or are they one in meaning and different

in name only friend the immeasurable

deliverance of mind the deliverance of

mine through nothingness the deliverance

of mine through voidness the zionist

deliverance of mine

there is a way in which these states are

different in meaning and different in

name and there is a way in which there

are one and meaning and different I am

only you got all your it's gotta be of

course what friend is the way in which

these things are a friend and meaning

and different and name here maka bytes

pervading one quarter of his mine imbued

with loving-kindness likewise the second

likewise the third likewise the fourth

so above below or round and everywhere

and to all as to himself

yeah by its encompassing he abides

pervading the all-encompassing work with

the mind

with lovingkindness abundant exalted

immeasurable without hostility and

without it will ya buy his pervading

one-quarter of his mind with compassion

and you'll hear about that he abides

pervading one quarter of his mind with

joy he have I thought by its pervading

one quarter of his mind and viewed with

equanimity these are the four Brahma

feet hearts

likewise the second the third and the

fourth so above below around and

everywhere and to all as to himself yeah

by his pervading the all-encompassing

world with a mind and viewed with

equanimity abundant exalted immeasurable

without hostility and without ill-will

this is called the immeasurable

deliverance of mind what happens when

you get to the fourth jhana with their

loving-kindness you lose all of your

gross feelings in the body

you don't feel to your body you won't

feel the loving-kindness here

your head your head is the only thing

you'll really feel then as you go deeper

into the loving-kindness and you start

pervading in all of different directions

and that sort of thing the feeling of

loving kindness will change to a feeling

of compassion you have to tell me what

it's like and you'll start feeling an

expansion without without any boundaries

at all don't just feel expansion and all

the directions at the same time that is

called infinite space then when you go

deep enough in infinite space you will

start to experience individual

consciousnesses a ride isn't pass away

arise and pass away arise in the bath

away it's like looking in a movie that's

going too slow and you're seeing the

individual frames now that happens at

all of your sense stores

seems like they reveal a lot well that

was a million and you're talking about

seeing individual pixels in the TV set

yeah beyond a giant screen okay you will

see you're teaching yourself right there

exactly that everything is impermanent

that's happening and your your your

awareness has become so sharp that

you're able to see the individual

consciousness okay nothing stays the

same it's all just changing the

consciousness arises and passes away

that next one comes up and goes away

that seeing impermanence isn't it yeah

and it gets going too tiresome when you

start seeing it at all this ends doors

hmm that's suffering and you see up

close and personal that there is no

controller

everything isn't personal is just

happening all on its own when something

hits the eye base then you're gonna see

the individual eye consciousnesses it's

the air base you're gonna see the

individual ear consciousnesses when you

get to that state then I tell you okay I

want you to see what's in between each

one of those contracts I don't and the

feeling will go from joy to very very

strong mine is not looking outside of

itself anymore

so there's nothing there and it's

probably one of the most interesting

states of meditation you've been

experienced there's nothing there with

you there's nothing and you'll go

through that you'll see a bunch of

different things but nothing this is

where you really learn to fine-tune your

energy just a little tiny bit you might

have to fine-tune a day or ten times in

a city who knows depends on you things

get so subtle that the vibration that

you saw and nothingness it's so subtle

that you can't tell whether it's really

vibrating or not

this is called the state of perception

nor non-perception and you don't know

you're in that state to come out at

first yeah and when you come out then

musics are everything that you saw while

you were in that state there's still

stuff that does arise it's just hard to

see we're talking about getting into the

very south yeah and the eventually

your mere mine will go into the

cessation of perception feeling in

consciousness when it comes out you will

see the links of dependent origination

how they arise how would they kind of

make sense that you would see well

everything in Buddhism is about seeing

and understanding right so when you

finally see that this is exactly how

this stuff works

it's such a big oh wow that you after

you let go of the formation there is no

more candy

that's neba that's how it works and it

can happen at any time you can get into

the cessation of perception feeling in

at consciousness anytime from

experiencing the first jhana on

depending on how ready you are you

wouldn't know it

so that's dumb question

or are they one in meaning and different

in name only friend the immeasurable

deliverance of mind the deliverance of

mine through nothingness the deliverance

of mine through voidness the zionist

deliverance of mine

there is a way in which these states are
