Cessation of Karma.
Ian Gardner
The fundamental law of physics is that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Karma, literally, means action and action is caused by mental activity or, as I call it, menting.
The fundamental law of Karma is that for every ment there is an equal and opposite reaction.
So, every time our mind (moul) generates a ment the opposite is also generated and this continues until we cease to generate ments.
We cease to generate ments when when the mind is finally stilled, when the moul has finally been eliminated, when all attachment is nullified and we have total non-attachment, and all that is left is the Spirit Self - that which was created in the image of the Great Spirit.
This is the cessation of Karma, the cessation of birth and death.
This is Buddhahood, this is Christhood!

Ian, I really enjoyed reading this. The way you've brought together words from different time periods and from different traditions - including yours! - and brought them alive.
”We cease to generate ments when when the mind is finally stilled”
Here, you've brought out a truth in terms of time. Is it possible to describe it also in a way that is beyond time? This is something I'm seeking to do, and it is a challenge. [which, of course, i thoroughly enjoy!]
Meenakshi, when ”… . . the mind is finally stilled” is a state of being without time and space and hence description is not possible; one can only experience it. One could also say that the description lies only in the experience.
NB. I have answered on the assumption that the “it” in your question was in reference to the state created by ” … . the mind is finally stilled” and not with reference to the truth.
Actually, the 'it' / challenge was in reference to how we are talking about a 'time' when the mind is stilled and a time when it is not; when actually the mind is stilled now and is not-stilled now…..
Sorry, Meenakshi, but I do not understand ”when actually the mind is stilled now and is not-stilled now…..”. Can you elaborate?
I was referring to the timeless zone - or rather the all-time-together-zone in which we can feel we are here and there at the same 'time', when we feel stilled and not stilled. When we are with the waves of the ocean and the immense silence of its depths.
At this time, if we can expand into the several layers or levels or dimensions, then we are not aware of time in the traditional sense.
It is not possible to describe this in words, which are in themselves of time and space.
Thanks Meenakshi, I know what you mean when you say, ” … . . It is not possible to describe this in words … .”
