Livre : et que rien ne te fasse peur

Je suis en train de lire ce livre, l'histoire d'une princesse tibétaine restée 20 ans dans les prisons chinoises. Ça m'est resté en tête toute la nuit dernière, en fait je me demande ce que c'est le sens de tout ça.
Là on a une brave fille, de bonne naissance, pleine de qualités, avec une rare sensibilité (c'est vraiment bien écrit). Au début on se dit " elle est un bon réceptacle pour les enseignements, ça va marcher", et pourtant elle n'apprend jamais ce qui lui serait nécessaire plus tard. Même si son maître est de ceux qui partent en corps d'arc-en-ciel, il ne lui donne pas ce qu'il lui aurait fallu. Plus tard, elle n'est pas capable de tirer parti de son séjour en prison, elle n'a pas les pratiques nécessaires. Elle dit elle-même qu'elle ne s'est jamais débarrassée de la colère. Quant à son séjour dans le noir de 9 mois qu'en a-t-elle fait ? Rien. Et elle a beau prier Guru Rinpoche, que fait-il pour elle ? Rien.
C'est ça le problème de la prière, les bouddhas ne nous voient pas, si on ne sait pas les rejoindre là où ils sont, se rendre visibles, ils ne peuvent rien pour nous. Alors tant que tout va bien, ça va, mais les prisons chinoises, c'est pas avec des petites prières, du bon coeur et de la bonne volonté qu'on en vient à bout. Se dire que la nature de l'esprit est clarté et vacuité et que tout est impermanent, c'est bon quand on est dans un salon de thé et que notre plus grave préoccupation, c'est de savoir si la gosse va à la danse demain. Mais l'existence humaine, c'est rarement comme ça d'un bout à l'autre. Et quand ça n'est pas comme ça, on se retrouve vraiment con, parce qu'on ne sait plus quoi faire. On subit, en priant pour que l'impermanence change rapidement les choses, sauf qu'à l'échelle d'une vie humaine, il y a des misères qui peuvent durer toute la vie. 
Alors on se demande à quoi ça sert toutes ces existences dont les gens ne peuvent pas tirer parti parce que ça leur est impossible. Et ça n'est pas de leur faute. Ils ont une dévotion incroyable pour leurs chefs spirituels, et à quoi ça leur sert ? Moi je ne comprends pas ce que c'est que cette humanité qui ne sait par s'organiser pour se sortir des problèmes. Et quand la fille rencontre le Dalaï-Lama 20 ans plus tard et qu'il lui signifie son respect, elle écrit "Je n'aurai pas souffert pour rien". Ah bon. Comme si ça changeait quelque chose. Cette naïveté c'est beau en un sens, mais ça n'aide pas à sortir du samsara, et c'est bien le problème. Et puis les autres en profitent. Les lamas semblent considérer que tous ces braves gens ne méritent pas les enseignements réellement efficaces qui leur permettraient de faire face à l'adversité, un point c'est tout. Alors les Occidentaux...  
Finalement, la façon dont ils traitent leur propre peuple devrait nous servir de leçon, mais même pas. A quoi ça sert de faire des grands sourire si c'est pour enseigner du vent ? Elle est où la compassion là-dedans ?
Tout à l'heure je regardais le discours du 17è Karmapa invité du TedX. Du vent, rien que du vent. "J'aime ma mère, j'aime ma famille, il faut aimer les gens, vous êtes des gens merveilleux, comme c'est beau...". Zéro contenu. On dirait Macron en plus intelligent, ni à droite ni à gauche on rassemble tout le monde c'est la fête.

Enseignements de Rudi

Fear
We have the capacity in our minds to create that which we are most afraid of; in the same way that we bury some ignorance like a grain of sand inside the shell of an oyster and build around it until we come up with the end product, which in this case is not a pearl.

God
It is finally this consciousness that allows a human being to feel God as the constant energy that is absorbed by all of the chakras, filling him with sweetness and joy. Not feeling happy is only the result of not being in tune with this force and not having the consciousness to contain it. For whatever reason we fail in holding onto energy, we must look to ourselves. We cannot blame anybody or anything. It is only our lack of capacity to hold that which is given.

Revelations

In all teachings, the temptations that appear during the revelation period are those things we identify with, that take away the energy or content from the experience. It is the courage to put the bottom on the void, so that the incoming energy is not lost during any experience, that is required. This enables a person to grow endlessly, by surrendering content as fast as it manifests itself.

Seekers
It is a remarkable event when somebody presents a situation that exposes their real need. It is rare when even half the truth is given. Usually a situation is distorted beyond recognition. It is as if somebody is saying to me that if I can dig out the real situation, maybe they will allow me to help them. When a situation occasionally is presented in all its nakedness, it is only because the person is defenseless at a particular moment. As soon as they have one stitch to put on their back, they again retreat into themselves, distorting what they said and what they think you said. The ability to hear and see is rare in this world. It only exists in somebody who truly wishes to grow. This has not, unfortunately, been the attitude of most seekers. So few succeed in reaching their goal that it is safe to assume that there are few who honestly pursue a spiritual life, and even then, very few teachers who cater to anything that brings the realism that allows for enlightenment.

Spirituality

Spirituality is not about being where you think you should be. It is not about being where you want to be. Spirituality is about being on the highest point of an ascending energy that keeps growing and growing.
As this energy grows, it completely destroys every level of truth as you live it. This does not mean the truth that has been destroyed was not real. It was real for the level on which you existed before. With students, I am not interested in how long they are with me; I am just interested in one thing: whether or not they are strong enough to break up the horizontal level and continue growing. For myself, I do not want to limit myself by what I was. I do not think, "I did all this work to get to here." That is baloney. That is making a drama of your life and trying to build an image for yourself. The point is to keep growing. It is to have the courage to keep growing, even if it pulls apart the structure of your life. Then it is freeing you. There is nothing wrong with pulling apart the structure. What is wrong is to build yourself into a coffin and then stay there and try to justify it. Either you are working to live on a higher level all the time and to have a rebirth all the time, or you are trying to find justification for staying the way you are.
The whole point of what we do is to destroy matter, which is this horizontal plane we sit on: the earth. It is to translate this physical and material matter into spiritual force. This is our work.

Surrender
You sit down. Inside you, what is going on? You want to be right. "I'm a nice guy, how could this person do this to do me? How could someone take advantage of me in the business world," or "How can somebody not love me? Don't they understand what I did?" Inside you, these muscles close up; they are protecting you. They are protecting your ego, protecting the image you have of yourself. You sit down to take your breath, and you find that something has robbed you of your heart. What robbed you of your heart ? The need to be right. These muscles do not want to open. They would rather you were safe and secure behind the wall than outside the wall.
Surrendering is opening all the muscles. This is the real test of your surrender in a situation. Can you breathe ? Does the throat open to receive the energy ? Are you free to receive this energy and open and see what your condition really is ? If you find out you are constricted in your heart, you have a pain in your back, or you can't get the air down, what does it mean? It means you are closed. What closed you? It does not matter what closed you, you do not have to find the rational reason, you just have to open. You sit and work, and you breathe. I do not have that problem anymore, but I used to sit and take that breath six hundred times in one day, sometimes, to begin to feel a little crevice start to open. If you are closed, you are dead. You can't be right if you are closed. Can a closed person know what he or she did or did not do ? So, if you find that you are closed, you have to drop the whole issue of whether the other person is or is not right.
