MAHAYANA SUTRA

The fourth lecture
"The Attainment and the Perfection of Jnana Yoga"


The precise analisys supports Shakti-Pat

Let's go back to today's topic. Let's think of the reason why it is necessary to have the perfection of Jnana Yoga which is based on equality.

There are times when the saviors have to take the dangerous techniques such as Shakti-Pat or Shakti-Prayoga. They are techniques to absorve other's bad thoughts and bad karma, and to input the wonderrful karma to others.

If the attainer of Raja Yoga were to use this technique, he should bevery careful or else he will lose his state of attainment and return to his original state as ao ordinary person. In case of the attainer of Kundalini Yoga, he will also lose energy and be lack of life energy. So his spiritual level may once fall, but he can recover as the time goes by.

How about the case of the attainer of Jnana Yoga? In Jnana Yoga, the distinction between self and others disappear, and can analyze in calm one's own state. This is important point. Even if he were to be attacked by other's karma, he can have the cool analyses to the karma and the cool analysis to his own state so as to get rid of them.

This is how one can keep his mental state in the same condition even if he were to give Shakti-Pat, though he can't help losing his energy.

The reason why there are 6 Yogas from Raja Yoga to the ultimate enlightenment within the spiritual practice of Mahayana is because they are all necessary things for savior.

So if one attain Jnana Yoga, at least there will be no problem in Shakti-Pat and Shakti-Prayoga.

Make the good use of the formula

The next problem is how we can attain Jnana Yoga. We need two conditions for it.

The first is to recognize the phenomenal realm, the Astral world, and the Causal world by the attainment of Kundalini Yoga. And to understand that the connection in this life is only the Maya (illusion).

However, this is not the only condition. We need one more. What is it? It is the formula. We need the formula in Jnana Yoga. This formula is something which is directly initiated by the Guru. One should observe phenomena with the pure wisdom of observation based on its formula. One is sure to attain Jnana Yoga if he fulfills these two conditions.

The important thing is that it is meaningless to know the formunal if he can not make the good use of this formula. There is a thing so called inspiration. However, this inspiration in most of the cases is only one of your thoughts which comes out from your subconsciousness. It is not something reliable.

However, the inspirtation of the person who had acquired equality by attaining the Kundalini Yoga is precise. And this precise inspiration is useful so as to make the good use of the formula. Let's say that there was a problem. You solve this according to the formula. But there will be the parts which you can't solve. In such case, there will be an inspiration if you had equality within yourselves. And with the additional information to jammed thoughts, that jammed thoughts can suddenly be solved.

If you do not have the mind of eqquality, you will have to input the wrong information to your jammed thoughts. As the result, you will never be able to get out rom the jammed thoughts, though it is because of karma. This is the reason why we need to attain Kundalini Yoga.

Theperiod for the isolated practice for Khema-Taishi or Shanti- Taishi was very short. On the other hand, the period for the isolated practice for those three spiritual practitioners, Mr. Joyu, Ms. Miyakozawa, and Ms. Yamamoto, is long, because I want them to practice as long as possible. I want them to fix the process of Raja Yoga, Kundalini Yoga, and Jnana Yoga as much as possible, so as to let it be their own experience. I have already prepared their holy names, because they had already went through the least condition for enlightenment.

Now, after completely cultivating the mind of equality, one will clearly recognize everything about this phenomenal world. And when he understands that the distinction between self and others itself, or the egoistic ideas itself, gives us suffering, we go on to the Mahayana Yoga. When finishing Mahayana Yoga, he is the person with high merit, or the person with great merit. He accumulates enormous amount of merit, and become the king of the Astral world with the help of this merit. And accumulating enormous amount of merit in the Astral world, he becomes the king of the Causal world.

And after experiencing everything in the Causal world, he enters Mahayana. This is the Mahayana Buddhism. This is the Yoga of Mahayana.

The rivival of the age of the right law - the development of the truth

I spoke combining Yoga and Buddhism. So now you know the main stream of Yoga and Buddhism. And I hope you could understand that this has no difference at all with the main stream of Buddhism.

It is natural because Buddhism itself is one of the branch stream of Yoga. And Buddha Sakyamuni knew all of that main stream. And he passed away leaving clues in sutras.

He also says that the age of the right law begins again 2,500 years after his age of the right law. And 2,500 years had passed now. In 5, 10, or 20 years later, we can find out who will develop the age of the right law once again, whether it is us, AUM, or whether it is other practitioner of the truth.

Now you know the stream. First you enter the stream, and let yourself go with the holy stream. Going along with that stream, there will be the attainment of Raja Yoga. Then the attainment of Kundalini Yoga. Then the attainment of Jnana Yoga. And go on to Mahayana Yoga, Astral Yoga, Causal Yoga, real enlightenment, ultimate enlightenment, and Mahayana in the end.

I hope you walk this great path.
