Created Tension

The inner tension that keeps you from your peace has nothing to do with life. The tension is a creation of your own mind that makes you believe you’re not at peace…

There are practical ways to minimize the inner tension that causes one to sabotage their own existence, but it has to be understood that the mind creating the tension can’t quiet itself. You’ll have to find out why your own mind is telling you tension is needed to cope with life; a life that is controlled by the conditioning to create inner tension. Your own mind creates all the inner tension you have by choosing to attach to thoughts that give the tension energy; this unconscious conditioning is why tension arises. The Conditioned Mind creates this as you do things that are destructive to your own well being. Why this tension mind set is developed I’m not sure, but I do know it can be described only as insane because your own mind does this.

I know now it was my own mind that created tension which arose from within myself. Because of the shift that occurred some years ago there‘s now awareness so inner tension doesn’t have to be created anymore. I sit for the sole purpose to develop discipline which allows the mind to settle. If there isn’t discipline, your conditioning won’t be understood nor will the reason why tension arises. This will lead you to being led around like a puppet on a string. Life does nothing to you, it’s your own mind that does this. Living in a place of tension as opposed to a place of peace will never be different until the conditioning that makes it so is different. All I ever wanted was to be at peace, but it was always elusive because I wasn’t aware it was my own mind that created the inner tension that made peace elusive…

Inner Turmoil

All turmoil arises from within yourself; it’s from your own internal mind. Without discipline, the mind will never settle nor will the inner turmoil of needing to reach for something externally…

The world is in a state of turmoil, but not with each other as you may think, it’s with ourselves. The lack of understanding of your own mind is the cause of all inner turmoil, and most people haven’t a clue this is the cause of their internal turmoil. We lash out at people, have road rage, try to change people, constantly seek to alter the way that we feel because we were never taught how to just be with life as it is; be with who we are as we are. There would never be a need to have anything or anyone different if you had the ability to just be with life. If you don’t have a certain contentment with the way things are, what makes you think that if things were different there would be contentment; you would still have inner turmoil that makes you reach for things externally.

There’s external reaching because you want to alter how you feel. My mind was always in a state of turmoil, and because there wasn’t an understanding of the Conditioned Mind, my turmoil wasn’t understood. It didn’t matter what happened, by not having the ability to just be, the mind becomes disturbed and inner turmoil arises. Nothing causes turmoil unless it’s allowed. If something bothers you and it can be changed by all means change it, but it needs to be looked at why there’s turmoil to begin with. Even if the thing is changed, without an understanding of your own mind, you will just move onto the next thing which will cause a state of inner turmoil to arise once again…
