Inward Peace/Outward Misery

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…

Labeled Thinking

Labeled thinking keeps you attached to a world where there’s very little freedom because there’s very little room for truth. If you want freedom labeled thinking will have to stop…

The more your thinking labels something, the more you attach to those labels. It’s difficult to experience the openness of something if you’re attached to how you think it is. To remain open one needs to limit their labeled thinking. This is essential if there’s to be alignment with the Universe and be free from the attachment of labeled thinking. Being attached to labels holds you captive and will need to be let go of if there’s to be freedom; this is very subtle. Even the labeling whether you agree with this post or not will keep you in captivity. This post can resonate with you without a label, but labels seem to make the world go round. That doesn’t mean it’s a good thing, but that’s just another label.

I lived a labeled thinking existence for most of my life, this caused much conflict within myself. If you’re really honest with yourself you’ll see that every disagreement you ever had with someone was caused by being attached to a label. I’m not saying you shouldn’t stand up for truth, but truly knowing about something and thinking about it are totally different.

There is a place of non labeling. If this isn’t understood you’ll never be free, and you’ll remain in an existence of your labeled thinking. When you can just be with life as it unfolds and not label it as this or that, you’ll be on the verge of truly experiencing life, label free. When you’re not thinking of applying a label to everything, there’s freedom to be with life as it is without the need of a label that keeps you captive to it…
