Introduction.
i got this lesson pointed to me by Buddhist Monk, Samahita Thera, Bhikku Samahita who also thanked me & called friend.
i feel honored and appreciated.
i read description of Samvega on Wikipedia, and noticed it's present in my life, but perhaps not completely.
Samvega.
Saṃvega is a Pali Buddhist term which indicates a sense of shock, anxiety and spiritual urgency to reach liberation and escape the suffering of samsara.
According to Thanissaro Bhikku, saṃvega is the 'first emotion you're supposed to bring to the training' and can be defined as:
'The oppressive sense of shock, dismay, and alienation that come with realizing the futility and meaninglessness of life as it's normally lived; a chastening sense of our own complacency and foolishness in having let ourselves live so blindly; and an anxious sense of urgency in trying to find a way out of the meaningless cycle.'
Saṃvega is also associated with the development of energy (viriya) and right effort, according to Buddhagosa's Atthasālinī:
Energy has exerting as its characteristic, strengthening the co-existent states as function, and opposition to giving way as manifestation.
It has been said: 'He in whom saṃvega is present exerts himself properly,' hence energy has saṃvega, or the basic condition of making energy as proximate cause.
Right exertion should be regarded as the root of all attainments. - DhsA. 121
There are eight bases of saṃvega (saṃvega vatthu). They are 'birth, old age, sickness, death, suffering in the woeful worlds, the round of suffering as rooted in the past, the round of suffering as rooted in the future, and the round of suffering in the search for food in the present.'
Saṃvega can therefore be developed by practicing meditation on death (maranasati) and the charnel ground meditations as outlined in the Satipatthana sutta. In the Upajjhatthana Sutta the Buddha taught that everyone (monks and householders) should practice the five daily recollections as a way to arouse energy and saṃvega.
For saṃvega to be an effective drive to practice, it must be accompanied by another emotion called pasada, a 'clarity and serene confidence.' Pasada is what keeps saṃvega from turning into nihilistic despair by providing a sense of confidence that there is a way out, namely nibbana'.

Teaching Students as Rivals.
Introduction.
This is probably the most controversial Non-Sectarian Thought & Lesson i have, i badly need Protection, Wisdom & Guidance of the Best from HH Buddha Karmapa 17th Trinley Thaye Dorje's School, Lineage & Sangha to not fail, to not betray as well.
i do not wish to be a traitor, but not at all cost.
i do not wish others to follow my example & fail, as well - but again, not at all cost.
My background experiences.
When i was a kid, i played mage Attentus in Roleplaying Games.
He had Philosophy that Master succeeds when his or her student defeats him or her in the nonlethal duel - while both fight to the end.
i think this has uses in Buddhism, but it's extremely difficult to perform & not fail.
i think word 'Master' does not have to have negative meaning, it can be no less to the 'Teacher', even according to Buddhism. i think not all of Masters abuse or constrain students' good will.
Examples.
i think Buddhas Compete, by Supporting other Buddhas & Criticizing, so all can still develop.
i think this has examples in our School, Sangha & Lineage, with Black Hat Karmapa & Red Hat Karmapa as most important.
Challenges.
Student should learn Wisdom, Compassion & Responsibility - so after defeating Master, won't abuse his or her 'superiority'.
i think everyone has potential for benefitting from this Lesson, we have uses for Rivals & people with Really Bad Karma.
Rivals include Ogyen Trinley Dorje & his Sangha, as well as others both in our & other Schools.
i think we have uses for people with Really Bad Karma, even for Adolf Hitler Reincarnated & for even Worse cases - these people know how to Protect once they have Compassion & Wisdom.
Yes, i wish to learn how to Teach them as well, how to defeat me Safely, Wisely, Compassionately & Responsibly, after nonlethal the fight to the end.
Wishes.
i wish for Protection, Wisdom & Guidance of the Best from HH Buddha Karmapa Trinley Thaye Dorje's School, Lineage & Sangha for those who need it, including me.
May all beings have happines and causes of happiness,
May they be free from suffering and the cause of suffering,
May they always experience true happiness, which is totally free from suffering,
May they remain in the great equanimity, which is beyond attachment and aversion.

