It is not that we have a short space of time, but that we waste much of it. Life is long enough, and it has been given in sufficiently generous measure to allow the accomplishment of the very greatest things if the whole of it is well invested. But when it is squandered in luxury and carelessness, when it is devoted to no good end, forced at last by the ultimate necessity we perceive that it has passed away before we were aware that it was passing. So it is - the life we receive is not short, but we make it so, nor do we have any lack of it, but are wasteful of it.

Seneca, On the Shortness of Life 1

My nibbas better realise bliss is conditioned.
I dare us to seek the unchanging.
If this fool isn’t mistaken there is but one.
Set me straight, Lecture me otherwise, “I” will weep of joy.

This is what happens when someone attempts to explain the unexplainable(reality) by animating abstract mathematical models(probably formless)
I find this so funny, I don’t know why. If someone think this is a fair representation of the lower cell realm, please explain how they came to this conclusion.

Void weaving part 1.

Faith and certainty, fills the same practical role as ignorance. As they both restrict the capacity to learn or experience beyond itself. One who thinks he knows would not care or even consider to question it.

Adherence to reason or dogma is still adherence. Adherence being the loss of autonomy, a kind of submission to the conditions of an identity or dependent suchness.

This is zerosum statements. It is proof of what it's not.
Proof being some cause of conclusion.
conclusion being the word, conditions being the definition.

In any elaboration, practice or explanation the operators in use is but a few.

The few has the ultimate nature of sameness. Sameness in that the identity of any one of these, is dependent on its relationships with what it is not, it is other dependent. As all operators(or terms) share this attribute as their definition they are not different. As they are dependent on eachother they cannot be exclusively true or false, or real at the expense of another.

Void weaving part 2.

As the nature of mind conditions the independent base of itself regardless of the unreality of these conditions. I find it useful to weave the void so that these empty threads recursively yield the conclusion of rememberering this boundless freedom.

This is not speculation it is derived from simply analysing phenomena. Observing mind(reality).

[
Thus, while ultimate reality is beyond language, "apart from all names and words", noble awakened beings "provisionally invent" linguistic conventions such as "conditioned" and "unconditioned" in order to lead sentient beings to the truth. However these inventions have no absolute existence, they are like the creations of a magician, which only appear to be dualistic, but actually lead to a non-dual transcendent reality.

Suppose a king or royal minister has never heard lute music before. But one day he does hear it and he says: ‘Good man, tell me, what is that enchanting and delightful, intoxicating, ravishing and enthralling sound?’ Then they say to him: ‘That Sir, is the music of the lute.’ So he says: ‘Go, bring me that lute.’ So they bring it to him but he says: ‘Enough of this lute. Bring me the music.’ Then they say to him: ‘Sir, this lute consists of many parts; the belly, the skin, the handle, the frame, the string, the bridge and the effort of the player. And it makes the sound because of them. The sound is because of these various and many parts.’ Then the king breaks the lute into a hundred pieces, splinters it again, burns it, puts the ashes in a heap and winnows them in the wind or washes them away in water in order to find the music. Having done this he finds no music and says: ‘A poor thing indeed is a lute; whatever a lute may be. The world is deceived by such things.’ In the same way, one investigating the body as far as the body goes, investigating feeling, perception, mental constructs and consciousness as far as they go, finds no ‘I’ , no ‘I am’, no ‘Mine.’

What is it that makes meditation so challenging? What is this restlessness that drives our body, speech and mind?

There is some lack of satisfaction, a feeling of unease that is always present. We are constantly occupied with trying to distract us from this feeling.

We habitually use our intellect to try to comprehend it, which, from my humble experience, just creates and puts us on paths right back to the feeling we are trying to escape. As we bind us to conditions like “this is why I’m unhappy” or “if this was true I would be happy”. And then even when these conditions are met, we are back where we started.

What if this feeling of unease is the necessary direction?
And meditation is simply just sitting with this feeling. And what if the less aversion we have to it, the more awake we are.
Holding this view meditation becomes very straight forward and easy.

The reason everybody is saying that you shouldn’t read tantric texts and sadhanas without empowerment, is because to get an empowerment is to get a Guru. Why you need a guru is not because you aren’t capable of realising stuff on your own. But Because tantric texts, like sadhanas, doesn’t in anyway tell you how to actually practice. So the guru and his instructions are not just recommended but they are the actual practice. The texts on their own doesn’t say shit, and if you think they do, well you aren’t real with yourself.

Read somewhere about a young Buddhist. When he attended college, he saw a beautiful women and almost fell for her on the spot. But he told himself, only if she is still beautiful through the coming 3 months will I merry her. However, just within the next couple weeks, he saw her again and she was no longer attractive. So he moved on. He kept doing this with other interesting women he encountered.

He never married.

"The nature of space transcends color and shape,
Neither stained nor changed by black or white.
Likewise, the essence of your mind transcends color and shape,
Unpolluted by black or white qualities, misdeeds or virtues.

Just as the bright, clear essence of the sun
Cannot be obscured by the murk of a thousand aeons,
Likewise, the luminous essence of your mind
Can’t be obscured by aeons of samsara.

Though space is given the appellation “empty,”
There’s nothing in space that can be described as such.
Likewise, though mind is described as luminous,
There’s nothing to give a name, saying it’s like this.

Therefore, the nature of mind has always been like space.
There are no phenomena at all not contained within it."

Tilopa
