Origin of Random Memory
With the help of Srila Yogeshwarananda and Lord Buddha, I did some research into the source of random memories. How do they arise suddenly during meditation even when they are not requested through the intellect or they are not aroused because the psyche views something that is related or that appears to be related?
On the average, memories are fished out of the neck. They come up through the neck and enter the subtle head. There are a few most recent memories however which remain in the subtle head after they are used by the intellect. These are like programs which are opened in a computer but which are behind the one which is being viewed.
Installed programs which are not being used are on the hard drive of the computer. These are invoked when the user clicks on the icon which causes their display. As soon as the intellect requires memory, it sends a message which causes a hunt and arrest energy to descend through the neck, to search the memory storage in the subtle chest.
When the intellect does not request a memory, a related memory might come to it. Such data is based on the recent sensual activities. However some memories which are requested come to the intellect. These may have no correspondence to sensual activity. Especially during meditation practice a yogi may be baffled as to how those memories arise.
When the sense of identity projects itself to the intellect, there is a gap between the two adjuncts. In this gap some of the sense of identity’s interest falls away from it and enters into the kundalini’s influence. This interest energy falls like rain through the sky.
When that interest enters the kundalini’s influence, it causes random memories to be energized. These impressions reach the intellect which illustrate in the mind. This disrupts meditation.
The solution is to make the sense of identity efficiently give its energy to the intellect so that none of its interest falls like rain in the kundalini’s influence.

This I find consequential in the highest degree!
Upon serious premeditation premise establishing, the buddhi organ within the psyche may access higher level environment of the subtle creative energy, where it can experience some stability.
There will be less randomization of thought forms, including memories. The yogi is able to attempt meditation proper according to the kriya method, or advanced hatha yoga practice.
Still, meditation will be sidelined by random memories, time after time and again. This exposition, in this immensely valuable post gives great direction as to the solution to this perennial conundrum. The location or direction of the attention energy or sense of identity energy is provided.

“Because of the disruption I was also able to note that the core self itself stops listening to naad, in the presence of the subversive and tantalizing other subtle interests and pulls. When the psyche has not been consistently vented by prana then the environment to exist in during meditation will not be conducive for the self to be interested in naad exercise over other presented interests.
MiBeloved’s Response:
That is a solid piece of realization. Too bad every yogi has to face up to this by himself or herself.”
By invaluable grace only, the equation now is easier than ever before! It makes it possible to directly address the issue which remains monumental, and might not be solved for a long, long time. Circumstantially, regardless of currently “owning” a physical body or not the core-self must deal with the content energy of the subtle one.
So, unless this situation is successfully addressed to a lesser or greater degree, absorption into a higher existential environment or level of consciousness will not be prolonged.
Location, location, and now why or also perhaps how? See previous related post, and or relevant quotes: Yoga-Habit-of-memory
“Worse yet, one may not know how one came to be strolling there, or when that was decided, where one is and perhaps why.”
Great future research projects from where I stand.
