Change Your Station

The only way to change the station of the mind is to have something in place that will allow it to be changed. This is where quietness comes in because without it there won't even be awareness of what’s playing…

I really enjoy music, the other night I caught myself listening to music and catching the last half of a song. When the song was over I began station surfing, looking for something to listen to. 10 seconds on one station, 10 seconds on another 15 on another, than another and another, you get the picture. How quick to change the station without hesitation, but isn't it amazing how we stay on one station when it comes to the mind. We're so reluctant to change the station even though nothing is truly on. Actually what's mostly on are replays, yet we'll often to the same station (thought) over an over. It's as if we're stuck on one station and don't know how to go to a different one and in a sense we are.

Think of something you get fixated on and see how hard it is to change your mind when its got you in its grip. I would say unless there's extreme awareness of this, changing your station will be very difficult, not impossible, but difficult. The only way to change the station of the mind is to have something in place that will allow it to be changed. This is where quietness comes in because without it there won't even be awareness what’s on. It may be a repeat using some fictitious name, but it's still a repeat. Watch the subtleness of this and in time you will see your mind for what it is and how it likes to default to familiar stations. The issue is you can get so comfortable with familiar stations that it's not realized the station needs to be changed; this realization will only occur if you have something in place that's worth changing to…

Weighted Adjustments

If life has to be a certain way for it to be okay, it's as if a weight is being carried around because needing life a certain way creates the load of having to make constant adjustments…

Nobody knows what this life has in store for them between the time they are born and when it ends. Today you can be going along with what's considered the perfect life and in an instant it can change, and it will for someone. Some turn of events is occurring right now as I'm writing this that's turning someone's life upside down. Moments ago it may have been just the way that it was wanted, but now all that has changed. So the point of this writing is it will hopefully allow you to take a moment to reflect on life needing to be a certain way for it to be considered okay and how when it changes there's a weight that’s carried around.

So much time is spent trying to maintain a certain existence and when the moment comes that it changes, will you be ready for it or will the change be resisted and hence will you allow the change to create an unnecessary load. Life is life and without a moments notice it changes and can even end; this is occurring right now for someone. The question to ask yourself is what weight are you carrying around that you deemed so important? If life ended right now, everything and I do mean everything you are carrying around will be let go of like it or not. It all goes away, none of it matters whatsoever from concern for children, parents, the state of the world, your favorite team, jobs, and so on. So why is it being carried around and allowed to weight you down? That's the million dollar question to ask yourself if you are ever to be free, or not and remain attached to the weight of needing life to be a certain way, creating the load of having to make constant adjustments…

Delusional Reality

To expose your created delusions, why they're being created needs to be understood. If this understanding doesn't occur the delusions remain as your reality which in turn makes your life delusional…

The way the base of your thoughts are formulated determines if you see what actually occurs in life or if life becomes the made up reality of the formulated thoughts. Because of the lack of clarity of truth in most peoples lives, this creates two realities occurring at the same. One is what is actually occurring and the other is your thoughts of what's occurring. The more unaware a person is of this the more their thoughts make up a delusional story of life instead of living a life of what's actually occurring.

If this is how you’re living it makes for a very unproductive existence because a made up life is being lived; when this is done your entire existence is delusional. It's like a magic trick, no matter how real it seems it's not. To expose what makes a delusion seem real and how the trick is done needs to be understood. It's the same with our life, to expose the created delusions, why it's being created needs to be seen. If this understanding doesn't occur the delusion remains as your reality.

Thoughts are the base of all delusions because without the belief of something (thought) it's impossible for the delusion to exist. All delusions start with a thought that it‘s real, but the thought isn't what's actually occurring so two realities are happening at the same time; one is created (the thought) and one just is. The one you live your life by determines if it's based in what's actually occurring or if you're living a life of delusions created by the Conditioned Mind. There's living your given life (what is) or there's life made up. It can be a delusional creation of your thoughts or it can be the reality of what is. There are always two realities to choose from, to expose the delusional one why it's created needs to be understood. If this doesn't occur the delusions remain as reality which in turn makes life a delusion…

Steadfast Light

When there’s awareness that all opinions are a made up story, contentment takes their place. This contentment is a steadfast light and it’s always there, but it’s not experienced because of the stories that blocks it...

Without opinions everyone would view life through the light of contentment which by the way is a light of peace; because of opinions the light isn’t seen. The view of opinions are made up by the energy of unconsciousness, this makes everything that happens in life seen through the unawareness of your made up story. Through this view what is true is missed; this makes life about nothing in particular except the opinions that’s are formed by the Conditioned Mind.

