Fixation Creates Negativity
Even spiritual fixation is ugly.
We see this in others, but not in our own mind.
🙂
A fixated mind loses flexibility under the slightest pressure, and is unable to adapt to life’s little challenges.
Clinging to negative thoughts, past grievances and limiting beliefs prevents personal growth and inner peace.
Living without purpose or understanding of our true nature, we are easily agitated by circumstances, and lose composure and inner calm during interactions with others.
Failing to see goodness around us, we dwell in pointless self-indulgence.
Uncomfortable, isn’t it?
How to unfix our fixations:
Simply, gently, generously, patiently, be aware of being uptight (although this is just part of human existence :D). Negativity is all in the mind, and has no reality. People are just people, and don’t know their enlightened essence. They aren’t out to annoy you – they cannot help themselves.
This realisation is part of the process to enlightenment.
If we don’t bother to look, we stay as we are – unenlightened and grumpy 🙂
