Inquire towards the cultural and spiritual belief of countless reincarnations of a permanent infinite immortal individual self existence

Inquire towards the truth of everything, including all kinds of teachings/interpretations/transcriptions/translations of yoga and buddhism coming from everyone and everywhere as well as all kinds of worldly cultural and spiritual beliefs/values/practices, upon coming in contact with all kinds of inputs, information, and knowledge, including all that is here, regardless of agreeable or disagreeable to the mind based on the intellectual reasoning power functioning under the influence of the existing particular type of inherited and adopted cultural/spiritual/religious/ancestry/political/philosophical beliefs/values/practices in the mind,

to be purifying and quieting the restless impure modification of the mind,

to free the mind from being conditioned and influenced by the existing intellectual reasoning power or judgment based on the existing knowledge/understanding being conditioned and influenced by any particular type of inherited and adopted cultural/spiritual/religious/ancestry/political/philosophical beliefs/values/practices,

to be performing self inquiry to inquire towards what the selfless mind perceives/acknowledges/thinks/believes/identifies as its unique individual permanent independent infinite immortal self existence/acknowledgement/identification of 'I', that the selfless mind acknowledges/thinks/believes/identifies as what it is, or, what and who 'I' am,

to attain direct self realization towards the truth of Impermanence (ceaseless selfless impermanent changes in all and everything) and Selflessness (there is no permanent independent immortal individual self existence (permanent independent infinite self identity/spirit/soul/individual consciousness) that exists in and belongs to any names and forms to be undergoing ceaseless selfless impermanent changes (ceaseless births and deaths within the selfless impermanent physical structure and in the selfless impermanent restless modification of the mind) that are happening ceaselessly in all kinds of names and forms (all kinds of sentient and non-sentient/conscious and non-conscious living organisms and non-living objects) that are arising, momentarily existing and functioning, ceaselessly changing, and passing away under different qualities/conditions/causes and effects, in NOW,

is the one same upmost essential teaching and practice of yoga and buddhism.

 

Inquire towards the two basic and yet highest teachings/dhamma/dharma/realization of both yoga and buddhism - 

Impermanence (諸法無常)

Selflessness (諸法無我)

and the direct self realization of Impermanence and Selflessness that leads to -

Silence (极静, 涅槃)

Transcend 'ignorance' and 'births and deaths) (超越'無明'與'生滅')

 

All kinds of physical and mental practices are merely serving the purpose of preparing the egoistic impure restless mind to be performing self inquiry under a non-grasping, desire-less, identity-less (I-less), intentionless (devoid of expectation), purified, and quiet state of mind.

Inquire towards -

"Ceaseless births and deaths (諸法生滅) governed by the nature's law of cause and effect transitioning/changing in between different conditions/qualities/states within the selfless impermanent existence and function of the selfless mortal physical body and restless selfless modification of the mind in NOW" vs "The worldly egoistic cultural and spiritual or religious belief/values/practices of the countless reincarnations/rebirths (生死輪迴) of a permanent independent infinite immortal individual self existence/identity/spirit/soul/consciousness transitioning into countless different life existence or different names and forms in different realms/worlds/spheres governed by the past and present continuous accumulated boundless and endless good/bad/neutral karma"

The cultural/spiritual/religious/worldly egoistic beliefs/values/practices is about the belief of there is an infinite permanent independent individual immortal self existence/identity/spirit/soul/consciousness that has been undergoing countless different reincarnations of different life existences under many different names and forms/conditions/qualities/experiences transitioning in different realms/states/spheres/worlds governed by 'the belief/values/practices of past and present continuous accumulated boundless and endless good/bad/neutral karma' being generated from the countless past life existences and the present life existence.

The dhamma/dharma is not a belief. It is what things are, as they are.

The teachings of yoga and buddhism is about all kinds of existence under different names and forms are all selfless and impermanent. That there are ceaseless selfless impermanent changes of ceaseless births and deaths that are happening ceaselessly within the selfless impermanent existence and function of the mortal physical structure and restless modification of the mind, where this selfless body and mind is ceaselessly changing/transitioning in between different impermanent conditions/states/qualities, governed by the nature's law of cause and effect, as well as ceaselessly decaying and disintegrating, in NOW.

There aren't countless reincarnations/rebirths/ceaseless births and deaths of an infinite permanent independent immortal individual self existence/identity/spirit/soul/consciousness that exists in and/or belongs to any particular selfless impermanent mortal physical structure and restless modification of the mind, that are being reincarnated into countless different life existences under different mortal physical structures/names and forms/conditions/qualities transitioning in between different realms/states/worlds/spheres governed by the worldly egoistic cultural and spiritual or religious belief/values/practices of good/bad/neutral karma or merits and virtues/sins.

There is only the one same selfless universal consciousness that pervades all and everything, within and without, that doesn't belong to anyone or anything, that hosts and witnesses all kinds of selfless impermanent manifestations of different names and forms ceaselessly arising, changing, and passing away under different conditions/qualities/causes and effects, that gives rise to the selfless state of consciousness or conscious awareness to the selfless existence and function of the mortal physical body that comes with the selfless impermanent modification of the mind.

