.The first is commonly called dead water because ithas attachments the second is praised as  The Great Life because it is illuminationwithout attachments it is the illuminating Void.In this, there are many degrees, many steps.It is necessary to arrive first at theilluminated aspect of consciousness and later, at objective knowledge, at the illuminatingVoid.Buddhism says:  Form does not differ from the Void, and the Void does not differ fromform.Form is the Void and the Void is form.Things exist because the Void exists, and because things exist, they are the Void. Voidis a clear and precise term which describes the non- substantial and non-personal natureof beings, and is an indication, a sign of the complete absence of the pluralized I.Onlywhen there is a complete absence of the  I can we experience what is real, that which isnot of time, that which transforms radically.The Void and existence complement eachother, embrace each other, include each other.They are never exclusive; they nevernegate each other.Ordinary people whose consciousness is asleep, perceive angles, lines, and surfacessubjectively, but never the complete bodies from inside and outside, from the top andfrom the bottom, from the front and from the back, etc.They can perceive the void aspectof things even less.The person who has awakened his consciousness and who has an empty, illuminatedmind has eliminated all subjective elements from his perceptions, and he perceivescomplete bodies, perceives the void aspect of each thing.This is the non-discriminative doctrine of the middle path, the unification of the Void andexistence.The Void is that which has no name.that which is real.that which is thetruth.that which some call the Tao, others Inn, others Zen, Allah, Brahma, or God.Thename is of no importance.Someone who awakens his consciousness experiences the tremendous truth that he is nolonger a slave, and, with pain, is able to verify that people walking down the street aredreaming and appear as true walking cadavers.If this awakening of consciousness becomes continuous by means of inner self-remembering from moment to moment, then one arrives at objective consciousness, atpure consciousness, at the void aspect of mind.The illuminated consciousness is51 Buddha s Necklace Samael Aun Weornecessary to experience what is real and reduce the pluralized Ito cosmic dust, but thisstate is still on the edge of samsara (the painful world in which we live).When he is in a state of awakened consciousness, the initiate has taken a formidable step,but unfortunately is still troubled by the monistic idea.He is incapable of cutting all thosesubtle threads, which link him to certain things, to certain damaging effects.He has notarrived at the other shore.When the initiate cuts the ties, which, in one form or another,bind him to the illuminated consciousness, he arrives at perfect illumination, at theilluminating Void, free and entirely without any substance.It is extremely difficult, but not impossible, to reach the exact center of the mind, toarrive at the illuminating Void, to acquire objective knowledge.Any Gnostic can achieveit if he works on himself.The illuminating Void is not nothingness.The illuminating Void is free life in movement.The Void is that which is, always has been, and always will be.The Void is beyond timeand eternity.The mind has 300,000 receptive clans or centers, all of which should vibrate at the sametone without any effort.The mind is feminine in nature and is therefore accustomed toreceive, assimilate, and comprehend.The natural state of the mind is receptive silent, andquiet like a deep, tranquil ocean.The thinking process is an abnormal accident, whoseoriginal cause is the pluralized I.When the mind is free from all thoughts and is silent, the 300,000 clans then vibrate atthe same tone, without any effort.When the mind is silent, the new, that which is real,comes to us.52 Buddha s Necklace Samael Aun WeorCHAPTER 18THE CHINESE MASTER, WU WENThe great master, Wu Wen, began his meditation practices under the wise direction ofMaster Tuo Weng.His first work of meditation was accomplished with the following koan or mysterioussaying:  It is not the mind, it is not the Buddha, it is nothing. Wu Wen, seated in theoriental style, concentrated his mind on this saying, trying to understand its deepsignificance.This koan, or enigmatic statement, is difficult to comprehend, and after we meditate on itwith the earnest goal of experiencing the truth enclosed in each word of the mysterioussaying, it is evident that the mind, unable to grasp its significance, is conquered and falls,as if fatally wounded Then it resigns, remaining quiet and silentMaster Wu Wen was happy to meet Yung Feng and Yueh Shan, as well as some otherbrothers, and they all made an agreement to work to achieve illumination.After some time, Wu Wen went to Master Huai Shi, who taught him to meditate using thesacred mantra WU.This mantra is chanted mentally with the letter  U repeated twice U.U [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
