When the mind is in charge

What your life looks like when your mind is in charge

If you bring something into this moment that doesn’t belong there it’s earth shattering, it’s like an earthquake.  If the flapping of the wings of the butterfly changes the weather patterns all the way across the continent in another country how much more shattering are the useless conversations people engage in?  Life is ok until people open their mouths.  People really think they are smart when they try to solve problems.  The mind makes up problems, that’s the only thing the mind is good at.  When I have an agenda for this moment my life looks like the desert; there is no abundance nor beauty because the mind sees only lack and ugliness.   

A still mind is the greatest beauty there is because then you can see the beauty and abundance that’s everywhere and the perfection that’s in everything.  The outside is the reflection of the inside.  What you focus on gets strengthened.  Stillness has no problems.  Before I interact with the world I sit in stillness until all the ripples have dissipated and have no effect on me, so that the ripples of the world can’t create havoc in my life.

When the mind is still there is only beauty and abundance

Going deeper into the illusion

Energy works circular.  That's why we always come full circle.  The same old problems seem to creep up but each time at a notch higher.  That's what happened to me.  I am back in an environment I thought I left for good almost 6 years ago.  I had to go back.  If I didn't I would go deeper into the illusion.  I now have the insight to see the illusion for what it is.

When we run from the present moment we go deeper into the illusion, thus creating problems.  In the present moment there are no problems.  The present moment takes care of everything.  

 

Stillness

Society wants me to behave like a dog in heat, out of control, always running. With the introduction of cell phones even more so.   Society is into speed.  They are fast but not vast.  Their fastness slows them down, whereas their vastness would speed them up.

With cell phones people can talk about their problems anytime, anyplace with their friends.  Stillness is a creative power.  Everything is energy.  The moment I speak this vast energy becomes dense and I now have created a problem for myself and it has to show up in my life.  I have made it real.  When people keep discussing their problems they are not solving anything, they are putting a boat anchor on it thus anchoring it into their lives.  Just be still and it will resolve itself because you are not giving it a chance to show up in the physical.

The truth about the mind

The mind is trained to make up problems and than solve them, keeping you forever stuck in your head.  When you walk down the stairs you cannot fix breakfast and when you are sitting at the table you cannot shop for groceries.  Yet, your body sits at the table but in your head you are doing the grocery shopping.  You are always thinking about what needs to be done.  Such waste of energy.

Stillness aligns me with what is supposed to show up, it is a creative force.  When we talk about what is going to happen we change the energy, make it more dense, which makes it extremely difficult to move this dense energy.  When we are still the energy is fluid and things happen in an instant. 

When we prepare we slow down the process and prepare for the wrong thing, for something the mind thinks needs to be prepared for. 

People are blindly turning their lives over to their minds.  You have no idea of the consequences.   This knowledge comes through awareness and experience.  Instead of listening to your mind observe your body.  The body is always in the present moment and knows what needs to be done.  The body is intelligent and the mind is retarded, insane, ridged.  Life is simple when the mind is not in charge. 

Preparing

When we prepare we are responsible and when we don’t prepare we are procrastinating.  That's what gets drilled into us.  It isn't working that way anymore.  I can't prepare for anything and that makes me irresponsible according to society. 

The mind makes up problems that don’t exist and than solves them.  That’s how the mind keeps its existence.  

People are being played like a ping pong never noticing that they are at the mercy of their mind.   The mind says: “If you don’t do ‘this’ now, you wont have ‘that’ later,” and people listen.   Getting away from that philosophy seems like murder.  I find when I prepare I end up having to redo everything.  So I learned to pay attention to the moment and that prepares me for whatever shows up down the road.  This moment prepares me for the next.

The transition has not been easy.  The mental body puts so much angst into me....what if.  Trust comes with awareness and experience. 

  

The matrix, the illusion, the dream

My life is making my mind sick.  My mind can’t handle my life.  I am living outside the illusion, outside the dream, outside the matrix.  My mind is being stretched to its limits.

Every day you force yourself to live inside the illusion and you wonder why you are sick.  And you expect God to help you with your problems.  You are expecting God to function inside the dream thus reinforcing the illusion.  God does not support us in our illusion.

True non-resistance is the ability not to expect God to function in the dream.  This does not mean that one lives without God, but rather, one finds his life to be eternally in God      Joel Goldsmith ‘The Infinite Way’
