  2. What is Bhavaïga? • Bhava = existence • Aïga = factor Bhavaïga = “factor of existence”

  15. MIND-DOOR COGNITIVE PROCESS Process-freed Mind-door cognitive process B B V A M J J J J J J J Rg Rg First javana generates immediately effective kamma, which can only produce its effect in this very life. Second through 6th javana generate indefinitely effective kamma, which can produce its effect at any time along samsara until one reaches Parinibbana 7th javana generates subsequently effective kamma, which can produce its results in the immediate future life.

  26. 5 Jhāna Factors • Initial application of mind (Vitakka) - the directing and placing of the mind onto the object of the pañibhāga nimitta. • Sustained application of mind (Vicāra) - the sustained keeping of the mind on the pañibhāga nimitta. • Joy (Pīti) - interest, or liking for the pañibhāga nimitta. • Happiness (Sukha) - Pleasant feeling or happiness associated with experiencing the pañibhāga nimitta. • One-pointedness (Ekaggatā) - One-pointedness of mind or fixing the mind firmly on the pañibhāga nimitta.

  27. The 4th Ultimate-TruthNibbànaORUnconditioned Element(Asaïkhata-dhtu = Asaïkhata-Nibbna)

  28. NIRVANA • Nirvana is combination of 2 words • Nir = departure • Vana = craving • Nibbana is departure from craving

  29. 3 Types of Nibbāna • 1. Uncondition Element (Asaïkhata-dhtu = Asaïkhata-Nibbna) which is the 4th Ultimate-Truth • 2. Nibbāna with remainder of aggreates (Sa-updisesa-Nibbna) • 3. Nibbāna without remainder of aggreates (Anupdisesa-Nibbna)

  30. 1.Uncondition Element (Asaïkhata-dhtu=Asaïkhata-Nibbna) • It is the Third Noble Truth, the Noble Truth of cessation of suffering(Nirodha-Saccā). • It is supramundane, that is, beyond the world of mind-and-matter or the five aggregates of clinging. It is the extinction of all greed, hatred, and delusion, and is the state of final deliverance from the suffering inherent in conditioned existence. It is unconditioned dhamma (asakhata dhamma). • It is not conditioned by any cause. Hence it is not subject to any becoming, change of state, and dissolution. It is permanent, happiness, and not-self. • It is the object of the four Paths (magga) and four Fruitions (phala).

  31. When one’s insight knowledge becomes matured by contemplating, either, anicca, dukkha, or anatta of formations (sakhra), one attains Nibbna. • At that time, the cognitive process of supramundane stream-entry path(sotpatti magga vthi) runs as follows:

  32. Sotāpanna FIRST ATTAINMENT OF PATH AND FRUITION In Path and Fruition Mind moments, mental formations = 34 + 3 Abstinences (Right Speech + Right Action + Right livelihood) = 37 Object: either impermanent, suffering, or non-self nature of formations Object: NIBBâNA V A M Pr Ac Cn Ch Pa Fr Fr B……

  33. preparation (parikamma), which prepares the mental continuum for the attainment of Path consciousness • access (upacāra), which arises in proximity to the attainment of Path consciousness • conformity (anuloma), which harmonizes the preceding moments with the subsequent attainment of the Path. After this, one’s consciousness no longer enters into or settles down on any field of formations • change-of-lineage (gotrabhu) arises, which takes as its object the signless, the non-occurrence, the cessation (Nibbāna) which passes out of the lineage of worldlings (puthujjana) and enters into the lineage of the Noble Ones (Ariya).

  34. FIRST ATTAINMENT OF PATH AND FRUITION V A M Pr Ac Cn Ch Pa Fr Fr B…… RESULTANT CONSCIOUSNESS Function – to experience the liberation after eradiction of defilements: • PENETRATE INTO THE 4 NOBLE TRUTHS • Understand the Truth of Suffering • Abandon the Origin of the Truth of Suffering • Realizing the Cessation of Suffereing • Developing the Noble Eightfold Path • WHOLESOME CONSCIOUSNESS • Function – to eradicate defilements, such as the 3 fetters: • Personality view • Clinging to rites and rituals in the belief that they can lead to Nibbāna • Doubt about the Triple Gem

  35. The 5 Aggregates of Clinging = The Truth of Suffering • Aggregate of Materiality • Aggregate of Feeling • Aggregate of Perception • Aggregate of Formation • Aggregate of Consciousness First Noble Truth should be fully known

  36. Stream-entry path consciousness permanently uproots three fetters: • Personality View. He no longer considers the five aggregates as I, mine, or myself. • 2.Attachment to Rites and Rituals. Such as the practice of imitating the behaviour of cows and dogs, various forms of torturing the body such as sleeping on thorns etc., thinking that the practice will purify the defilements and lead to escape from the rounds of rebirth. • 3. Doubt. Doubt towards the Buddha, the Dhamma, and the Sangha (Triple Gem).

  37. The benefits of attaining First Path and Fruition Knowledge (Sotpanna) • Closes the doors to the Four Woeful States. • Shortens the suffering in the begin-less rounds of rebirth. • Assurance of seven rebirths before final enlightenment. • Possession of the Seven Noble Treasures. • Confidence • Morality • Shame of wrongdoing • Fear of wrongdoing • Learning • Generosity • Insight Knowledge or wisdom

  38. Sotāpanna ATTAINMENT OF FRUITION Object: either impermanent, suffering, or non-self nature of formations Object: NIBBâNA V A M Pr Ac Cn Pu Fr Fr Fr …… B…… Pu = purification

  39. 3 doors to emancipation • If one contemplates anicca of formations (sakhra) andrealizes Nibbna, it is called contemplationof the sign less (animitttànupassanā). • If one contemplates dukkha of formations (sakhra) andrealizes Nibbna, it is called contemplationsof the desire less (appaõihitànupassanà). • If one contemplates anatta of formations (sakhra) andrealizes Nibbna, it is called contemplationof the void (su¤¤atànupassanà).

  40. 2. Sa-upādisesa-Nibbna • Itis the effect of Arahant Path knowledge which realizes the Asaïkhata-Nibbna (Asaïkhata-dhtu) • It is also called Kilesa-Parinibbāna (the cessation of defilements)

  41. 3. Anupdisesa-Nibbna • Itis the effect of Arahant Path knowledge which realizes the Asaïkhata-Nibbna(Asaïkhata-dhtu) • It is also called Khanda-Parinibbna (the cessation of aggregates)
