What’s considered the box of society entraps most people to the idea of what others consider normal and unless this can be seen so you can go beyond it, there will be acceptance of someone else’s idea as your own…
Stepping outside the box of what is considered normal as far as society goes is a must if you’re to go beyond the trap of the ideas of others. You may ask why would a person want to go beyond what’s considered the box of society and here’s why, the so called box is based in form and to be attached to form is the cause of suffering; it’s as simple as that. With the attachment to the senses (form) life will still occur, it just won’t be experienced as fully as it can be. There will still be experiences, how can there not be with one being alive, but they will be dictated by form and there’ll be much nonsense associated with them. The so called box entraps you the ideas of what others think is considered normal and unless you can see this to go beyond it, you’ll accept someone else’s idea as your own. It’s an easy trap to get snared in because the bait is so enticing.
This plays right into the reward system that‘s considered the society’s box. Who does anything that doesn’t have the reward of pleasure associated with it? This can be applied to just about anybody and anything. When was the last time you purposely did something that you knew was going to be unpleasant with no reward attached to it? This is pivotal in understanding the process of the Conditioned Mind because until you can just be with whatever arises without judging it or associating it with pleasure, the society box syndrome will be what dictates the life you’re living and it will probably be someone else’s idea of what’s considered normal…
