Delusional Mind

Understanding the nature of a delusional mind is one of the attributes of waking up. But it’s not the delusion of the world that one wakes up from, it’s the delusion of your own mind…

What is a delusional mind that runs your life? The delusional mind manifests because there’s attachment to your thoughts. The thought that arises about something is inconsequential, it’s the attachment to the thought that forms the delusional mind. To understand the delusional mind one must be aware of its attachments, desires, confusions, and the way the mind works. Without this awareness the puppet on string patterns prevail; certain disciplines turns one inward to see this. If what you’re doing doesn’t turn you inward, you’ll remain trapped to a delusional state of mind. This is why nothing from the outside truly changes a person because anything from the outside is part of the delusional mind. A delusional mind can’t fix itself and as long as it’s reaching for something on the outside, it remains trying to fix itself and thus it remains delusional. Until this truth is seen, things will stay as they are because nothing is being done to make it different.

We can only go beyond the delusional view if there’s awareness of it. What this means is one has to develop mindfulness of what they’re doing as it’s being done so there‘s awareness of what’s being done. If you know what you’re doing as it’s being done, it leaves little room for the delusional mind to arise. Mindfulness is probably the most important discipline to develop as it anchors you in the moment of what’s being done. A delusional mind only occurs when one lives in the story of a past or future. These delusional mind made constructs keeps the delusion active. The present moment can be seen without making it a story even though it passes as quickly as it arises, but the past and future can never truly be seen without a story. Because of this lack of discipline to be present, most people live a delusional mind existence…

Listening Heart

If you seek what you think is needed to open your heart, it will probably remain closed. An awakening is from the Universe, but this will not be known if you’re listening to the Conditioned Mind instead of your heart…

We are all a product of the Universe, we are not a product of ourselves. We didn’t call for our creation nor do we call for the time when it ends. Our existence is a product of the Universe and the heart energy transformed to awaken is from the Universe. This is why we can’t really do anything to transform ourselves. We can only do the necessary practice that allows the heart to open so the Universe can do its thing. This is not our doing, this is a calling from the Universe; we practice because we’re listening to the heart. The reason some practice and some don’t is because the noise in the head doesn’t allow you to listen to your heart. Even though it seems an awakening is from the outside, it can only be heard from within.

Through the Conditioned Mind we become trapped in very self-centered desires that don’t allow a listening heart. Energy always is, it’s just a matter of listening so you can go where you’re directed. We seek because the Universe calls us, but we’ll only see when the veil of the Conditioned Mind is removed, and our energy is guided by the heart. Spirituality is not magical for a select few who think they‘re special, it’s available to anyone who listens to their heart. The heart is always calling, but are you listening? If you think you’re listening, are you hearing the true message or are you making up your own message to fulfill some self-centered desires? It takes much quietness to listen to the heart call, the alternative is to listen and follow your own call which is scary. Why may you ask is it scary, because most people are trapped in fulfilling self-centered desires that block you from listening to your hearts call…

A Delusional Reality

To expose your delusional lies, why they’re being created needs to be revealed. If this understanding doesn’t occur, the delusional lies will remain which in turn makes your life a delusional reality…

The way the base of thoughts are formulated determines if what is seen actually occurs in life or if life becomes a delusional reality of fictitious thoughts. Because of the lack of clarity of truth in most lives, this creates two realities occurring at the same time. One is what’s actually occurring and the other is a delusional reality of what’s occurring. The more unaware you are of this, the more you make up a fictitious story (a delusional reality) of life instead of living a life of what’s actually occurring.

