"You must first realize the prison of your mind before you can
escape it." – @machavelli7
Would You
like to comment on this quote?
How can you achieve something, if you do not
look at the road?
How can you create something, if you have not
organized your tools?How can you change something, unless you know what?
How can you solve a problem if you do not first look at the problem and accept it and do want to change it?
So the human mind can only be freed from the
confusion of the ego, if the person is willing to look at that confusion.
And thinking and feeling of man, the mind, the
basis of the ego, is a big indescribable confusion.A big indescribable variation of thoughts, feelings, associations, memories, opinions, judgments, knowledge, prejudices and desires.
And the ego is experiencing it as the whole truth.
But that is not the case, just a bit.
Only when man is seeing he is living in this
confusion then there is a possibility of escaping.
Then he starts to see how oppressive it is, how
limiting, how small.Then he will experience how he is living in a prison.
How small and restrictive the world is in which he is dwelling.
And when he realizes this, the first step is
made to letting go, to surrender.
The first step towards a broader perspective
than the ego, to prayer if you like, to God.Sighing "not my will be done, but Thy Will" is for sure one of the following steps.
And the ultimate goal is living in truth, living in the Spirit, living in God.
For God’s knowledge is better than the ego’s knowledge.
The ego is thus a prison while God is actually Freedom.
My blessings to you all
