Sugar Trap

Reaching for sugar is directly linked to a craving that creates a trap. If you really want to understand your life, you’ll have to get very quiet and become aware of how subtle the sugar trap is…

Life through reaching for sugar is a trap, and this trap is constantly being set. Reaching for sugar is a labeled trap, but even labeling a glass of water is a trap; not a harmful one, but a trap just the same. When you learn not to label using sugar, you can become aware of the traps that keeps you from going beyond reaching for sugar. With this new awareness your mind finally settles enough to notice an expanded view. This is the initial awareness, but it will require much more practice to expand. The more it expands, the more you’ll have to let go of the material world which is a sugar trap. The more the sugar trap is let go of, the more you will understand the expanded view and the freer you will be.

The only reason there’s a need to reach for sugar by so many people is because the quietness that’s necessary to view it differently isn’t practiced. This isn’t inherently wrong, but it is limiting. Without the discipline to understand the difference between the sugar trap and the expanded view, there will be no difference and the sugar trap will be the only view that you will have. Not inherently wrong, but it is a trap, and what is trapped is your need to each for sugar…
