When there’s a thought you need something to provide peace, you’re trapped in this thought. Until this is understood you’ll remain trapped in the thought (the belief) that peace is external…
There will never be peace in life as long as you’re trapped in the thought of finding peace. Peace is something that’s already within everyone, but because of the way our minds become programmed we get trapped in the thought that peace is something to find. Unfortunately these thoughts are what makes the very thing you’re seeking (peace) elusive. Thoughts are the reason one is constantly reaching for something externally and until these thoughts are no more, you’ll remain trapped to the thoughts that peace is external. Using drugs, alcohol, gambling, sex, success, programs, therapy, self help books and so on is the proof you’re trapped. I can’t stress this enough as these thoughts have to be seen if you’re to ever experience true peace.
The thought of being at peace isn’t peace. What has to happen if you’re to ever be at peace is there has to be an understanding of what’s blocking your peace. The reason why one is not at peace is because of the inability to not attach to the thought you’re not at peace. When the thought to reach for something arises the trap arises. This is a programmed habit that’s very difficult to break. Peace isn’t something that can be grabbed so it’s in doing less that peace arises. Many get lost (trapped) in trying to find peace, but since it’s something that’s already within, the thought associated with finding it needs to be discarded so you can see it’s there. Although this isn’t easy to see, it’s imperative this thought of not being at peace is recognized so you can go beyond it…
