Society's Normal

What is considered normal by society entraps most people to the idea of what others think normal is. Unless you go beyond this there will be acceptance of someone else’s idea as what normal is…

Stepping outside of what is considered normal by society as far as thinking goes is a must if one is to go beyond the trap of what’s considered normal. You may ask why would a person want to go beyond what’s considered normal by society, but here’s why. The so called norm is based in form and to be attached to form causes suffering. It’s as simple as that, society’s normal attaches to the senses (form). Life will still occur it just won’t be experienced as fully as it can be. There will still be experiences simply because you’re alive, but they will be dictated by form and there’ll be much nonsense associated with them. Society’s normal entraps you to what others think and unless you can see this to go beyond it, there will be acceptance of someone else’s idea as your normal. It’s an easy trap because the bait is so enticing.

This plays right into the reward system of what society considers normal. Who does anything that doesn’t have a reward associated with it? This can be applied to just about anybody and anything. When was the last time you purposely did something that you knew was going to be unpleasant with no reward attached to it. This is pivotal in understanding the process of the Conditioned Mind because until you can just be with whatever arises without judging it or associating it with pleasure, society’s normal syndrome will be what dictates the life you’re living and it will probably be someone else’s idea of what is considered normal…
