Hastha Mudra for the path of extinction




නිවීමේ මග පෙන්වාදෙන හස්ත මුද්‍රාව
The Hasta Mudra of Gautama Buddha was one of the greatest creations used to explain the Dhamma and the Dharmatha to this world. It had preciously explained the origin and the existence of the physical world. And also it explains the Dharmathas such as the origin, existence and the extinction of the being.

The complication, complexity, clash, fight occurred due to the usage of The Five is denoted by the attraction (2) (රමණය). Raga (Lust), Dvesha (Anger) and Moha (Delusion) are the three reasons for this situation. The stepping out from this clash, the emancipation of, leaving out the usage of The Five is the relief, Nibbana. This path of extinction can be noticed by the arrangements presented with the directions of the sacred Hastha (3) for each situation. It can be realized well by means of explaining than it is being mentioned.

Isi Ramana Vihara    
The simple meaning of this is mentioned somewhere in this book. Because of that it will not be analyzed here. (4) is for Earning or Gaining (ඉපැයීම), the birth (ඉපදීම), finishing or completing (ඉවරකිරීම).  '' (5) is for the possession by means of The Six Formations(6). Or it is the gain by means of Six Formations. The other side of it is the finishing or annihilation. That is the relief, Nibbana.  'සි(7) represents the attainment in to consciousness and the extinction of the consciousness. ' '(8) is to denote the procession of the attraction. The other side of it is the extinction of the attraction.

' ' (9)  is the attachment with the egoism. The other side of it is the extinction of the egoism. ' ' (10)   is to represent the possession of a body. The other side of it is the extinction of the grip which had for the existence, use of the body. 

As it is taken so hardly, it is being born with the consciousness in The Eight. Or in other words this is the birth for the expansion.  Or this is birth surrounded by The Eight. The other side of it is the extinction of the birth of the consciousness. It will be possessed with The Six from one end. The other side is to depict the nature of the extinction of possession of The Six. Because of this, the attraction possesses for the existence. According to the other side, it is explained that attraction has been annihilated for the purpose of the relief, NIbbana.

The path of Nibbana found in the Pela Dhamma
We may not see the status of the origination of the physical world. But it is dragging continuously towards its end, the cessation. The cessation of the being is occurred by the use of The Five. The mechanism of Thipariwatta consisting the past, present and the future is occurred by the use of The Five.

It is impossible for someone to see another world outside this. No one will see something like that any day anywhere.

The universal life cycle - විශ්වයේ ජීවන චක්‍රය (ප + අ චක්‍රය)
The result of using of + (11)  is + (12). +  is the foundation of a birth, it is the birth. Because of this + is the reason. + is the result. What is denoted by this system of Sutta is the Dharmatha of the Cause and Effect (13). The basic foundation of Buddha Dhamma is being built within this.

As a result of the attraction of + , ' + අං '(14) comes in to being. And also it will turn in to + .  A clash between + is required for the existence of + .  For that it is necessary for ' + අං ' to come in to actions. With the help of the Suttas, the origination and the existence of the physical world and the world of the beings can be presented in this manner. 

The matter (15) (Rupa) presented by the Buddha Dhamma can be seen with the naked eyes only if it is originated from an atom and it is necessary for that to be frozen or clustered. Many different matters are originated in the world. But all of them will not be subjected to our eye. That is because some matters are very subtle. It should be specifically mentioned here that the section between the atom and the emptiness can be seen only by a supermandane Buddha. No anyone else will be possessed with the energy of Paarami (16) to know this section.

In this way, the setting up of a matter occurs by the nature of the formation of impurity which clashes with two + අං which roam rotating and attracting on a correct path. So, in order to understand that it is a nothing but a matter it consists of the quality called Pathavi energy, i.e the hardness or the solidity. This Dhamma should be studied, the Dharmatha should be observed and its reality should be identified.

Thipariwatta and the path for the extinction in Pela Dhamma are indicated by the six Hela Magadhi vocal signs called Aanaapanasathi. By analyzing it, the Dharmatha can be identified. What is mentioned by '(17) is the agitations or excitements ('ආවේග').

' + ' (18) depicts possession of The Nine. Or it is the holding on to The Nine. ' නා ' (19)  is presented for the possession of a body which does not have any defects (20) and has the ability to experience the sensations (වේදනා).

What is meant by the letter 'පා '(21) is the usage (22) (පරිහරණය). '' is to explain the creation of The Future Nine which is made out of the karmic energies experienced in this manner. In this way, the gain (ඉපැයීම) occurs due to the taking of Raga (lust), Dvesha (Anger) and Moha (Delusion) by craving which were possessed by these six formations. That is the existence of the Samsara. The Thipariwatta depicted by this can be explained as follows.

According to this, it comes with  '', possesses The Nine, experiences The Five and '' is the next journey to the next life (භව - Bava) and this is the Thipariwatta or the journey of Samsara. The Nibbana or the path for Nibbana explained by this is as follows.

Comes with '' ('' යන්නෙන් අවුත්)
Possesses The Nine (නවයක් අත් කරගෙන)
Experiences The Five (පහක් අත්විඳිමින්)
Identifies The Five which creates The Six (පහ හයක් කිරීම හඳුනාගෙන)
Eliminates the process of The Five which creates The Six (පහ හයක් වන අයුරු ඉවර කිරීම)
This is the extinction, the Nibbana (නිවීම හෙවත් නිවනයි).

The sensational end of the matter which was possessed with an atom comes to an end by a tidal wave(23). When this scenario is seen and experienced and when mind is focused on the contemplation of Anichcha, Dhukka and Anattha one can step on to the path of extinction. (The knowledge required for this cannot be given by the form of writing. It has to be practically discussed from time to time).
