Addictive Reaching

Don’t let addictive reaching keep you in an unconscious state. All addictive reaching (attachment) has consequences regardless of what’s reached for…

If you’re always addictively reaching it’s because you don’t think what you have is enough. If you don’t think you have enough, there will always be something addictively reached for. Reaching isn’t something that’s inherently a bad thing, why one reaches addictively is where issues arise; this is because one thinks something is missing. What is addictively reached for only matters to the degree in how the thing affects your life. The addiction to drink alcohol in access has consequences much different than the addiction to go to a program to stop using it. Make no mistake though, the addictions core is the same and that’s what needs to be examined. Don’t let the different consequences of addictive reaching lull you into unconsciousness because all reaching leads to bondage in one form or another.

You might say that’s not true, reaching to better yourself is a good thing, but that would mean you need things to be different to accept yourself. Accepting life exactly in the present is the only place the peace of not needing to addictively have things different is experienced. I’m not saying don’t better yourself, but if it’s at the expense of your peace of mind, where’s the benefit. I say go for the gold, just understand even if it’s attained you will find it’s not providing the benefits you thought it would; shortly afterwards more gold will be addictively reached for. Investigate this and see how addictive reaching arises from desire, and desire causes bondage (attachment) which causes suffering. Break free from the addictive reaching of desiring things different and you will inevitably stop suffering…

Truly Living Life

 

Universal Heart Energy

To go beyond Conditioned Thinking one must go beyond the noise in the head. You cannot live from the heart when the noise in the head is in control…

Be of stillness and you will be of your heart. Living from the heart is not only real, it’s also the only place a person will ever find true peace. The mind will have to settle enough to a point where you can experience the difference between living from the head and living from the heart. Both exist, but we are conditioned to live from our head. We make our thoughts our entire world. They form our belief system and because they are strictly from the head, our thoughts become the base of our existence. This is our dilemma; we have been programmed to believe that we have to think and we are our thoughts; this is what controls most people. This type of living is all in the head. The heart gets locked out with the head as the base of our existence.

When you can get beyond this noise in your head you will start to experience what it means to live from your heart, but this isn’t a thought, it’s purely a place of stillness. The experience of living from the heart can’t really be explained; it’s an experience. It’s like trying to define God or Love, any word used doesn’t really do it justice. It gets watered down trying to use words to describe it. Find your place of stillness and you will find your heart. It is there, but you have to be completely committed to it if you are to experience it. A little stillness will not do. Only committed stillness will allow for the heart to overcome the head. Practice, practice, practice and one day your heart will open to a world that goes beyond anything the mind can conjure up. In stillness all of life arises, and all of life arises from the heart, but it’s not of our heart that this occurs, it’s the heart of the Universe. We are just a manifestation of the Universal Heart and it will only be in stillness that we will understand this from your own heart and experience living life from here…

Obsessive Mind

Although the pleasures of the world take on many forms, it’s the obsessive mind that makes one seek them. This obsession can only be quieted in stillness because when the mind is still no obsession exist…

The obsession aspect of the Conditioned Mind is how it’s almost always in pleasure seeking mode. Even when we get down on ourselves, it’s a perverse form of pleasure. The mind wants to obsessively keep all the pleasure thoughts even if this causes its own destruction; it spends most of its time doing this. Whether it’s weaving in and out of traffic, only to catch a red light and have all the cars that you just passed pull up to the same light, or doing something and asking yourself why you did it, the reason for the doing is strictly to satisfy some obsessive form of pleasure. That your own mind questions why you do what you do is how diabolical it is, but understand it’s only this way because of how the mind has been obsessively conditioned.

The obsessive pleasure seeking mode is not one which is in our best interest, but the Conditioned Mind doesn’t really care about that; control is all it cares about. It makes you think seeking pleasure is a necessity, but when the mind starts to settle, it loses its grip on you. True pleasure is in stillness not in things; the pleasure of stillness is not the same pleasure that the world offers. The pleasure of the world is based in obsessive lies, the pleasure of stillness is based in truth. There are many pointers that speak of quieting an obsessive mind that only stillness can satisfy. This obsession is the self seeking pleasure of the world. This is the obsession the world creates; it is never truly satisfied. It’s only in stillness that the obsessive mind is satisfied. Not because it’s given something, but because in stillness an obsession never materializes so there is no obsessive mind that needs to be satisfied…
