Buddhists speak of Ten spiritual Realms, each representing a different state of mind.
Four of them are related to the evolution of consciousness, while the remaining six are not 'evolved'.
Life: what to do if you feel meaningless
What the human condition needs
It is called Self-defense in Eastern philosophy
According to Buddhist cosmology, there are 10 spiritual realms that become 10 different mental states. This state gives the mind a specific emotion for each of them.
In other words, a predetermined aspect prevails every moment.
Buddhists teach that all ten spiritual realms are not equal. Of these, four are rated superior and six are rated inferior. A state of superiority stems from voluntary search, desire for discovery, and self-improvement.
The four inferior states take into account the reaction to the outside world. These are the states of mind in which existence is influenced by external forces. They do not lead to evolution, but to pain. Let's look at 10 spiritual realms.
Ten profound zones of Zen Buddhism
10 Spiritual Realms
1. Learning
'Hearing the sound' is another name for this.
It compares to the individuals who watch reality, need to find out about it, and are available to finding and understanding reality
But this superior state depends on the outside. People in this state seek truth through their senses or what others tell them.
2. Implementation
This is the second of the ten profound domains
Another name is the 'one who awakens from the cause'.
It compares to a more prominent degree of self-sufficiency. On account of perception, exertion, and contemplation, individuals can be aware of the 'why' of things. At the end of the day, comprehend the law of circumstances and logical results and how it is figured it out
3. Bodhisattva
The word bodhisattva refers to a state of mind that is achieved through compassion and altruism.
People in this state feel a real desire to free others from suffering and lead them to enlightenment. Giving and helping are the source of happiness and peace in this situation.
4. One of the Ten Spiritual Realms: Buddha
It refers to the state of Buddhism's enlightenment, the state of Buddha, at the highest of the ten spiritual realms. It is also the highest class and identifies those who have attained true enlightenment.
Buddha refers to a state of absolute inner peace that cannot be changed by any external situation. It is characterized by wisdom and infinite compassion.
5. Hell
Hell is the most minimal of the ten spiritual realms. It's a mental state that absolutely lacks freedom.
Sometimes, you're completely overwhelmed by the pain that traps you. For some, hatred and destructive feelings bind and choke the person in them.
6. Hunger
Unsatisfied hope dominates the realm of hunger. This is because if you have desire, you lack satisfaction. That is why everyone who is full of desire is inevitably lacking.
'Hunger' in a symbolic sense makes people miserable and makes people act intemperate. If you can creatively change that desire, you have a willingness to be a better person.
7. Animal
'Animality' is the state in which people get immediate and irrational satisfaction. Impulse, neither reason nor mind, dominates this state.
Animals fear the powerful and abuse the weak. In this state, life is not a space to create, but a fight to survive. When animality evolves, it becomes loyalty and generosity.
8. Anger
It is also referred to as the'area of anger,' which is the main characteristic of competition. When you're angry, you're always inclined to compare yourself with others to become a better person.
People in this state are arrogant to the weak and flatter the stronger. People can be conscious when this is the case, but it is only the purpose of achieving selfish goals. When it evolves, it leads to self-esteem. anger
9. One of the Ten Spiritual Realms: Humanity
People in this state have the ability to reason. Therefore, they can distinguish between right and wrong.
They also control their actions. Passion for abstract ideals and vulnerability in the negative are characteristic of this state. From there they have the potential to develop into a state of superiority.
10. Ecstasy
'Heavenly Being' is another name for those in this state. The joy and pleasure of fulfilling your wishes and getting what you want defines this ecstasy state. But this happiness is temporary.