If this is how you’re living, it makes for a very unproductive existence because a delusional reality is in control; when this happens a persons entire reality is delusional. Thoughts are the base of all delusional lies because without the belief of something (thought) it’s impossible for a delusional reality to exist. All delusions start with the lie they’re real, but the delusional reality isn’t what’s actually occurring so two realities are happening at the same time; one is created (the delusion) and one just is. The one you live your life by determines if life is based in what’s actually occurring or if you’re living a delusional life created by the Conditioned Mind. There’s living your given life (what is) or there’s a delusional reality. Life can be a delusional reality created by your thoughts or it can be the reality of what is. There are always two realities to choose from, but to expose the delusional reality, why it’s created needs to be revealed. If this doesn’t occur the delusion remains which in turn makes your life a delusional reality…

Selfish Division

There’s no harmony when selfish energy is running the show. Simply put without harmony we have everyone going in different directions trying to attain a certain selfish status…

Nothing really means all that much in the grand scheme of life when it comes to achieving a certain status in our society. Not that there’s anything wrong with this, but it doesn’t equate to anything except to selfish energy. This energy is what actually makes selfishness what it is; it creates division. When selfish energy is embraced, it creates an I am special aura or a look at me persona, but the truth of the matter is, when it’s time to leave this world nothing is taken with you. I’ve learned one very important lesson in my life and that is my life has nothing to do with me. I say this in the sense of what any life is about. Life itself doesn’t really care what occurs, it’s selfish energy that makes it important by the story it creates of “I”. It attaches to “I” and adds all kinds of things that creates a look at me persona. A celebrity status goes to most people’s head, but it doesn’t really mean anything. Just loving and keeping things in their proper perspective is what gets it done for me, with the “it” being a level of quietness that doesn’t need a selfish story to be.

Anything added to life doesn’t really enhance it in any way. Being with life as it is and not needing it to be of a certain status is so much more beneficial as an energy than putting out selfish energy. So much of selfish energy is reinforced by ”I” and it’s why the world is the way it is. Selfishness can’t exist without a certain energy that feeds it. Without awareness of this, just by the design of idolizing, selfish energy is constantly reinforced. I’m right and you are wrong energy is also the kind of energy that’s in place and it makes for many selfish charged situations. There’s no harmony when selfish energy is running the show. Simply put without harmony we have a world divided trying to attain a certain selfish status…

Energy Output

You can’t be different from your energy output because it comes from within you so there’s no where for you or it to go. Love and you will be love because that’s the energy within…

Simply put, the energy you put out is the energy you will live by; you can’t be different from what is in you. This is a Universal Law that has to occur. It’s no different than pressing down on the gas pedal in your car, the car will go faster; it has to there’s no way around it. Put out the energy of hate and that will be your energy whether you want it to be or not. It will take you over, it’s how energy works. You can’t really show hate to someone and love another. That’s not happening, it can’t because as stated before the more you press down on the gas pedal, the faster the car will go. If you truly want a loving heart, learning to love all beings is a necessity. This simple but profound law isn’t really understood by many people; all one needs to do is look around. The energy you put out is your own energy so it becomes your responding action. 

Nothing from the outside causes any emotion to arise. You may think it does, but that’s only because you don’t understand your own mind and how energy works. It’s really unfortunate because it’s not understood how any energy except love causes your own suffering. Although unloving energy may affect all of humanity to a degree, the effect it has on you is where most of the harm is. You can’t run away from your own energy output because it comes from within you so there’s no where for you hide. This is why acting in unloving ways constantly repeats itself because you can only be the energy that you are. Until there’s awareness of this unloving action will be the focal point of your actions. Love and you will be love or not and that’s the energy you will be because you can’t be different than what you are…

Mind Trigger

When your mind trigger is you need something to provide satisfaction, you’re trapped by this. Until this is understood, you’ll remain trapped in the mind trigger that satisfaction is outside of you…

There will never be satisfaction in your life as long as you’re trapped by the mind trigger that satisfaction is outside of you. Satisfaction is something that’s already within everyone, but because of the way our minds are conditioned, we get trapped by the mind trigger that satisfaction is something to find. Unfortunately this mind trigger pushes the very thing you’re seeking further away. Your needing satisfaction mind trigger is the reason you’re constantly reaching for something outside of you. Until this mind trigger is no more, you’ll remain trapped that satisfaction is in the next thing reached for. This can’t be stressed enough as these trappings have to be seen if you’re to ever experience true satisfaction.

