WHAT DO YOU GET FROM THE BUDDHISM TEACHING

     You already know the three Exhortations of the Buddha, especially, Sacittapariyodapanam that means mind purification. You have to place your mind at the center point of the body in order to achieve mind purification. And you already learn the principle of the Eightfold Magga and how to achieve Dharmakaya. We make merit, give alms, observe Sila (precepts) and practise Bhavana (meditation) wishing to achieve Nirvana (extinction of defilement). We even join Robe and Forest-Robe Presentation Ceremonies in many Bhava and Jati (existence and birth) with the main objective to achieve the “Magic Dharma” which is nothing but “Dharmakaya”.

     We were born twice in our human lives. The first time, we were born from our mother’s womb. We are born for the second time on the day we achieve “Dharmakaya”. Our mind will have changed to be “ noble” since then.

     We all wish to achieve this Dharma but our sin precludes us from Dharmakaya study. We were induced to study other doctrines such as Kammatthana (meditation) of the evil side until it is almost too late to turn back. We become older and older but still believe in Kammatthana (meditation) of Avijja. We locate our mind at the wrong place, not at the center point of the body, which is useless.

     So, how many people are able to achieve Dharmakaya or how many people are born for the second time on the day they achieve Dharmakaya.

SUGGESTIONS

     1. The Search for Mokkhadharma (salvation, deliverance, freedom)

          You do not have to go into the caves or jungles to search for Mokkhadharma (salvation, deliverance, freedom) because it is in your body’s center point. But if you decide to go to the caves or jungles for the purpose of right mind practice, that is fine. Pariyatti (theory) knowledge is theory that we can study from the textbook. We read and memorize the text. Patipatti (practice) and Pativedha (attainment) are more difficult because they are practicing processes.

     2. The Magic Spell “Sum-Ma-Ar-Ra-Hung”

          This is the magic spell that should always be prayed in mind anytime. You should pray even though you have never seen Dharmasphere.

     3. Mind Placement

          While you are making merit, meditating, observing Sila (precepts), hearing a sermon or praying you should place your mind at the center point of your body (location 7). If you misplace, your merits and virtues will be destroyed by the evil without notice.

     4. Making Your Mind Halted and Still

          While you keep on praying “Sum-Ma-Ar-Ra-Hung” you must pinpoint your mind precisely at your body’s center point, no matter it is dark or bright, you must never change the target. Keep on focusing at the point and it will later become brighter and brighter.

     When you focus your mind at your body’s center point, do not be fooled by the evil. Do not change your focal point at other places that are brighter. The evil is playing games by making light at other places and making a fool of you so that you will not be able to achieve Dharma.

     5. The Thoughts

          Our mind has 3 rulers namely, benevolent, malevolent and Abyakatadharma (neutral) rulers. Sometimes we think good, sometimes bad and sometimes not good and not bad (or neutral). It is us who think that. Can we think only the good things? In fact, we would like to think good all the time but we can not do that. What is the principal that causes us to think many ways? It is not our mind because the mind just performs its functions. Only the qualified scholar can answer these questions because they need supreme knowledge.

     The way we think depends upon the mentioned three rulers. They govern the human’s mind, in other words, they rule us. If we are benevolent we will think good. On the other hand, if we are malevolent, we will think bad. And if we are neutral, we will think not good and not bad.

     Having achieved Dharmakaya you will learn from Dharmakaya wisdom that our mind functions seeing, memorizing, thinking and knowing. After we pinpoint our Dharmakaya mind at the Pathama Magga Sphere (the first sphere) of our human body, when the crystal point of the needle tip size at the Sphere’s center becomes void, we will see three spheres. The crystal clear one on the right is called merit sphere, the gray one at the center is called neutral sphere (Abyakatadharma) and the black one on the left is called sin sphere. And after we pinpoint our Dharmakaya mind at the center point of the crystal clear sphere, you will see the crystal clear Dharmakaya.

