Reaching is the issue not the thing reached for. Not everything one thinks is cohesive is truly beneficial. It will take a very settled mind to see if what you think is cohesive truly is…
Doing what’s cohesive for your well being needs to be investigated to see if what you’re doing truly is cohesive and not just a story of what you think is cohesive. Many people play the lottery to become rich so to become rich becomes your cohesive energy. Sex is often used as being cohesive as is the spiritual path. Drugs, alcohol, gambling, and also their counter parts (their programs) are used as cohesive energy, but as the results of these energies may be different, the prison they keep you in is the same. Working out and healthy eating habits are very cohesive, but many attach a story to them and negate their true cohesiveness. I know many people are vegans and I have no opinion either way, but no where have I ever read that Jesus or the Buddha used this as a cohesive part of their practice. All I’m saying is what I’ve found to be truly cohesive needs no story or attachment to certain results.
I can only share my experience and I’ve found reaching for anything in whatever form it takes on is not true cohesiveness. The reaching is the issue, not the thing being reached for. To me in the space of just being with what arises in the present moment is truly cohesive. Not everything you think is cohesive truly benefits your life. It will take a very settled mind to see the subtleness of the attachment to things that are deemed cohesive. I say if you are reaching for something, regardless of what it is, it’s not cohesive to your well being. This is because the reaching itself is the issue as it keeps you in a mental prison…
