Self Investigation

Investigating and learning from your practice allows for one who was lost to now be found, and one who was blind to now see. But only because of investigating what allows this…

If there’s not some kind of an investigation process in place for your practice, it will be difficult to proceed in a direction where there will be any expansion in your life. The first thing to investigate is if you even have a practice in place that’s practical and beneficial. I don’t mean a practice of belonging to certain groups, although there’s nothing wrong with that, but if it’s in place to just keep you busy, it’s not really a beneficial practice. Although it is a practice, investigating how it’s working to quiet the mind or how it keeps the mind agitations in place is what there needs to be awareness of to allow for the continuous expansion of life’s process. I’m sharing this because this is what has allowed me to be as I am today. There’s no magic to this, a beneficial practice has to be in place if one is to experience beneficial results, this is as simple as one plus one equals two.

Investigate your behavior, reactions, attachments, annoyances, and whatnot and see what is the driving force behind them. This driving force may be the block to expanding beyond the nonsense of the Conditioned Mind. Without investigating that allows this to be seen, you might as well not practice at all because it’s just a waste of time and energy. Either do what’s beneficial or don’t anything. One can only be free by being free and only a practice that puts you in harmony with life allows harmony with life. I practiced wrongly for many years and it produced results that weren’t beneficial. But I’ve since investigated and learned from this and because of this, where I was once lost I’m now found. And where I was blind I now see, but only because of investigating if what I practice allows this…
