The ceesations occurs meaning it is when one experience the ceesations of conciousness directly experiencing it not by thinking but by directly experiencing it. This ceesations has been directly experienced that make it possible for me to elaborated it. It has been clearly known as to what Nirodha samapatti is ceesations of conciousness.

Dear Bro. Billy Tan. Is it correct to say this is a demonstration of Selective Thinking? Therefore replacing unwholesome thoughts with wholesome thoughts. Thank you
There are 10 fetters (Saṃyojana) that prevents or obstructs one from nibbana: 1) Personality perspective (Sakkāya-diṭṭhi) 2) Cognitive dissonance, Vacillation (Vicikicchā) 3) Heteronomous morality (Sīlabbata-parāmāsa) 4) Lust for sensual pleasures (Kāma-rāga) 5) Ill-will and Hatred towards pain (Paṭigha - also vyāpāda / byāpāda ) 6) Lust for mental imagery (Rūpa-rāga) 7) Lust for vacuity (Arūpa-rāga) 8) Conceit & Sense of Ego Self (Māna) 9) Restlessness & Agitation (Uddhacca) 10) Insentience, Not knowing (Avijjā). There are 4 stages of ariya attainment: 1) Stream Entrant (Sotāpanna) when first 3 fetters are fully eradicated 2) Once-Returner (Sakadāgāmi) when 4th and 5th fetters greatly reduced 3) Non-Returner (Anāgāmi) when 4th and 5th fetters fully eradicated 4) Breaker of Bonds (Arahat) when last 5 fetters fully eradicated
Sir how do you explain nibeddhika sutta. which says phassa paccaya sanna/vedana/cetna. And also yam vedeti tam sanjanati tam vitaketti. Can we say its sanna of mental object. rather then sanna of pancakhanda.... it seems as if there are two sanna/vedana. the primodial is part of pancakhanda and higher is part of conceptual thinknig... we also have 10 sanna in girimananda sutta, like anicca sanna, anatta sanna etc
Thanks Brother Billy Tan and Bhante Sumitta of Dhamma USA, etc! Wish to see all guides and Bhante explain clearly the Dhamma. Thanks also to Ayya Soma.
