I have posted already there is difference between formal thinking/reason and being from the silence, the silent knowledge, i.e. living in the silence, whats the point here.....



GL: very good post GL. To the point. I think we must give our whole heart to this practice of present moment. Rigpa in tibetan. This is also same for the zen=zazen. Or the Now of the warrior-seer. Thank You for this post. Yes, too much formal thinking in a short period of time. But then, after we have cleared it all up sufficiently, then we submerse ourselves, dive deep into long period of inner silence. I just had this little exercise in a formal thought here, posted about what i wanted to post and then i can simply shut down.



I am aware that You view my posts. In the issue of understanding, this is a matter how we are sincere to ourselves. As the Universe wants us to be sincere, sincere. Universe wants only one sincere moment, and then.. to be sincere. And it wants us to be responsible men.



QS: frankly, when i speak about these subjects those are only ultra-short notes. Likewise You wanted to speak about quantum gravity or quantum electrodynamics, and explain it in a few sentences. Castaneda has called it "sorcery 101".



So the word karma (kamma).. in short its simply what one does.. what he/she become.. karma is the action like sow a thought, you get a deed, then habit, then destiny and this is your life. Its a very blatant fact. You get what you really do/practice/work on or not.



If we look deeper, for example at cyclic being or mutuel interdepence or connectivity of being, whats still also only an idea..



we get then to the core of issue of the "rebirth" cycle, and the corresponding term is: Pratītyasamutpāda

Pratītyasamutpāda is this mechanism/law in reality.





From the remainderless fading and cessation of ignorance comes the cessation of (volitional) fabrications. From the cessation of (volitional) fabrications comes the cessation of consciousness. From the cessation of consciousness comes the cessation of name-and-form. From the cessation of name-and-form comes the cessation of the six sense media. From the cessation of the six sense media comes the cessation of contact. From the cessation of contact comes the cessation of feeling. From the cessation of feeling comes the cessation of craving. From the cessation of craving comes the cessation of clinging/sustenance. From the cessation of clinging/sustenance comes the cessation of becoming. From the cessation of becoming comes the cessation of birth.

Yes, Yoga and Buddhism (Nikaya, Zen, Tantric) are not toltec nagualism. I know these "systems", the mechanisms, the differences.



I know what a result of complete recapitulation brings for a seer.
