\n<\/div>\n

A word in advance:
\nThis entry contains instructions for procedures that, due to their simplicity, are advanced practices.  Known collectively as, The Vacuum Cleaner for Your Mind<\/i>, they require sufficient control of your attention muscle<\/i> to do them.  Without that adequate control, some may find that their thinking-word mind is producing too much noise — noisier even, than The Vacuum Cleaner for Your Mind — <\/i>impossible for some, for now.<\/p>\n

The key for those with “noisy mind” and “weak attention muscle” is practice of The Gold Key Release <\/i><\/b>and The Middle-Way Memory Matrix Ritual.<\/b><\/p>\n

In this entry, I present two procedures — The Lightning Bolt <\/b>and The Thunderclap (“Flashing the Unknown Unknown”)<\/b>, that, when combined, provide a quick, nearly-instant way to disarm and dissolve grips seemingly held upon us held by unconscious habits of self-contraction and distress, so they can be sucked out of your mind, right then. Mental quiet ensues.<\/p>\n

\nRationale for the Lightening Bolt |
(The Hammer of Thor)<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
\n <\/span><\/span><\/b>(Walking Backward)<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n


<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

\nThe Lightning Bolt <\/b>is a back-door<\/b><\/span>
\n maneuver for surfacing and dissolving hidden grips that keep us buried
\nin the momentum of our habitual lives, confused and stuck — but . . . .
\n . hopeful !!!<\/b> above all, hopeful !!! <\/b>Another term for that is “dukkha”. It’s a “one foot on the accelerator, one foot on the brake” situation.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThose
\n hidden grips show up as patterns tendency for things to go a certain way, of behavior habits and characteristic personal experiences
\n that are recognizable in a person, that have a  feel <\/u>to
\n 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
\nthem.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThese
\n hidden grips show up as the chronic issues and ongoing complaints of a
\nperson’s existence; perhaps unexpectedly<\/i>, they also show up as the
\nvirtues they uphold. They are the programs of a person’s existence, a
\nbody of unfathomably deep-seated, totally unconscious tension sets (on
\nyour mark, get set . . . . . ) maintained perpetually on automatic:  all
\nkinds of memory conditioning, residual influences, sensations that are
\nbelow where attention ordinarily reaches in ourselves, unless flushed up enough to be recognized.  <\/p>\n

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

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

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

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

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

It’s what The
\nBuddha called, “a tacit intuition”. <\/p>\n

Practice of The Gold Key Release
\ndissolves the sense of “something-ness”, so that we may intuit our
\nformless presence, which, in that moment of intuition, we recognize as
\nhaving always been.<\/p>\n

When we catch that we are
\nconsidering “EVER-HERENESS” to be “something we can identify”, WE
\nRECOGNIZE THE FALLACY OF IT because EVER-HERENESS is not a product of
\nmind or an object of mind. It is of an order completely other than mind;
\n 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,
\nwe may release what we have mis-identified as EVER-HERENESS,” and intuit
\n the field of radiant awareness that underlies everything and pervades
\nus, ourselves.<\/p>\n

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

The reason The Lightening Bolt<\/b>
\n works is that our habitual states are always forms of definition or
\nlimited conditioning, whereas Reality is inherently formless.  When we
\nlet go of our sense of Reality, we are not<\/u> letting go of Reality, but of conditioning mis-identified<\/u> as Reality, but which we have held onto as if it were<\/u> Reality.<\/div>\n

\n<\/div>\n
\nSaid, again, when we do the release-step of The Lightening Bolt (The Hammer of Thor)<\/b>,
\n we may think we are releasing the effort to intuit, identify, or locate
\n Reality (our Here-ness), when what we are really releasing an effort
\nthat keeps us stuck in our conditioning, which, as I said, we confuse
\nwith “Here-ness”.  When we release the effort to intuit “Here-ness”
\n(or “Now-ness”, or “Reality”), we release the force of our conditioning
\nalong with it. What’s left is the intuition of formless Reality.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nMost strictly speaking, “Here-ness” is always<\/i> already the case and always<\/i> already our present condition.  We are always, already Here — so anything we may do to intuit “Here-ness” is in addition<\/i> to Here-ness and can only obscure our intuition of “Here-ness” as our already<\/i> condition.  The release that occurs in The Lightening Bolt only clears that way for that intuition.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThe
\n way to intuit Reality, or Here-ness, or “The Now”, is to let go of it
\nand any effort to intuit it.  Then, something entirely unexpected
\nflashes forward or the way clears into it. Beyond these words, nothing
\nuseful may be said.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nSo, strike The Lightening Bold a few times in a row.  Notice the result.  It gets interesting.<\/div>\n
\n<\/div>\n
\nThe Lightning Bolt<\/span><\/b><\/div>\n
\nThus:<\/b><\/div>\n
    \n
  1. \n
    \nIn your memory, fully experience whatever
    \nexperience you would like to dissolve, whether a negative condition, an
    \nideal that you recognize compulsively limits you, or any arbitrary thing
    \n you might like to change.<\/p>\n

    The steps are:<\/p>\n

    1. Feel its existence. [advanced:] Intend its existence. (one breath)
    \n2. Feel its persistence. [advanced:] Remember its persistence. (one breath)
    \n3. Feel its location. [advanced:] Attend to its location, as felt or experienced. (one breath)
    \n4. Feel its direction (where it’s going). [advanced:] Imagine its direction. It’s a kind of opening-to (one breath)<\/p>\n

    Do not think,<\/i> ruminate about<\/i>, or analyze<\/i> it; that’s not experiencing. Steady your attention on each step long enough for it to stabilize; you’ll get an experience. <\/p>\n

