Thanks Griffin,
I'll communicate any way you wish. The water is deep....let's go for a swim! : )
The origin is hindu. Buddhism sprang from hinduism...buddha read the vedas...and attained enlightenment and buddhism spread into china.
It is necessary to transcend the conscious mind, "reign in the horses of the 5 senses", and go deep..beyond the sleep state and the subconscious. The tendancy is to fall asleep until focus is mastered. You should be in a quiet, comfortable place...the upanishads recommend a dry cave with smooth floors...but I'll pass on that. Just remember...if you are thinking about it you are not doing it...does not involve thought...the internal dialouge.
I kind of see it like this: the biological machinery that we have grown and evolved into is a device or vehicle for interacting whith the larger material world and only the devine spark...that is aether/brahman energy can proceed into the illumination...not the ego..our sense of self... which is of the material world. Our connection to brahman is at the level of the very small...very fine.
Yes...the golden disc is a signpost....also bright flashes of light, maybe something that looks like snow falling.... or lightning. You might even see something that looks like a hubble pic of a galaxy! Right in your face. There is a sense of a very small point and infinity at the same time...near and yet far...and limitless energy.
What about the ego...at that point the quality of the ego...the nature of our sense of self becomes apparent...and to proceed into the light the ego must...be left behind. The are potential dangers. This energy can be a strain on a body not prepared and a mind that does not handle the energy in a balanced way. Ida pingala...sushumna shakti.
My own personal take is that it is a direct experience of the aether...which is also known as brahman...that from which all else springs.
Do you think that it is possible that the ancients, during samadhi, could have a direct experience of the nature of the universe? Would that provide them with a pure insight into the workings of nature? Direct knowledge...gnosis??? Do you think that would have an influence on their "technology"? I surely do.
Krishnamurti knew.
And why is this so rare today? It is time for this connection to be reestablished. The universe is calling.

Dont worry mikado...they were probably just looking for lasagna recipes.
