No view is wrong, but if you only have one it limits your view of life and in the process it doesn’t allow any other results except those from that one view…
Having different views is what makes life different, but it doesn’t make what happens in life different. It only makes the view of what happens different. If you’re locked into a certain view this only allows one view of the way things are. To me the more that view is based in the intellect the harder it will be for there to be a shift to see things from another view. Not that there’s anything inherently wrong with the intellect, it just doesn’t allow for much openness. When one sees things from only one view it limits their entire life to that one view. Most times this view isn’t even your own, it’s formed from someone else’s opinion, teaching, book, video, or discussion.
To be fixated on one view keeps you entrapped to the results of only that view; think about how limiting this is. No possibility of other views. Always going down the same path. Never allowing anything new. This is so limiting, but with only seeing things through one view how limiting this is will not be seen. Sitting and developing discipline so the grip of the mind lessens can assist in possibly altering a one view mind set. Bit there has to an inkling there’s another way to see things. It’s not that your way is wrong, it’s just that having only one view has limits and in the process it doesn’t allow any other results except those from the one view…
The more we grasp for answers outside ourselves the more in the grasp of fear we are. When we look outside, its only because we are fearful of what we might find inside.
