As long as there is seeking there will always be seeking and you’ll remain on the hamster wheel path, exerting all kinds of energy, but not really getting anywhere…
What keeps a person stuck on the hamster wheel path of seeking is trying to manufacture peace, love, kindness, mindfulness, spirituality, and so on instead of aligning yourself with the present moment which allows these attributes to arise naturally. This is what keeps the hamster wheel energy in place. The energy of seeking is circular (like a hamster wheel) so it’s never going to produce anything that’s going to free you from the hamster wheel energy. You may bounce to a seemingly different energy because it’s given a different label, but as long as you think you have to do something to manufacture a certain desired result, hamster wheel energy will continue regardless of what it’s called, and so you will remain on the path to no where.
This hamster wheel energy of seeking makes a person use an array of things, from sweets, drugs, alcohol, gambling, tv, success, sex, programs, another book, retreats, a path, meditation, and many other things. What these all have in common is they keep you attached to the hamster wheel energy of seeking which is a byproduct of the Conditioned Mind. A true transformation of the spirit cannot be manufactured because seeking energy is the exact energy that blocks the alignment which allows energy to transform. Only when you detach from the hamster wheel can a transformation or shift occur. As long as there is seeking there will always be seeking and you will remain on the hamster wheel path, exerting all kinds of energy, but not really getting anywhere…
