r 4 PRINCIPLES ON THE PATH OF VIPASSANA MEDITATION (ONE OF THE MANY WAYS TO LIBERATION): 1. Mindfulness.. Cultivate and deepen and abide in a skill of being attentive in the now. Have continuity of awareness, instead of gaps. 2. Equanimity. Be accepting of the way whatever makes you feel. Don't fight with feeling, if you fight feeling you fight yourself. 3. Relativity. Don't be too judgemental of yourself. An attempt to be more mindful, have more equanimity and consistency than usual is ok. 4. Consistency. Even if you encounter the blisfull or the demonic, which could happen along the line, just observe mindfully as everything else. Then the purification will continue. Even if fear comes up, the generic phenomenon of fear - the phence - that is arising without any reason, observe the fear. Because you're close to going beyond the limited identity. All along the vipassana path if you apply these 4 principles, you will always have the answer for what to do.
