Made Up Purpose

Only the Conditioned Mind needs to make up a purpose for life. In the space of stillness everything just is and it’s clear that the purpose of life is to live with whatever’s there…

When this part of my life began it was with one thing in mind and that was to find a way to have peace in my life. It has pretty much remained this way, but it seems to be naturally going to a deeper level of doing what’s best for others. A made up purpose becomes a real life prison. For this reason I carefully watch how the mind, at least mine, wants to make up a purpose for life. These purposes are plentiful, but they’re all made up; when the mind settles this will be seen. This is what’s happening to me now, I care more for others than I do for myself, but not in the way where I’m making up a purpose to save them. I just go with what’s there.

What I mean by it’s just what’s there is, I don’t think about what I do, it‘s just a part of me. It’s just like the first forty nine years of my life were lived to satisfy my I Self without much thought of anything else. This was done because that’s what was there. You will do what you do because of what’s in place and until this is realized, a true purpose will never be understood because a made up one will always be needed. That’s just how the Conditioned Mind operates. When the mind quiets no labels need be applied to life, only the Conditioned Mind needs to apply labels and make up a purpose. In the space of stillness everything just is and it becomes clear in this space that the purpose of life is to just live with whatever’s there; without the need to make up a purpose…
