Abhidhamma
Studies and “Faked News”
I have made a deliberate
attempt to be out of the “Internet” for a considerable time but
events have made me to come out of hibernation for brief outbursts.
This is the time of faked
news.
I have no place in this
environment.
I adore people like Snowden
and Assanga (Many more Americans like Chomsky, Naomi who stand up to
the colossal Internal Structure Embedded that is against the True
Disclosure of “Real News” as against to the doctored).
Mind you this applies to
Russians, too.
Unfortunately this current reality
applies to Dhamma, too.
The contents in Sinhala is
obnoxious to say the least.
I will state one word of
Buddhagosa, from Vissuddhimagga (Good book to read before attempting
current wave of “Commercial Meditation”, which is translated to
Vimukthimagga (trend taken out of our old JVP, the attempt at “not”
real emancipation).
Vissuddhi (I am not a
scholar in any language, including my use of English- But I am very good
at questioning the established argument for the sake of one which is
evolving.) and Vimukithi are not the same.
Vissuddhi in my opinion is
the process or the attempt at clearing the mind of illusion of the
Self and its Conditionality with the antecedent to the present and
probable future occurrence of conditionals.
The Vimukthi on the other
hand is resultant anticipated outcome.
Talking about Vimukthi
(just like the attempt by JVP) in my opinion is redundant in the
absence of the methodology to achieve it.
The methodology is Meditation with the "Right View".
They are not the same.
There is enough literature
published by BPS, Kandy on Abhidhamma which is the database of
terminology in Dhamma.
One need not try to distort
the attempt by ancient scholars who collected, counted and put it in conceptual database
for future scholars to investigate.
That is my bone of
contention.
Just try to derive mental
benefit of Meditation by reading them before sitting down for a
session.
That is my advice.
