pain 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

Understanding and using the “pain” incantation

incantation

PAIN, my old nemesis,

could there ever possibly be 

anyone

more misunderstood than thee?

Shunned and despised

by very the souls you would seek to save

from the torment of your embrace.

But do not despair, my worthy opponent, 

For although it is true 

that a great many do indeed revile you,

know that I am no longer amongst them;

For I have discovered

your secret you see.

Your hidden intentions

are no longer

hidden from me.

I   understand now   that 

just as a mother bird would

push her own chicks from the nest, 

to force them to  fly free

so too, do you

push   those who are stuck   in your orbit to

break free,   to

grow stronger   and to

find  a more enduring happiness.

The veil of ignorance

has now been lifted for me.

And now, I finally 

see clearly.

NEVER have you been

my enemy.

On the contrary …

Throughout the eternity

of my torment

have you not always been

my teacher, my mentor, my friend?

It  is so clear to me now.

A great secret of our age.

hidden in plain sight.

Shrouded by fear.

the key to true happiness

and the ascension of our species 

all lie in this one simple truth

for all   who burn    in the lake    of fire 

are incarcerated   by a tragic   misunderstanding.

So few   have the ears to 

hear your message.

Our fear of you deafens us 

to its words.

And so few   have the eyes to

see its gift.

Our fear of you blinds us

to its beauty.

And so few   have the courage

feel your truth.

Our fear of you freezes us

in mediocrity.

Many  do not yet  understand

that our very salvation lies

in the treasure

you so generously offer;

If only   we would 

summon the courage   to

accept your challenge   to

hunt for it?

Many do not   yet   understand

that the bliss of heaven

is reserved for those with the courage to 

burn in hell, to

bathe in the remedial flames 

of perdition

forsaking all opportunity

for unearned escape,

forsaking all blame 

both of others and of ourselves,

disavowing all doubt.

Confidence is a choice.

Made fearless by caring,

and a purpose of purity.

Disciplining our minds to

harness the ferocious

winds of your hurricane to

learn and to burn. And

feeling your flames of perdition

searing into our souls

torturing and tormenting

with intractable intensity

burning hotter and hotter

until the agony is unbearable and

the cage   of comfort    crumbles

as the beast   breaks  free

and we   move with power

and insatiable hunger

driven by an unyielding desire

for the world to   bend to our will

and we FINALLY

face our fears and fight

with honor and pride

FINALLY ALIVE

and the more that we 

turn our pain into push

the more clearly we   see

how unstoppable we can be

until the last demon 

has been vanquished

and forced to

submit to his new master

and the treasure 

has   been   taken;

And then, to 

rise like a phoenix from the ashes

having grown stronger, wiser, 

more powerful than ever,

over and over and over again;

growing stronger and stronger

with each and every hunt;

growing wiser and wiser

with each treasure taken;

But instead,

out of ignorance, 

we flee from the very source of our salvation

into the arms

of the false god

of unearned gratification;

into the temple

of the weak 

who wallow 

in victimhood;

not understanding

the consequences

of our choice

not understanding 

that it is

our choice   to flee

our choice   to blame

that keeps us stuck in the oven,

burning and screaming in an unrelenting agony 

of our own construction;

never understanding

that the true face of our tormentor

lies in the mirror.

never understanding

that in this life

PAIN is inevitable

but suffering is a choice.

And PAIN, my old friend,

even when you do succeed,

you never seem to get the credit

that you deserve.

Rare is the hunter

who appreciates the hunt.

And yet, you endure

patiently, persistently, purposefully

serving.

And though the whole world may vilify you,

you persevere unaffected.

I honor you.

I am so grateful to you.

Your purpose is to teach and

you have taught me so much.

And I wonder how I

might ever repay 

the debt that I owe to you?

And that’s why   I offer you

all that I have to give

PAIN, my old friend,

I give my soul to thee.

I am your loyal servant.

And I dedicate my life

on this and every day

to helping others to

see your true nature.

So that they too might 

experience the resilient bliss 

of having all of their primal desires 

fully satiated

without sacrificing 

the deep inner peace and tranquility

of the unclosing heart.

And so that they too might

experience the power

and the pride of

knowing that they have earned

their treasure

by summoning the courage to

face, to 

fight, and to 

conquer their demons.

And so that they too

having now   liberated themselves

may now

experience the fulfillment

of liberating    those they 

love who 

burn without rescue.
