There are many lies to what an awakening is, for those awake there’s awareness of these lies. Remember this, the mind that creates lies is the same mind that reinforces the lies…
All lies are a creation of the mind, until there’s awareness of this the lies remain. One of the most important things to realize when it comes to lessening the mind lies is, the mind that creates lies is the same mind that reinforces the lies. Think about how it’s your own mind creating lies, so you’re basically lying to yourself. What’s crazy about this is it’s like there are two minds with different views. This goes on in most lives every single day without realizing it, but don’t be fooled by the lies because even the view that isn’t a lie can create lies; to be awake is to be aware of this.
An awakening isn’t a mystical mind state, it’s simply about becoming aware of the thoughts that are lies, that’s basically it. It’s in this awareness that one naturally stops attaching to the lying thoughts. Being awake doesn’t stop them from arising, but there’s awareness they’re there; the attachment to the lies is seen. Until there’s awareness of this, the mind will continue to create lies and reinforce them. It does this to distract you from the truth. And as long as there are lies without awareness, you’ll continue to be controlled by a mind that holds you in captivity to its lies…
