Episodes
The interstitial space of thought, the mind, and life is once again the conundrum of early Buddhist teaching seemingly contradicting the clarity of the Mahayana teachings. Life as “verb”; as action, momentum and ephemeral; rather than “Life” as static condition, thing, or permanent in the realm of forms.

MahaPariNirvana Part 28. Shakyamuni continues his examples of Buddhaness as experienced consciousness, via the potential inherent in all phenomena to express this state of “being”.

Shakyamuni uses the rhetoric of his dual existence to again drive home the point that all phenomena inherit Tathagata potential. He speaks of himself in the realm of form (human) and in the realm of expressed Tathagata as Buddha.

In his way of the use of simile, personages, and Energy Potentials as “places in time”, Shakyamuni speaks of the 3 entities of birth with all inherent consciousnesses including Buddhahood; and his implementation of enlightenment as a gradually revealed entity in the mundane world.
The difference of thought versus experience; Samsara versus Clarity. What “is” or “is not” are both expressions of what can be, and nothing more.

Prohibitions and “rules” were intended for specific stages of monks students in adjusting their attitudes and intent. All these were directed to propagation of the ultimate teachings.

In closing, the expression of Tathagata-field Potential, the “adamantine body” is the enduring influence of your Buddha-hood in the community of mankind. Unbound by physical survival, influence reverberates through the minds of encounters without end. This is especially manifest as the reward of protection and promulgation of the Wonderful Dharma (Lotus Teaching).

MahaPariNirvana Part 19. We close chapter four with the reminder that the Engine of Life is the process of all phenomena, that formations are karma, and that this understanding comes with the 9th consciousness.

MahaPariNirvana Part 18. Who is the “Teacher” and to whom is the “Student? Ultimately it is we, in our own minds, to whom the experience of the world, life, is the teacher and student. This is an a priori mind-shift, a transcendence of “reality” as the illusion of “things” to the awakening of the “reality” of thought as experience.

MahaPariNirvana Part 15. We close this chapter with a description of “Realms”. A list could be made of these descriptions to add to the discussions of later centuries about the 3000 Realms of Samsaric influence acting on our moment to moment consciousnesses to impede or support our resolve in the practice of enlightenment.
