Universal Heart Energy
To go beyond Conditioned Thinking one must go beyond the noise in the head. You cannot live from the heart when the noise in the head is in control…
Be of stillness and you will be of your heart. Living from the heart is not only real, it’s also the only place a person will ever find true peace. The mind will have to settle enough to a point where you can experience the difference between living from the head and living from the heart. Both exist, but we are conditioned to live from our head. We make our thoughts our entire world. They form our belief system and because they are strictly from the head, our thoughts become the base of our existence. This is our dilemma; we have been programmed to believe that we have to think and we are our thoughts; this is what controls most people. This type of living is all in the head. The heart gets locked out with the head as the base of our existence.
When you can get beyond this noise in your head you will start to experience what it means to live from your heart, but this isn’t a thought, it’s purely a place of stillness. The experience of living from the heart can’t really be explained; it’s an experience. It’s like trying to define God or Love, any word used doesn’t really do it justice. It gets watered down trying to use words to describe it. Find your place of stillness and you will find your heart. It is there, but you have to be completely committed to it if you are to experience it. A little stillness will not do. Only committed stillness will allow for the heart to overcome the head. Practice, practice, practice and one day your heart will open to a world that goes beyond anything the mind can conjure up. In stillness all of life arises, and all of life arises from the heart, but it’s not of our heart that this occurs, it’s the heart of the Universe. We are just a manifestation of the Universal Heart and it will only be in stillness that we will understand this from your own heart and experience living life from here…
Obsessive Mind
Although the pleasures of the world take on many forms, it’s the obsessive mind that makes one seek them. This obsession can only be quieted in stillness because when the mind is still no obsession exist…
The obsession aspect of the Conditioned Mind is how it’s almost always in pleasure seeking mode. Even when we get down on ourselves, it’s a perverse form of pleasure. The mind wants to obsessively keep all the pleasure thoughts even if this causes its own destruction; it spends most of its time doing this. Whether it’s weaving in and out of traffic, only to catch a red light and have all the cars that you just passed pull up to the same light, or doing something and asking yourself why you did it, the reason for the doing is strictly to satisfy some obsessive form of pleasure. That your own mind questions why you do what you do is how diabolical it is, but understand it’s only this way because of how the mind has been obsessively conditioned.
The obsessive pleasure seeking mode is not one which is in our best interest, but the Conditioned Mind doesn’t really care about that; control is all it cares about. It makes you think seeking pleasure is a necessity, but when the mind starts to settle, it loses its grip on you. True pleasure is in stillness not in things; the pleasure of stillness is not the same pleasure that the world offers. The pleasure of the world is based in obsessive lies, the pleasure of stillness is based in truth. There are many pointers that speak of quieting an obsessive mind that only stillness can satisfy. This obsession is the self seeking pleasure of the world. This is the obsession the world creates; it is never truly satisfied. It’s only in stillness that the obsessive mind is satisfied. Not because it’s given something, but because in stillness an obsession never materializes so there is no obsessive mind that needs to be satisfied…
Open Mind State
When a person awakens, an open mind state is provided which allows a truthful view of your actions. With this open mind state you become aware if your actions are truly beneficial…
Having an open mind state allows for the ability to decipher the immediate effects of your actions and your current view. An open mind state doesn’t allow a delusional mind state to arise. In seeing delusion for what it is and its controlling characteristics, you just may be able to pause for a millisecond. If this isn’t seen, these characteristics will continue their delusional mind control.
Observe the mind state of delusion and its polar opposites, truth, generosity, love, and wisdom; these are mind states most people fluctuate between. With an open mind state you see how your actions and the associated consequences are linked. What happens first is you can decipher the mind state associated with the action, and second it’s seen if the associated action is beneficial. It’s very easy to see rage and its association with the mind state of anger. It doesn’t take much intelligence to see how this action isn’t beneficial to anyone. Without awareness of this one remains trapped in the mind state of rage and hence the associated actions. Intelligence has no bearing on this whatsoever.