The mind trigger of satisfaction doesn’t satisfy. What has to happen if satisfaction is to truly be experienced is there has to be an understanding of how this mind trigger traps you. The reason why satisfaction is elusive is because of the inability to be aware of this. When the need to reach for something arises, becoming trapped by this mind trigger begins; this is a conditioned cycle that’s very difficult to break. Satisfaction isn’t something that can be manufactured so it’s in doing less that it arises. Many get trapped in trying to find satisfaction, but since it’s already within, the idea associated with finding it needs to be discarded so you can uncover the reason why you’re trapped in the mind trigger that you’re not satisfied…

Silence Awareness

Without awareness of the mind becoming disturbed because of the absence of silence, the Conditioned Mind will create story after story just so it can fill the absence with noise…

One of the most difficult things to learn in life is to understand the absence of silence in spite of their conditioning telling you noise is needed. To not give in to the noisy mind (disturbed) that tells you to reach for this or that, is so difficult because of the lack of awareness of the absence of silence, and the lack of understanding this absence. Even with awareness and the understanding of the absence of silence, it’s still difficult because of all the outer noise and conditioning. Silence is not something many understand. I’m not talking about sitting in meditation or taking a nap, I mean being wide awake without listening to the noise. For forty nine years there was only noise in my life; there was never silence long enough to be aware of a disturbed mind . I like so many was a noise reactor; a slave to my Conditioned Mind.

For some this doesn’t seem like much of an issue because there isn’t any awareness of the noise, but make no mistake noise is noise and one is a slave to it regardless how productive or subtle it may seem. Without awareness of the mind becoming disturbed in the absence of silence, the Conditioned Mind creates story after story just so it can fill this space with noise. You can only do what the conditioning in place dictates so without awareness of a disturbed mind, life is based in noise. Not listening to noise allows for one to truly be an instrument, but this will only occur if you‘re aware of silence so you don’t have to listen to the noise…

False Self Label

The more attached you are to your name (label), the more a false self is created. When this is realized it leads not so much to knowing who you are, but more so to the truth of who you are not…

One day as I was sitting in silence, it was revealed to me that it took nearly forty nine years to develop a false label to a self along with all the tools I thought were needed to make me who I thought I was suppose to be. For the last sixteen years I have be undoing what my Conditioned Mind developed what it thought was the most beneficial way to live. This false label began at birth when my parents named me for the purpose of having a way to identify me. This label was then attached to by a self that was in the beginning stages of creating a false self.

Seventeen years ago the false label lie was exposed for me as it will be for everyone I gather one day; for most though it will remain in place until the time of death. For some death itself will be the time of this exposure of their false label, but for most they’ll never be aware of it. For those who do awaken to the lie of this false label, there’s a freedom that occurs which can only be known in the space of non attachment to this labeled false self. Bondage is in the belief that you are what you think you are, freedom is in the knowing that you are not. The more the lie of this false label is exposed, the more you’ll see the truth that the false self doesn’t really exist. In this truth there’s a knowing not of who you are, but of who you are not, and it’s in the exposure of this that sets you free because you are no longer in the prison of a false label…

Restricted Awareness

Going through life without an understanding of how the mind becomes conditioned, makes existence much more difficult because it restricts your awareness; restricted awareness, restricts understanding…

We discover the cause of all suffering when we’re truly able to see our conditioning for what it is, and understand how it creates feelings and emotions that aren’t real. They feel real because of the attachment to them, but their reality is only relative to our thinking and the association to our identity. When this is discovered and we disassociate with this kind of thinking, we become more aligned with the Creative Intelligence of the Universe which to me is love; love is what releases the restrictions of our awareness.

When one stops believing in the nonsense of thought, it’s learned how to allow love to be the guide. This is when one is able to see their thoughts for what they truly are, disassociate from them and separate the ones that cause suffering and restrict awareness; this is when suffering ceases to exist. This is not some belief, this is factual. I know this because it’s my direct experience. A thought cannot restrict unless it’s given the energy needed to do so. This is what determines if the thought is attached to or not. The more attachment there is, the more it restricts your awareness. In the awareness of this is one’s freedom. It’s your own ignorance that creates suffering. This suffering is caused by going through life without an understanding of how the mind works and how it restricts your awareness, With restricted awareness you have restricted understanding so you’re easily manipulated…

Life Moments

Your center of being is in your heart and what’s in your heart is determined by how life moments are used to either fulfill self satisfying desires or being an instrument of goodness…

When a life moment presents itself to help a person to possibly reduce some of the suffering that a Conditioned Mind produces, there’s an obligation to be a benefit to that person; that person has to take advantage in what’s presented if something is to awaken within them. If nothing happens nothing is lost, but what if something clicks and their view of life changes; their gain is the worlds gain.

