We have a (micro)cosmos in the body. If you realize the dhamma, then that dhamma is in particular location on a body and you cycle it through other points too. There is also this that you got to put it into a microcosmic orbit to circulate, otherwise no meditation happen and progress too won't occur.
You are still mixing up teachings. This can only lead to papanca and confusion.
True dhamma is very methodical, step by step.
There isn't straight line what goes lets say from heart to your palms, there are realms in between to be crossed over by knowing different sādhana's, there isn't one trick fits all.
In fact N8FP is one path that fit all. Using own experience to align to the path to realize the result/fruit by staying/dwelling in the path all the time.
This is how one gain confidence in true triple gems. Because one can realize the results NOW (IF the faculties are there). One also know with confidence all ariya walk the same path.
i agree there is long road ahead which you already have walked many times before, cycling over and over again, just have no means to gain perception, develop the mind yet. I hope you gather enough intent by seeing the anicca, dukkha and anatta of conditioned things.
Anicca, dukkha are being seen every single day or moment for one who has heard true dhamma. Why do you still need to gather enough intention????
I am confused, when people keep talking about anicca, dukkha. They are breathing all the time, they don't know breathing and/or eating are dukkha.
To enter the stream, one needs to know/understand(not fully known yet) this before hand.
To achieve samma samadhi, one needs to see the anicca/dukkha of the kamaloka. And so on, up to the top/peak. Then, let go all (of course one by one) because of the defects.
It goes like this, when you open a psychic center in a body, you acquire something. And certain center it is said to be rare if someone opens it.
Developing the mind entails gaining ability to see a pattern of a mind what it regularly goes through, mentally see the formation or taste, sensation of it too and then can stop following that route, simply by taking your mind off from it.
Not everyone has the same qualities/faculties. This can only lead to papanca as well. If you don't have the faculties.
Rarely i have seen one who has psychic power that show off. One can see past and future and read mind.
A smart one will look at the tools (body, conditions,etc) that being given and then do the easy tasks first and proceed to more difficult one while maintaining the developed qualities/faculties.
A fool will try hard tasks first and never realize anything again and again. This is what happen nowadays, people meditate without knowing the precepts, and not hearing true dhamma. Then, they have hallucinations.
This teaching looks simple, but most can't follow it properly (step by step).
Btw Any Ariya can be a Samma sambuddha or Pacceka Buddha. Only problem is whether one got the chance for the conditions to arise or not.
If you have desire for psychic power, an arahant freed both way should have 3/6 knowledges similar to a Samma SamBuddha. See Maha Moggallana or Anuruddha, Maha Kassapa, etc. But still need to enter the stream first.
Anyway, good luck. Please be smart. Don't waste too much time in samsara. One mistake may lead to lower realms. And most will go down unfortunately. Once one is down there, no Buddha no Bodhisatta can help anyone in lower realm.
