Spirituality: Total Liberation

 

If you're not the thinker, then who are you? The thoughts that you're having? Only if you identify yourself with those thoughts. Or the feelings that you're having? Are you the feeling? Some people believe they are [it.] 
 
You might choose to identify yourself with resentment, for example, or any other type of negative sentiment. Therefore, you become entangled in that emotion and your consciousness merges with it. Unless you learn how to separate yourself from the thoughts that you're having or from any unpleasant emotion or state of mind, you can not liberate yourself from suffering. 
 
You'll always live the same dysfunctional pattern, over and over again, until you might start to lose your mind or become depressed. The way out of emotional pain is the dimension of inner stillness — the totality of your consciousness that goes beyond the mind. 
 
When you begin to see that inner light of yours, you gradually learn to differentiate between your true identity and the content of your mind. It is an astounding realization!

Here's what Eckhart Tolle has to say about addiction: Every addiction arises from an unconscious refusal to face and move through your own pain. Every addiction starts with pain and ends with pain. Whatever the substance you are addic...

Write Without A Goal

It may not appear to be a great approach to writing, but when you're not trying to force things or bring an element of perfectionism to your writing style, you'll soon write like a pro. I always tell myself to let the mind take over when I'm writing, without adding useless layers to it. It's all about writing without limitations. I noticed that when I'm not plagued by the grip of writing in a perfect manner, I can write clearly. And that should be my goal — to form various ideas without having the need to impress anyone, not even myself. Patience has its importance; you wait as long as it takes until you come up with a beautiful sentence.
