Attached Opinions

Attached opinions keeps you stuck in a world where there’s very little freedom because there’s no room for truth. If you want freedom, the attached opinions will have to go…

The more opinions there are about something, the more you’re attached to that opinion. It’s difficult to experience the openness of something if you’ve already decided how it is. To remain open one needs to limit their opinions. This is essential if there is be alignment with the Universe and be free from the things that you’re attached to. Being attached to the things that have a hold on you will need to be let go of if there’s to be freedom; this hold is very subtle. Even the opinion on whether you like this post or not will keep you attached in the same place. This post can resonate with you without an opinion, but opinions seem to make the world go round. That doesn’t mean it’s a good thing, but that’s just an opinion.

I lived an existence that was very opinionated for most of my life and this caused much conflict with people who weren’t of the same opinion; wars are started over being attached to differences of opinions. If you’re really honest with yourself you’ll see that every disagreement you ever had with someone was caused by being attached in a difference of an opinion about something. I’m not saying you shouldn’t stand up for truth, but truly knowing about something and having an opinion about it is totally different.

There’s a place of no opinion, if it’s not understood you’ll never become unattached to your opinions and you’ll remain in an existence that’s attached to opinions. When this is the place lived from, there’s very little freedom. When you can just be with life as it unfolds and not label it as this or that, you’ll be on the verge of truly experiencing life, attached opinion free. When there’s no attachment forming an opinion, there’s freedom to be with life as it is, without the need of an attached opinion that just keeps you stuck in the same place…

Truly Supportive

Reaching itself is always the issue not the thing reached for. Not everything one thinks is healthy is truly supportive. It will take a very settled mind to see if what is considered supportive truly is…

Doing what’s thought to be healthy for your well being needs to be investigated to see if what you’re doing is truly supportive and not just a story of what you think is supportive. Many people play the lottery to become rich so to become rich becomes supportive. Sex is often seen as supportive as is the spiritual path. Drugs, alcohol, gambling, and also their counter parts (their programs) are used as supportive, but as the results of these valued actions may be different, the prison they keep you in is the same. Working out and healthy eating habits are supportive, but many attach a story to them and negate their true value. I know many people are vegans and I have no opinion either way, but no where have I ever read that Jesus or the Buddha valued this as part of their supportive practice. All I’m saying is what I’ve found to be truly supportive needs no story or attachment for certain results.

I can only share my experience and I’ve found reaching for anything in whatever form it takes on is not supportive; the reaching is the issue, not the thing being reached for. To me in the space of just being with what arises in the present moment is truly supportive. Not everything that’s considered healthy is truly supportive in life. It will take a very settled mind to see the subtleness of the attachment to things that are deemed supportive. I say if you‘re reaching for something regardless of what it is, it has no value to your well being and this is because the reaching itself is the issue: this is what keeps you in an unhealthy and unsupportive prison…

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…
