VIPASSANA MEDITACIJA
Vipassana, to znai videti stvari onakve kakve one stvarno jesu,
je svetska najstarija,
najjednostavnija, ali ipak najefektivnija tehnika meditacije.
Istinski nauna I
nesektaka, Vipassana je nazvana univerzalnim lekom za
univerzalne bolesti.
Dobro, nije potrebno da vam kaemo koliko je teko uspostaviti
kontrolu ili mir uma.
Um se poredi sa poludelim majmunom. Bio jednom jedan majmun,
nemiran po
svojoj sopstvenoj prirodi, kao i svi drugi majmuni. Kao da to
nije bilo dovoljno, neko je
majmuna poteno napio vinom, tako da je on postao jo nemirniji.
Onda ga je
korpion ujeo. Kada oveka ujede korpion, on skae skoro ceo dan,
tako da je
jadnom majmunu ovo stanje bilo gore nego ikad. Da bi upotpunio
majmunovu
patnju demon je uao u njega. Koji jezik moe da opie
nekontrolisani nemir tog
majmuna? Ljudski um je poput tog majmuna. (Swami Vivekananda,
Raja-Yoga)
Meditacija, kada je raena ispravno, ne samo da smiruje um vega
isto tako i
izorava. Javlja se ogromna otvorenost I jasnoa, jer prazan um
nita ne blokira, nita
ne ometa, niti deformie.
Obino je um pun smea. On je poreen sa prljavim, pranjavim
ogledalom.
Meditacija, kroz samo-posmatranje, postepeno odstranjuje
mentalne zaprljanosti,
rezultujui u balansiranom umu punom ljubavi i saoseanja. U
konanoj analizi,
meditacija je stanje iste svesnosti.
Postoji nain na koji stvari stvarno jesu, pored toga kako one
izgledaju i ta mi
mislimo o njima: stvarnost sopstva, ivota i drugog. Kada je, u
meditaciji, ova
stvarnost doivljena direktno, mudrost dolazi spontano.
Meditacija je konani lek. Ona uklanja patnju i donosi sreu
potpunog osloboenja.
Na kraju, vi imate hiljadu i jedan problem, i pokuavate da ih
reite. Ali ni jedan
problem nije nikada bio reen, zato to, na prvom mestu, vi nemate
hiljadu i jedan
problem, vi imate samo jedan problem. Pronaite ta je to i kako
da ga saseete u
samom korenu.

Well, you dont need us to tell you how hard it is to control or
pacify the mind. It has
been compared to the maddened monkey. There was a monkey,
restless by his
own nature, as all monkeys are. As if that were not enough
someone made him
drink freely of wine, so that he became still more restless.
Then a scorpion stung him.
When a man is stung by a scorpion, he jumps about for a whole
day; so the poor
monkey found his condition worse than ever. To complete his
misery a demon
entered into him. What language can describe the uncontrollable
restlessness of
that monkey? The human mind is like that monkey. (Swami
Vivekananda, Raja-
Yoga) Meditation, when done correctly, not only calms down the
mind, but
sharpens it as well. There is tremendous openness and clarity,
because an empty
mind obstructs nothing, overcrowds nothing, distorts
nothing.
Ordinarily, the mind is full of rubbish. It has been compared to
a dirty, dusty mirror.
Meditation, through self-observation, gradually eradicates
mental defilements,
resulting in a balanced mind full of love and compassion. In the
final analysis,
meditation is a state of pure consciousness.
There is some way that things actually are, apart from how they
seem and what is
thought about them: the actuality of self, life and another.
When, in meditation, this
actuality is experienced directly, wisdom arises
spontaneously.
Meditation is the ultimate medicine. It ends suffering and
brings the highest
happiness of full liberation.
In conclusion, you have a thousand and one problems, and you try
to solve them.
But not even a single problem is ever solved, because in the
first place you dont
have a thousand and one problems, you have only one. Find out
what it is and how
to cut the very root of it.
