I live in space

99.99% is empty space and only .01% is matter.  But people live as if 99.99% is matter because their fearful minds keep them incredibly busy.  They don't perceive that there is that much space.  They are being pounded by their mind continually.  

The body is always in the present moment but the mind is all over.  There is incongruency, the body and mind aren't lining up and that's why lives are messy.  The mind forces the body to rush around and the body doesn't put up with it and will make you sick.

I always go inside first before I go out.  We were forced to go out first and were never allowed to go inside.  Learning to go inside is painstaking, a ride through hell.  Many people don't know that they have to go inside, its a place they don't trust.  Everything in society is geared to keep us from going inside.

The mind on fire

My mind always comes up with an emergency to pull me out of the present moment. The mind will tell me what to do, when and how to do it. The mind's tricks aren't easily discovered. "You can't sit there and do nothing, you have to get going."  When I am rushing I am on my own, the universe will not support me.  I have to stop and align myself with the universe.  

The other day I was in a hurry to get to my job and I locked myself out. It made me remember that I will always get to where I need to be when I am supposed to be there.

No illusions in my mind and no resistances in my body.  I have to let go of everything including my job and see if I will end up there.  I will get there when I get there.  And no premeditating of what I am going to say.  No more carrying of anything.  I cannot leave the present moment and think that something in the future is more important than what is happening now.  I cannot prepare for the future because it doesn't exist.

Tao Te Ching

38. The Master does nothing,
yet he leaves nothing undone.
The ordinary man is always doing things,
yet many more are left to be done.

48. In pursuit of knowledge,
every day something is added.
In the practice of the Tao,
every day something is dropped.

Less and less do you need to force things,
until finally you arrive at non-action.
When nothing is done,
nothing is left undone.
True mastery can be gained
by letting things go their own way.
It can't be gained by interfering.


74. If you realize that all things change,
there is nothing you will try to hold on to.
If you aren't afraid of dying,
there is nothing you can't achieve.
Trying to control the future
is like trying to take the master carpenter's place.

When you handle the master carpenter's tools,
chances are that you'll cut your hand.

  The  Tao Te Ching written by Lao Tzu, from a translation by S. Mitchell

Force

When you force things you are paying an enormous price and you don’t even realize this.  Today I was granted this truth and it was jaw-dropping.  It causes so much misery but people won’t back off because the drilling factory called school, that mental institution, is all about the mind.  When you listen to your mind the very deeply ingrained collective angst will have you hit the emergency exit called planning and you will end up with the same old life, right back into slavery.  This is not who we are.

When there is no force there is only precision.  

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’

BEING

All effort is ignorance.  Force creates duality.  Unconditional Love is Being Without Condition, allowing everything to be as it is.

Life happens in this moment only.  Do you have the nerve to be here or do you force something into this moment that does not belong in it?  If you wait for what shows up naturally you will always have what you need. 

The universe blinks off and on zillions of times each moment, each time creating a brand new universe.  But people put their lives together as close as possible to the previous moment so that it looks familiar, so that they can be safe and bored. 

Stop telling the same old story.  You keep recreating the same things because you can't let go.  Being is scary.  You never know where you may end up.
