BANGA GNANA-WISDOM 19
IN MY PRIEVIOUS LECTURE, I WAS SPEAKING ABOUT THE ERUTION & DESTRUCTION OF “SANSKARA” WHICH IS THE TURNING POINT. THIS IS THE NEXT PONT IN THE PATHWAY. BEFORE ALL, I MUST TELL YOU WHAT THE “SANSKARAS” ARE. ONCE YOUR MEDITATION IS IMPROVED, YOU CAN SEE EVERYTHING HAS A FORMATION & DESTRUCTION.
WHAT YOU SEE
WHAT YOU HEAR
WHAT YOU SMELL
WHAT YOU TASTE
WHAT YOU SENSE
WHAT YOU THINK SUBJECTS TO COME UP AS A MENTAL FORMATION IN MIND. IT CAN ONLY BE SEEN BY MEDITATION. THIS APPEARANCE OF MENTAL FORMATION OR MENTAL REFLECTION IS CALLED “SANSKARA”. THIS “SANSKARA” IS THE ONE (ONE AT A TIME, NOT ALL IN THE SAME TIME) MAKE YOU TO SEE, HEAR, SMELL, TASTE, SENSE, THINK. WITHOUT A “SANSKARA”YOU CAN NOT DO ANY OF THE JOBS. THESE 6 “SANSKARAS”SHOW YOU A WORLD & MAKE YOU TO BELIVED THE WORLED IS IN OUTSIDE TO YOU. BUT IT IS ACTULLY FORMS WITHIN YOU, IN YOUR MIND. ONE “SANSKARA” HAS MANY QUALITIES, 52 IN NUMBER, FROM WHICH A QUALITY CALLED “AVIJJA OR DELUSION” MAKES THIS OUTSIDE SHOWING. THIS IS HOW THE “SANSKARA” IS WORKING. SEE! CATCHING THE WORLD FROM OUTSIDE IS REALLY A STUPID. WORLD YOU MEAN IS ACTUALLY A SENSATION OR A FEELING, BUT YOU THINK IT HAS MANY HARD OBJECTS. SO YOU RUN HERE & THERE TO CATCH THEM UNTIL YOU DIE WITHOUT KNOWING THE WORLD IS WITHIN YOU.
ONCE YOU IMPROVE YOUR MIND UPTO THIS LEVEL, THEN YOU BEGINS TO SEE ONLY THE DESTRUCTION PART OF A “SANSKARA”WITHOUT SHOWING FORMATION. THE WHOLE WORLD DESTRUCTS OR BURSTS CONSTANTLY WITHOUT A STOP. YOU FEEL A LITTLE ANNOYING BY LOOKING AT IT. BUT YOU MUST GO OBSERVING IT WITHOUT A BACK LASH OR A FEAR. THEN IT WILL COME TO THE NEXT VERY IMPORTANT STEP CALLED “SANKAROPEKSHA GNANA”. DETAILS NEXT TIME.
