Made Up View

Everything in life passes and that’s a fact, a made up view is what makes everything permanent. Only when the mind is settled will the made up view be seen for what it is, and only then will it fall away…

Holding onto a made up view even when there’s evidence it’s false is the greatest of all delusions. Basically delusions occur as made up views, believing what’s seen, the mental reactions to what’s seen, and holding onto what’s seen even though it’s proven not to be true. These first two made up views are the ones that occur the most, many people learn from these to a large degree. The third made up view is where delusion becomes deeply embedded in the subconscious. It grabs hold of you and makes you do all kinds of nonsense. There are many ways made up views manifest, just look at all the things that are reached for. The delusion here is things will bring satisfaction, but as soon as it’s grabbed it’s gone so the next thing made up view arises; this is delusion at its finest.

To me this is how a made up view operates. You think someone is following you, that’s the beginning; it starts with a delusional thought. Now the mind takes over and the mental reaction view occurs, or as I like to say, the nonsense begins. If the person thought to be following you passes you, the made up view will simply fall way, but if you’re in the grip of this type of view, you‘ll think the person passing you is just part of the plan. The made up view will always have to run its course before subsiding. No matter what it is in life, it will pass away, that’s a fact, but a made up view makes everything permanent so it can remain in control. Only when the mind settles will you see the made up view for what it is, and only when this is seen will it fall away…
