Looking at yourself takes an amount of perseverance that most people will never possess because the conditioning in place will not allow it. Until life isn’t all about you, your conditioning will remain…
Everyday I’m amazed at the things people are ok holding onto with the emphasis totally on satisfying a fictitious self. This is done without much consideration for anyone else and it’s strictly from a me, me, me attitude. I know it’s because they know not what they do, but the suffering this causes and how it cements the conditioning in place can be truly disheartening. Notice I said can be disheartening because if you’re truly awake, there’s the understanding that the way things are is the way things are and wanting them different also cements the conditioning in place. I’m writing about this because it’s heart breaking because there are answers that not many are willing to hear. It’s like there’s a cure for cancer, but nobody will listen. Without going into specifics, the conditioned unconsciousness runs so deep that people will justify doing all kinds of self destructive behavior without blinking an eye; drugs, alcohol, gambling, porn, rioting, protesting, total defiance for any authority, murder, rape, assault, robbery and looking inward, this is only the tip of the Conditioned Mind iceberg.
Here is why this is, at least from my experience. It’s much easier because of the way one is conditioned to justify self destructive behavior than to look at yourself. Truly looking at yourself takes an amount of perseverance that most people will never possess because the conditioning in place won’t allow it. Until life isn’t all about you, your conditioning will remain. There’s really no way around this. Your life doesn’t have to be about everyone else, there just has to be a certain amount of perseverance to look inward so it’s seen life isn’t all about you…
