“inner conflict” incantation


introduction

This is one of a series of incantations I have used to attain nibbana – the total end of suffering.

If you would like to use this tool, it might be helpful to understand the larger context within which it is intended to be used …

The heroic path to nibbana

incantation

When inner conflict is present 

and 

the inner conflict is unpleasant 

and

the unpleasantness of the inner conflict    is strong 

and

the desire to experience inner peace is present

and 

the desire to experience inner peace    is strong

and

energy is present …

and

the energy   is strong…

and 

the will to fight for inner peace is present …

and 

the will to fight for inner peace   is strong …

then …

May I summon the resolve to resolve this conflict

like so …


1: May I be resolved to hunt for truth.

2: May I be resolved to patiently and persistently do the work necessary to acquire the wisdom through which truth is revealed.

3: May I be resolved, in a spirit of generosity, to relinquish any view which hinders the arising of truth

even if doing so is intensely painful

these 3 resolves


knowing that 

If I am resolved to 

FEEL CONTEMPT    for the weakness 

of the choice to NOT 

hunt for truth

If I am resolved to 

FEEL CONTEMPT   for the weakness 

of the choice to NOT 

patiently and persistently do the work necessary to acquire the wisdom through which truth is revealed …

If I am resolved to 

FEEL CONTEMPT    for the weakness 

of the choice to to NOT 

in a spirit of generosity, relinquish any view which hinders the arising of truth

even if doing so is intensely painful

these 3 resolves


if I am resolved to 

ENDURE   and to 

CONQUER    the discomfort of 

hunting for truth

if I am resolved to 

ENDURE   and to 

CONQUER    the discomfort of 

patiently and persistently doing the work necessary to acquire the wisdom through which truth is revealed.

if I am resolved to 

ENDURE   and to 

CONQUER    the discomfort of 

in a spirit of generosity, relinquishing any view which hinders the arising of truth

even if doing so is intensely painful

these 3 resolves


if I am resolved to 

TRANSFORM 

pain into fuel,

avoidance into skillful searching for truth,

anger into skillful discernment of truth,

fear into salivatory excitement

in longing anticipation of the many treasures of 

rebirth through truth …


if I am resolved to 

stop   and to

open   and to 

reach out   and to 

connect   and to 

summon

faith,

and the courage to  keep  pushing  forward


if I am resolved to heroically pursue

truth, 

the wisdom which through which it grows and 

the relinquishment through which it is born

into this world

then,

in the moment of the birth of insight …

when the unconscious becomes conscious …

when the knees of the dragon begin to buckle …

in response to the cry of the treasure of truth being born into this world …

… the conflict raging within my soul will   finally   be resolved.


Suffering will give way to rapture

will give way to deep inner PEACE and tranquility

will give way to a mind completely unified in 

single   pointed    a, as

time   stands   still.

(pause)


and with a new found wisdom

having been reborn into a new world

with beginner’s mind,

the one who is thus 

will move through this world 

with enduring equanimity

born of an enduring inner peace

as the reward

for enduring the discomfort

of these 3 resolves.


Stronger.

Wiser.

More powerful than ever.

Hungry to do it again.

Longing to do it again.

Salivating to do it again.

Over and over and over again.

Growing stronger and stronger

with each and every hunt.

Growing wiser and wiser

with each treasure taken.


These are the 4 resolves:

1: sacca: truth

2: paññā: wisdom

3: cāga: “relinquishment”

4: upasama: peace
