Direct Transmission
Direct transmission is the way to communicate using purely in one’s sensory and put the signal
straight into one’s subconscious / old layer of the data process system, without relying on the word / notion.
(Though this signal can be just a sign. And this sign trigger the feeling, dormant memory in the spirit).
Especially if the subject is too ambiguous or too complexed, too big to convert to the notion or
even the word is not existing.——( like a word / notion of Subconscious in the time of Buddha )
Buddhism is the teachings, challenged to tackle such subject, Dharma.
Superficially the meaning of the Dharma has been explained though, it contains too many meanings
and notions therefore too complexed to define, and its deep meaning in its totality is almost unknowable.
Still, funnily enough, it’s everywhere, hence it is on front of you as everybody is seeing it
and you are a part of it. This is not an invisible Atomic Sub-particle’s theory.
So that the Buddhist spend hundreds of years to analyzing and trying to define it, resulting the
mountain of Abidharma Mantras.
——————–
Buddha himself didn’t explain it, since it is on front of our eyes and can be seen by anybody, yet
unexplainable by the words.—–And make the people to discover its deep meaning by themselves
through the practice, is what he was teaching.———-There was, and still is, no short cut.
So that, the famous ” Flower Summon ” comes in, ( though, this story only appeared in the
Chinese Mantra ——since they are pretty good in this kind of symbolic expression originated
from the Taoism, such as the huge blanc space express the rich notion of “Wu” (Mu in Japanese))
———- if you see the Dharma there, this is the Dharma what Buddha meant.
( If you see ” Oh, Master, you decapitated poor flower. You killed it”——– you see a dead flower. 😀 )
———- It is like your stomach up-set. You know it but you can’t explain exactly what it is in the word.
And only the other who got the same, may know it. So, to know it you have to bite onion, plenty of it.
( In Zen term, blanc white paper may be the expression of the whole Universe,—- or Nothing.
Therefore “Noting” can be the whole existence / the Dharma )——so that,
a small room in the Vimarakirti’s house can accommodate 3000 bikkus. )
Mandhara
A while ago, I was invited to attend a gathering of
the Tibetan Buddhists.
As a Tibetan Buddhism, it belongs to the Vajrayana Buddhism.
So that, the gathering went through an elaborated ritual rite
of which the participants taking part with chanting the mantra
and practice hand gestures.
—————
Elaborated rituals impress the people.
The people who attend such ritual, seeing gorgeous costumes
or strange regalia, never rise question but just follow.
People instantly accept it as it is, since it supposed to have ultimate authority with mysticism.
Anyhow it is beyond the comprehension of the ordinary mind, almost like looking inside of a computer.
The more elaborated, looks expensive, looks remote from ordinary knowledge, it precludes the question.
And deep impression becomes an imprint in the subconscious. (Then start to influence the person)
————–
A clever part of this sect’s practice is, as they ask the followers to visualise their Guru, the visual memory
of the rituals together with the feelings of the atmosphere comes back whenever the person meditates again.
This technique might be much easier to practice for the beginners.
Instead to vacate the mind, totally fills it with the image of Guru is, in effect, it is the state of non-self———
—–somebody-else is definitely not oneself though, this is not Buddhism but Vedic practice.
When the mind was filled by an image or notion, it is impossible to see the things in clear eyes.
This is the very reason why Buddha taught to see with empty mind / selflessness.
————
From this gathering, I brought back a flower which was used for a gesture of offering, thrown on to the
air and most of them end up on the floor.
After 10 days, this flower is still blooming in my kitchen. And this must be the best gift I received at the day,
since I don’t need to question this flower of Natural Mandhara, created by the Dharma, or this is
the Dharma itself.
Why do we need to see a man-made print of Mandhara.

PS: Funny phenomenon is, this blog received loads of virus spams.
(though they are all filtered out by the security program)
It’s not a Buddhist like behavior. So that, in deed this is a proof of
its not done by the Buddhists.
If the eyes has been deluded by a false vision, one can not see
even oneself, nor can not see what oneself is doing.(What a hell)
——-I rather like to see the daughters of Mara dancing naked,
than the spams. Ha Ha Ha 😀
