Undisciplined Mind

When there’s a need to reach for something it’s because of an undisciplined mind. Until this is seen you will remain undisciplined as you seek to quiet the mind with the next thing reached for…

You will never find the peace you’re seeking with an undisciplined mind because the mind being undisciplined is why you’re not at peace. Peace is something that’s already within everyone, but because of the way our minds are undisciplined, it makes one think peace is something on the outside. Unfortunately an undisciplined mind makes the very thing you’re seeking impossible to grasp. An undisciplined mind is the reason you constantly reach for something from the outside. Until this is seen you’ll remain thinking peace is in the next thing reached for. Alcohol, gambling, drugs, sex, religion, social status, programs, therapy, self help books, politics, and on and on, this reaching is proof that the mind is undisciplined. I can’t stress this enough as the undisciplined mind has to be seen if you‘re to experience true peace in your life.

What has to happen is there has to be an understanding of the undisciplined minds inability to just be. When the need to reach for something arises the undisciplined mind takes control. This undisciplined mind creates a vicious cycle that’s very difficult to break. Disciplining the mind and being at peace isn’t something attained or achieved; by doing less (detachment) peace is experienced. Too many people get lost in the undisciplined mind trying to find peace through attachment. Since it’s something that’s already within you, the undisciplined mind creates an agitation; it becomes about finding what’s already there. This is not easy to see, but it’s why I share so the undisciplined mind can be seen for what it is; the cause of why you aren’t at peace…

Imagined Feelings

Feelings that aren’t based in facts are just a figment of the imagination. Stick with the facts and stay connected to life, or not and live a disconnected state of existence…

There are times that it seems there’s more of a connection with life than at other times, but it isn’t life that changes, life just is; it’s something in us that causes our disconnect. This is the same when we feel disconnected with people, it’s always something within ourselves that causes the disconnect. Even if there’s interactions with the most evil person alive, when you’re connected with life, you’ll have compassion for them because you’ll understand the prison they’re in. When a disconnect does occur, compassion is non existent and feelings turn to whatever your conditioning calls for. The more conditioning there is the more there’s a feeling of being disconnected, and what you’re disconnected from is Love.

No matter the circumstances, we only internalize our feelings and allow them to control our emotions when we come from a place to self-serve. The more the minds default setting is to self-serve, the more disconnected one feels from Love. Our connection to life is related to living in the present moment and how we rightly relate ourselves with it. The connection is because in the present moment the mind isn’t allowed to roam around in the past or future so by being present, you’re in full cooperation with what is, which puts you in cooperation with life. When you cooperate with life you’re connected to Love which connects you to life. So live now and live life, or not and live life in the imagined state of feeling disconnected…

Delusional Story

The value of knowing yourself is priceless because it allows the mind to settle instead of needing to make up a delusional story to be something that you’re not…

One of the insights revealed to me is having the awareness of my own presence. What is meant by this is to be aware of who I truly am and not to need a delusional story of who I am. When my book was published I was thinking of ways to get its message to people. Just by the fact that it was written I knew there was a valuable message to share about how my view of life became real instead of delusional. Shortly afterwards I started writing and posting articles on social media sites. One day I was contacted by a site to write articles for them, I thought this was a great way to get my books message some exposure. After about six articles the admin of the site said people were contacting her about my articles, saying they were like teachings and asked if I could make them more inspirational. I thought about it and decided I couldn’t compromise the message revealed to me. I told her I wouldn’t change my style; I didn’t write another article for them.

It was important for me to stand my ground and not be someone other than what was revealed to me; it’s just as important today. The value of knowing who you are is priceless because it allows the mind to settle instead of needing to make up a delusional story. I’m not this loving spiritual head in the clouds person; I am what I am. If there was such a thing as a spiritual labors union, I would be the head of it; I’m a blue collared spiritual person. I understand many things, but my feet are mostly planted in the present moment so if it’s not happening now, it doesn’t really matter all that much to me. I’ve learned early on that a delusional story isn’t needed to be something that I’m not. What this allows is to not have any delusional energy within myself and in the process just be at peace with who I am. Not everyone agrees with what I write, but at the end of the day it’s me who I’m with, and I’m grateful there’s no need for a delusional story to be something that I’m not…

Attachment Restrictions

 Whatever you attach to it becomes your restricting energy. If you don’t stop attaching so there’s some space created that’s needed for you to love, you will suffer the most…

The so called choice to attach to things is the gateway to suffering, but there really isn’t a choice here because of the way the Conditioned Mind is in control. Suffering is inevitable because of the conditioned attaching energy that’s in place. If this is to change, space needs to be created so the attaching energy is replaced by first stillness then by love; there’s no way around this. Attach to whatever the flavor of the day, week, month, or year is, just understand there will always be something to attach to which will cause you to suffer. Today it’s politics, tomorrow it’s a co worker, the job, traffic, weather, relatives, and so on. This will never change until there’s space for love. If you attach to one individual and bemoan them you don’t truly have the space for love in your heart. This is strong language, but it’s true. 

Unconditional love can only be without one iota of attachment. This is a truth the Conditioned Mind doesn’t allow most to see. I can say I have love for all humanity, what I don’t love is humanity’s conditioning, but I do understand it and I choose to not attach to conditioned nonsense. Attachment leads to suffering regardless of who or what is being attached to because it becomes restricting energy. Until this is understood you become the very thing that you show discontent towards. This is a Universal Law; you cannot be separate from the energy that comes from you because it is you. Stop attaching and create space in your heart for love, if you don’t you are the one who will suffer the most by remaining with the restricting energy of what you are attaching to…