Arhat.
Introduction.
'Theravada Buddhism defines arhat (Sanskrit) or arahant (Pali) as 'one who is worthy' or as a 'perfected person' having attained nirvana.
Other Buddhist traditions have used the term for people far advanced along the path of Enlightenment, but who may not have reached full Buddhahood.'
Source: Wikipedia.
Commentary.
Theravada Buddhism's goal is to attain Liberation, Lesser Nirvana.
Mahayana & Vajrayana Buddhism's goal is to attain Enlightenment, Great Nirvana.
Enlightenment occurs after Liberation, after one wishes for it.
Grevious misconduct of Killing Arhat denies one access to Buddha's Teachings for very long time,
i think for many incarnations - it's terribly bad karma.

Being Useful.
Introduction.
i think it's common problem in modern society to think that being useful can be reduced to working & paying taxes.
While taxes help to fund welfare & social benefits for more unfortunate than succesful, it's too narrow thinking - i think.
Being useful.
i think world needs compassion & kindness, education & empathy - not only materialistic gains.
Different people have different needs, and not everything money can provide.
But even then, money helps in fight for fulfilling needs as Love, Family, Peaceful Life or other Nonmaterial Values or Rare Goods.
From a Buddhist perspective, Lama Ole Nydahl authored a book 'Being Useful', or 'Być Pożytecznym' in Polish Language.
i do not have this book yet, but i try to be useful for others anyway.
i wish to buy & read this book nevertheless - i wish to do this when it's Enlightening.
Wishes.
May all beings have happines and causes of happiness,
May they be free from suffering and the cause of suffering,
May they always experience true happiness, which is totally free from suffering,
May they remain in the great equanimity, which is beyond attachment and aversion.

Mathematics as a Way.
About.
During the Buddhist Lecture with Lama Ole Nydahl, i had insights.
Thoughts appeared in Mind, thoughts that told me that Lama Ole Nydahl wishes me to go to Warsaw University again, to study & complete Mathematics.
i've already studied Mathemathis in past, but wasn't prepared enough to graduate.
This time i understand need to prepare not only to be admitted to University, but also to prepare to complete studies as well.
i think studying Mathematics will help me in Computer Sciences & with other Sciences as well, more than finishing Computer Sciences studies, anyway.
i wish to write Master's Degree on Cryptography - mostly in the Modern Quantum Cryptography, but not only - related with Computer Security - but also prepare in other fields as well - for Art, with Fractals - and with other Mathematics useful for other Sciences.
i think Sangha does not appreciate Sciences enough, that Arts & Speech are very important but still overvalued when compared to Sciences.
i think the Cause is that in Buddhism we develop Mind, Speech & Body and that from a Buddhist perspective Enlightening Wisdom is worth far more than Worldly Sciences & other Delusions.
i think that Sangha does not trust Scientists, because of understanding lacks, envy & pride.
i think many more talented & developed Scientists suffer under more trusted but less Scientific Buddhists that way, unfortunately. i think their talents are supressed for wishes of Sangha are to be worse than more Buddhism-oriented are, to not endanger them - it's foolish thought as well, i think.
Had thoughts that suggest that it's considered by many that it's not worthwhile to be a scientist without great karma, without Sangha's inner politics merit, that it's better to develop speech than sciences - even if it brings benefit in following lives.
i think this has something to do with lack of scientists in Tibet & other Buddhist nations, that we suffer because of such attitudes. i think that Buddhist Teachers are Wiser than that, but rest of Sangha - not enough.
i think Mathematics is an expression form as well, the Language of the Universe.
But other forms of speech allow to insult easier, so Scientist suffer from abuse from less ambitious people.
i plan to develop in Mathematics as well, following Lama Ole Nydahl's wish & motivation - but won't go to extreme, to not suffer so much. i wish to develop in other Arts & Speech as well.
i Love Arts more than sciences, for i am beginner & i lack. But i am far more knowledgeable & disillusioned with Sciences - mostly in Computer Sciences & Programming - than in Arts. i'll serve Buddhist Art with my Sciences anyway, but other Arts & Ways will benefit as well. Buddhism is most important to me, and it will remain so. But in Sciences i am Wiser, more Experienced & Knowledgeable than in Buddhism & Arts. Esoterics is also a very important for me, as well.
i'll also Protect other Scientists from insults & slander, with my Arts, Sciences & articles such as this as well - it's part of my Way. Mostly young Scientists, for they need it most. Then old Scientists for they help best. Then middle-aged scientists for they also need.

