Why did we fall?
What were the psychological factors for which we fell?
There are profound and specific answers to these questions. They must be intimately discovered within us. There is no vaguity and generality about them.
These answers hold the most profound revelations about our psychology.
The understanding of our own fall in the distant or not so distant past - comes to us in degrees.
In the beginning we are not ready to comprehend why, we only can suffer the consequences without knowing.
In the beginning when we contemplate why we fell, there is only a suspicion.
This suspicion later becomes a clear knowing that transforms into deeper discovery that is verified by the way we have lived our life so far.
These verifications serve to create comprehension within us.
With some comprehension we can start to understand why we fell, and why we are the way we are and what it is, that we have to struggle against and definitely undo.
Our fall resounds and repeats through time - we can not escape it. IT comes to us when we are ready to face it.
Even though we don't know our fall, we constantly relive many elements of the scenario or scenarios of our fall.
The circumstances of our fall repeat many times over and over in smaller scales through our life and lives. As if to educate us and prepare us for the moment in the future where we are to face it once again.
The fall leaves a very strong mark in our psychology. It is even said to create a particular personality and a psychology.
The origin of the the most powerful egoic factors in our psychology comes from the fall.
The general pattern of the fall is pride anger and lust and many further repetitions of the above triad in in different combinations.
The most powerful egos in human beings are: pride, anger and lust, which all come from the direct result of the action of the fall.
To fall requires pride and anger to prepare for it, lust to actually fall and then pride and anger to resent ourselves and the authority that threw us into suffering after the fall.
Once fallen with pride, anger and lust developed comes cycles of these three factors causing us to roll further in the mud of falling, until we hit a stop, whether that stop be rock bottom or something where our Inner Being says enough!
A fallen bodhisattwa has not to worry about acquiring powers because they have already been developed are within the Being.
The fallen bodhisattwa has to heal the parts of the Being that have been affected by the fall through the psychological death and the awakening of the consciousness.
The power and cause of the rebellion to fall is mostly in the P.P.P.
The main thing any fallen bodhisattwa has to encounter and fix within themselves is the cause of their fall and the results.
