If you’re ever going to truly be at peace, learning how to be in a constant state of Presence so not to allow your mind agitations to take control is what needs to be learned…
Until you learn the discipline that allows the mind to settle in Presence, what’s used to quiet the cravings of your mind agitations determines your state of being. There are many many things used to satisfy these agitations; your conditioning determines this. Whether it’s sex, drugs, alcohol, food, false pride, trying to control life and others, talking about others in a slanderous way, or whatever it is that’s being used to satisfy these agitation, it will be craved until the agitation is satisfied and subsides. Something is needed to quiet the agitation until it’s learned not to allow it to arise.
When this mind agitation arises if the necessary discipline to allow Presence has been developed your reactions will be based in love. If not what arises will probably be of a self serving nature and manifest in some form that’s probably not conducive to your well being. That’s why it’s best to develop Presence that allows the mind to settle because it doesn’t allow it to become agitated.
If Presence isn’t developed the arisen agitation will constantly have to be satisfied, and they will be satisfied I guarantee you that. We are all conditioned and controlled by our mind agitations. That’s why it’s so important to practice disciplining your mind because it‘s the only way that I know to stop the mind agitations. So learn to sit and be still in Presence because the choice is to be agitated and allow your mind to control you like you‘re a puppet on a string. This choice is always yours…