'Stupid Wisdom'.
... i am a fool, but i try to develop at least Stupid Wisdom.
Introduction.
When one meets another, one can act or react with compassion or wisdom, with stupidity or aggression.
Stupidity often implies aggression - it's stupid to attack people, i think it's insidious opening for an attack by pretending to be more stupid than one is.
Because of my experiences - i am wary of words: 'i don't understand', 'i don't know', 'why?', ...; These words can act as Mantras spoken in presence of others, setting a tone & a stance to someone for future relations.
In Buddhism, Woman is Considered Wisdom as well - i heard from friend in Buddhist Center, from friend who involved me in Buddhism.
Reaction Stances.
Because of my thoughts arising in mind, i think when one meets another, possible openings/reactions are:
- Compassion (best & gentlest of reactions, one wishes no harm to others),
- Attack with Compassion (stronger reaction, especially in the long run - one is compassionate to others to gain advantage; it's still good reaction and wise when approaching enemies/opponents with compassion),
- Wisdom (it's even a stronger-stance reaction, but many consider it quite cruel. it's not bad at all when one tries to understand someone first to use compassion wisely later, but when one develops only wisdom without compassion it's cruel indeed),
- Stupidity (strongest reaction at first, fast opening - but is doomed to yield to wisdom later. it's quite aggresive & hostile, as one does not even try to understand another person, insidiously pretends to be stupid or is stupid in an attempt to gain something from another).
Stupid Wisdom.
What then is a Stupid Wisdom?
i think it's Stupidity & Wisdom mixed.
Before true Wisdom is attained, one starts from basics - from Lesser Wisdoms, from foundations of Greater Wisdom.
There's strong opening there as well - as one fights for Wisdom one needs to be Strong, so often does Stupid things until he or she matures enough to reach for the Greater Wisdom as well.
Does Lesser Wisdom equal to Stupid Wisdom?
i think not, there's the difference. One does not need to be stupid to learn wisdom, but not everyone is strong enough to dare for that Greater Way.
i still start with Manjushri Mantras as i wish to develop Stupid Wisdom, as i start from basics & want it to develop into True Wisdoms eventually.
Wisdom Bodhisattvas & Buddhas.
Buddha is Enlightened Being, one who Fully Realized Wisdom & Compassion.
Boddhisattva is one who strives for Enlightenment, for Buddha State, for good of all beings.
There are Wisdom Buddhas & Wisdom Bodhisattvas, with their Mantras.
Five Wisdom Buddhas' Mantras are:
OM VAIROCHANA OM
OM AKSHOBHYA HUM
OM RATNASAMBHAVA TRAM
OM AMITABHA HRIH
OM AMOGHASIDDHI AH
Bodhisattva of Wisdom's, Manjushri's Mantra is:
OM A RA PA CA NA DHIH
Wishes.
i wish to learn Stupid Wisdom as a Way of Reaching Greater Wisdoms - Worldly, Spiritual & Enlightening, for benefit of all.
i wish to learn Stupid Wisdoms that at a first glance appear as a stupid jokes at best, but in depth are Extremely Wiser than it seems, that are Deep & Meaningful as well.
i wish to use Compassion with my Stupid Wisdom, so every being benefits eventually, even if sometimes set at inconvenience at first because of initial Stupidity.
i wish to share my Wisdoms, both Stupid Wisdoms, Lesser Wisdoms & Greater Wisdoms with other beings, for benefit of all.
i wish to share my Wisdoms with a good style & art, for benefit of all.

