There are two aspects of mind:
- True nature of mind, which is pure awareness, clean and clear, luminous void. (akin space)
- Dualistic mind, which perceives conceptions, subject and object. (akin field and charge)
The “I” is emergent the mind-stream of dualistic mind’s consciousnesses.
Mediative meditation can be sustained by focusing the mind on an objective (a mental object: such as an image; a mandala; a mantra; etc…, a physical object, an activity: such as archery; hatha yoga; breathing; etc…, etc…). Therein focusing, directing, and thus gaining control of the mind and stream.
Meditative absorption begins to develop when the object of mind is on the subject, the mind itself, and a conceptual understanding of its nature emerges. Mind that aspires to awaken.
Pure Awareness is attained on clearing the mind, and thus without effort sustained. Mind awaken.
