Information Influences You and Likely Causes Confusion

Many people says that everything was different and simpler long ago. Thus, is it accurate to write that living life was straightforward 10,000 years ago? Eat or be eaten, live or die were factors of our existence long ago. And, this is still true today. But our modern mindset is much different. What causes the complexity that overshadows our life? Yes, we can refer to many obvious developments such as social, political, overpopulation and poverty aspects that initiate complexity. Were these existence factors different long ago and that is why people say that living life was simpler? Probably not, because these factors were also a part of our daily experiences long ago. Therefore, is it probable that how we react to internal and external information modifies as we continually develop?

Information, in itself is fine when a person is consciously aware. My reference to existence modification suggests that a shift from conscious presence to mind interference causes our difficulties in life.

information

Test this theory on yourself. How do you feel when consciously observing any thought, emotion or situation in a state of non-attachment presence? Does this awareness offer you the freedom to openly observe how you live? Yes, is the obvious answer. On the other hand, what do you sense when you unconsciously attach your state of being to something you experience? This type of behavior usually causes you to have uncontrollable desires, misunderstands and fears. Thus, instead of openly observing thoughts, emotions and actions these behavioral tendencies confuse and manipulate how you live. Likewise, any information that you unconsciously experience, whether past, present or future causes you to misinterpret you sense of self-being. The use of the word information illustrates how mind behavior can influence you in any given moment of unawareness. Continue reading →

Anchor Away It Is Smooth Sailing Ahead

Be truthful to yourself. You often feel a sensation of disorientation relating to how you live life. Thus, you feel confusion. Nevertheless, you still acknowledge an openness and clarity originating from the depth and core of your being. This spaciousness within you is calm and soothing. Your well-being and long-lasting bliss seem so close in such a moment of conscious presence. However, it seems there is always something that prevents you from remaining in the awareness of an unconditional beingness. There is always a thought, emotion, person or situation that interferes and distracts you. A weight grips you tightly and holds you in the shadows of the mind. And, this weight is an anchor that restricts you from moving forward into the light of conscious awareness.

Anchor the Self Within the Presence of Being

The weight of the minds anchor increases throughout life. The burden of this anchor consists of thoughts, emotions, assumptions, labels and even beliefs. But, all of which are only phantoms and thus, illusions of the mind. However, evolution, social development and these repetitive unconscious behavior patterns result in a conditional mind. So, the mind fools you.

Still, you desire conscious enlightenment within the flow of life. Therefore, realize that living life is similar to sailing a boat. And, a well-trimmed sailboat with minimal cargo onboard gives you the opportunity to sail almost anywhere. (Conscious presence without mind detail baggage.) Similarly, the beingness of your person sails best within a virtual domain of unconditional possibilities. Thus, the focus of your presence of being determines how and where you glide within the flow of life. On the other hand, the mind is cautious, selective and resistant. Therefore, it is not uncommon for the mind to repeatedly throw an anchor overboard as it questions and labels everything. Continue reading →

How Is Your Partnership with Life?

You are a manifestation of life energy and the essence of being is ultimately universal. Therefore, do not cling to the mind or the details of our existence in an attempt to experience the conscious nature of being. This being is the isness of living. Do not allow the mind to play its games with you. Life engulfs you as a frequency within a universal flow. Acknowledge the act of being. Realize that you determine the manifestation of this flow through your partnership with life.

partnership

Thus, you are the center of the universe and everything is spiraling outward and inward. You reflect all things such as a shadow that always accompanies the object that casts it. Hence, you are within and without, absolute as one in a state of beingness. Practicing presence is being the isness of presence. The mind does not want to acknowledge the difference between living and a true state of aliveness. Your awareness to the life that is within and surrounding you basically determines how you experience everything. Continue reading →

A Pattern of Deception and Your Role

You live in a tangled web of deception. And, no, I’m not writing about government, media or religious interventions. Nevertheless, this trickery happens to you every day and in more ways than you know. And, the mind is responsible for this dilemma. More accurately written, your unconscious reactions to mind behavior is similar to a snowball rolling down a hill. The snowball rolls faster with each turn and gathers more snow on the way. Likewise, a thought turns into another and another, ever faster and faster. And, what usually happens? Countless thoughts appear from nowhere and overwhelm you. Each thought is more complex than the last. This is a pattern that the majority of people experience each day.

pattern

So, how do you consciously move beyond this behavior pattern? You probably read about spirituality, enlightenment and bliss as you awakening to conscious living, such as this article. That is fine. However, please do not cling to stepping stones on your inner path as necessary in reaching conscious enlightenment. Continue reading →

