More people need to awaken; to see observation and awareness are key to rise with consciousness. That there is a need to take this more seriously than we do in the current situation.
Most people live thier lives within their mind. An egoic mind as such will in turn use its host by way of preoccupation towards and to the past and future, much to the detriment of ones attention to the HERE and NOW; The only reality where-in Affect can merry Cause.
Therefore: Psychological Time —projecting now to a time point anything but, or longing for the past, muddies the here and now—the average person needs to spend far less time in the past or future, yet used exclusively for practical purposes is just fine. It can be said the majority of problems are fomented in time past and or future. What problem is there in the here and now? Often a prerequisite to problems always seems to have something to do with time, past or future concerns. Remaining present without thinking about concerns emerging out of memory, how then can there be a problem? The problematic is psychological in nature. Should one jump out of the way of an oncoming vehicle it is an instantaneous and instinctive reactionary response to danger, not psychologically speaking, memory images fomenting problems. Again what problem is there here and now? Thought then is the creator of problems for the most part, and then with a different set of thoughts seeks to solve the problems it created in the first place. This supports the case that the egoic mind which seeks to control us all by keeping us attached to past and or future, is slowly driving human-beings insane. Through observation of the mind and awareness of Inner-Being one can free their mind of incessant preoccupation with the past and or projected memory, i. e. future concerns. Thought then, is the problem. Consider that if one is not thinking, an example of which might be playing a favorite sport or taking walks in nature or watching the sunset, all of these can and often do suspend thinking, in just that moment there is peace. One’s mind is stilled, no disturbing thoughts enter to interrupt the peace. Then the egoic mind reenters to push a life scripts narrative, mind patterns and social rolls we all must play to be functional, one’s day to day daily life responsibilities. So how long can the average person suspend thought? With few exceptions one can do so little to not at all. And those who can for the most part have been focused on this for many years. Keep going yet don’t ask why or thinking will intervene.