Understand though you can not give away what you haven’t got, so get it and give it so this world becomes a better place. As long as people are kept in the dark, darkness rules, but with awareness you can be a light. There is no greater reward than to be an instrument for goodness, a light in a world that has shades pulled down. Those shades are what keeps people in their ignorance (darkness). To watch a person change right before your eyes is amazing.

I was talking to a Doctor the other day about what transpired in my life, I could see it in her eyes that what we talked about made her think. She may or may not pursue looking at what happens as life moments are presented, but regardless the seed was planted. Whether it’s cultivated to grow will be determined by what’s within her. I did my part, and just maybe a little light was shed and the shade of ignorance was lifted just enough to allow a little light in. To be a seed planter of goodness is so rewarding, but you can only give it if it’s in your heart. You will only be of the heart when life becomes your teacher and you see the choice to let go of “I” as life moments are presented…

Inner Doubt

The inner doubt that keeps you from your peace has nothing to do with life. Inner doubt is a creation of your own mind that makes you believe you’re not at peace…

There are practical ways to minimize the inner doubt that causes one to sabotage their own existence, but it has to be understood that the mind creating the doubt can’t quiet itself. You’ll have to find out why your own mind is telling you doubt is needed to cope with life; a life that is controlled by the conditioning to create inner doubt. Your own mind creates all the inner doubt you have by choosing to attach to thoughts that give the doubt energy. This unconscious conditioning is why doubt arises. The Conditioned Mind creates this as you do things that are destructive to your own well being. Why this doubtful mind set is developed I’m not sure, but I do know it can be described only as insane because your own mind creates it.

I know now it was my own mind that created doubt which arose from within myself. Because of the shift that occurred some years ago there‘s now awareness so inner doubt doesn’t have to be created anymore. I sit for the sole purpose to develop discipline which allows the mind to settle. If there isn’t discipline, your conditioning won’t be understood nor will the reason why doubt arises. This will lead you to being led around like a puppet on a string. Life does nothing to you, it’s your own mind that creates life. Living in a place of doubt as opposed to a place of peace will never be different until the conditioning that makes it so is different. All I ever wanted was to be at peace, but it was always elusive because I wasn’t aware it was my own mind that created the inner doubt that made peace elusive…

Harmonic Actions

When actions are in harmony with love, the heart opens and loving all beings becomes the norm. Not because it’s wanted, but because that’s the way love rolls when actions are in harmony with love…

Loving actions are worth more than all the books combined on what it means to be spiritual. And why this is so is because your harmonic actions are yours and the content of any book is someone else’s. Someone else’s idea of you will never be you, no matter if their way is copied exactly. This is why many remain in their life struggle because they’re trying to be someone else’s idea of who they should be. You can use books, methods, and whatnot as a tool, but the harmonic actions of why you do what you do will need to be reflected upon to see if the results of your efforts are in harmony with love. Not the story of love, but the love that arises not from effort, but from being in harmony with your own heart. This is where effort is meaningless if it’s not in harmony with love. Only loving actions from your own heart result in true meaning.

