Looking In On The Mind

When looking in on the mind, two things occur; one is seeing mind’s activity, and the other is the observation of this activity in the mind.

The observation cannot be identified or found as it is pure awareness, which is what we are. The supreme peak that sees.

If, however, we call it ‘me’, ‘self’, ‘observer’ or ‘universal mind’, a duality is created that identifies, attaches and relates to outer and inner comings and goings. This is the ordinary existence of sentient beings, who are governed by judgements of likes, dislikes and indifference.

We call ourselves homo sapiens – wise beings.
But are we wise?
Clever yes, but without wisdom.

Wisdom comes from the realisation that all sentient beings are, in essence, pure awareness – their happy place – and not these emotionally charged quick-to-judge beings.

We see atrocities happening in the world,
but do we see what’s behind it all?

A self-obsessed mind that tries to controls others’ self-obsessed minds.
