The only way to get a different perspective is to have something in place that will allow it to be different. This is where quietness comes in because without it there won’t be awareness there’s another perspective…
Watching television is not my favorite way to past time, but the other night I watched a football game. When it was over I began looking for something else to watch. Twenty seconds on one channel, ten seconds on another, five on another, than another and another, you get the picture. It’s amazing how we get locked in on something when it comes to our perspective. We’re so reluctant to have a different perspective even though we’re going round and round in circles.
Think of something you get fixated on and see how hard it is get a different perspective when it gets you in its grip. Unless there’s total awareness of this, a different perspective will be just about impossible to be seen. The only way to get a different perspective is to have something in place that will allow it to be different. This is where quietness comes in because without it there won’t be awareness of a different perspective. It may be a repeated perspective disguised with many different labels, but it’s still an old one. Watch the subtleness of this and in time you’ll see the perspective for what it is and how it likes to default to what’s familiar. The issue is you can get so comfortable with a perspective that it’s not realized there are others. This realization will only occur if you have something in place that allows a different perspective to be seen as beneficial…
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.