Reality is Illusion, Worldly Knowledge is Delusions.
A poem.
'Reality is Illusion,
Worldly Knowledge is Delusions.
Wise men do separate,
What's a light from what's a raft.
It is written in old lore,
Wisdom gone other shore.
Bits of knowledge carry there,
Where light is everywhere.
Worldly wisdom is Delusions,
Dharma lore - other shore.
Wise men do use rafts,
To help people, earn Dharma.
Using rafts we do can reach,
Place where light abundant.
Even if Delusions only,
For a while rafts do last.'
Commentary.
Above poem is a commentary to the 'Heart Sutra', that mentions 'wisdom going to the other shore', on one's Way to Enlightenment.
In above poem reality is illusion as it's play of light & shadow, that it's not set in stone - changes constantly, what is firm & real at first becomes obsolete in next moment.
Conditions change constantly, start to hold, hold, cease to hold, or don't hold - as the time flows.
Worldly Knowledge is full of delusions, can last for a while then be replaced with another wisdoms or sciences later. Scientific theorems are proven or disproven as time progress, what seems next big thing might turn to be nothing, just a delusion by a single scientific proof. Even if wisdom or science (also worldly wisdom) turns obsolete, it might reappear and prove useful in another times when conditions change.
Worldly Knowledge might be useful still in it's time frame, however. More importantly, it can serve to protect the causes of Enlightenment for All.
Worldly Knowledge can be a tool using which one can 'pay' for Dharma Lessons that lead to Liberation & Enlightenment.
In other words, this blog's author thinks that worldly knownledge can be a 'raft', that can be used to reach 'other shore' on the Way to Liberation & Enlightenment. After reaching 'other shore' rafts are no longer needed, there are other wisdoms & other useful methods there.
And finally, quoting a Buddhist Teacher (I won't tell his name here) from Warsaw Buddhist Meditation Center (In Warsaw, Poland, in Europe): 'One can use Form to go beyond the Form', which means that samsaric methods can be used to go beyond samsara, to reach Liberation & Enlightenment.

Wishes.
May all beings have happines and causes of happiness,
May they be free from suffering and the cause of suffering,
May they always experience true happiness, which is totally free from suffering,
May they remain in the great equanimity, which is beyond attachment and aversion.

Time.
Introduction.
In past i've read in Lama Ole Nydahl's book that the most precious thing we have is our Time.
i think the time of others should be respected & appreciated, especially if it's time of girl's youth if You are a boy in need.
Advantage.
How to fight for the Time Advantage?
i am still developing methods, but ideas are:
- Time Awareness,
- Respecting the Time of oneself & of others,
- Kalachakra Vows & Initiations,
- Wisdom & Responsibility,
- Noble Attitude & Compassion.
- Respect for Older,
- Respect for Wiser - even if they are Young,
- Discipline,
- Ambitions & Aspirations - Especially for Kalachakra Way,
- Respect for Clocks of the Universe.
Wishes.
i wish to fight for the Time Advantage, for Enlightenment & Wisdom.
Wisdom is mentioned here to honor & address the needs of the Spiritual Ways - not only Buddhism's.
i wish to fight for meaningful victories, not settling for trifle ones if it's waste of time - working & fighting tirelessly when needed or neccessary, as well.

