A Reason Why

Nothing is done or held onto without a reason why and if the reason why isn’t noticed, you will unconsciously succumb to blind consequences as if you were a puppet on a string…

When some feeling or emotion arises there’s always a reason why. Learn to see the reason why your emotions arise and the feelings that go along with it. Whatever arises has a reason why and the reason for the sensation needs to be noticed so you’re not blindly drawn in and controlled by it. Nothing is held onto without a reason why and if it isn’t noticed you will unconsciously succumb to it as if you were a puppet on a string. Why people don’t see how this holds them in captivity is because many of the things that are being held onto are used to make an identity and also the holding is done because your conditioning tells you what you are holding onto is needed. When the reason why of what arises is noticed there arises an awareness of your thinking. When this occurs there’s the possibility it will fall away and in the process your made up stories fall away.

Why it’s so difficult to see this is because what’s being held onto is thought to be bringing you pleasure of some kind, and it may be in some way, but it’s not true pleasure because no object has the capability of providing true pleasure; one is easily tricked by this. Regardless of what it is if you to think you need something to feel good (pleasure) the object becomes your prison. So if the reason why something arises isn’t noticed your conditioning becomes your puppet master and is held onto because when it’s time to do something you will have to do it because the conditioning in place is in control…