It also works this way with the action of giving. Giving with no attached expectation is an action associated with the mind state of generosity. You can definitely see how this action benefits everyone; to me this is what an awakening is. One isn’t rendered white as snow because of becoming awake. No one among us can cast the first stone, but by the mind settling your view becomes open and you become aware of your actions and the associated mind state of those actions. It can then be seen that your actions are based in truth and are a benefit not only to yourself, but to all beings…
Heart Truth
There’s existence through made up stories or there’s the bigger picture beyond the stories where one is free because there’s a heart truth in the way things are…
When the mind is settled existence becomes truthful instead of reliance on your limited stories. There’s a deep truth of a settled mind; it’s in this settling that you see the existence of life itself. When you’re in this mind state, the everlasting truth of the heart is there to quiet the mind noise which is the cause of all doubly.
A mind that’s settled allows you to live from a truthful heart. This connects you with the goodness of life, your own internal goodness, and the goodness of all beings. The connection is already there, it’s just not known how to be aware of it. The only reason there isn’t awareness of this is because the Conditioned Mind blocks the truth that arises from the heart; these blocks allow all kinds of made up nonsense.
When it’s learned to discipline an undisciplined mind your blocks slowly subside; what naturally remains is a deep unyielding bond with your truthful heart. This bond is what’s there beyond the noise of a Conditioned Mind. In this space there’s truthfulness because with a settled mind it’s known who you truly are. A truthful heart allows the mind to settle so you’re not relying on your made up stories to live life. When there’s truthfulness, life is lived in the most beneficial way; as the beautiful loving being that you truly are…
Dangling Prize Mind
A mind distracted by dangling prizes can’t quiet itself regardless of what’s used as a distraction. Dangling prizes reinforce the distractions because it blocks out the awareness they are there…
If a distracted dangling prize mind is in control and running your life, it doesn’t matter much what’s going on, it’s going to be difficult to be aware they are there. It’s such a dangling prize world because most people think their answers are outside them when the answers are within. What the dangling prizes actually are and how they’re created is by not being aware that they’re not needed. With a mind that’s conditioned to go after dangling prizes, you have to constantly look for them, hence the distractions. This is how Conditioned Mind dangling prize distractions are formed and how they block awareness of your inner presence. It’s distractions created because if you understood them, the need to look for them would be non existent and so would the dangling prize distractions.
The ability to understand the dangling prize mind lies in being aware they’re there, but it’s not something that’s going to happen on its own. It’s a beautiful thing the awareness of the worlds dangling prizes are in your hands and that it’s totally up to each individual how much awareness there is in your life. A little quiet equates to a little awareness so it’s up to each individual to do what’s necessary to become more aware of the dangling prize mind distractions. As you become more aware of being in the present moment the dangling prize distractions lessen and what remains is inner presence. If you’re waiting for anything else, you’ll be waiting a very long time as it won’t happen while your dangling prize mind distractions are in control…
Peaceful Awareness
Don’t allow anyone to take you from your peace. Let them think they’ve won, their satisfaction will be short lived before needing to win again; a solid foundation of peaceful awareness will last a lifetime…
We as humans are all created equal. It’s not that some have weaker minds than others, but some are more aware of themselves and this makes it seem that some have strengths that others don’t possess. The more unaware one is of themselves, the more you will be dragged around by the occurrences that happen in life; peaceful awareness is what one awakens to. It’s not an awakening to the great secrets of the Universe, but more so what pulls you from peaceful awareness. I would say in my own case one area where I’ve become more aware is in not allowing other people’s actions to pull me from my place of peace. At times my initial reaction is to get annoyed, but it’s usually realized very quickly that most people know not what they do so to allow their actions to control me is on me. Because all humans come into the world basically the same (unconditioned) it’s the level of conditioning that makes one appear weak or strong, but one is just more aware of their conditioning than another person.
Let the other person think they’ve won, that they’ve gotten the better of you. Except to the ego it means nothing; this is how unconscious energy is squashed. This doesn’t change the other person, but it does change you. It stops all the stories associated with the situation which festers as unconsciousness; I’m going to say this to them, or they are wrong, or don’t they know who I am, this is all the nonsense of the Conditioned Mind (ego) and nothing good comes from this energy. So as I said, let the other person think they’ve won, but you will know in your heart what the truth is because of remaining in your place of peace and not giving in to the Conditioned Mind nonsense. After all one can only be taken from their place of peace when it’s allowed and it only occurs when the ego is in control…
Deceptive Void
The Conditioned Mind creates a deceptive lie seen as a void, this void is a lack of love. Until this is realized, one will constantly need to reach for something to try and fill this deceptive void even though it doesn’t truly exist…
For many years I had a deceptive void in me that was created from a lack of love. That’s why I constantly reached for things to fill it, I have since come to understand this. This deceptive void isn’t a true void at all, it’s emptiness; this emptiness is the essence of love. It’s where life truly happens when one is busy making other plans. By not understanding this, I spent most of my life trying to fill a deceptive void with whatever I could get my hands on. This is an endless list as to what can be used, so each individual has to investigate for themselves what that is. It’s ironic though because now most of my life is spent in the space that for so long was a deceptive void; the truth of this has been revealed to me.
