Life is a happening not a doing. If it’s made into something to do, there will always be the agitation of an inner tug-of-war. In the space of not doing there’s peace because the inner tug-of-war is nonexistent…
It may seem as though life creates a tug-of-war so lessons are learned, but the tug-of-war is inner. Life doesn’t create a tug-of-war, that’s not its nature, life is just life. Things happen because of certain laws and conditions producing certain result. This is life just being life, it’s never personal. There’s inner space in every person that you can anchor in when it seems like life creates a tug-of-war, but this isn’t life, its just the agitated story the Conditioned Mind creates; a story of an inner tug-of-war.
When you can stay anchored you‘ll stop creating your own tug-of-war. This is regardless of what happens in life, unless you make it about life doing something to you. Life does nothing to no one. It’s each individual alone from the way they‘re conditioned that makes life seem as though there’s an inner tug-of-war. This occurs because without an anchor everything that happens in life is made into a burden of something to do. But understand, whatever goes on between your ears about what you think you have to do, that is an inner tug-of-war; it’s something you create from within yourself. Don’t blame life for the inability of not staying anchored and being left unprotected. Find your anchor space so you are planted and stay there as much as possible. The more you stay anchored the fewer stories there will be in your life, and the less it will seem like there’s an inner tug-of-war…
