The Mind



The mind is a great tool, when it is used properly. Most often than not though, we allow our minds to control us. We live our lives through the mind believing what it thinks, is who we are. Until the day we become conscious and realize that our life situation, or The Matrix if you'd like to call it that, is not our life. Because we are not the mind, we are a soul. 

The only way to truly break free of the mind, is to live in the present moment, and ignore the negative thoughts and feelings to consume us. Let the ego die, and eventually your life is going to change because you no longer just live in the Matrix, but the real world as well. 

Once you are living in between these two worlds, than you are experiencing true happiness, and good things, amazing experiences are just drawn to you. Your energy becomes a magnet, and you attract good things to you. 

But, how do I quiet my mind?

Once you realize you are the soul, the I am, you become consciously aware. Once you are aware you can observe the thoughts that pop into your mind. Once you can observe your thoughts, you will notice there is a space between each thought. The present moment if you will. Focus on that empty space and nothing else. The negative thoughts are there, you are aware of them and you accept them, but you no longer are allowing them to control you, to consume you. You are no longer living through the mind. 

You have to find that space, and you have to accept that you are thinking this or feeling this, but you don't have to be this, you are a soul, and all your soul says is I am. Just be, and live in the present moment, and you will find balance, inner peace, and true happiness. 

Think about it like this, if you are arguing with someone, negative thoughts about the situation or that person pop into your head. An unconscious person allows those thought patterns to take control. These thought patterns get them angrier and angrier feeding the situation, and causing drama, and that's what the ego wants. 

During that same argument a conscious person is going to have these thoughts too, but the difference is though they accept the thought, they don't allow it to have effect on them. They let the thought go remaining calm in the situation. 

Another example of this is if a "friend" leaves your life for whatever reason. An unconscious person will think non-stop about that person and what they did. The more they think the angrier and more vengeful they become. They constantly complain to others about what the other has done, they "attack" the person, or "chase" the person, and their actions continue this pattern stirring up unnecessary drama.  While a conscious person accepts what is, walks away and remains happy. 

When you no longer allow your mind and your feelings to control you, you become. 

You are being your true self, the I am. 




To do this, you have to remember that you are not the mind, you are a soul. You need to live in the present, and remember that for a soul, time doesn't exist. Time only exists in the mind. You need to be able to let go of the past. 

Don't allow memories and past feelings to affect you. Your past isn't what defines you, if you dwell on the past, you are missing out on so much life. Because life isn't in the past, life is happening right now. 

You also need to remember that the future doesn't exist. Stop yourself from thinking about the future. Worrying or thinking things will be "better when..". Stop waiting! Tomorrow never comes, because it's always now. Stop waiting for things to come your way, make them happen today! 

Take action, because the only thing that is stopping from these things happening is you!

The Mask

Image
  When we remember that we are a soul, we take off the "mask" for the first time. When we take off the mask is when we can tell the difference between reality and illusion. The "real" world and "the matrix". In the illusion, we are our thoughts, feelings, and personalities. We think that's all we are and our soul remains trapped beneath the illusion. Only when we become aware, and notice that you do think, can you be granted the ability to break free of the illusion.  Once we break free, we learn once we take off the mask, that we still need to wear the mask. We still need to play the part, only know your soul is in charge of the mind instead of the other way around. But, how do you live in "the matrix", when you know it's a lie? It's not a lie, not really either. You came here to have experiences, and because of that you decided to forget who you are, so that part of your experience would be to remember. Your life situation, is your ...

Just Live

Image
  Knowing now that you actually a soul experiencing life, you should just live. Why worry about the past? Sure, you have had difficult events and obstacles in your life which had caused you pain. Maybe something in your current situation triggers that pain. Yet, why worry and dwell about your past experiences? What good does it do? Nothing. In fact by dwelling on the past, you are making the choice to relive your pain over and over again. Nothing will change if you are continuously looking back. How can you expect to move forward when you can't let go of that pain.  Let it go! Live in the now, just be present. Be aware of the things going on around you, and know that these amazing experiences are happening. By just being you, and living in the now, you'll feel a sense of inner peace. When you feel that, hold onto it, embrace it, and never forget to live. It is very important that you continue to live your best life, continue to have experiences and though there will be bad tim...

Mission vs Choice

Image
Once you've realized you are a soul, an awareness, or consciousness. You become aware of your thoughts, you know your e truth, but now you must find a way to express it. Do you have a choice? Of course, we always have a choice. This is not your life's mission, there is no such thing. This is a choice your soul makes in hopes to wake others to the truth.  Yet, many people believe in missions, they believe we've came here to do something, and they spend their entire lives trying to figure out the mission and how to go about doing it. I'm here to remind you, that there is no mission. We all came here with a choice to forget who we are in order to have experiences we could only dream of before. That's it, that is our mission to live through experience and remembering who we are.  After you remember who you are you can choose to do nothing and live your life or you can choose to help others find out who they are. Take myself for example, it is not my mission to run this ...
