Why did Buddha continue to meditate, even AFTER
he accomplished full enlightenment?
Why didn’t he stand up and proclaim,
“I’m going to Disneyworld!”?
To answer that we first have to answer, this…
"What is the difference between a Buddha and a Bodhisattva?"
They both practice the mental yogas of:
• devotion,
• awareness,
• love and
• letting-go.
So then what’s the difference?
Do the Buddha’s know a secret technique, or
maybe a secret handshake
{ya know, like the Shriners or like the members of my Collage Fraternity }?
Nope, the only difference is mastery.
A Buddha is simply a Bodhisattva who has
learned to practice Buddha’s four yogas:
• spontaneously,
• habitually,
• easily and
• effectively.
Hey, did ya notice the “H” word?
It’s all about habituating the practices.
It’s been said that although it can take 21 days {in a row} to
install a good habit, into our mind, heart, and body, it
could only take as little as 3 consecutive days to undermine it.
So, why did Buddha persist in meditation, even after
he accomplished full enlightenment?
Because in his wisdom he could see the benefits of
continuing to nurture the profoundly constructive spiritual habits that
he had manifested… couldn’t you?
That is exactly why I insist that you are only my student when
you enthusiastically apply my instructions.
And the core of my instructions is to practice no less
then 9 minutes, twice a day, every day.
