Origin of Random Memory

Origin of Random Memory

With the help of Srila Yogeshwarananda and Lord Buddha, I did some research into the source of random memories. How do they arise suddenly during meditation even when they are not requested through the intellect or they are not aroused because the psyche views something that is related or that appears to be related?

On the average, memories are fished out of the neck. They come up through the neck and enter the subtle head. There are a few most recent memories however which remain in the subtle head after they are used by the intellect. These are like programs which are opened in a computer but which are behind the one which is being viewed.

Installed programs which are not being used are on the hard drive of the computer. These are invoked when the user clicks on the icon which causes their display. As soon as the intellect requires memory, it sends a message which causes a hunt and arrest energy to descend through the neck, to search the memory storage in the subtle chest.

When the intellect does not request a memory, a related memory might come to it. Such data is based on the recent sensual activities. However some memories which are requested come to the intellect. These may have no correspondence to sensual activity. Especially during meditation practice a yogi may be baffled as to how those memories arise.

When the sense of identity projects itself to the intellect, there is a gap between the two adjuncts. In this gap some of the sense of identity’s interest falls away from it and enters into the kundalini’s influence. This interest energy falls like rain through the sky.

When that interest enters the kundalini’s influence, it causes random memories to be energized. These impressions reach the intellect which illustrate in the mind. This disrupts meditation.

The solution is to make the sense of identity efficiently give its energy to the intellect so that none of its interest falls like rain in the kundalini’s influence.