Opinions are what makes the mind attach to thoughts and those attachments are the cause of the unaware thoughts that control your life. What’s factually happening is this, life just happens it’s not personal, it’s not about anything you think it is. It’s not about right, wrong, love, hate, good or bad, it‘s mostly about learning to understand your minds true nature of quietness and not being lead around by your made up story, whatever you happen to make them. When there’s awareness of this you’ll truly be content. This is a contentment that’s always been there in the steadfast light, but it was never experienced because of your opinions not allowing you to see it...

Lack of Love Void

Creating a void is due to the misunderstanding of what love is. If you fill the void with the things of the world it will never be filled. If you fill the void with love for others it will never exist…

This came to me the other day, I had a void in my life that always needed to be filled. I didn't know this at the time, but it was the absence of love that created this void. This is a very simplistic yet profound explanation of the underlying nature of this void. Without love this void is the cause of every dysfunctional behavior in life. It makes you view life from the material realm and the void cannot be filled from this realm. It uses whatever it can to be filled, and until it’s filled with love you will keep searching to fill it. This is why dysfunctional behavior manifest because when your view is from the material realm it’s self-serving and isn't based in love. You will use whatever you become conditioned to use. You will even use a false concept of love to fill this void.

This viewed is developed because you think your answer to fill the void is in the form of some object. Nothing this void is filled with is lasting because whatever you use is limited. Think about this, any object that you use from the material world has a limit to it. Nothing of this world will last forever, except eternal love. So how can the void be filled forever with anything materiel? Any object used is limited so the amount of time the void is filled will be limited. It will never stay filled for long unless it’s filled with love…

Completeness Balance

The realm of the spirit is usually what’s missing when there’s incompleteness in your life. Without the spirit all you have is the physical and intellect and they’re not enough for life to be balanced and thus complete…

Life consist of three facets that are needed for it to be balanced, physical, intellect, and spiritual. For most of my life only two of these were utilized, the physical and the intellect. This lack of the third facet led to much confusion and suffering. This is what is lacking in far to many lives today. Sometimes something happens to open this third facet, but for many people it doesn’t seem as though it ever occurs. There’s so much pull against the spiritual that nothing short of a modern day miracle will bring it to the forefront of one’s life.

It isn’t that some have this spirituality and others don’t, we all are spiritual beings by nature, but some are more aware of this and that’s what the third facet allows, awareness. So much has been put in place to keep people unaware of this, but because it’s our true nature, we do seek it, but we don’t understand what we are truly seeking. Since the seeking itself is part physical the spiritual is very difficult to see. The physical is relied on way to much. You cannot find a spiritual solution when using physical tools. Spirituality manifest when we are aligned with the physical and the intellect. The song by Meatloaf says two out of three ain’t bad, but not in this case.

Our world is out of balance because our human instincts are out of balance. We need all three facets to be in sync with the Universe. When we live in balance with all three facets, we are complete. If one is missing, we are out of balance. If two are missing, we are in trouble, our life will not have any balance and all kinds of nonsense arises. To live life in this way is dangerous to all those involved because it’s unstable. We are like a time bomb waiting for our fuse to be activated.

This is the state of many and unless one is living in balance with the physical, intellect, and spiritual, there will be problems in life and there will be unnecessary suffering; this is basic life 101. No one facet can be left out if we are to live a life of completeness. One will still be alive without all three, but life will not be balanced and it will never feel like it’s complete. This will cause you to keep searching for the very thing you already possesses, completeness. So please live in balance with the instincts you possess and remember you’re complete just the way you are, you just have to have balance to be aware of it…

Non Factual Feelings

Feelings will arise, they’re part of being human so to feel is human, but taking them to the next level to form a concept is when attachment arises and the feeling takes control…

If it's not learned that feelings aren’t factual they will control you. This is because of the conditioned mind that wants to grab hold of the feeling. How this works is, let's say someone walks up to you and says something that you don't particularly don’t agree with, immediately there's attachment as there's the feeling of not agreeing with what is said. Where there's attachment, you will react the way you always react when someone says something that's not agreed with. This is done again and again because of the conditioning in place. Someone says something you don't agree with and you wind up saying something back to them. What you do is take their dissatisfaction and make it your own and throw your dissatisfaction back at them. Now basically you are at war.

Feelings aren't right or wrong, there's very little facts as to why they arise. The main thing is to allow their energy to remain free flowing so it doesn't get bottled up and form a conditioned concept. These concepts are formed by attachment to mind patterns that change a simple feeling into a story; the story being you don’t agree with what’s happening. The story isn’t true nor is the feeling, but that's what the conditioned energy does, it makes you believe a feeling is factual. This is conditional energy that wants to grab hold of a feeling when it arises because it doesn't understand there isn’t any true right or wrong, there’s just what's there and you don't have to allow the feeling to control you…
