Trapped in Thought

When there’s a need to reach for something because of a mind agitation you’re trapped in thought. Until this is seen you will remain trapped in the thought that peace is in the next thing reached for…

You will never find the peace you’re seeking if you’re trapped in the thought of finding peace. Peace is something that’s already within everyone, but because of the way the mind becomes conditioned you get trapped in the thought that peace is something outside of you. Unfortunately this makes the very thing you’re seeking (peace) impossible to grasp. This being trapped is the reason one is constantly reaching for something from the outside and until this is seen you will remain trapped in the thought that peace is in the next thing reached for. Alcohol, gambling, drugs, sex, social status, programs, therapy, self help books, and on and on, this reaching is proof you’re trapped. This can’t be stress enough as this being trapped in thought has to be seen if you’re to experience true peace in your life.

It’s impossible to think your way to peace, but what does have to happen to experience peace is there has to be an innerstanding of why you’re not at peace; that there isn’t peace is only because of the inability to just be. When the need to reach for something arises being trapped in thought begins. This is a vicious cycle that’s very difficult to break free from. Peace isn’t something attained or achieved so it’s in doing less that peace arises. Too many people get lost (trapped) in trying to find peace, but since it’s something that’s already within you, finding it needs to be discarded so you can see. This is not easy to see, but it’s why I write. Understand though, I don’t write to help anyone find peace, I write so being trapped in thought can be seen for what it is; the cause of why you are not at peace…
