Neyyapuggala should memorize all of neyyapuggala's meaning, to alert themselves in every step of life.
Who say's, TheY? I know more "uneducated" wise people that "educated. "Knowledge" is possession and makes just trouble in mind if it is a matter to have the wish to penetrate matters.
Also, can you give me a link that describe about "nāmarūpaparicchedapaññā" from your teacher (just those books, not person), too.
Sure.
One day, a famous woman lecturer on Buddhist metaphysics came to see Achaan Chah. This woman gave periodic teachings in Bangkok on the abhidharma and complex Buddhist psychology. In talking to Achaan Chah, she detailed how important it was for people to understand Buddhist psychology and how much her students benefited from their study with her. She asked him whether he agreed with the importance of such understanding.
"Yes, very important", he agreed.
Delighted, she further questioned whether he had his own students learn abhidharma.
"Oh, yes, of course."
And where, she asked, did he recommend they start, which books and studies were best?
"Only here," he said, pointing to his heart, "only here."
As:
Studying vs. Going into Battle
There have been some scholarly monks who've researched in the texts, who have studied a lot. I tell them to give the meditation a try. This matter of going by the book: When you study, you study in line with the texts, but when you go into battle, you have to go outside of the texts. If you simply fight in line with the texts, you'll be no match for the enemy. When things get serious, you have to go outside of the texts.
And you told the reason as well:
This is palava-vipassanā, but nāmarūpaparicchedapaññā is lower.
Johann, you don't have a knowledge in buddha-textbook and, abhidhamma. So you don't understand my sentence.
You are right, and it's very hard to get ride of it, again and again. And no, I don't understand your sentences not because there is to less knowlegde, but because they are 1. without meaning (no gramma, no real question) and 2. it it is about "how about Buddhas khandha" the question is already answered with the Anuradha Sutta. Every further question and answer here would be not proper or one of those who need to be put aside.
"Abhidhammatthasaṅgaha", so I was not so wrong with my guessing "people who have Adhidhamma-Texts in there mind". Nice work, but I have never seen Adhidhamma specialists, who had really much wisdom but they all have a nice and never ending work, mind entertained all the time. They don't find peace and they will not easy come to "all done, nothing further to do for this world".
If I wanna practice vipassanā follow tipitaka and commentary, I will...
1. Memorize 121 citta, 52 cetasika, 28 rūpa, and whole abhidhammatthasaṇgaha (100 pages in pāli).
2. Learn abhidhammatthasaṇgaha.
3. Learn netti (of kaccāyana).
4. Learn visuddhimagga.
Then I can understand almost all tipitaka text, include my question.
I know that this is very popular in SEAsia, since less people are into meditation but love possession. Actually non of them could live the holy life or adopt even basic virtue but yes, some of them make real good books.
This reply can be a flout. Also, it can be a advice about your missing step, too.
Thanks a lot TheY, I appreciate your care. There is a very important sentence and message you can keep in mind "Who and what ever tries to keep you from meditating, who ever pulls you back into the world, see him/her and it as an enemy for real peace."
What about your meditation? Did you ever find time to do some, of will you do it later, if you know every sentence in this books and commentaries.
TheY, it's nice and good to study this books, as long as you don't find a way to put things simply into action, but when ever you have the change, leave them behind. They are the most excuses for "dhammika" to make real process in practice.
I am sure it does not make you very happy as you would love to discuss on knowledge and here I am surely not the right person to give you joy. How ever, I still try to quote some "knowledge" straight form the main book.
In relation to "Let test your ...", I hope that has given you a good result.
Falling Out of a Tree
...It's the same with dependent co-arising. "Ignorance is the condition for fabrications. Fabrications are the condition for consciousness. Consciousness is the condition for name and form." We've studied this and memorized it, and it's true, the way the Buddha has divided things up like this for students to study. But when these things actually arise, they're too fast for you to count.
It's like falling from the top of a tree — thump! — to the ground. We don't know which branches we've passed. The moment the mind is struck by a good object, if it's something it likes, it goes straight to "good." It doesn't know the connecting steps in between. They follow in line with the texts, but they also go outside of the texts. They don't say, "Right here is ignorance. Right here is fabrication. Right here is consciousness. Right here is name and form." They don't have signs for you to read. It's like falling out of a tree. The Buddha talks about the mental moments in full detail, but I use the comparison with falling out of a tree. When you slip out of a tree — thump! — you don't measure how many feet and inches you've fallen. All you know is you've crashed to the ground and are already hurting.
thump? Why? and what came up?
