Truth will make a person look at themselves; all sorts of things are revealed when this happens. Most times though the distraught mind creates a lie to avoid the truth…
It’s unfortunate, but most people live a life consumed by a lie more so than one of truth. They believe they’re living by truth, but upon further investigation this fallacy can be seen. On the outside the lie seems so much better and this is what keeps a person locked into it, but this is only because of one’s conditioning that makes it seem better. The truth will make you look at yourself; all sorts of things occur when this happens. Without this understanding the 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. Try to settle down the distraught mind and watch how little stillness there is. Just try to be with whatever is there, that’s where stillness is. When the mind isn’t looking for anything, stillness arises.
Only a distraught mind needs to create a lie. Only when the lie is seen will the mind settle. This doesn’t mean you don’t make changes, but when changes aren’t necessary the mind is settled. This is why positive versus negative isn’t shared because if there’s negativity and you want positivity, it’s no different than if you are positive and you don’t want anything negative. A distraught mind is a mind that needs things to be its way whether it’s positive or negative; this is the distraught lie. The truth is nothing needs to be different; the distraught mind will settle when life is accepted as it is…
The more we grasp for answers outside ourselves the more in the grasp of fear we are. When we look outside, its only because we are fearful of what we might find inside.
