Love Energy

Love energy is naturally free flowing because there’s no resistance, there isn’t a need to make love different. Selfish energy stops this flow because it’s based in trying to manipulate love…

Being aware of love at the precise moment it arises minimizes the selfish stories that are needed to make life the way you think it should be. Awareness of love stops the selfish story of the way you think something should be and allows the freedom of love, this becomes the beautiful view of the way that it is. After all, wanting things different is where all selfishness arises from. When you’re simply aware of love as it arises there isn’t a need for a selfish story so selfish energy doesn’t come into play as the love of your heart naturally becomes the beautiful operating energy of life.

Selfish energy becomes a created prison because it doesn’t allow for a natural flow of love energy; you become engulfed in the energy of selfishness. It’s the Conditioned Mind that cuts off the energy flow of love as it becomes the energy of the lower nature of self-centered nonsense. Why this energy causes issue is because it bombards love with an unnatural energy flow and doesn’t allow harmony. Love is naturally free flowing because there’s no resistance, there’s no need to make it different. Selfish energy stops the flow because it’s based in trying to manipulate love so what’s there is resisted to the point where the natural flow of love energy is cut off. The only thing needed for liberation is awareness aware of awareness, there’s no selfish energy here, there’s just the energy of love which is what’s actually here…

Unguarded Actions

It’s important to notice your actions because even if what you do comes from a labeled place of love, this label produces the bondage of unguarded actions which have complete control…

If you can’t watch your own actions to decipher if they’re truly beneficial, hold on because you’ll be taken on the roller coaster ride of life. Not that life does anything directly to you, but unguarded actions arise and they determines what kind of ride you’ll be on. Noticing your unguarded actions is essential if you’re not to be controlled by them. 

Thoughts that cause you to act are a natural part of life, they will occur. As far as I know there’s no way of controlling the first thought that arises, but I have found that noticing it allows for a split second of hesitation that can be used to decipher whether or not your actions are beneficial; remember attachment causes suffering, no matter how it’s labeled.

I often say the Conditioned Mind is diabolical because if there isn’t some awareness of how you’re controlled by unguarded actions, you’ll be controlled you as if you were a puppet on a string. So subtle are these unguarded actions that even if you’re doing things that are labeled as loving, if this isn’t watched, they will control you; bondage is bondage regardless of what label is applied to your actions. The Conditioned Mind is diabolical because of its subtleness in using whatever it can to remain in control of unguarded actions. This is also why it’s so important to notice your actions because even if what you do comes from a labeled place of love, the bondage this produces has complete control over you…

Beyond What You Think

Going beyond what you think is the gateway to truly being in harmony with life. Life’s energy will always be as it is, but you need to learn how to cooperate with it so your energy goes beyond what you think…

Visualize the ocean as the Universe and your thoughts as you’re swimming. You cannot swim without the ocean, but the ocean doesn’t need you to swim. It provides the place to swim, but not the swimming. You can swim forever, but it will always be a doing that’s using the ocean, and as the swimmer becomes tired, you’ll need something to hold onto or the ocean will consume you.

So what can you do to stop the constant thoughts (swimming) not as a temporarily solution, but one that will last and keep you from being consumed? You will need to learn to cooperate with the oceans energy and be in harmony with it. You can hope to find something in the ocean to keep you afloat, or you can turn over and simply float on your back. You’re still in the ocean, but now you simply align your energy with the oceans energy. You’re not fighting, grasping or hoping for something to come along to hold onto, you’re just floating on your back. Allowing yourself to be at one with the waves and thus you are using your energy to be in harmony with the oceans energy. 

Our thinking can be viewed like this, simply as energy. Life is also energy, which doesn’t need our thinking, but our thinking is from the energy of life. You can think forever, but it never becomes life, although it’s never separate from life. It’s just that the thinking energy is always grasping for something and doesn’t align with Universal energy. It’s when you become aware of your thinking through quieting the mind that you are in cooperation with the energy of the Universe and thus life. This is where you will find the stillness that allows you to be in harmony with life and stops the need to grasp for something that doesn’t assist in any way in keeping you afloat. Hence you are then aligned with the energy with the Universe, floating along in cooperation with life…

Surface Facade

The root of all struggles are deep, they’re not just at the surface facade. They’re rooted in the structure of how you think. If you don’t investigate this beyond the surface facade, nothing will ever change…

Changing the surface facade mind structure is like turning a ship. The intention to turn happens right away, but the turn itself is gradual. It’s as though we know we need to start turning right away, but we don’t see below the surface facade. Here’s a simple suggestion if you want to get in touch with breaking free of this ingrained surface facade structure; it’s not complicated. When you do something, investigate what the surface facade is. No reason to go back and look for a traumatic incident, why it’s seen only from the surface facade level is sufficient.

