Buddha’s Brute-Force Meditation
In a discussion with Gautam Buddha recently, he explained to me a little about the process he used. He showed in my subtle head how it was done by him. This is a brute-force meditation procedure where the mind is forced to cease its shenanigans. From what he showed, I do not see how the average person, in fact even the average ascetic can use that method. It is just not possible for an ordinary spirit to do that outright just like that. First of all what is written in the Pali cannon literature does not have enough details of the practice. The results he got from his methods are there but the fine print about what he actually did within the mind is not given in detail. This is not unusual because it is common for accomplished ascetic not to leave details of their meditation. His disciples’ literature has lead-ons and indications but there is nothing in it like what he explained and showed me practically. This means that in Buddhism the actual methods were not written down. The conceptional mental approach and emotional fronting is given by the actual mental maneuvers used is not detailed
Of course I may be mistaken on this. If I am then I will accept the corrections. First of all while Patanjali listed eight part to yoga and Gorakshnath Mahayogin listed 6 parts which are the six higher states of what Patanjali presented, Buddha showed me one method for reaching samadhi and divine eye perception and that is all he offered.
What is that method?
It is confrontation between the core-self and the imagining, reasoning faculty of the mind, whereby the core-self confronts that faculty and orders it to instantly cease its shenanigans. The self then focuses into that faculty and must do so for hours at a time for days, weeks, months or years to develop the divine eye, which he said it necessary if one is to go further.
This is why I said above that the average ascetic even cannot use this method because of the inability to confront the analytical faculty. Where is it in the mind? How is it confronted? What would one do if it ignores the request for it to ceases trivial thought/memory operations?
How does the self develop the power to confront the spontaneous and quite natural operations of the mind, which normally ignores the request of the self?
Try it:
Order your mind to cease developing a memory?
Does the mind stop as soon as you make the request or does it continue developing the idea anyway?
Buddha’s meditation begins by giving the mind an order to cease its operations and this is similar to Patanjali’s idea that yoga begins in earnest when the chittavritti mento-emotional operations are squelched. Buddha’s process it that the self focuses internally and orders the mind to cease operations, and the mind in turn does as it is told.
Try it!
That is his system.
Can you do it?
Do you need time to develop this?
Do you need props like mantras and other comforters to lull the mind into submission?

SHRUNKEN BUDDHA HEAD RAP
Lord Buddha & Compassion
Preface to Practice & Research:
Stemming from: "great future research from where I stand",
Of post entitled as: Origin-of-Random-Memory
Though my objective is personal inquisition into the mind-field and better apprehension of what I am in truth as a core-self, regarding constitutional as well as subtle geo-positioning definitions, I find it appropriate to preface with a certain consideration for some additional (meta-) cognition. I am writing for my personal edification and conceptual reinforcement, and more importantly a progress note for Master Kriya Teacher’s consideration.
In this subtle vein, find it necessary to remind myself of judging the man according his association:
RishiDeva Michael Beloved is my Divine Grace for allowing me a sense of, or accessing Buddha God!
This interaction is of great significance because; ultimately it is my position that RishiDeva has exemplified the perfection of the human stage of development. He is doing this in a manner that is conspicuous and therefore only accessible internally.
Preface part One:
I see a general creative energy environment that is energy moving around akin to the atmosphere that allows for localized turbulences, and at times more expanded upheavals.
There is an intermeshed paramount matrix that is inherently formed of the social self-identification relating with the creative energy that is the results of the sum total of all the interactions of sentient beings within, and in relation to this same environment.
Then exists also, for the internally observant ones; the environment of the subtle creative energy as perceived from within the non-material definition of the individual.
The core-self is relating to all these aspects of the person only by the agency of different organs with a complex range of definitions and functions. Yet, the core-self is permanently existing in its primeval environment, with its attention perpetually turned towards the creative energies.
From my introspections, Lord Buddha has for some reasons taken a position that is similar to that of the human but in reality; he really is by definition designed differently for conclusively proving that he is God to the eye of the inner observant ones.
Lord Buddha in this post, a disarmingly simple communication, that may considered in different ways; from a subversive infiltration within our reality, to a suspicious channeling of the divine; has dramatically exposed the path to self-enlightening.
In reiteration, and for all practical reasons, it is a conversation that only starts upon engaging in a meticulous inner observance of the psyche, that inconspicuous environment which seems all pervasive, yet localized for the apparent purpose of all sentient beings within the creative energies.
The Lord Buddha who is a core-self that is divine and therefore designed as a God-self, is herefor engaging and encouraging inner self evolution through the methodology he used, even though he can’t help but be God.
God Buddha’s achievement as reported in natural communication is also a testimony as to how even demi-gods could be envying, and were all attentive to him as they awaited his cues…
Buddha, God that He is, is eternally distinct to a human or any sentient being subject to inherent conditioning. A dog might have evolved after so many births to its current form and then eventually become human, and further along go to the moon star body, still such dog is not god.
He is God! He was controlling or controls that environment; or that environment did not have and does not control over him. He is god. In my interpretation of his statement there are great concern, love and compassion for the situations of all mankind as well as all other sentient beings.
