Addicted to Self

If it wasn’t for the attachment to a self that creates bondage, addiction would be non existent because the desire of a self needing to be satisfied would never occur…

Each day most of our waking hours are spent trying to arrange the day to satisfy self. The only problem with this is most of our day is wasted trying to arrange the day to our liking. This occurs because we have been conditioned to believe there is a self that needs to be satisfied. This conditioning keeps the mind addicted to this self which creates a constant state of needing to be satisfied. And when the mind needs to be satisfied it will use whatever tools it has developed. Not so much to quiet this, but more so to distract from it. The distractions in this case manifest as Conditioned Mind Patterns that are constantly trying to arrange life by using whatever it deems necessary to satisfy this false self.

If it wasn’t for the need to satisfy self, these cravings caused by your own mind wouldn’t exist. This is the cause of the constant rearranging of life and it’s because the self needs to be satisfied. But something would exist without the addiction to this self and that would be peace. This is the peace of just being because the addiction to the self wouldn’t exist. If you don’t think this is true it’s probably because of the addiction to self. This addiction doesn’t allow your mind to settle so you can be aware of the peace that passes all understanding and go beyond the cravings brought on to satisfy self. Until this changes, nothing changes…
