Triad of Attention
Attention to Body, Breath, Life Force, Chi, external impressions, sensations of physical reality (Shamatha and Vipashyana)
Active attention to Feelings consciously arise compassion and good will for all beings, think of teachers, community, aspire to selfless service, etc.
Attention to Mind, allow mind to rest, follow thoughts till they disappear, etc (Mahamudra and Dzogchen)
Triad of Being
Be in the Moment, everything you see is impermanent, in flux
Non-Identification Don't Identify with what arises, this is "not me", use questions, Koans to wake up, (Vipashyana)
Be receptive, open, and non-judgmental, spacious, photographic, awake
Triad of Inner Work (called the Law of Three in Gurdjieffian Tradition)
Create and Intention or Aim
Work with resistance, negativity, fear, anger, hatred, etc
Cutting Through or transform obstacles, concepts, and fixations
That's how I organize it, but it's one movement of consciousness really, not nine separate things.
Practically, don't bite off more than you can chew. Go slow, and try one thing at a time.
I have spent a lot of time ruminating over this, but it came to me in a kind of vision like a package of information.
This a fourth way system, a hybrid of traditional Buddhist ideas combined with Western and other esoteric systems.
Realization or enlightenment occurs in moments of Totality, in other words total awareness of ordinary reality.
Totality produces Singularity. Singularity is through the rabbit hole Alice!!
Totality and Singularity are purely experiential.