     For the gray sphere you will see the gray Dharmakaya and for the black sphere you will see the black Dharmakaya.

     The crystal clear Dharmakaya is the merit principal.

     The black Dharmakaya is the sin principal.

     The gray Dharmakaya is the neutral principal.

     Buddha words say

     “Manopubbangama Dharma” means everything is reached by the mind first.

     “Manosettha” means the mind is supreme.

     “Manomaya” means success by the mind.

     This shows that the winning principal takes the human’s entire mind and we will follow that principal. The losing principal misses all.

     The three principals are in your mind. If you want your mind to be bright and clear it must be governed by the merit principal. If your mind is dim or dark that means it is being governed by the evil principal and there is no way to achieve Magga (the path) Phala (fruition). We practice our mind in order to eliminate the gloom, make it clear and be free from Avijja ruling. It is all in your mind.

     7. Dharmakaya Study is not like “Looking for a needle in the ocean”

          If you read the book “The way to Magga (the path) Phala (fruition) (18-Bodies)” written by Luang Por Wat Pak Nam you will learn that.

          7.1 Dharmakaya Study has step-by-step practicing rules. You know after succeeding each step what must be done next and how to do to succeed. For example, after practicing until you can see Dharma Sphere, proceed until you can see all six spheres and you will see your dreaming body. The dreaming body creates other 6 Dharma Spheres then, you will be able to see the unrefined divine body…. Dharmakaya…..the refined Phra Arahatta Dharmakaya and etc.

               It does not like “looking for a needle in the ocean”. After finishing the basic course you still have to continue to the higher courses, lesson by lesson, forever. What and how much will you succeed depends on your intention. And you can upgrade your achievement. It does not like other doctrine that keeps you praying all the time without achieving anything, the teacher can not tell you what will you get at what stage. He only tells you that his method is the way to achievement and Kilesa (defilement) extermination. This kind will make you bored.

          7.2 Comparison between Dharmakaya Doctrine and other Kammatthana (meditation)

               If you compare rules and procedures of other types of Kammatthana (meditation) and those of Dharmakaya doctrine you will see that other types just tell you to keep on praying and you do not even know the progress you can attain. The instructor seems to be the only one who is talented and capable. The students can not be so good as him.

          For the Kammatthana (meditation) of Dharmakaya Doctrine, there are three grades of practitioners. The first is the meditation grade that has not yet achieves the Pathama Magga Sphere (the first sphere). Those who can achieve the Pathama Magga Sphere will study and practice the basic doctrine, i.e. 18-Bodies Principle. The practitioners who finish the Principle will be upgraded to study and practice the advanced principle. So, there must be at least 3 instructors. Each practitioner can upgrade himself if he has strong intention. After having practiced for a short period some student can even attain better than his instructor because he is serious and he can find ways to achieve higher and higher.

          Dharmakaya Doctrine is universal. It can be studied and practiced by all people regardless of sex, age and education. The achievement in the Doctrine can be applied instantly in daily life. Various topics such as merit, sin, Ariyasacca (the Four Holy Truths), heaven, hell, Nirvana (extinction of defilement), etc. which are very difficult to see and understand, can be clearly explained if you have achieved the highest level of the Doctrine.

     8. Dharmakaya Doctrine contains a number of causes for studying

          No matter who you are kids, pupils, students, researchers, civilians, businessmen, government officers, executives, etc., you can find particular courses that fit to your study and practice. Dharmakaya Doctrine’s advances principle still provides Bodhi knowledge as well as Paramattha knowledge as Pubbenivasanussatinana (reminiscence of the past or previous births), Cutupapatanana (the knowledge of the decease and rebirth of beings) and Asavakkhayanana (the knowledge of the cessation of mental intoxication) to Buddhists who want to study and achieve. Now, there are instructors of all study levels ready to guide you. It is up to your consideration whether you will take the course and serious attempt. For anyone wishing to study who could not find the instructor, please do not hesitate to contact me or my working group.
