The ways to be drawn in by the world are endless, but understand the draw comes from your own mind and even though your conditioning provides the triggers, you alone attach to them…
If you’re practicing to live a spiritual life, but you don’t know your own mind, it’s like going to the gym, but not making much of an effort to work out; your results will be non existent. If you don’t notice your attachments, the whole point of any practice is missed. This is because of the draw of the world which makes looking inward difficult. There are so many things in place that prevent looking inward from happening, and if it doesn’t happen, you’ll remain in bondage to worldly attachments. Attachments are all they are because when there’s even the slightest opening to allow what’s within to be seen, your expansion begins.
The attachments to the world are very enticing. If it wasn’t the percentage of conscious and unconscious beings would be reversed. It’s this way because the attachments to the world are in control. This is only real to the degree of one’s worldly attachments. There’s no denying they’re there, but they’re in control because there’s attachment to the belief they’re needed. We alone are the creators of this, if one doesn’t become familiar with their own mind, the worldly attachments will continue their control, sadly there’s really no way around this…