Social Development and How You Live

Modern social structure development began around 10,000 years ago. Thus, more people were sharing ideas, assumptions and beliefs on a day to day basis. This era possibly increased aspects of our conditioned behavior in reference to the mind dominating our life experience. Searching, assuming and labeling details in our existence dominate our evolution. Additionally, more verbal and written interaction overwhelms our natural conscious awareness of life and our state of presence.

social

And, one primary factor remains constant throughout our personal and social development. We do not acknowledge or accept the essence of living and being. Equally, conformity often results as a by-product of social and personal developmental factors. Still, we innately know that we are here and now. We feel the beingness of our person. Yet, the mind causes interference and we attach our sense of being to these thoughts and feelings. Thus, we mistakenly accept the mind’s misapprehensions to be our true self. Thus, thoughts and feelings about living life consume our conscious presence of being and living. Continue reading →

Words Are Only Signposts to What is Beyond

A rose by any other name would seem so sweet. This excerpt from Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is beneficial in our inquiry into conscious living. However, a word through expressed interpretation or definition of any person, situation or thing limits active presence and conscious expansion. Thus, the brain confuses us through labels that represent a given reality. But, these words are ultimately insignificant to a person that is consciously living in the isness of now.

words

Shakespeare could easily have written a word by any other name would seem so sweet. It is apparent that Shakespeare’s written works share philosophical perception into living life beyond mind generated details. Perhaps, he understood the ultimate futility of any word in labeling something. Let’s consider that words or definitions of anything do not actually change or affect the isness (beingness) of something. A stepping stone to conscious awakening lies within this insight.

Crazy Times and No End in Sight

Let’s have a heart-to-heart conversation about the experience of balance and happiness on a day-to-day basis. Of course, it is so easy to say that the world is crazy. Likewise, everyone usually blames everyone else for the difficulties we encounter. But, I ensure you, that only you are responsible for how you experience life and living. Still, every person carries some type of mental and emotional baggage. Furthermore, people usually carry mental and emotional baggage given to them from family, friends, co-workers and strangers. And, most people are eager to give you some of their mental baggage depending on any given situation with you.

crazy

I can testify to this behavior through personal experiences. Manifesting energy from unconsciously behaving people is manipulative, restrictive and harmful if you are not consciously aware. And, please understand that the majority of people are still very unaware of either consciously or unconsciously living. This means that any given person will attempt to give you his or her mental baggage. Probably, without realizing what they are doing or why. Continue reading →

What Will the Creator Create Today?

A creator is someone who brings something into being. You are the creator of love. Moreover, how you experience the totality of life and how it unfolds is your responsibility. This is ultimately true for everything and how any given object or experience will manifest. Silence, awareness, and consciousness offer endless possibilities that can flow from the dimension of life energy. However, love and life remain a mystery and poets, storytellers, and dreamers will continue to ask the question. What is this wonderful and often bewildering experience?

creator

Firstly, one significant realization is to acknowledge that you exist in love, and life engulfs your being. Therefore, walk each moment hand in hand with life and do not stray from this path. Thus, each step along the way reveals conscious enlightenment. And, both love and life itself are only as true or as real as you choose. Continue reading →

Calculate, Delegate and Consolidate Beyond the Mind

Are we dependent on the mind? And, does the mind have the ability to truly calculate the depth of our conscious interaction with life? Did you answer these questions with a yes? That’s fine if you did. After all, the mind calculates. That is what it does. Therefore, the mind analyses and, in its own interest, tells you to say yes. However, let’s attempt to consciously step beyond the mind. And, in the same moment also be aware that the mind is still there. It sounds confusing but don’t let thoughts manipulate your state of conscious being. Acknowledge that the conditional mind is like a box. Therefore, let’s use the cliché go outside the box. To illustrate conscious presence.

calculate

Indeed! How would it be to live beyond the limitations of the mind. Recognize that it is possible to consciously live and still use the mind. Imagine how it would be to fully live without the mind interfering. Continue reading →

Intelligence Within the Act of Being

Life: What is it? And, where do we find love? These are questions that we always ask. But, our object illusions are primarily responsible for integrating falsehood into our existence. The delusions we have placed on our existence engulf all factors of our experiences. It is not your purpose to define life or love. Instead, simply experience your beingness through awareness to consciousness. In other words, wake up! There is an intelligence within you that innately knows the truth of your being without needing to search.

intelligence

What is this intelligence? Firstly, I ask that you don’t put energy and effort into labeling what I have written. Secondly, this mysterious something within and surrounding you is not supernatural and not a god. Therefore, simply observe the depth of the inner universe as a space that resonates with common sense. However, please do not minimize the depth and magnitude of this inner dimension. And, we should not define the act of this observation from a standpoint of our worldly activities. The common sense within you is of universal proportion and brilliance. And, your true essence flows from a pool of unconditional beingness that is indifferent to mind details and interactions. Continue reading →
