The Formula That Entraps Every Being

This formula of desire, aversion and ignorance
controls our every thought and action.

The word ‘formula’ (from the Latin – shape or mould) refers to an established pattern used to achieve a consistent result.

We’ve been moulded by belief, which is acceptance without proof. This acceptance reveals the power of suggestion by utilising our desires and aversions, and our ignorance of our true reality. We conform to whichever mould into which we squeeze.

In truth, each individual’s essence is pure consciousness, free of both form and belief. Meditation is a method or formula for mindful awareness, but once we arrive at awareness of awareness – pure consciousness – we drop the method, the formula, so that we don’t become attached to the form of meditation, and meditation experiences.

No one became enlightened by meditating;
they became enlightened by dropping the meditation.

Meditation is like soap to wash off the dirt.
Then we wash away the soap.
