“THE ESSENCE OF IT ALL – 20, 21 & 22.”
20 .A
THE BUDDHA/ TEACHER DISCOVERED/ RATIONALIZED REALITY, THE TRUTH OF LIFE & EXISTENCE OR THE WORKINGS OF THE NATURAL LAWS. IT IS UP TO APPLY THESE LAWS (OF SCIENCE) TO ANY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, AND DERIVE AN ABSOLUTE UNDERSTANDING OF IT*(1). THIS AMOUNTS TO THE PRACTICE OF BUDDHA-I.E.
“SEEING THINGS AS THEY REALLY ARE.
*(01) the natural laws substantiate personal experiences. And personal experiences substantiate the natural laws – or truths. (The Buddha’s discoveries of reality constitute a loose conglomerate of truths, for the species purpose of discarding conditioned existence. We have to elaborate and fix these truths as Scientific Principles of Metaphysics)
20 .B
THE BUDDHA’S SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES
THE BUDDHA’S DISCOVERY OF THE MIND WAS MOSTLY A FUNCTIONAL PROCESS – THE
CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS THOUGHT PROCESS. THESE COULD BE CONSIDERED AS
THE MIND’S “PHYSIOLOGY.” WE NOW HAVE TO COMPLETE ITS “ANATOMICAL” CONSTRUCTION. NONE OF THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE WITHOUT THE BUDDHA’S
AWARENESS OF THE MIND’S INHERENT DYNAMICITY OR FLUCTUATIONS. IT IS THIS VITAL INSIGHT THAT ENABLES ONE TO TRULY UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRETY OF THE MIND – OR ONE’S OWN SELF. THE BUDDHA’S VIEWS ON ORGANIC MATTER WERE VERY BASIC; BUT VERY
IMPOTENT. WE, OF COURSE, HAVE THE PRIMORDIAL PROTOTYPE CELL (OR THE BASIC LIFE CELL……. BEINGS) KNOWLEDGE. IT IS HERE THAT THE BUDDHA’S INTERPRETATION OF THE MIND, HELPS US WITH, HOW THE GENES GOT THERE KNOW- HOW!
THE BUDDHA HAS DELVED LITTLE INTO NUCLEAR-PHYSICS AND THE CONSTITUTION OF PRIMARY MATTER. NEITHER HAS THERE BEEN ANY ELABORATION ON THE CONSTRUCTION
OF ELEMENTS. BUT THE BUDDHA SEEMS TO HAVE A REMARKABLE DISCOVERY ABOUT MATTER AS A WHOLE: THAT HEAT IS ACTUALLY A CONSTITUENT OF MATTER (ALONG WIT SOLIDITY, FLUIDITY AND GASEITY) AND NOT A FORM OF ENERGY. THIS APPEARS TO BE CORRECT. AN INSIGHT PERHAPS!
