Mind is an excuse machine
I feel fear when I want to write this.
Maybe this is my last blog message.
My mind is blocked to form a coherent post
The reasonable mind comes up with excuses to cover for fear. It’s a flight response.
Plato presented that we do not see things as they really are. That we are in a cave and The world is outside that cave.. We see projection, and there is more.
There are two ways to discover. Analytical and Empirical (?What’s the connection with empire ?) Empirical is meditational .
– Besides this message, I feel that when I try to write this message that my mind accesses my linguistic frame of reference to write what I want to write. That accessing is a spirit, an intent . The fact that I can feel that show my current sensitivity in that regard. Which comes from my meditation –
Present yet not
I was meditating this morning in m bed and I felt I was imagining illusions about things. I did not want that. I felt something related to seeing things as they are coming from the back of my head. that happened a few times.
I was riding on my bicycle, It’s dark outside. I was present – In that I was seeing traffic and traffic light -. And I was definitely present in that I noticed that what I was seeing was presented, projected to me. I felt that spirit, intent. And as happened before when I notice things – like a frame of reference instance – My focus shifts to seeing as it is. Which made me feel more present, sharper, brighter.
Other feelings
It’s so easy to be wrong, confused, misguided. With potentially dire consequences.
I noticed I mislabelled. I was about to label, name focus as mind. I but I was not happy about that. I examined it by putting my on mind. I noticed I that put me in rational thinking mode. After that I realized It was really focus that was the right word.
When I put my focus on spiritual travelling – a bit like a vision quest – I feel confident, calm.
