Introduction to Awakening Meditation
Awakening Meditation is a highly progressive meditation practice sent in the age of awakening from Teacher Tạ Minh Tuấn. As the entire world suffers from the Covid-19 outbreak that has become a global pandemic, deep within it lies a great lesson all humanity needs to learn.
Awakening Meditation is a meditation practice focused on helping students connect with the Inner Teacher and inner wisdom — their true wisdom. From there, they awaken to necessary lessons, develop qualities, achieve mental concentration, and continue evolving spiritually, fulfilling their consciousness journey.
What is special about Awakening Meditation, this is almost the only type of meditation focused entirely on awakening to lessons by accessing the deep unconscious and approaching unconscious wisdom, the wisdom of this entire universe. This is also called the progressive wisdom of the Inner Teacher.
The Nature of Karma and Spiritual Lessons
The only reason we continue to be reborn is that the flow of cause and effect and karmic consequences continues to be reborn. Karma is uncleansed memory and unlearned lessons, so learning a lesson is also balancing or transforming karma.
Buddha is a general term for an enlightened being, someone who has learned every lesson and no longer needs rebirth because there are no lessons left to learn. Therefore, the Buddha's karmic inventory is zero. The Buddha has no karma left, no memories needing cleansing.
Lessons often relate to qualities and virtues we need to integrate. Learning a lesson means transforming negative distortions within and integrating positive qualities into consciousness, so learning is also tied to developing qualities and virtues.
Key Characteristics of Awakening Meditation
The Buddha is also someone who has integrated all qualities through 360 degrees, thus becoming a circle, complete, fully enlightened, fulfilled, without imperfections, greed, hatred, delusion, or ignorance; everything is fulfilled.
Awakening Meditation focusing on these helps meditators awaken inner wisdom, recognize lessons, integrate qualities, transform distortions, balance karma, and fulfill their spiritual journey.
Proactive Wisdom in Awakening Meditation
