大乘涅磐经 (Mahayana Nirvana sutra) 
10 Nov 2019

大乘涅磐经 (Mahayana Nirvana sutra) confirm the diagram is indeed "Nirvana".














Very interesting.
When reading Abidharma, it say Arahat Nirvana (小乘涅磐) is :-
1. absorption and rapturing
2. sensory consciousness cut off
3. one pointedness concentration
4. experience nothingness
(but no mention of bright light outward expansion like a sun into the Universe.)

When reading the Mahayana Nirvana Sutra (大乘涅磐) - it mention all the above plus bright light outward expansion like a sun into the Universe like the Dharma Wheel (法轮).
And the sutra say only Bodhisattva and Buddha have such Nirvana.

So strange, does it mean both small wheel (小乘涅磐) and big vehicle (大乘涅磐) can follow one after another?
(That means 2 times Perfection - Nirvana - A Bodhisattva)?
Buddha has 3 times Nirvana Perfection.

Wow!

Remember previously reading a sutra that say:-
(1) Buddha (佛) attain 3 times Perfection of Nirvana fruition.

(2) Bodhisattva (菩萨) attain 2 times Perfection of Nirvana fruition。

(3) Arahat and Pacceka Buddha (阿罗汉),(辟支佛) attain 1 time Perfection of Nirvana fruition.

They are attained through meditation and attainment which can be independently verified.

Also the next coming Buddha is Matrieya Buddha.


Why do Buddhas, PuSas and Saints – have Aura around their head?

Why do Buddhas, PuSas and Saints – have Aura around their head ? (it is in fact – 3 concentric circles – consisting “No-Self”, Compassion & Panna Wisdom).Supreme Bliss – in Meditation (Aura – 3 concentric circles)




1. A Mediator sitting in Alpha position observe (or silent chanting of a Buddha name) One’s breath – in tandem of the in & out of the nostril. With sustained mindfulness of the in & out of the breath until, serenity & calmness of the mind is achieved. Any distraction of the mind – eg. Drifting of mind, pain or itch in the body – will be tagged with mental noting of the respective phenomenon. This ensure the meditator is “detached: - from his body phenomena or mental state – but merely as another party “observing” his own body phenomena or mental state.
2. When sufficient Concentration developed through this “sustained Mindfulness”, a sharp pointed “bright light” – which is known as “nimitta” sign emerge near the proximity of the nostril – in which sustained mindfulness and Concentration is directed.
3. When the nimitta appears – it means that Concentration of the Mind is near to perfection – and further directed Mindfulness on the nimitta – to achieve “one pointedness of concentration”.
4. When a pointedness of concentration emerged – the nimitta becomes an intense bright light – unwavering, sharpness and brightness.
5. If mindfulness and concentration iis deepen on the intense nimtta – a strong absorption, suction into the intense light will occur.
6. Rapturing will follow that cause the body to quiver with “goose pimples” erupting under the rapturing of the body. In a short instance, the whole body seems to have vanished.
7. The ear consciousness will be suddenly shut out – and only muffle noise of the background will be heard.
8. Following, happiness arises.
9. Serenity arises.
10. Equanimity arises.
11. Silencing of the mind.
12. Only one pointedness bright light become the only dominant visible phenomena – plus the 4 other mental phenomena.
13.This is said to have achieved the “Jhana state” – Chang Ding or Zen state !


1-Pointedness Samadhi Concentration to Vastness in Space




=




1. Meditator will bask on the one pointedness bright light for a while and enjoying the 4 happy mental states of happiness, serenity, equanimity and silencing of the mind.


2. After a while the one pointedness bright light (the first concentric circle) expand outwards like an expanding balloon in the 10 directions – filling up the space around the meditator.


3. Again the expansion of the light – will continue to project and expand outward – farther and farther as it to fill up the space around us, the district, the country, the world, the earth and still continue into the space – the solar system, the galaxy, the whole universe.


4. The first concentric circle of yellow light will then stabilize – and stop expanding. This first concentric circle – characterize as “no-self” – Void – thus it can expand outwards with no barriers or obstacles.


5. As long as as the space or void is not fill with the yellow bright light, the first concentric circle of bright light will then expand again – due to the pulling of a “flickering: 2nd concentric circle of flickering bright circumference – characterize by Compassion. (Vows to liberate all sentinent beings of 10 directions).


6. Until and unless all spaces have been covered by the 2 concentric circles – characterizing of liberation of all sentinent beings of 10 directions – will the 2 concentric circles stop.Only then the 3rd concentric circle – a robust 3rd concentric circle form a “body mass” around the 2 concentric circle.


7. When this happens, no more stray thoughts will arise within the 3 concentric circles.Stray thoughts that attempt to penetrate the 3 concentric circles will be strongly defended and protected by the 3rd Concentric circle of “body mass” – characterize by “Panna Wisdom”.8. When this happen, the meditator is experiencing what is called “The Supreme Bliss” – everlasting “Silencing of the Mind” – that will go on for hours, an hours, an hours --- never before experience in any human beings – or it believe by any 6 realm states of sentinent beings.

三圣果位降狮城。
九品莲花渡众生。
华严三昧转法轮。
