and our experiences seem so solid, but if we really examine them deeply, we find only a basic openness, a space out of which everything arises. That is what we mean by the term “empty essence. A reduce emotion to awareness Instead, I should recognize the essence of panic, which is pure awareness, then simply drop everything and be with that pure awareness. This same approach can be applied to any experience or situation. For me, it was panic. Maybe for you it is stress, anxiety, depression, anger, or even positive experiences, such as joy and compassion. Whatever we experience, we can simply rest with the empty clarity of awareness itself. We can do this anytime and anywhere, whether we are in a meeting, walking, exercising, driving, or drinking tea. This is how we apply the practice in everyday life. A

What Soothes You? 

Life after the pandemic has left many people more sensitive to monotony, more prone to feelings of sadness or isolation, and overall, simply less happy. But simple steps, actions, and thoughts can inspire energy, joy, and even wonder... 

The New York Times reports on a new book, Enchantment: “It all started with a Post-it note. 

‘Go for a walk,’ it said, the no-nonsense command perched in a prominent spot above Katherine May’s desk. 

Ms. May, a British author who wrote the best-selling memoir ‘Wintering' about a fallow and difficult period of her life, had come across more hard times during the height of the pandemic. She was bored, restless, burned out. Her usual ritual — walking — had fallen away, along with other activities that used to bring her pleasure: collecting pebbles, swimming in the sea, savoring a book. 

‘There was nothing that made the world feel interesting to me,’ Ms. May said in a recent interview with The New York Times. ‘I felt like my head was kind of full and empty at the same time.’ 

In Ms. May’s latest book, ‘Enchantment,’ she describes how a simple series of actions, like writing that note, helped her to discover little things that filled her with wonder and awe — and, in turn, made her feel alive again... 

Entering a state of wonder is akin to using a muscle, Ms. May said. Put yourself in that mind-set more often and it gradually becomes easier. 

First, you must ‘give in to the fascination’ that you feel in everyday moments. For example, Ms. May gets ‘really excited’ when she sees light dance across the surface of her coffee. 

Don’t force it, though. The key, she said, is to keep looking for the things that make you marvel — and have faith that you will encounter them. 

What you find pleasurable might be quite simple: Ms. May has often felt awe when examining a small bug in her garden. 

‘We’ve told ourselves that everything needs to be so big,’ she said. ‘Actually, we can just breathe out and live quite small lives.’ 

Instead of thinking about what you find enchanting, which may feel too difficult to answer, Ms. May suggests asking yourself a different question: What soothes you? 

It might be going on a walk. Or visiting an art museum. Maybe you enjoy watching the shifting clouds...” 

So tell us, what soothes you?
