Looking at yourself takes more courage than most people will ever have because the conditioning in place doesn’t allow it. Until there’s compassion for others your conditioning will keep you thinking “It’s all about me”
Everyday I’m more and more amazed at the things people are okay holding onto with the emphasis totally on satisfying themselves. This view is without much consideration for anyone else and it’s strictly from an “all about me” attitude. I know it’s because they know not what they do, but the suffering this causes and how it solidifies the conditioning in place can be truly disheartening. Notice I said can be disheartening because when one is truly awake, there’s the understanding that the way things are is the way things are and wanting them different also solidifies the conditioning in place. I’m writing about this out of compassion, but when you have answers and not many have the willingness to look, it hurts; it’s like having a cure for cancer, but nobody will listen. Without going into specifics the conditioned unconsciousness runs so deep that people will justify doing all kinds of self destructive behavior without blinking an eye. Drugs, alcohol, gambling, porn, rioting, protesting, total defiance for any authority, murder, rape, assault, robbery, and so on; this is only the tip of the Conditioned Mind iceberg. Here is why this is at least from my experience, it’s much easier because of the way one is conditioned to justify self destructive behavior than to look at yourself. Truly looking at yourself takes more courage than most people will ever exhibit, not because they can’t, but because the conditioning in place doesn’t allow it.
I offer to share experience with people to point inward because of something they may be going through and all kinds of excuses are made not to look inward. I get it, but it doesn’t make it any easier to watch people suffering when you know it doesn’t have to be. This means people would rather remain in their suffering than to go beyond it; that’s the part that’s hurts. I don’t say this because I’m a know it all, but to a degree I have been released from the grip of the Conditioned Mind and was provided answers to strictly share my experience with others. And how it’s known you’ve truly broken free from the Conditioned Mind is because your life isn’t about you anymore…
