DAMNED BY DISTRACTIONS
Damned By Distractions We are damned by distractions. This is why we meditate – to recognise that we are the clarity of consciousness. Distraction: A thing that prevents someone from concentrating. Distraction: A disturbance, intrusion, interference, obstruction, hindrance. Distraction: Amusement, entertainment, diversion, pastime, recreation, hobby, game, leisure pursuit. Distraction: Bewilderment, befuddlement, perplexity, confusion, disturbance, agitation. We do not have to be … Continue reading
THERE IS ONLY ONE ANSWER
There Is Only One Answer There is only one answer:Pure consciousness. There is only one question:What distracts pure consciousness?

WHEN THE MIND BECOMES STILL
When The Mind Becomes Still When the mind becomes still and silent,everything is different. We are no longer obsessed,relating to memories and judgements. We merely observe distractionsthat try to disturb inner peace. A clear view is maintained,by just noting reactions. … Continue reading
LITTLE INNOCUOUS IDEAS

CONSCIOUSNESS CANNOT BE TAUGHT
Consciousness Cannot Be Taught It can only be pointed out (that’s if it’s actually pointed out) and then realised. Consciousness is what we are. Why is this naturally-occurring consciousness so dressed up and ritualised? We, as humans, are fascinated by … Continue reading
THE DARK AGE OF SOCIAL ENGINEERING
The Dark Age Of Social Engineering ‘The guiding hand’ Where do our ideas come from? We can all be accused of racism and intolerance, but what is behind the recent speed of change in demographics? Of course, people will react. … Continue reading
INNER AND OUTER DEMONIC ACTIVITY
Inner And Outer Demonic Activity Demonic activity is anything that creates obstacles. This is especially relevant to spiritual practitioners as subtle distractions take attention away from our path to liberation, and back to the mundane. How often do we just … Continue reading
DISTRACTION IS A TWO-EDGED SWORD
Distraction is a two-edged sword. The mind is more sensitive than we think, and this is why we get so distracted day in, day out. The world around us is one huge distraction: the tiniest occurrence and we are caught … Continue reading
