SHACK 219 SKITTISH AND FICKLE

viadurini

The ego mind, that is the mind separated from the ‘mind of The Universe’ and is almost all of its life at odds with the Cosmos and its intension's and certainly is skittish and fickle.

The ego agenda is amazingly adaptable and is capable of endless computations and combinations. It is a wonderful impersonator, mimic and confidence trickster. This is because at the every depth of its being it really does know that is merely a collection of pixel storage a DVD and CD hologram programme like apparatus and a sort of animated simulation which appears real and solid with a full emotional hype and yet in reality is just a hologram and therefore a see through illusion. In order to convince itself of reality and sureness it asserts itself seeking applause and praise from wherever it can, especially from itself.

Because of its inherent frailty and fragility it has to justify and shore itself up with an arsenal of defense and attack strategies and it is a master of guise, disguise and deception even using weakens and ‘the poor me helpless act’ using vulnerability to attract attention and for using others. Then there is bullying antagonistic angry raw aggression. There is much more to say, its best to leave it there and not fuel the ego with ideas to compute and manipulate.   

One maybe so besotted and bemused by the antics of this splinter, this chard of supposed reality and not realize that it is not the real you and the seduction so complete that it takes up residence and becomes a tenant of one’s body and mind, a kind of parasite that causes an infection, a mind virus a living energy being, an invader of the self, which has been glossed over and then carries on its nefarious business with intricacies and connivances and is lost in its own agenda and mind set and the every thought of another mind set, especially ‘the no –mind’ which is classed as insanity and a severe mental illness and enlightenment is seen as with oriental empty mind as lunacy and yet when some sort of empty mind is experienced it appears to be almost devoid of reactive thought, and is calm, joyful and for no reason at all, just for its own sake, it loves without emotion which is compassion because that is its essential nature.

This cannot be achieved by discipline in a way, accept to say by observation without intention, not even reminding oneself ‘I must be aware and not judge’ although reminders maybe needed at first ( there is catch reminding oneself to be aware---does this not constitute a discipline, a habit in formation?) yes in a way it does, however there comes an experience gathered by observation and real deep intuition (not false impulse) that the witness, the observer is the real you and that all else is merely graphics of the ego computer and projector played onto the screen of mind.

The mind may seem to be empty, the observer is in the gap vacated by the habit of internal dialogue and chatter, one realises that the ‘empty’ mind is invisible, silent and thoughts arise or rather are there which are delivered not through thinking and logic, although these do have their place. Because one is the mind of reality there in no need to think, it just is there without effort and is not prompted by a topic or any other ego depiction.

Experiencing this ‘silent thought’ has a different signature, feel and quality and is unique creative and original, it is right action in the right timing and is not reactive.  It awakens one to ‘thoughts beyond thoughts’ and transcends understanding, it does not need the sanction of the ego and stands alone, it is empirical.
