A student writes: I have a few questions on Medition One, Reflection of the Continuity of Consciousness. HOW DO YOU DO IT?!
Nick Ribush responds: Dear All, Here’s Lama Yeshe’s advice on meditation on mental continuity, given during a retreat he led in Australia in 1975. Much love, n In the next meditation session, I would like you to check up how your mind of today is related to the experiences of yesterday’s ego games. Check; observe. How are they linked? Similarly, check back to last week; last month; last year. Go all the way back through your life. Check with your big wisdom eye how your ego and attachment have functioned over the years; how you have identified things at different ages; how you have perceived different views, all of which have been projections of your own ego. If your mind were not connected with last year’s ego, there’d be no reason for memories to uncontrollably keep coming back into your mind. Therefore, check how these experiences relate to the continuity of mind. Go back as far as your time in the womb. Forgetting previous experiences and clinging to the future is not realistic. Un
