Being in the world.
26 July 2006
You can radically change your 'sense of being in the world'. You can recondition your mind. You may presently sense yourself as an individual ego suffering in limited time and space - an insignificant and petty agent in this world of dust. This can change to a sense of being in a non egoic state with horizons in the infinite and the eternal where there is the fearless peace that passes all understanding; where 'you' are a manifestation of the cosmic agent (in an angelic rather than devilish way!)
Note:
- Only 'you' can change your mind at this level (although a role model, well established guidelines, and like minded company can provide support and encouragement)
- Your mind has to become mindful of its nature and procedures ('be still and know' - guidelines are available from the wisdom traditions)
Mindfulness leads to awareness of, and freedom from, the causes and conditions that create the petty agent. - All minds are already cosmic agents but the petty agent acts as a veil. The task is simply to remove the veil.
- All that is needed is vision and effort.
- Some people are more ready to change than others - but it is an open possibility for us all.