If the need to reach for something because life throws you a curve ball, and you don’t investigate why the need to reach arose, you’ll probably use a surface facade distraction not to succumb to it. By doing this you’ll never be free because you’ll never get in touch with why the surface facade is in place. Investigating why a surface facade is in place may be the most important thing you can do for yourself when something is done that’s not in your best interest. If you don’t, you will just substitute one thing for another and in the process remain trapped to what’s causing the need to reach. You may not like this post and you may even ignore it, but don’t be surprised when the next life curve ball comes and you find yourself reaching for something, you just won’t know why because you’re seeing it as a surface facade…

Sugar Trap

Reaching for sugar is directly linked to a craving that creates a trap. If you really want to understand your life, you’ll have to get very quiet and become aware of how subtle the sugar trap is…

Life through reaching for sugar is a trap, and this trap is constantly being set. Reaching for sugar is a labeled trap, but even labeling a glass of water is a trap; not a harmful one, but a trap just the same. When you learn not to label using sugar, you can become aware of the traps that keeps you from going beyond reaching for sugar. With this new awareness your mind finally settles enough to notice an expanded view. This is the initial awareness, but it will require much more practice to expand. The more it expands, the more you’ll have to let go of the material world which is a sugar trap. The more the sugar trap is let go of, the more you will understand the expanded view and the freer you will be.

The only reason there’s a need to reach for sugar by so many people is because the quietness that’s necessary to view it differently isn’t practiced. This isn’t inherently wrong, but it is limiting. Without the discipline to understand the difference between the sugar trap and the expanded view, there will be no difference and the sugar trap will be the only view that you will have. Not inherently wrong, but it is a trap, and what is trapped is your need to each for sugar…

Willingness to Change

People don’t change because the willingness to investigate why you do what you do isn’t given 100%: 50% willingness doesn’t get it done…

The idea of doing what puts you in alignment with love is much different than actually putting it into action. It’s not because it isn’t how you truly want to be, there’s just so much conditioning against you that without a 100% willingness, it‘s difficult to sustain a connection to love for a substantial amount of time. We all have times when it’s easier, but we also have our times when we say screw it and self-seek. Don’t be too hard on yourself, a lifetime of living one way will not change with a few sittings. The key is to remain willing on a practice that allows the self-seeking behavior to become less and less and for love to be more reflected in your actions.

Although love is natural, willingness is needed so there’s alignment with it. Sometimes it will seem like” what’s the use” but understand this is all part of the conditioning, the noise, the story, the unconsciousness, whatever you want to call it. Being constantly willing is a necessity if there’s to be change because the old behavior is so deeply ingrained to let go of control on its own. Why people don’t change is because the willingness to investigate why you do what you do isn’t given 100%. It‘s impossible to get more out of life than what you are willing to put into it. If you’re 50% willing, that’s what you’ll get and change will be minimum at best…

Conditioned Titles

When titles are held onto that are created by thinking which is noise, you can’t hear or see regardless of how much truth there is or lack of in what’s being presented…

What’s the difference if you think you believe in evolution or if you think there’s a supreme being, it’s really only a story that you make up and attach a title to. Or how about this, one day you think there’s a God and one day your mind tells you to think there’s no such thing as God; it’s the same mind creating both titles. Do what you may, but understand you make up your entire identity and attach it to a title created by your thinking Conditioned Mind. This is a powerful truth that most people will not see because there isn’t the silence necessary to see it. There are no real facts associated to any of your titles, they’re just a collection of thoughts. When there’s a lot of thinking that’s made into a story, that’s when your Conditioned Mind is able to create your title. I think I am this or that, but they’re all formed by thinking.

It’s like an addict, some use alcohol, some drugs, some gamble, use sex or even success. This is another one of those list that goes on and on, but the main thing to understand is we are all thinking addicts regardless of what’s used. It’s only being used to quiet a thinking mind agitation so you have a title for a story. You may or may not understand this, but most thinking is used for the same reason. God, no God, maybe God, alcohol, drugs, success, who cares, but you and the stories are all created to quiet a thinking mind agitation. Agree with me don’t agree with me, it’s your title, but if you can become silent, that’s when you will hear. When titles are held onto that are created by thinking which is noise, you can’t hear or see regardless of how much truth there is or lack of in what’s being presented…