There isn't countless different infinite immortal permanent independent individual self existence/identity/consciousness/spirit/soul that exists in or belongs to each of the countless different names and forms that are all selfless and impermanent, that either had been manifested or are manifesting (forming/coming into existence) in NOW, that had ceased existing or are existing in NOW, that are changing (decaying) in NOW, and that had passed away (disintegrated/decomposed) or are passing away (disintegrating/decomposing) in NOW.

And thus, both the teachings of yoga and buddhism stated - Upon the direct self realization towards the truth of Impermanence and Selflessness, there is only NOW, there is neither past nor future, 'All karma - regardless of good/bad/neutral' vanished, 'The wheel of ceaseless births and deaths/reincarnation' ceased existing, 'the individual consciousness' is one with/non-distinctive from/non-separated from the selfless universal consciousness, form is emptiness and emptiness is form, form is non-distinctive from emptiness and emptiness is non-distinctive from form, neither good nor bad, neither 'I' nor 'not I', there is no 'I', all are impermanent, all are selfless, all are subject to selfless impermanent changes, decay, and disintegration governed by cause and effect, regardless of wise or ignorant, kind or unkind, good or evil, healthy or unhealthy, strong or weak, flexible or non-flexible, understand or don't understand, happy or unhappy, rich or poor, knowledgeable or non-knowledgeable, intelligent or non-intelligent, peaceful or peaceless, accomplished or non-accomplished, long-lived or short-lived, easy life or difficult life, all are impermanent and selfless.

There is no past live(s) or future live(s) of any particular permanent independent infinite individual self existence/identity/spirit/soul/consciousness (that is non-existing, that doesn't exist).

There is only this selfless impermanent momentary life existence of this selfless impermanent ceaselessly changing and decaying mortal selfless physical structure that is existing and functioning under the selfless support of the selfless supportive energy and elements, while ceaselessly changing and decaying governed by the nature's law of cause and effect, in NOW, being perceived/experienced via this selfless impermanent momentary perceptive cognitive intellectual emotional thinking and acting mind under the presence of the selfless conscious awareness 'deriving' from the one and only timeless causeless attributeless all pervading unchanging unlimited unconditional selfless universal consciousness that doesn't belong to anyone or anything.

And hence, live in the present moment.

That is the freedom (自在) that exists in all and everyone, that is also selfless and impermanent.

Inquire the truth of everything, including all that is here.

Attain direct self realization, and be free.

To be existing, functioning, and living freely in the present moment NOW as it is.

 

Be free from being conditioned and limited by any kind of worldly egoistic cultural/spiritual/religious/ancestry/political/philosophical beliefs/values/practices that are neither good nor bad, that were being created and introduced by the worldly egoistic impure minds under specific intentions/desires/aspirations/ambitions/visions/purposes functioning under the influence of ignorance and egoism, the idea of 'I', impurities, restlessness, and the suffering deriving from all that a.k.a. the consequences of ignorance,

of not knowing the truth of Impermanence and Selflessness,

ignorantly or unwittingly being the slave of the idea of 'I' (the ego), egoism, impurities, restlessness, the selfless function of the mind perception of names and forms, the selfless function of conscious awareness, the selfless function of the senses and the objects of the senses, the sights, the sounds, the smells, the tastes, the sensations, the feelings and emotions, the actions and reactions and the consequences of that, the corrupted thinking, understanding, intellect, reasoning, judgment, and expectation, all kinds of dualities, the sense of self-esteem and self-worth, the sense of superiority and inferiority, the sense of deserving and non-deserving, the sense of meaningfulness and meaninglessness, the sense of joyfulness and joylessness, the sense of appropriateness and disappropriateness, all kinds of beliefs/values/practices, superstitions, myths, manipulations, lies, story telling, politics, all kinds of personal, family, and group attachment, identity, ties and connection, relationship, friendship, duty, and responsibility, pride and arrogance, offensiveness and defensiveness, selfishness, self-righteousness, possessiveness, separateness, discrimination, dissatisfaction, irritation, frustration, boredom, loneliness, disturbance, anger, hatred, jealousy, hostility, self-protectiveness, resentment, vengeance, violence, greed, the urge to control everything in accordance to one's desire, plotting, scheming, building castles in the air, day-dreaming, wishful thinking, ambitious aspirations, boundless desires of craving and aversion, likes and dislikes, agreements and disagreements, love and support seeking, attention and acknowledgement seeking, agreement and recognition seeking, guilt and regret, fear and worry, and so on.

 

All are selfless (諸法無我). Who, or what is there that is infinite/unchanging/immortal/permanent/independent, that is undergoing ceaseless selfless impermanent changes/births and deaths (無常生滅), or even the belief of ceaseless reincarnations (生死輪迴)?

It is absolutely possible to be free from all that.

It is not about how much the mind can achieve/learn/know/accomplish.

It is about how much the mind can let go all THAT that it has been achieving/learning/knowing/accomplishing.

Empty Thyself. Empty the mind.

Non-blind believing. Non-blind following. Non-blind practicing. Non-blind propagating. Non-blind glorifying.
