ok, theory is: something happens bodymind registers body mind alters its organisation alteration is felt (depending on quality of interoceptive access) you can pry into the sense of that alteration to figure out what it is what was registered you can go from that to knowledge

Whew, this is almost 1:1 like the first 5 of the 12 links of dependent origination: ignorance (of current state) occurrence (smth happens) consciousness (registers) mind-body response (alters) sensory response (felt) Wherever you stop you can trace it back to eliminate step 1

Enlightenment in this scheme would be permanently uprooting step 1, ignorance, so impulsive occurrences are known clearly immediately on arising and don't set off the rest of the chain

The 12 steps are: ignorance impulse-occurrence consciousness (of step 2) mind-body response sense-seeking sense-contact feeling (good, bad, indifferent) craving clinging identifying-with birth (into identity) suffering and death

I've looked online for easy intro to these but they don't really exist. Would you do a thread? pretty please?

Rob Burbea’s work remains one of the more accessible and practical explorations of the twelve links I know a chap trying to write an intro from a Mahamudra perspective so people can speedrun the theory and get a grasp on why that might matter to someone not practicing that way