    You do the advanced forms once you easily remember the basic steps.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n
    \nFeel it all as a single intensity.<\/div>\n
    \n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
  3. Notice what is not<\/b> that. Feel until your
    \n attention steadies a bit.  Relax into it. Let yourself lose track of that shape. <\/p>\n

    (If
    \nyou can’t let yourself lose track and feel outside the shape, notice
    \nwhat constrains you — some tension or holding on. Feel that and continue.)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. Now, switch to noticing your sense of “Here-ness” — that which has always been the same, all your life.\n

    ALTERNATELY: Feel your whole body as the shape of a sensation.<\/li>\n

  5. Notice what you do to locate, “Here-ness”.
    The action feels like “centering”. It’s the target of the lightening-strike.\n

    ALTERNATELY: Hold the sensation, draw and release three breaths.<\/li>\n

  6. Recognize that sensation as a temporary, stressful effort.  Stop holding onto it.  Let it go.  Lose track of it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \nYou will feel tensions dissipate, yourself reshape, and probably sigh spontaneously as the experience dissolves partially or completely.<\/p>\n

    You
    \n have felt the experience as it is, diffused your attention as much as
    \nyou 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.<\/p>\n

    The Hammer of Thor<\/span><\/span><\/b>
    \nThe Hammer of Thor<\/b> uses the power of intention<\/b> <\/i>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.<\/p>\n

    The structure of The Hammer of Thor<\/b> is as follows:<\/p>\n

    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.<\/p>\n

    With that feeling-attention, follow these steps:<\/p>\n

    Think to yourself, with intent to experience it:<\/b><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Intending<\/li>\n
    2. Intending<\/li>\n
    3. Intending intending<\/li>\n
    4. Intending [the condition or conditioning].<\/li>\n
    5. Feel for and release your intention about it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n
      \nRepeat to a satisfactory result (dissolution of the item).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

      The Thunderclap \/ (a-Rumblin’ in the Canyon)<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/div>\n

      \nRationale <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
      \nThe things we experience, presently,
      \nhave a certain momentum to them, maintained by our memories of them.
      \n Those memories occupy the space in which we would like to put a new
      \nexperience, so we have to remove them to make space.<\/div>\n
      \n
      \nThe Thunderclap consists of two parts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
      \n
        \n
      1. By
        \n alternating between remembering our current experience and imagining our desired experience,
        \nwe loosen the grip and dissolve the density of the current experience.
        \n That action is the part of the “Thunderclap” that creates the needed space.<\/li>\n
      2. In the space created, we attend to and intend our desired experience.
        That “attending” and “intending” is a new reverberation in the world.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
        \nOnce you’ve created space and set up a new reverberation, persons and conditions around you that can<\/b><\/i> resonate with your intention begin to do so and, as they show up, you will perceive in them a possibility of fulfilling your intention.<\/div>\n
        \n<\/div>\n
        \nYou may use The Thunderclap <\/b>to fulfill desires or to transform conditions — to go beyond and then to go beyond <\/i>going beyond.<\/div>\n
        \n<\/div>\n
        \n<\/div>\n
        \nThe Thunderclap is thus:<\/b><\/div>\n
        \n<\/div>\n
          \n
        1. Identify an experience you would like to have.<\/li>\n
        2. Call up whatever you may remember about it.<\/li>\n
        3. Imagine the possibility. <\/li>\n
        4. Return to your memory of it.
          You will notice that your memories color your sense of possibility.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          \n
          <\/b><\/div>\n
          \nNow, when the space is noticeably clearer:<\/b><\/div>\n
          \n<\/div>\n
            \n
          1. Imagine how it all might change.<\/li>\n
          2. Remember how it all might change.<\/li>\n
          3. Imagine how it all might change.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
            \n
            <\/b><\/div>\n
            \nNow, when your perception of how it all might change is vivid:<\/b><\/div>\n
            \nApply your intention to what you have just imagined, one last time, to the degree you are able, and do The Lightning Bolt<\/b> on it.<\/div>\n
            \n<\/div>\n
            \nRepeat to a satisfactory result. Each cycle through will be different.  The closer your imagining gets to your felt ideal, the easier it will be to apply your intention (the push to have things change) to it.<\/div>\n
            \n<\/div>\n
            \nThus:<\/b><\/div>\n
            \n<\/div>\n
              \n
            1. \n
              \nIdentify<\/div>\n
              \n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
            2. Remember<\/li>\n
            3. Imagine<\/li>\n
            4. \n
              \nRemember<\/div>\n
              \n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
            5. Imagine <\/li>\n
            6. Remember<\/li>\n
            7. \n
              \nImagine<\/div>\n
              \n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n
            8. Intend.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
              \nRepeat to a satisfactory result.<\/div>\n
              \n<\/div>\n
              \nStages 2-4 and 5-7 are forms of reverberation and Step 8, like the ongoing rumbling of thunder.<\/div>\n
              \n<\/div>\n
              \nYou will feel your imagination contact results that are more and more in line with your intention, with each repetition.<\/div>\n
              \n<\/div>\n

              <\/p>\n

              \nIf you have difficulty reaching a satisfactory result, do The Lightning Bolt <\/b>and then return to<\/b> The Thunderclap<\/b>.<\/p>\n

              Transcendental Pervasion<\/span><\/b>
              \nAll experience<\/b> arises within and from<\/u> the Unknown Unknown. We<\/u> <\/b>arise from and within the Unknown Unknown.<\/p>\n

              The Unknown Unknown may be intuited by noticing the totality of<\/p>\n
