Distorted Minded View

There’s not much life in a distorted minded view. What happens with a distorted view is one’s love flowing energy is cut off which causes everyone to suffer…

A distorted minded view is what causes one to get locked into only seeing things from the side of suffering. It matters little what that distortion is, as it’s the rigidness of being in a distorted mode that doesn’t allow love flowing energy. The is what happens when a story is created and it becomes the distorted view of what life is about in any particular moment. This becomes deeply ingrained as one becomes emotionally tied to whatever the distorted view is focused on. It’s very difficult to not attach to something that is held dear to our hearts, such as our children, spouse, parents, relatives, friends and so on, but you can have compassion, passion, and genuine love for something without attaching to it and it being distorted.

To me, being distorted minded is the normal view of many people and it’s why many suffer unnecessarily. I’ve noticed this occurring in so many lives and I can see the suffering it’s causing. Unfortunately those in the midst of this distorted view cannot see it. Nor can one pull themselves out of it until the distorted minded view is seen as the cause of suffering. The distorted view doesn’t allow the openness needed to be free from attachment, and since attachment is the root of suffering, suffering is inevitable. The tighter the grip of something the more one becomes distorted minded and the less love flowing energy there is in one’s life. There’s not much life in a distorted minded view because what happens is one’s love flowing energy is cut off; this view always causes suffering…
