When there’s awareness of a stillness view instead of an incessant mind view and you don’t engage in what comes from the mind, it makes for a view of life most people will never experience…
A view from the mind is very different than a stillness view; the mind has a much different agenda than stillness. Every conflict known to mankind has been because of the mind. Even when Jesus trashed the market place, it was from the mind; the proof of this was that he didn’t like what was going on; you cannot have a conflict from stillness. Stillness aches at times and all compassion comes from here, there’s an understanding from stillness that the mind just can’t grasp. Mind seeing is strictly from the way one is conditioned. Stillness arises from the space of Now. I can tell right away when someone comes from their mind because there’s attachment with what’s being said. Usually the sentences starts with my, I, me or it will be said, I see what you’re saying, but.
Seeing from stillness doesn’t make you smarter than anyone, all it means is you’ve been granted the vision to have a settled mind. It’s difficult to see from stillness because of all the mind based distractions in place. These distractions keeps you trapped to the reaching of a view from the mind. Reach, reach, reach, stillness needs no such reaching, it realizes its completeness as it is. When your view is from stillness you become more of an observer than a reactor, at least that’s been my experience. I’ve lived a mind based existence for many years. Even today the old conditioning resurfaces, but because of the awareness of the mind view, there’s no engagement with what comes from the mind. This naturally allows a view from stillness to arise; when you live from here it makes for a view of life that’s much different than the view most people will ever see…
