Dangling Prize Mind

A mind distracted by dangling prizes can’t quiet itself regardless of what’s used as a distraction. Dangling prizes reinforce the distractions because it blocks out the awareness they are there…

If a distracted dangling prize mind is in control and running your life, it doesn’t matter much what’s going on, it’s going to be difficult to be aware they are there. It’s such a dangling prize world because most people think their answers are outside them when the answers are within. What the dangling prizes actually are and how they’re created is by not being aware that they’re not needed. With a mind that’s conditioned to go after dangling prizes, you have to constantly look for them, hence the distractions. This is how Conditioned Mind dangling prize distractions are formed and how they block awareness of your inner presence. It’s distractions created because if you understood them, the need to look for them would be non existent and so would the dangling prize distractions.

The ability to understand the dangling prize mind lies in being aware they’re there, but it’s not something that’s going to happen on its own. It’s a beautiful thing the awareness of the worlds dangling prizes are in your hands and that it’s totally up to each individual how much awareness there is in your life. A little quiet equates to a little awareness so it’s up to each individual to do what’s necessary to become more aware of the dangling prize mind distractions. As you become more aware of being in the present moment the dangling prize distractions lessen and what remains is inner presence. If you’re waiting for anything else, you’ll be waiting a very long time as it won’t happen while your dangling prize mind distractions are in control…

Peaceful Awareness

Don’t allow anyone to take you from your peace. Let them think they’ve won, their satisfaction will be short lived before needing to win again; a solid foundation of peaceful awareness will last a lifetime…

We as humans are all created equal. It’s not that some have weaker minds than others, but some are more aware of themselves and this makes it seem that some have strengths that others don’t possess. The more unaware one is of themselves, the more you will be dragged around by the occurrences that happen in life; peaceful awareness is what one awakens to. It’s not an awakening to the great secrets of the Universe, but more so what pulls you from peaceful awareness. I would say in my own case one area where I’ve become more aware is in not allowing other people’s actions to pull me from my place of peace. At times my initial reaction is to get annoyed, but it’s usually realized very quickly that most people know not what they do so to allow their actions to control me is on me. Because all humans come into the world basically the same (unconditioned) it’s the level of conditioning that makes one appear weak or strong, but one is just more aware of their conditioning than another person.

Let the other person think they’ve won, that they’ve gotten the better of you. Except to the ego it means nothing; this is how unconscious energy is squashed. This doesn’t change the other person, but it does change you. It stops all the stories associated with the situation which festers as unconsciousness; I’m going to say this to them, or they are wrong, or don’t they know who I am, this is all the nonsense of the Conditioned Mind (ego) and nothing good comes from this energy. So as I said, let the other person think they’ve won, but you will know in your heart what the truth is because of remaining in your place of peace and not giving in to the Conditioned Mind nonsense. After all one can only be taken from their place of peace when it’s allowed and it only occurs when the ego is in control…
