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

The Language of Life Speaks to You

Would you agree that language and communication are beneficial to your interactions in life? Well then, what about life and how you live? Do you feel the sensation of life speaking to you beyond the clutter of your daily existence? The universe is a manifestation of beingness older than life itself and as young as a flower seed that blossoms. The manifestation of your being is an inward and outward flow of energy. Furthermore, communication with the universe and life is ongoing. You interact with life and the presence of your being in each everlasting moment. However, you, I and the majority of people are usually unknowing and mostly unaware of our universal beingness.

language

Life is a frequency. This energy flow and additional frequencies vibrate through objects. This energy manifests and pulsates within the fabric of being. Therefore, let’s consider this universal flow. How do you influence this energy? And, how does it influence you? Please, firstly visualize yourself as the conductor of this power flow. Thus, to know how you influence this energy manifestation is to distinguish how it will influence you. Sounds tricky, but easily understood when you divert your focus from mind and body to the aware presence of being.

There is a resonating whisper that everyone feels and recognizes in the background of all activities. Although each person acknowledges this communication at different and various levels. The essence of being and your unaware or aware presence influence this flowing interaction. Unfortunately, you probably don’t respond that often to this tingling and pure sensation of aware beingness presence.  Instead, the mind distracts you with thoughts and details about existing in a world that seems insane.

Perception of the Mind and How You Live

How do you observe yourself and the world in which you live? Typically, most people live in conformity with mind perception behavior. Perception, conception and eventual formulation are three traits that comprise the structure of your interaction with life. The mind functions according to a type of evolutionary blueprint interwoven with personal and collective experiences. You perceive and then you conceive in conformation with thoughts and emotions. And, this communication with the mind initiates the need for formulation. Simply said. You want and need a plan. Okay, you might be familiar with what I have just written. Nevertheless, this is useful in aligning your focus on difficulties that can manifest if you live strictly from the mind.

perception

In example, your perception occurs as a mental function. This is unavoidable. Thus, perceiving is intuitive. And, this spontaneous behavior is usually conditional. Therefore, the act of perceptual conceiving is misleading during the mind’s attempts to create meaningful representations about how you live. But aware presence alters the flow and depth of your observation during any moment. Still, don’t expect to always live in a state of conscious awareness. It is a process and an inner development that you practice living at any moment during active awareness. Then, the pathway to an unconditional act of self-being naturally manifests before you without guidelines and formulations. Continue reading

Wishing for Paradise Causes Confusion and Denial

The world has become a playground filled with mental and materialistic superficiality. And yes, there are many things that we enjoy as human beings. This encourages us to continue on and want more. Still, deep within we already know that more will never be enough. Thus, we complain. And, frustration overshadows our day to day activities. Furthermore, reaching for more invokes attachment and dependency. Everyone expects more to be waiting for them down the road or just around the next corner. Therefore we seek and wish for a life in paradise. People refer to this behavior as the Tahiti Syndrome.

paradise

Yes, a paradise is within your reach. But, you won’t live in paradise if you use the mind trying to get you there. A deeper awareness of living opens the portal to conscious presence. And, the practice of an unconditional presence of being offers the pure peace you seek. Our experiences are manifestations flowing from frequencies within universal energy. Equally, it is plausible and acceptable to write that we tap into this stream of vibrating energy. And, our use of universal energy either unconsciously or consciously happens in any given moment.

