Life is Suffering due to Ignorance Giving Rise to Desires, Aversions and Attachments

Life is not suffering but there is suffering in life if not lived skillfully.

Cause has to be real. Imaginary causes of suffering like fate, supreme creator and controller, planets in heaven, previous birth, past birth karma etc.… are not real.

Desires, aversions and attachments due to ignorance as the causes of suffering are real and within the reach of individual to address. Every individual has ability to become free from ignorance, desires, aversions and attachments.

Ignorance is due to forgetfulness. For example, you can misunderstand by forgetting the beginning, the source, the actual context or the greater context. You become self-ignorant by forgetting how you were, how you felt, before gathering mind and self from society, before associating or associating with the known and unknown since the beginning of your life during infancy. You become self-ignorant by forgetting the beginning, why you are the way you are and from where are becoming in the present.

Hence enlightenment is due to dispelling ignorance through recognizing and remembering some forgotten but obvious truths. Spiritual enlightenment is to dispel self-ignorance by recognizing and remembering your natural innocence before formation of mind and self.

Vipassana or Anapanasati: Practicing Constant Awareness of Breath at Entrance of Nostrils

bird flying in blue skyConstant awareness of breathing at the entrance of nostrils is an ancient Buddhist practice called Vipassana or Anapanasati, practiced for the cultivation of detached constant seamless clarity of awareness, the phenomenon of knowing correctly as it is in the right context.

At the time of birth, breathing starts due to different cause and conditions like physiological impulses and atmospheric air pressure. Breath is not instilled in you by so called “Supreme Creator and Controller” because no human can breathe outside the earth’s atmosphere in space regardless of the will or wish of “Mr. Supreme Creator and Controller”.

Breath is the means to inhale life energy that fuels processes of life, awakening the infant from hibernation in womb and giving rise to phenomenon of wakefulness, consciousness and awareness, the spectrum of knowing evolving with growth and maturity.

Practice of Vipassana or Anapansati

Select a well-ventilated space with fresh atmosphere, preferably in nature, for practicing awareness of breath. Do not burn incenses or do anything that will pollute the air.

Sit in a correct posture with an empty stomach on soft carpet, preferably in Seiza or Vajrasana posture. If you cannot sit in Seiza posture, then sit on a low bench with knees completely bent in the knees in such a way that level of knees is below the level of thighs. This allows lower back to remain straight effortlessly and facilitate diaphragmic breathing automatically.

Then remain aware of each and every breath at entrance of nostril in such a way that you do not get any opportunity to think or imagine anything.

Remain aware of each and every breath at the entrance of nostril until attention shifts and you remain aware of breath in between eyebrows.

Remain aware of each and every breath in between your eyebrows until you detach from breath psychologically and remain independently aware in between eyebrows in state of knowing no-mind without any mental activities like thoughts or imaginations.

Knowing no-mind is your state of psychological detachment from the know and unknown while remaining involuntarily self-regulated and in charge of your own. No-mind is absent mindedness whereas knowing no-mind is detached awareness and key to self-mastery. Fully aware knowing no mind, you breathe naturally not according to known and unknown.

By knowing no-mind you stop associating with the known and unknown to eventually become free from self-conception. Without self-conception, fully aware and detached, knowing no-mind, you are undivided whole psychologically and you feel complete.
