this is what the bird brought to my window this morning.
what did yours????
(not preaching here, i just thought it utterly beautiful....)
The Arising of Sudden Certainty:
?
?
When a calm & collected mind is firmly fixed on Transience,
there gradually accumulates understanding of the real?nature
of the clusters of?clinging. This complex of only?mind-&-form,
- mere mental & physical phenomena -?ever arising & ceasing in
a passing flux,?is suddenly penetrated as?both insubstantial and
essentially impersonal ...
?
This?all new sensation of 'alien remoteness - foreign & artificial'
of both internal & external?elements,?naturally induces?a certain
disgust & repulsiveness about?this whole fleeting scenario ...
Right there & then is noted: "Oohh really?what emerges also ceases!
How futile to?search?happiness in what can only be?disappointing!!!"
?
This flashing arising of Right View is irreversible &?for the first
time in this infinite cycle of existence,?is attachment to the clusters of?clinging momentarily eradicated ...
?
The belief in a constant person, soul or self cannot be maintained...
Egoism is thus cut at the very root &?severely detrimental behaviour
rooted in this egotism,?can never again be done. Here the ways which
lead to?future bad states of misery & woe?are forever left all behind!
?
Knowledge?associated with the path of Stream-Entry has been gained!
When?the last trace of sceptical doubt?about the reality of the unique
event of Buddha's?Enlightenment is substituted by firm conviction?&
attachment to the?opinion that mere rules & rituals can?fulfil mental purification is relinquished, then the door to the deathless opens up?...
Safe & assured is one of a maximum of 7 rounds before Awakening!
Like coming home from a far, far?sea journey by approaching?the safe
harbor at the other shore! Never again to return or die !!!
Silent & serene bliss is the stilled peace ahead ...
