The Noble Council of Akanittha Brahma Realm was remembered with faith.
I repeated the 20/12/2024 Nibbāna meditation. The Anusaya (underlying tendency) diagram was reflected on. The points learned in the 25/01/2020 Nekkhamma (renunciation) meditation were briefly recalled.
1. What is thinking (takko) - If one has taken any doctrine as self that does not lead to Nibbana, one should think about abandoning it. For example, someone who is attached to a certain doctrine that leads to meditative attainments (samāpatti) thinks about removing that attachment.
2. Next, what is the directed thinking (vitakko) here? One thinks about what should be done to remove that doctrine. For example, thinking about not getting attached to meditative attainments (samāpatti).
3. Next, what is the thought (saṅkappo) here? One thinks that the sutta pitaka should be studied. That is, thinking that there should be establishment in the thought of suffering (dukkha). Studying the sutta pitaka is for establishing in the thought of suffering (dukkha). Things frequently heard through radio, TV, mobile, etc. are for establishing in the thought of pleasure (sukha).
4. What is mental fixity (appanā)? The mind settles into that task. The mind settles into examining the sutta pitaka.
5. Next, what is mental transfixion (byappanā)? One discovers that the first column in the dukkha table should not occur.
6. What is focused awareness (cetaso abhiniropanā)? Mindfulness is established that the first column of the dukkha table should not occur.
7. Next, verbal formations (vacīsaṅkhāro), it means experiencing the truth of what the Tathagata said; that suffering arises due to craving. When examining this thoroughly, where there is the lack of clear comprehension (asampajañña), one clearly understands that there is suffering (dukkha), not pleasure (sukha), and one has Nibbāna as object and only Nibbāna as goal.
These seven doctrines can be marked in the above Anusaya diagram.
Therein; thinking (takko); is marked above mental volition (manosañcetanā), thinks about removing the attachment to a certain doctrine that leads to meditative attainments (samāpatti)
Next, directed thinking (vitakko) is written on the right side of “ after transcending of perception of form (vokāro). Thinks about removing the attachment to meditative attainments (samāpatti). Above it, ‘Thinks about removing the attachment to the result' can be written within parentheses.
Next, with an arrow drawn down from directed thinking (vitakko) is marked mental fixity (appanā). The mind settles into the task. Below that, ‘effort’ (vīriya) can be written within parentheses.
Next, above underlying tendency to greed for sensual desire (kāmarāga anusaya) is thought (saṅkappo): thinking that there should be establishment in the thought of suffering. Above that, ‘Place the four noble truths at the body tie of insistence’ (idaṃsacca)' is written within parentheses.
Next, below underlying tendency to greed for sensual desire (kāmarāga anusaya), there is mental fixity (appanā). The mind settles into the concept of suffering. 'Effort' (vīriya) is again written within parentheses.
From there, a small arrow is drawn to the left and mental transfixion (byappanā) is written. One discovers that the first column in the dukkha table should not occur. That is, descending into what is discovered.
Below that, 'desire' (chanda) is written within parentheses. Descending into what is discovered.
Next, below underlying tendency to ignorance (avijjā anusaya) on the left side, is focused awareness (cetaso abhiniropanā). Mindfulness is established that the first column of the dukkha table should not occur. Below that, 'mindfulness' (sati) is written within parentheses.
Above Area 2, verbal formations (vacīsaṅkhāro), understanding the Four Noble Truths. 'Investigation' (vimaṃsā) is written within parentheses.
Thus, established in right thought (sammā sankappa), one can have Nibbana as object only Nibbana as goal.
That is the meditation.
To add a little more to this:
When doing this meditation, while contemplating the doctrines marked on the right side - thinking (takko), mental fixity (appanā), thought (saṅkappo) - the faculty of wisdom (paññā indriya) is felt well and peacefully, and when remembering the doctrines on the left side, the faculty of mindfulness (sati indriya) is felt unified with the faculty of wisdom (paññā indriya).
