28”: Purification of insight by overcoming doubt: There is no self apart from that who performs, e.g., the bending of the limbs (etc.). …. have to admit I’m not getting it

[@drsr4560]

29”: perception of bodily pain gradually decreases over successive moments of awareness. Me: Why would that follow? What about people coping with chronic intractable pain?

[@ThePoehladian]

Perhaps whatever their pain level is, it's less than it was at the beginning or would be without this lessening. I'm just guessing this.

[@clodhopper-dodo]

The feeling of pain is a mind game. Once the mind game is revealed, the pain discontinues. When there is physical pain, the mind refuses to involve in it and then intending, going happens while going to doctor. When the doctor is treating, intending, seeing happens. There is no-self doing the intending, seeing etc

The audio is too fast.

[@ThePoehladian]

You can change the speed.

23” Analytic knowledge (of body & mind): i) there is the abdominal (i.e., physical) movement associated with breathing; ii) and, there is the knowing (i.e, mental) of that; and, there is otherwise not a “self” to be found. And this is also called “purification of view.”

[@drsr4560]

27” the meditator realizes that it is b/c of ignorance, craving, etc., that body & mind continue… (I don’t follow this)

[@ThePoehladian]

We're not yet conscious enough to live consciously........ ?

The three important tenets of Buddhism is to know that mind and matter are all 1.Impermanent 2.suffering and 3.Non-self To meditate means to meditate on mind and matter and be aware of it. The difficulty with the meditator here is they try to meditate on concepts of impermanence, suffering and non-self. Concepts don't exist. Take Seeing for example. In the beginning, there is no seeing, but if the eye is good, the object comes up, there is light and your attention is drawn to it. If these four conditions concur, then there is seeing. Once it has arisen, then it passes away. So we say, seeing is impermanent. Since the meditator is watching every arising, all things mental and material appear to him as separate,broken pieces. He is no longer illusioned.