History's Lessons.
About.
'Forget not the days of old, and recall the stories told'.
Many of the beings honor their Ancestors, trying to follow their paths in their days.
History likes to repeat itself, by criticizing errors of the past, we prevent them from reappearing in present & in future.
'It's winners who write history'.
But historians also rewrite it - and very efficiently - they warn against historical events reappearing, both on small and larger scales.
Often events of the past are recreated in another times, to counter or reinforce other events' reoccurance.
This blog's author's way includes such 'rewriting of history' - of mostly of Buddhist & Esoteric events.
i wish to study such history, starting from Buddha's life, to the Golden Dawn & Thelema's origins & background, to the Wicca/Witchcraft's historical lore; other ways & events should be included as well - as needed or neccessary.
i am interrested in artifacts & relics, in Tormas, in holy & magickal items, in archaeology as well - but i read in Lama Ole Nydahl's book that truth, precision & accuracy are more important than old dates of such treasures.
i think Torma (holy hidden treasure) can be found in mind or outside - it can be idea, inspiration or physical item.
i do not wish to be greatest historian ever, just to be great in my selected fields.
Why?
i think that even articles & comments on blogs can have meaning - when they criticize, reinforce or warn - affecting present & future, drawing from past.
i think Buddhism, Esoterics, Art (including historical Art) & Philosophies will greatly enhance that Way.
i think it's also a way of fighting for Enlightenment, mostly Buddhist & Magickal.
Critics requested & welcome, as i progress on the Way.
Wishes.
May all beings have happines and causes of happiness,
May they be free from suffering and the cause of suffering,
May they always experience true happiness, which is totally free from suffering,
May they remain in the great equanimity, which is beyond attachment and aversion.
Mantras.

'Forget not the days of old, and recall the stories told'.
Many of the beings honor their Ancestors, trying to follow their paths in their days.
History likes to repeat itself, by criticizing errors of the past, we prevent them from reappearing in present & in future.
'It's winners who write history'.
But historians also rewrite it - and very efficiently - they warn against historical events reappearing, both on small and larger scales.
Often events of the past are recreated in another times, to counter or reinforce other events' reoccurance.

Inner Knife.
((placeholder for a post.))
((yes, it's my art ... it's there! ... just not as of yet.))
((yes, i want it to be in a proper place & clearly visible as well.))
(( ;) ))
--
More seriously it's a critic of my own thoughts.
i had insights that church wishes me to write that i carry my inner knife, the most holy symbol of Buddha Mahakala in my Heart.
i think that consequences would be that someone would pray for killing me by putting a knife in the heart so i would go to the heaven ... a knife is a cross, afterall?
i think this would be just too much of envy & pride, of 'stealing the show'.
Who would be blamed if i died? Buddhas - as not able to protect the protector from the holy symbol.
So the Church would shine as the better.

Self Initiation.
The Lessons.
In the Stupa House Buddhist Center i've received the lessons.
One of most important lessons was about Identification.
We try to act as Buddha until we become Buddha.
Another of the most important lesson was about perceiving others as Buddha.
If we perceive other as Buddha we'll receive lesson as from Buddha.
Extensions.
i've called myself neo-mahakala-108 not to insult Buddha Mahakala, but to Identify ... to invoke his power, to realize his Buddha Qualities.
Names have Power, the Old Truth.
Today i had inner lessons, thoughts appeared in mind.
i've bowed before HH Buddha Karmapa 17th Trinley Thaye Dorje's image, but also before my Holstered Knife's image.
Thoughts appeared in mind telling me that most true of Initiations is the Self-Initiation, and Identification is also Self-Initiation.
Thoughts appeared in mind that formal external initiation courses are still worthwhile to participate in, to help others mostly - especially if these initiations are parts of one's way.
Causes.
i think i am lonely for too long, i need enlightened & magickal love.
As a kid i thought about needs of girls to seduce them.
i understood they need sense of security & protection, sense of security even more.
i understood they do not need rude protectors, they need gentle ones.
Later i understood that sense of security comes from real fight, from real protection - others can sense who is friendly & compassionate and who is against. i think it's the base of empathy.
i made a wish to be gentle protector of women.
Later i've trained martial arts.
Later i meditated & sang Mahakala Invocation with Sangha.
Later i performed the Mahakala Invocation Practice in the Stupa House Buddhist Center in Warsaw, for about a Month - along with Tonglen & other Practices - as my own practice beside other standard practices with Sangha.
i think this was the chain of causes for my Identification with neo-mahakala-108 & Self-Initiation that Way.
i think that for those who wish to win the True Love, this is one of the entrances - but prepare for very difficult & thrilling fight, and serious purifications. Even worst sissies can succeed that way if they are patient & dedicated enough, i think. I was considered worst and fattest boy in my school class, yet i see my fast inner & external progress for True Love now. it works in my case so far, so perhaps will work in other cases as well. i am not sure, however - i didn't succeed in creating family as of yet.
Now i understand that real protection also comes from sense of security as well - it works both ways.
Wishes.
May all beings have happines and causes of happiness,
May they be free from suffering and the cause of suffering,
May they always experience true happiness, which is totally free from suffering,
May they remain in the great equanimity, which is beyond attachment and aversion.

