A Settled View

When there’s awareness of a settled view and you don’t engage in what comes from the unsettled mind, it makes for a view of life most people will never experience…

A view from an unsettled mind is very different than a settled one; the unsettled mind has a much different agenda than being settled. Every conflict known to mankind has been because of the unsettled mind. You cannot have a conflict when a mind is settled. Although a settled view aches at times, it’s where all compassion comes from. This is an understanding from a settled view that the conditioned view can’t grasp. Mind seeing is strictly from the way one is conditioned. A settled view arises from the space of Now. I can tell right away when someone comes from stirring mind view 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.

A settled view doesn’t make you smarter than anyone, all it means is you’ve been granted the vision to see clearly. A settled view is difficult to see from because of all the distractions in place. These distractions keeps you trapped to the reaching of a view from the mind. Reach, reach, reach, a settled view needs no such reaching, it realizes its completeness as it is. When your view is settled you become more of an observer than a reactor, at least that’s been my experience. I had an unsettled based view existence for many years. Even today the old conditioning resurfaces, but because of the awareness there’s less engagement with what comes from the mind. This naturally allows a settled view to arise. When you live from here it makes for a view of life much different than most people will ever experience…