There are as many books about awakening as there are people practicing, but not everyone who reads a book and practices wakes up. This is because their actions aren’t of the necessary energy that allows harmony with a loving heart. Loving actions need to be understood if there’s to be harmony with all beings. This doesn’t mean a person won’t harm you or animals and insects won’t bite you, but it’s less likely you’ll put yourself in that type of situations being in harmony with a loving heart. In the space of stillness one learns to see their true actions and in the process have those actions in harmony with love. When this occurs you will love all beings, not because it’s wanted, but because that’s the way love rolls when your actions are in harmony with love…

Love Portal

The Conditioned Mind is grounded in selfishness, this is why many people don’t see the love portal. The love portal is always there, but it needs to be noticed so one can turn towards it and allow it to transform…

Love is a portal with transforming properties, that’s why when one sees the love portal, they’re transformed. Look at people, all begin as an infant. All have the potential to love, but it’s still only an infant. You put them in an environment, nurture them and give them all kinds of tools to cope with life, but without the source of a love portal, the transformation to a loving person will not occur. This transforming love portal is the source of life. Go into a room filled with selfish energy and show the love portal, there’s an instant transformation of the room. The rooms energy comes alive with color, the entire room is transformed. Without the love portal people still exist, but their vibrance is hidden.

When one wakes up to experience this hidden vibrance, it’s the love portal that transforms. You can be selfish your entire life, but once the love portal is seen, for the most part selfishness goes away. It will return somewhat because of one’s conditioning, but one will never be as selfish as they once were. They can’t because there will always awareness of love. This love portal reveals truth; it’s impossible to completely turn away from it. As stated before selfishness resurfaces because of one’s unconscious conditioning, but this love portal is always on beneath the conditioning because love is the source of our existence and the true essence of who we are. The Conditioned Mind is grounded in selfishness and the world is the way it is because not enough people see the love portal. The love portal is always there, it just needs to be noticed so one can turn towards it and allow it to transform…

Closed Mind

There’s nothing beneficial when someone has a closed mind. What happens is free flowing energy is cut off by a closed mind which causes suffering…

A closed mind is what causes you to get locked into only seeing things from the side of suffering. It matters little what the closed mind is; it’s the rigidness of being unmovable that doesn’t allow free flowing energy. This is what happens when a story is created and it becomes the closed mind of what life is about in any particular moment. This view becomes deeply embedded as you become emotionally tied into whatever it is that’s being focused on. It’s very difficult to not attach to something that is held dear to our hearts, such as our children, spouse, parents, relatives, friends and so on. You can have compassion and genuine love for something without attaching to it or being closed minded.

To me, a closed mind is the constant view of most people and it’s why many suffer unnecessarily. I’ve noticed this occurring in so many lives and I can see the suffering it’s causing. Unfortunately those in the midst of a closed mind cannot see it, nor can one pull themselves out of it until it’s seen as the cause of their suffering. A closed mind doesn’t allow the openness needed to be free of attachment, and since attachment is the root of suffering, suffering follows. The tighter the grip of something the more closed it becomes and the less free flowing energy there is in your life. There’s not much life in something that’s unmovable and this is exactly what happens when your free flowing energy is cut off; the closed mind controls life and causes suffering…

Spiritual Light

Spiritual light is of love and is the only thing that sustains the spiritual dimension. It’s not a possession, it’s given freely by doing less and becoming a channel to emit love to others…

The spiritual light is the exact opposite of the material world. In the material world, the more you accomplish as an individual the more successful you’re considered to be by others. Also the more you possess, the more material success becomes the guiding light of your life. Spiritual light doesn’t require individual accomplishments as they don’t assist in being more spiritual; you can’t possess spirituality. Unlike the material world, spiritual light is not a doing. The more you think you need to do something to be attain spiritual light, the less spiritual you will be. Spirituality is not something to possess, it can never be attained. In the material world the more you have, the more you are held in esteem. In the spiritual light the less you have, the more you are held in esteem. Not because of you, it’s because of the light of Universal Love that is emitted to others. You are held in esteem because of the light within, not because of anything possessed.

Those conditioned by the material world are attracted to possessions. Spiritual people are attracted to light. The light of Universal Love is the only thing that sustains the spiritual light. It’s not a possession, it’s given freely by doing less and becoming a channel to emit light to others. It isn’t a doing, actually the more you try to do to possess light, the less it shines. It’s in stillness that the spiritual light shines and becomes what your life is guided by. The quieter you become, the brighter the spiritual light shines and the more attracted others will be to it, but you can only be guided by spiritual light when you stop trying to attain it and learn to Just Be…
