Psycho-Active TetraSeed Transformations | The “Vajra” Self-Rectifying Process

Rationale for the Lightening Bolt |
(The Hammer of Thor)

The Lightning Bolt is a back-door
maneuver for surfacing and dissolving hidden grips that keep us buried
in the momentum of our habitual lives, confused and stuck — but . . . .
. hopeful !!! above all, hopeful !!! Another term for that is “dukkha”. It’s a “one foot on the accelerator, one foot on the brake” situation.

Those
hidden grips show up as patterns tendency for things to go a certain way, of behavior habits and characteristic personal experiences
that are recognizable in a person, that have a  feel to
them that are part of the person’s sense of self, their presence, their way of harmony in life, more or less, their personal quality and the habits by which people recognize
them.

These
hidden grips show up as the chronic issues and ongoing complaints of a
person’s existence; perhaps unexpectedly, they also show up as the
virtues they uphold. They are the programs of a person’s existence, a
body of unfathomably deep-seated, totally unconscious tension sets (on
your mark, get set . . . . . ) maintained perpetually on automatic:  all
kinds of memory conditioning, residual influences, sensations that are
below where attention ordinarily reaches in ourselves, unless flushed up enough to be recognized. 

When flushed up, are
seen to major distortions in oneself in the form of, “How it the
world did I get that way??”  But before that, it is generally something
unrecognized that we do and experience again and again, and again.

Such an experience, as and however remembered, can be “blitzed” by The Lightning Bolt or shattered by The Hammer of Thor
— to dissolve away the part or aspect of that behavior pattern that we
confuse with the basic reality of life and so believe is unavoidable.

We may artfully use The Lightning Bolt and The Gold Key Release, alternately, to good effect; one does “clean-up” after the other. 

We
confuse conditional reality with our fundamental sense of
ever-hereness, which IS reality; we confuse (mentally fuse) conditional
reality with Eternal EVER-HERENESS — and the sign of this confusion is
the feeling that things will never change (which is how it feels,
whatever we may think). This confusion of EVER-HERENESS with memory
gives memory an air of permanence, even while it’s temporary.

BACKGROUND:  Ever-Here-ness and Conditional Reality
EVER-HERENESS
doesn’t change — and it ain’t nuthin’ in particular. It “always
already IS”.  However, for these words to make sense, you must have
awakened to the intuition of, “that which has been the same all my life”
— which is not an object of attention (inner or outer), nor anything that can be intended, remembered or imagined.

It’s what The
Buddha called, “a tacit intuition”.

Practice of The Gold Key Release
dissolves the sense of “something-ness”, so that we may intuit our
formless presence, which, in that moment of intuition, we recognize as
having always been.

When we catch that we are
considering “EVER-HERENESS” to be “something we can identify”, WE
RECOGNIZE THE FALLACY OF IT because EVER-HERENESS is not a product of
mind or an object of mind. It is of an order completely other than mind;
it is “formless feeling”, a kind of feeling that dissolves attention so we come to rest in a natural way as “consciousness without an object”.  At that moment of recognition,
we may release what we have mis-identified as EVER-HERENESS,” and intuit
the field of radiant awareness that underlies everything and pervades
us, ourselves.

Contrary to everything we have thought or have heard, Reality is unknown by us, unknown to us — not a form of knowledge, at all, but ineffable experience that cannot be reduced to comprehension.  Reality cannot be defined.

The reason The Lightening Bolt
works is that our habitual states are always forms of definition or
limited conditioning, whereas Reality is inherently formless.  When we
let go of our sense of Reality, we are not letting go of Reality, but of conditioning mis-identified as Reality, but which we have held onto as if it were Reality.

Said, again, when we do the release-step of The Lightening Bolt (The Hammer of Thor),
we may think we are releasing the effort to intuit, identify, or locate
Reality (our Here-ness), when what we are really releasing an effort
that keeps us stuck in our conditioning, which, as I said, we confuse
with “Here-ness”.  When we release the effort to intuit “Here-ness”
(or “Now-ness”, or “Reality”), we release the force of our conditioning
along with it. What’s left is the intuition of formless Reality.

Most strictly speaking, “Here-ness” is always already the case and always already our present condition.  We are always, already Here — so anything we may do to intuit “Here-ness” is in addition to Here-ness and can only obscure our intuition of “Here-ness” as our already condition.  The release that occurs in The Lightening Bolt only clears that way for that intuition.

The
way to intuit Reality, or Here-ness, or “The Now”, is to let go of it
and any effort to intuit it.  Then, something entirely unexpected
flashes forward or the way clears into it. Beyond these words, nothing
useful may be said.

So, strike The Lightening Bold a few times in a row.  Notice the result.  It gets interesting.

The Lightning Bolt

Thus:

You will feel tensions dissipate, yourself reshape, and probably sigh spontaneously as the experience dissolves partially or completely.

You
have felt the experience as it is, diffused your attention as much as
you can, and then located and struck at the center of your sense of “persistent reality” and then dissolved it — hence the name, The Lightning Bolt. Imagine a little puff of smoke where your sense of reality used to be. Just kidding.

The Hammer of Thor
The Hammer of Thor uses the power of intention to undo the effects of conditioning. It reveals how our own intention, running on automatic, keeps that conditioning in existence, and relieves us of that condition either in big chunks or, in the case of extremely dense conditioning, layer by layer.

The structure of The Hammer of Thor is as follows:

Locate and identify the feeling of the condition or conditioning you want to pulverize and dissipate. This step is similar to the equivalent steps in the other procedures presented on this page. You may use variations of this step found in other procedures. Use what works well, for you.

With that feeling-attention, follow these steps:

Think to yourself, with intent to experience it:

1. Intending
2. Intending
3. Intending intending
4. Intending [the condition or conditioning].
5. Feel for and release your intention about it.

Repeat to a satisfactory result (dissolution of the item).

The things we experience, presently,
have a certain momentum to them, maintained by our memories of them.
 Those memories occupy the space in which we would like to put a new
experience, so we have to remove them to make space.

The Thunderclap consists of two parts.

1. By
   alternating between remembering our current experience and imagining our desired experience,
   we loosen the grip and dissolve the density of the current experience.
    That action is the part of the “Thunderclap” that creates the needed space.
2. In the space created, we attend to and intend our desired experience.
   That “attending” and “intending” is a new reverberation in the world.

That which we look for, beyond seeing,

and call the unseen,

listen for, beyond hearing,

and call the unheard,

reach for, beyond grasping,

and call the withheld

merge beyond understanding in a Oneness

that does not merely rise and give light

set and leave darkness

but forever sends forth a succession of living things

as mysterious as the unbegotten existence to which they return.

That is why men have called them empty phenomena

with no face to meet, no back to follow.

Yet one who is anciently aware of existence

is master of every moment,

feels no break, since time-beyond-time

in the way life flows.

This procedure depends upon your having sufficient mastery of your attention/intention/memory/imagination to remain free of the attraction of thought and in direct experience. It goes as follows:

The actual doing of the procedure is much simpler than the words used to describe it. The first time is the most difficult. After that (if you have adequate control of your own mind), the process is readily available.
