The recurring behavior of a Conditioned Mind can be devastating if it’s not understood. The recurring behavior manifests in many ways. When the mind quiets many fall away; that’s when life truly begins…
The reason why it’s so difficult to change is because the mind defaults to recurring behavior; even to the point of its own destruction. The conditioning must be changed if the recurring behavior is to be changed. If this isn’t identified the behavior recurs over and over, that is until the necessary practice is cultivated to stop this. If nothing changes nothing changes. If the conditioning is changed the recurring behavior becomes non existent. You don’t change the behavior because it’s a by-product of the conditioning. When there’s quietness instead of conditioning, there won’t be any recurring behavior associated with the conditioning.
This is immensely valuable in the understanding of recurring behavior. If quietness isn’t brought into your life, the noise in the head will continue to rule. You have been conditioned to behave in recurring ways. Whether those ways are beneficial depends on the base of your conditioning. The base is what determines the results of your decisions and how they affect the entire Universe. You may not think acting in a self-serving way affects the Universe, but it does. Energy is energy, never created or destroyed, simply transformed.
No act is isolated from itself, whether based in love, greed, hate, or delusion; it affects the whole. The real issue is getting to know how your recurring conditioning makes decisions for you. Change happens when this is realized; that’s when different behavior arises. Your own mind will fight you on this, it makes you think the unknown is not good, but it’s only a story because everything that is known today was once unknown. So learn to quiet the squirrel cage mind so the recurring behavior isn’t the automatic way to go. You’ll be amazed with the way life changes when you start to do things differently and act in ways that are conducive to love. It’s truly that simple, but because the Conditioned Mind likes to revert back to the recurring behavior it knows, change is not easy…