This deceptive void is the reason a person reaches for anything or wants life to be different. If this was understood humanity would be much different because contentment would be the way of the world. The void is a deceptive lie of the Conditioned Mind and it keeps one constantly needing the present moment to be different so it keeps you reaching to fill it. This will need to be understood if the reaching is to ever end. When it’s understood, the deceptive void transforms to love because the present moment doesn’t need to be different. When the present moment doesn’t need to be different, life reveals its true essence which doesn’t ever need to be filled with anything because the deceptive void is seen for the lie that it is…
Doing Mind Limits
A doing mind is a mind that has limited conditioned ideas based on a sense of self. Because of this there’s no space to just be…
As long as the doing mind is in control, there will be limited peace because at the core of this doing is the sense of self. The sense of self may be the hardest concept to let go of because it’s interwoven with just about every thought. Even though it has also been in place since existence began, it’s not the sense of self that limits, it’s the attachment to it. I have a sense of self simply because I exist, but the attachment to it has lessened significantly in the last few years. This has opened enough space to allow being instead of doing. This is not to say I don’t sometimes attach to the sense of self, but never like the first forty nine years of my life.
People who question what I write about don’t realize there’s an understanding of how my mind works because I’ve sat and investigated why I reacted and did the things that I did. Very few truly investigate their Conditioned Mind and this leads to doing mind limits. This doesn’t make me better than anyone knowing this, but by having an understanding of the lies that limited and controlled me for so many years, it allows me to not attach to them. I would have to say therein lies the difference between having doing mind limits or being free to just be. This also creates the difference between doing mind limits or the unlimited expansion of being…
Universal Energy
Universal energy points to the heart. The energy of the heart is the energy that’s known; this is when we’re connected. Universal Love is the true energy that transforms…
Make a stand for what is known of the heart, not what is believed in the head. Experience truly becomes a loving principle because it becomes what is truly known in the heart. A belief is not truly known, it’s just some story made up by the Conditioned Mind to make you feel warm and fuzzy inside. When
you think the story is true and you try and make others see it, issues arise. You can never know truth, yours or anyone’s else’s unless it’s experienced; at which time it’s no longer a belief, it becomes a fact for the experiencer.
For most of my life I didn’t understand this so I didn’t do the things that were conducive to my spiritual well being; if I don’t understand me, there’s no way I can understand you. I cannot know what someone’s path is even if I am walking side by side with them. When I share my experience, it’s not to force something on someone, it’s to tell what I’ve experienced. In the process if it assist someone on this journey called life, so be it. The Universe has the energy to transform lives, not individuals. When the individual thinks it’s them, there in lies the issue. Become the instrument of Universal energy and your heart will be your guide
Undisciplined Mind
When there’s a need to reach for something it’s because of an undisciplined mind. Until this is seen you will remain undisciplined as you seek to quiet the mind with the next thing reached for…
You will never find the peace you’re seeking with an undisciplined mind because the mind being undisciplined is why you’re not at peace. Peace is something that’s already within everyone, but because of the way our minds are undisciplined, it makes one think peace is something on the outside. Unfortunately an undisciplined mind makes the very thing you’re seeking impossible to grasp. An undisciplined mind is the reason you constantly reach for something from the outside. Until this is seen you’ll remain thinking peace is in the next thing reached for. Alcohol, gambling, drugs, sex, religion, social status, programs, therapy, self help books, politics, and on and on, this reaching is proof that the mind is undisciplined. I can’t stress this enough as the undisciplined mind has to be seen if you‘re to experience true peace in your life.
