It always seems as if the “mind” is the root cause of all suffering, but in truth it’s not, the mind is just the mind, and it’s doing what minds are supposed to do. The purpose of a mind is to keep you focused in the physical reality, that you are a part of. Without […]
The thoughts moving in the space of your consciousness have a “pulling” power (because thoughts are just forms of consciousness, and everything conscious has the power of “attraction”). A thought can strengthen itself, and become dense, when you give attention to it, or when you bestow “interest” in it. Remember that who you are is […]
There’s a big difference between “letting go” of the Ego and “getting rid” of the Ego. When you are letting go of the Ego it’s a movement free of struggle and has a sense of “compassion” or love at the background. But when you try to get rid of the Ego, there’s an energy of […]
The biggest resistance towards allowing your well-being to unfold is the feeling of unworthiness. The “Ego”, or the “Me” sense, is bound to feel unworthy, or inferior, from time to time because its very structure is based on a “shaky” foundation. The Ego derives its identity from thought forms (self image based thoughts), and object […]
The only practice, or “non practice”, that may be helpful during the process of letting go is the practice of just sitting in a state of “no doing”. If you practice this for an hour everyday it will slowly, but surely, release all the “conflicting” energies in you and move you into alignment with life. […]
It’s not just about letting go of the Ego or the sense of self, but about letting go of all “effort”. Letting go involves moving into a state of a total ease and flow, where you are moved by the force life itself, which does not feel like effort but a joyous action. When you […]
Letting go does not need any technique, it just needs a willingness to let go of your personal will and the need to make “effort”. You have to become completely “effortless”, and totally relaxed, to be in a state of a complete surrender. If anything needs to be “really” done, life will move the body […]
You must learn to trust life to start letting go into its flow. Remember that this body that you take to be “personal” was actually created through the intention of life to express itself uniquely through this form. The body belongs to life and it will be recycled back by life. When the “mind” takes […]
You can imagine life to be a fast moving stream that is constantly in motion, never ending and eternal. Life, as I define it here, is the physical manifestation, into different forms, of the one formless consciousness. Life is constantly changing, taking new forms and recycling the old ones – nothing is lost or gained […]
Only the “Ego” gets hurt. If you are feeling hurt, and in pain, right now, you may feel angered to read that the part in you that’s feeling hurt is actually a “false self”. I am sorry, but I am a truth guy not a “feel good” guy. I am interested in seeing the truth […]
The human form that is reading these words was created by life force and is sustained by the same force. In truth, there is no distinction between who you are and life, it’s one and the same, but you may notice that there’s a part in you that seems to be against life, it’s fearful […]
Your emotions are your guidance of whether you are in alignment with life or are in a place of discord. Whenever you feel “bad”, it’s an indication that at that moment you are thinking, or doing, something that is not in alignment with your true nature. Usually it’s never the doing that’s the problem, it’s […]
Some minds can be highly obsessed with fearful thoughts to the extent of becoming intolerable. Most people who possess such minds take medications, drugs or alcohol in a bid to find some relief from its incessant noise. If you are among the people who are in possession of a mind obsessed with negativity and fear, […]
The inspiration to write this article came from a comment by Cihan on one of my previous writings “How to slow down thoughts”. Thanks Cihan. Many people who are on the path of liberation often practice the technique of “Staying in the Now” or staying present. It’s important to understand that this practice is meant […]
Are you constantly bombarded with thoughts that create feelings of stress, anxiety, worry, nervousness, jealousy, limitedness, or inferiority? Whether you are conscious of it or not, the fact remains that you are attracting these thoughts in your mind. You can blame your life situation, and circumstances, as much as you want but the truth still […]
Unless you know who you are “originally”, you can never really accept the conditioned expression of your physical extension (the body) completely. Who you are originally is “pure consciousness” or “pure positive energy”, which can also be called unconditioned intelligence or spirit. To think that you are this body is a limiting delusion which not […]
According to a particular study it was seen that close to 99% percent of the thoughts, in a human mind, tend to be repetitive, with just 1% space left for any original or new thought, if at all. The reason thoughts become repetitive is because of the law of attraction that gets activated each time […]
You can never really be yourself unless you are completely free of the story that the mind keeps spinning about who you are. True expression of consciousness, in the form of this body, can only flower through in the absence of limitations created by the story in the mind. When consciousness is trapped in the […]
The mind can understand the truth, but that’s only the starting point. It’s not enough to just get a conceptual understanding of the truth. Even the deepest insights come and go, and if they don’t create a movement within you to start letting go of the personal will, then they have not served any real […]
The “mind” here means the tyranny of thoughts that pull you about and create feelings of fear (stress, jealousy, anxiety, worry etc). Liberation, or freedom, in its true sense is to be free of being pulled in by thoughts. The mind is a very powerful tool but it becomes a huge hindrance to our well-being […]
Lack is an interpretation in the mind, a perception, and fortunately it’s a “lie” or false interpretation. There is no lack in life because it is everything and has the capacity to manifest anything. The one being, or life, enjoys coming into form for the joy of it. Life does not take form because it’s […]
In our culture we are conditioned to believe that our highest endeavor should be the “pursuit of happiness”. Anyone who’s willing to be “awake” can see that this has been the recipe for all suffering. There have been wars fought in the pursuit of happiness. People struggle through their whole life hoping to achieve happiness […]
You cannot know what silence is if there was no noise. So the noise is essential for silence to know itself. In the same way, the ‘formless’ one consciousness takes ‘form’ in order to know itself. Negative thoughts, or the rampant voices in your head, are nothing but subtle “forms” that arise in the space […]
All human beings inherently want to be in a state which is free of stress, anxiety and struggle. There is a deep knowing within us that life is supposed to be good, it’s supposed be joyful, peaceful and loving. However, our day to day experiences seem to indicate otherwise in that there are always things […]
