It's unfortunate, but most people live a life consumed by lies more than truth. They believe they're living by truth, but if further investigated this fallacy can be seen. On the outside the lies seem like truth, this is what keeps a person locked into them. But this is only because the Conditioned Mind makes this up. The truth makes you look at yourself; all sorts of things arise when this happens. Without this understanding truth will be avoided as if it was a plague. Becoming aware of the lies so truth can be revealed is essential in understanding yourself. Sit with the expectation that you will sit in stillness and watch how little stillness there is. Just sit and be with whatever’s there, that's where truth is. When the mind isn't looking for anything, truth arises.
The void of awareness causes the mind to create lies. Seeing this void is when the mind settles. This doesn't mean you don't make changes, but when changes aren’t needed that’s when the mind settles. This is why I don't share about positive versus negative, because if it's negative and you want something positive, it's no different than if you’re positive and you don't want anything negative. An agitated mind is a mind void of awar and needs things to be a certain way whether it's positive or negative. The void of awareness is the lie. Truth arises when nothing needs to be different. Your mind will settle when life is accepted as it is, this is when the void of awareness disappears…