Love - Knife.
My Knife in the Holster for the Protection.
Master Cutlery Survivor Black bought on militaria.pl internet shop,
Available without permission - even for mentally ill.
Introduction.
i think most important source of power & strength for me is Love, Enlightened & Magickal.
Without Love i do not wish to live.
i am the very much more lover than fighter, protection is far more important than fight - but love even more.
i prefer to be a very gentle protector as well.
The Protection Buddha is Mahakala, i'll probably realize his Qualities as first of all Buddha Qualities.
Mahakala is also Protecting Energy in Buddhism, Buddhist Protector & Wrathful deity - in lesser, less realized forms.
The most important tool of Mahakala is the Knife, the holy symbol, used to cut all that hinders - i think ego hinders the most.
Mahakala has other tools as well.
Knife is my second source of power & strength - it's holy spiritual symbol, even if lesser to love in my case by far.
The Truth.
Truth is what brings together instead of separating, but honesty is still very important - especially in Spiritual matters.
i trained Martial Arts under Church's Masters, who Respected Buddhism as well.
Japanese Martial Arts mostly, Japan is a very Buddhist Country - but it also has Churches & Religions other than Buddhism.
i decided to make my Martial Arts Enlightening, Efficient, beneficial, Wise, fairly strong & Gentle ... but also a common point between Buddhism, Christianity, Other Religions & Spiritual Ways as well.
i think the Knife has shape alike cross, at least under microscope. i think it's inner cross & pain as well to carry it.
i think it's great source of power & strength in Mahakala's hands, so i ask others to protect it - by countering & securing for Enlightenment & Truth.
If i turn to be traitor to Spiritual Ways, i need Buddhas, Faiths & Spiritual People to make it turn against me, so i won't worsen my karma too much by committing too many of Spiritual Errors. i do not plan nor wish for committing these Errors anyway.
i wish for the Knife to make me more Powerful & Strong in all aspects of life as long as i am loyal to the Enlightened Love, Enlightenment & Truth.
i think countering my Knife & securing can work in both ways & very fast, as in the Armies who secure & cooperate each other - no less.
Armies are merciless to traitors as well.
True Love is merciless to traitors even more, i think & believe as well.
Wishes.
May all beings have happines and causes of happiness,
May they be free from suffering and the cause of suffering,
May they always experience true happiness, which is totally free from suffering,
May they remain in the great equanimity, which is beyond attachment and aversion.
Mantras.

My Ways - Center is the Most Important.
Priorities.
My Spiritual Ways are mostly as in this Cross.
i think it will evolve into Svastika - aligned to right, then to the Buddhist/Taoist Symbols.
Yet those who care for that - i think it's mostly young Wicca/Witchcraft - should fight still for that, otherwise it will fail.
Svastika is an Ancient Buddhist Symbol, Hitler Stole it from Buddhas.
Importance Order, as is of today (usually Wicca/Witchcraft is on a firm 3rd place, and the Golden Dawn on firm 2nd place):
1. Buddhism,
2. Wicca/Witchcraft,
3. Christianity & the Golden Dawn - but Certainly not Inquisition,
4. Thelema,
5. Islam, but Certainly not Terror.
Prediction.
We shall see yet how it will evolve - it's not set in stone yet.
However, i predict Svastika That Way:
1. Buddhism in the Center,
2. The Golden Dawn on top, then behind it Christianity - but Certainly not Inquisition,
3. Wicca/Witchcraft on left, then behind it Voodoo/Hoodoo,
4. Thelema on right, then behind it Nihilism,
5. Sufism on bottom, then behind it Islam - but Certainly not Terror.
Mantras.
