If you’re stuck in a mind based existence, you're being held captive by a mind based world. This is a prison you will only be released from by going beyond your mind into the space of Now…
You cannot have a problem in your life that isn't created by your own mind. This doesn't mean things that occur are always beneficial, but regardless of what happens it's your mind that makes something a problem, and it comes from within yourself. Lots of things happen throughout the day and each time there's a choice to make it a problem or not. Everyone has this choice, it just takes a certain amount of discipline for this to be seen. What discipline does is it slows down the thought process that runs continuously. This slowing down is the beginning of truth arising; without the slowing the necessary quietness that allows this will not happen.
If the mind is the base of your existence noise will be the base of your decisions. This will not allow you to watch the nonsense of the Conditioned Mind and if this nonsense isn't seen, the mind will never slow down and there won't be any Now space created. When life is mind based (unconsciousness) it’s as though life is a struggle. When the mind slows down you can see how it's the Conditioned Mind that takes everything that happens and makes it either problematic or pleasurable. This revelation will assist in breaking free of the hold your mind has over you and you’ll be able to see that you're not the mind, you're beyond the mind (consciousness). This doesn't mean unpleasant things won't happen, on the contrary life will still happen, you just won't allow yourself to make it a problem. When this occurs and you have no created problems with life the next step in the process of going beyond a mind existence into the space of Now will be realized…
