The more locked in on a particular view the mind is, the more problems it seems one has. If there isn’t free flowing unrestricted energy, almost everything is a problem in some way. I’ve seen this in myself and in others and it’s all because of a limited view (my way) caused by a locked in mind. I put my way in parentheses because if that’s the only view that’s being allowed, you can see how limited minded that makes you. A limited mind leads to a particular view and with one view there’s no space for the mind to expand. When you get locked in only seeing things one way you get limited to that way. Imagine going through life like this, it would mean the only way you would be content is if everything that happened was in line with your view, and we all know that’s not going to happen, not all the time anyway. So you better do whatever it takes to open your mind or you will pay dearly and so will those around you.
Close your fist as tight as you can and notice how there’s no space, that’s how a limited mind is, there’s no room for anything else. Keep it closed as tight as you can, now notice how it’s getting tired and you hand is starting to hurt, this is the energy you’re living with everyday, only it’s the mind and not the fist. It’s no wonder there’s no expansion, there’s barely enough space for mundane living. Now open your hand and see how it instantly relieves the limit. Open your mind in the same way and it will do the same thing. Give yourself the gift of an open mind and it will be the gift that keeps on giving because your view of life will keep on expanding…