Conceptual Mind Behavior Restricts Aware Presence

Time is such an absurd tool of the mind. And, yet, the majority of people still think and believe that this mind-made conceptual structure defines everything a person experiences. But, let’s travel to another planet somewhere in the universe. Strangely, the developing species of a distant planet would contradict our mathematics and timeline structures. Instead, this alien civilization labels our calculation of one year as one month. Furthermore, what we structure as one month is one day.

conceptual

And, likely, another planet on the other side of the universe would structure conceptual time in a completely different fashion. Thus, it seems likely that everything is a mind structure that depicts illusions that overshadow the presence of being. Therefore, in example, any given person conceives the concept of time as moving very fast. While, another person manifests a timeline that is slow. Neither are accurate or tangible. Nevertheless, the usage of our presence determines how we interact with life. Thus, conceptual mind behavior influences the manifestation of our beingness. Continue reading

The Inner Path Guides You Home

The inner suffering within you slowly manifests over many years in clock time. You smile and you laugh day by day. But, the hidden tears and hurting are obvious due to the inner torment that restricts you. Nevertheless, it is possible for you to discover clarity and even ongoing bliss. Simple conscious awareness is the way to inner serenity. However, you will not find any logic, explanations, silence or calmness in the world around you. Therefore, always gaze within the self to the presence of being. Everything is within you. And, everything manifests outward. How you observe yourself in this life is essential to the process of awakening to aware presence.

inner

Nothing of this world can give you ongoing fulfillment and tranquility. However, conscious awareness unbinds these virtues that originate from the universe within you. Still, you are withdrawn. And, this is understandable because you live solely from the mind. Hopefully, and likely, the anguish you experience day to day will fade. The difficult situations suddenly will become new stepping stones to enlightenment on your inner path. Thus, focus on the realization that your difficulties and confusion result from mind conclusions during your unconscious state of being. Accordingly, the mind imposes the illusions of misery and despair when you are unaware.

The Yellow Brick Road Is a Journey of Illusions

Most people know the story of The Wizard of Oz. Dorothy begins an incredible journey to find her way back home. This path in her life was on yellow brick road of enchantment. Doesn’t this sound familiar? The journey symbolizes a personal and collective conditioning that insists everyone has a path to follow. We have probably all said or heard the following sentences. I need to find my path in life. When speaking about others we say. They still have not found their path in life.

yellow

Furthermore, it is also typical to speak with our children about finding their way in life. Thus, we dictate to our children. Here is an example. You are still lost. You have not yet found your path in life. But, the ramifications of this statement often have a profound and damaging effect on our children. Nevertheless, parents constantly evaluate and criticize their children and the very behavior that they taught them. 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

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

Awaken to the Aware Presence of Being

A conscious awakening will release your hold on the demands and details made by the mind. Therefore, now is the time for you to awaken to the essence of your person and being. This process allows you to live and to be on a compatible frequency with life instead of against it. You can relearn and respond to life without the need to define yourself or control how you live. Thus, you clearly and consciously observe the outcome of your interaction with life.

awaken

You realize that desiring, demanding, and receiving are mind concepts that restrict conscious spaciousness within the act of living. But, still, these concepts and behavior attempt to superimpose themselves onto your life experience. This causes attachment and dependency to insignificant details if you are unaware. Thus, you live life in a type of unconscious sleep that allows you to exist. But. not to freely and openly live life. A behavior pattern of unconscious living is very manipulating and restrictive to conscious evolution. And, the mind narrates stories and assumptions onto your presence of being. Thus, these unconscious patterns of living continue because you misinterpret and believe what the mind tells you.

duality

We Overemphasis the Concepts of Duality

Dualism. We Ponder over it. We like it. And, we resist it. Thus, the result is attachment to our sense of being as separate and opposing in our behavior. Duality was ineluctable after the dawn of our self-consciousness. We began to perceive a self-image structure within our beingness. Dualism became a fundamental factor in our existence. Thus, people witness themselves, the world and universe from a self-contemplation perspectives. Equally, duality became a conceptional foundation for individual and collective development.

duality

But, how did this happen? Might we say that people welcome the concepts of comparison and separation?. Was, or is duality essential to our evolution? This is unlikely. But, I cannot answer this question as either yes or no with confidence. Is dualism necessary for the further development of humankind? Here again I feel it is not possible to answer this question. Instead, let’s first consider a few definitions and aspects of duality / dualism.

– A dual state or quality. The quality or condition of being dual.

– An instance of opposition or contrast between two concepts or two aspects of something; a dualism.
