Vism., Ajahn Brahm, teenagers dating, redefinition of jhāna analogy

 

Here's an analogy of the difference between Buddhism during the Buddha's time, and Buddhism 1000 years later circa Vism, and 2500 years circa Ajahn Brahm.

Vism. and Ajahn Brahm redefinition of jhāna, is like two young hormonally charged teenagers going out on a date.

The girl would be like the Buddha using consistent dictionary definition of what "yes" and "no" means.

The boy would have his own dictionary definition of "yes" and "no" that conveniently agrees with what he wants.
