Although things appear to be a certain way it’s not always as it seems. It’s difficult to see beyond your own mind when repetitive reactions are brought into play. So much of what the mind holds onto is repetitive and is put in storage to be used at particular times; this is how most lives are lived. It’s as though we already have in place the way things are going to be handled; most reactions are formed in this way.
Advertisement is a billion dollar industry that keeps you in bondage. Politicians have people write speeches using certain words which they know are going to sway people in certain ways. Supermarkets know exactly where to place products. It’s all based on putting things in a certain place so repetitive reactive energy is triggered.
This goes on constantly because the Conditioned Mind loves repetition. If you had no previous conditioning none of the above methods would work, but this is not the case. One of the keys to not being controlled by repetitive reactions is to a develop some way to anchor yourself in the present moment as much as you can. The more you’re in the present moment, the more you’re with what life actually offers. When this occurs there’s peace because the repetitive reactions of the Conditioned Mind are no longer making it appear that things are different than what they are…
