Process of Consciousness and Matter

Process of Consciousness and Matter Process of Consciousness and Matter by Aggamahāpaṇḍita Dr. Rewata Dhamma is a detailed English-language supplement to the acclaimed A Comprehensive Manual of Abhidhamma by Bhikkhu Bodhi. Aimed at serious students of Buddhist psychology and philosophy, this work expands on the intricate frameworks of citta (consciousness) and rūpa (matter) as presented in the Abhidhamma Pitaka. Drawing on both classical Pāli sources and modern insights, it explores thought processes, mental factors, kalāpas, and the interplay between mind and matter with clarity and structure. Originally published by Triple Gem Publications and edited posthumously with support from leading Burmese scholars, this book provides rare and rich insights previously available only in Myanmar-language texts. Rewata Dhamma, a respected teacher and scholar, bridges the gap between theoretical understanding and meditative experience, making this an essential resource for those studying advanced Buddhist thought. Readers are encouraged to use this as a follow-up to A Comprehensive Manual of Abhidhamma and to consult additional resources like the Abhidhamma section on HolyBooks.com. The text also resonates with contemporary philosophical and scientific approaches, offering parallels with Western thought in psychology and consciousness studies. Download the free PDF e-book here:

“These three principles form a graded sequence of steps progressing from the outward and preparatory to the inward and essential....Purification of mind as understood in the Buddha's teaching is the sustained endeavor to cleanse the mind of defilements, those dark unwholesome mental forces which run beneath the surface stream of consciousness vitiating our thinking, values, attitudes, and actions. The chief among the defilements are the three that the Buddha has termed the "roots of evil" — greed, hatred, and delusion — from which emerge their numerous offshoots and variants: anger and cruelty, avarice and envy, conceit and arrogance, hypocrisy and vanity, the multitude of erroneous views.” Bhikkhu Bodhi #purificationofmindandheart #meditation #innerwealth #defilementsofthemind #thethreepoisons #wholesomequalitiesofmind #bhikkhubodhi #buddha #dharma https://www.instagram.com/p/BvIb-yxnaAH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ygt405gyee4p

I am a consummate nerd. While I work I listen to lectures. The primary topics tend to be Buddhism, psychedelics, physics, and philosophy. It strikes me that I'm probably not alone, though I don't know anyone else who does this. Do you? On the screen right now is a class on the Abbidhamma taught by Bikkhu Bodhi. The Abhidharma is a technical approach to their psychology. Itfeels more like a treatise on physics than psychology. #nerd #buddhism #buddhist #bhikkhubodhi — view on Instagram http://bit.ly/2Ndu21A

Mini Mindfulness Break for January 03, 2021 . Vision and Routine . The key to development along the Buddhist path is repetitive routine guided by inspirational vision. It is the insight into final freedom--the peace and purity of a liberated mind--that uplifts us and impels us to overcome our limits. But it is by repetition--the methodical cultivation of wholesome practices--that we cover the distance separating us from the goal and draw ever closer to awakening. .

"Mini Mindfulness Break for June 03, 2019" . Building Faith, Building Commitment . For Buddhism, faith doesn't mean the blind acceptance of teachings as unquestionable dogmas. Rather, faith suggests a combination of trust in the Buddha as a fully enlightened teacher, confidence in the Buddha and in his guidance, and feelings of devotion and reverence towards the Buddha. This quality of faith is to be strengthened because it's what builds our own commitment to the entire practice. . Bhikkhu Bodhi, "Recollection of the Buddha" (Tricycle Online Retreat, June 2012) .
