Complete Reality

8 posts in this topic

People who see reality and respond to its potential do not see things relative to personal views, so they are said to work with essence directly without bias. Such virtuous accord in reality has no basis in good, bad, conventional mores, nor does it align with birth and death, karma, or creation. So convention, birth, death, karma and creation do not direct their actions. This is not a matter of morality, it’s an actuality of reality; and reality, is selfless. Therefore, only those who know existence of personal selfhood perpetuate knowledge of personal selfhood, whereas those who know nonorigination assimilate potential by unified selfless awareness; as above, so below: working with what is the same, one arrives as the same.

Buddhism calls adaptive, living, nonorigninated actuality “subtle spiritual operation”, in the context of situational evolution. Taoist tradition has manifested teaching systems employing elements of alchemically inspired mnemonic and evolutionary devices built around the firing process. The taoist alchemic teaching style that flourished in the 1100s derives from a heavily veiled work from 1000 years prior called The Triplex Unity. What is the point of spiritual alchemy? Its effect is to refine away the errant aspect of the human psychological apparatus.

Intimate mystic experience of the Absolute by sudden enlightenment is only an evidence of efficacy. Inconceivable selfless realization of nonoriginated aware potential not only does NOT confer buddhahood, such realization is also to be regarded as non-essential to seeing reality impersonally and adapting its inherent enlightening potential to conditions in the course of carrying out effective self-refining practice. Why? Because enlightenment, presently at your finger tips and pervading the whole view including your pointed nose is already impersonally accessible on the spot. Gradual refinement is the process of assimilating one’s inherent enlightening qualities to the degree one can see through phenomena, including one’s own psychological patterns, without denying their characteristics; this being the subtle method of nonpsychological clarification. This means effective self-refinement is not dependent on characteristic habit-energy, other than for assuming a context for the practice of continuous subtle observation. So for those holding out for some kind of mind to mind transmission from a fashionably acceptable current or future guru du jour~ it is simply not necessary or advantageous to wait a further single moment, much less for betting on the slim chance of future human lifetimes to project one’s potential for buddhahood beyond the next kalpa.

Seeing through phenomena without denying personally and impersonally attributed characteristics is to see them as is, in reality, which is essentially empty of self. The object itself is psychologically immaterial. Knowing this and proceeding to adapt in terms of this is selfless accord in reality. Seeing this is arriving at realization of open accord within delusional attributes. Seeing this momentarily is a momentary increment of clarification. Such true and authentic practice carried out endlessly eventually arrives at perfect cessation of karmic evolution. Even so, one’s recognition and acceptance of inherent enlightening function seeing reality and carrying out subtle spiritual adaption passing through endless situations without following the Creative unbeknownst to anyone does not engage in the employment of one’s personal power. In the whole realm, who knows?

This is the meaning of the phrase, “the world is the sage”, in that situational potential is completely the world at large without remainder. It’s not the person, therefore it is not a matter of discriminatory knowledge relative to the thinker, knower, and liver of life. The criteria of subtle adaption is up to the situation, not the person. The point is, there is nothing one needs to know, in terms of conceiving habitual projections of (one’s) psychological patterning, so subtle spiritual adaption does not employ the use of one’s (the personality’s) own power. This is how unified consciousness really works in the midst of everyday ordinary situational delusion in which oneself has never transformed karmically as an otherwise separate absolute. How else would unified consciousness come to be referenced as such? Unified consciousness is not somewhere else. It’s your own nonpsychological awareness right now in terms of one’s impersonal observation of situational potential. Therefore, those who see situational potential as reality’s underlying selfless unity are sages.

The spiritual is not actualized, much less clarified, by psychological consciousness. What makes enlightening activity “spiritual” is simply due to the fact that it is nonpsychological, as it has nothing to do with the person, words, reason, morality, right, wrong, good or bad. In other words, it is void of self-referencing, which is the working definition of spontaneous impersonal adaption. Being that it is a matter of impersonally seeing reality as is, it only requires awakening to and continually clarifying the perfect emptiness of one’s inherent open awareness to actualize the natural enlightening function. Hongzhi said to “just accept the function, take the forward step with open hands and share yourself with the world.” It’s not a separate reality, it’s just right now wherever you are in perpetuity before the first thought. Taoism calls this resting in the highest good. It has been likened to a cat waiting at a mouse hole. It is the very point of incipient upwelling of potential. How subtle would such a continuous concentration of intent have to be to constitute one’s perpetual arrival at the homeland of nothing whatsoever? Would it be obvious that the highest good of taoism is not relative to moral conventions of self and other, good or bad, or else otherwise conceived as employing one’s psychological apparatus whereby one dubiously amasses karmic debt by acting on "triggered" personal bias? Just what could one’s penetration and arrival at selfless accord in reality without remainder be?

People’s habituation to psychological self-referencing is conditioned conscious knowledge, whereby such thought is predominantly in terms of habitual self-reification relative to the personality. Unfortunately, through the economy of pure habit, conscious knowledge of one’s inherent absolute impersonal nature is obscured, and people loose their connection to unified objective discernment. Therefore, use of discriminatory conscious knowledge isn’t a moral pejorative, in terms of ego, per se, but by habituation to patterned psychological response, one’s fidelity to its inherent foundation in objectivity, being true knowledge, is lost, as the projections of psychological temperament become increasingly sintered into the compounded delusional matrix of karmic momentum. No matter whether projections be subtle or extreme, when reality has been long lost, the authentic teaching of reversion to purity being the natural operation of spiritual alchemy is that which all prior illuminates of the school of Complete Reality (Quanzhen) profess for the benefit of those whose karmic disposition resonates with the path of working directly with essence.