What has to happen is there has to be an understanding of the undisciplined minds inability to just be. When the need to reach for something arises the undisciplined mind takes control. This undisciplined mind creates a vicious cycle that’s very difficult to break. Disciplining the mind and being at peace isn’t something attained or achieved; by doing less (detachment) peace is experienced. Too many people get lost in the undisciplined mind trying to find peace through attachment. Since it’s something that’s already within you, the undisciplined mind creates an agitation; it becomes about finding what’s already there. This is not easy to see, but it’s why I share so the undisciplined mind can be seen for what it is; the cause of why you aren’t at peace…
Imagined Feelings
Feelings that aren’t based in facts are just a figment of the imagination. Stick with the facts and stay connected to life, or not and live a disconnected state of existence…
There are times that it seems there’s more of a connection with life than at other times, but it isn’t life that changes, life just is; it’s something in us that causes our disconnect. This is the same when we feel disconnected with people, it’s always something within ourselves that causes the disconnect. Even if there’s interactions with the most evil person alive, when you’re connected with life, you’ll have compassion for them because you’ll understand the prison they’re in. When a disconnect does occur, compassion is non existent and feelings turn to whatever your conditioning calls for. The more conditioning there is the more there’s a feeling of being disconnected, and what you’re disconnected from is Love.
No matter the circumstances, we only internalize our feelings and allow them to control our emotions when we come from a place to self-serve. The more the minds default setting is to self-serve, the more disconnected one feels from Love. Our connection to life is related to living in the present moment and how we rightly relate ourselves with it. The connection is because in the present moment the mind isn’t allowed to roam around in the past or future so by being present, you’re in full cooperation with what is, which puts you in cooperation with life. When you cooperate with life you’re connected to Love which connects you to life. So live now and live life, or not and live life in the imagined state of feeling disconnected…
Delusional Story
The value of knowing yourself is priceless because it allows the mind to settle instead of needing to make up a delusional story to be something that you’re not…
One of the insights revealed to me is having the awareness of my own presence. What is meant by this is to be aware of who I truly am and not to need a delusional story of who I am. When my book was published I was thinking of ways to get its message to people. Just by the fact that it was written I knew there was a valuable message to share about how my view of life became real instead of delusional. Shortly afterwards I started writing and posting articles on social media sites. One day I was contacted by a site to write articles for them, I thought this was a great way to get my books message some exposure. After about six articles the admin of the site said people were contacting her about my articles, saying they were like teachings and asked if I could make them more inspirational. I thought about it and decided I couldn’t compromise the message revealed to me. I told her I wouldn’t change my style; I didn’t write another article for them.
It was important for me to stand my ground and not be someone other than what was revealed to me; it’s just as important today. The value of knowing who you are is priceless because it allows the mind to settle instead of needing to make up a delusional story. I’m not this loving spiritual head in the clouds person; I am what I am. If there was such a thing as a spiritual labors union, I would be the head of it; I’m a blue collared spiritual person. I understand many things, but my feet are mostly planted in the present moment so if it’s not happening now, it doesn’t really matter all that much to me. I’ve learned early on that a delusional story isn’t needed to be something that I’m not. What this allows is to not have any delusional energy within myself and in the process just be at peace with who I am. Not everyone agrees with what I write, but at the end of the day it’s me who I’m with, and I’m grateful there’s no need for a delusional story to be something that I’m not…
Attachment Restrictions
Whatever you attach to it becomes your restricting energy. If you don’t stop attaching so there’s some space created that’s needed for you to love, you will suffer the most…
The so called choice to attach to things is the gateway to suffering, but there really isn’t a choice here because of the way the Conditioned Mind is in control. Suffering is inevitable because of the conditioned attaching energy that’s in place. If this is to change, space needs to be created so the attaching energy is replaced by first stillness then by love; there’s no way around this. Attach to whatever the flavor of the day, week, month, or year is, just understand there will always be something to attach to which will cause you to suffer. Today it’s politics, tomorrow it’s a co worker, the job, traffic, weather, relatives, and so on. This will never change until there’s space for love. If you attach to one individual and bemoan them you don’t truly have the space for love in your heart. This is strong language, but it’s true.
Unconditional love can only be without one iota of attachment. This is a truth the Conditioned Mind doesn’t allow most to see. I can say I have love for all humanity, what I don’t love is humanity’s conditioning, but I do understand it and I choose to not attach to conditioned nonsense. Attachment leads to suffering regardless of who or what is being attached to because it becomes restricting energy. Until this is understood you become the very thing that you show discontent towards. This is a Universal Law; you cannot be separate from the energy that comes from you because it is you. Stop attaching and create space in your heart for love, if you don’t you are the one who will suffer the most by remaining with the restricting energy of what you are attaching to…
