Hello everyone Beautiful morning. ....All are getting up but. ..WAKE UP NOW. ... THOUGHTFUL TUESDAY MORNING WITH JOY AND HAPPINESS π π π π π π. ... Read it , its very interesting. Mind to No Mind : Understanding Meditation Read this conversation. At the end, you might get an idea what it feels like. My Mind. And I. A conversation. Mind: I tried to achieve X, but I didnt succeed. Please feel bad. Me: No, I wont Mind: No? What do you mean by that? Me: It means I wont feel bad. Mind: It doesnt work that way. When there is a difference in what I expect to happen, and what actually happens you are supposed to feel bad. Or angry, or dejected, or regretful. And when what I expect to happen happens, you are supposed to be elated. Me: That indeed is one way to look at it. Mind: It is the only way to look at it. Me: Suit yourself Mind: Dude, you dont get it! If I say something you follow suit. You cant tell me to do whatever suits me while you stand around looking at me. Me: Why not. Ill watch you and enjoy the show. Mind: How can you watch me. Who are you anyway to watch me? Me: I am, well, I. Mind: But I thought I was I Me: I dont want to get too philosophical, but you keep changing every hour, every moment. Which I are you, then? Mind: Well, I am the sum total of all the changes and thoughts that pass through me Me: The sum total changes incrementally with every passing moment. It is not a consistent identity. Mind: Are you consistent? Me: Yes. Mind: How? Me: I am the viewer of the changes you make every moment. I dont change. I just watch you change. Mind: Ah...I see. It is just one of my tricks. You are just a part of me trying to fool me in thinking that you are separate from me. I see how I am capable of doing that to myself. Gotcha! Me: Oops. You got me. You win. Mind: I knew it. My rationality, intellect and analysis nailed you. Me: I see that. Mind: Ok, so back to the point. Please feel bad like you are supposed to Me: Why supposed to? Mind: That is how it always works. If you dont feel bad, or good, its just a trick you are playing with me. You are fooling yourself. Me: If I do feel bad or good depending on your contents, how do I know that isnt a trick you have been playing with me? Mind: All right smarty pants, enough. Get back in line and do as I say. I have had enough lessons in philosophy in college and I dont want any more of it right now. You talk like I do, you sound like I do, so you are a part of me. In reality you cannot be separate from me to be able to watch me. Me: Yes, to talk to you I have been leveraging the same verbal center of the brain that you use. That is why I sound like you. Mind: That verbal center is mine! Even the visual center. I also have the Intellect, the Analysis, the Words, the Visuals, Art, Expectations, Pride, Grief, Sadness, Fear. What do you have? Me: Well, I have nothing. I am just the Silent Consciousness. The mother, if you will, of everything you have. Mind: Without what I have you do not exist. Me: I do. Mind: Ok, stop accessing the verbal centres, the visual centres, the intellect, the analysis, the words, the expectations, the forecasts, the pleasure and the grief, and then see if you exist without them. Me: Let me warn you that is a dangerous request. The moment I do that you will cease. But I will survive. Mind: We will see about that. Me: (quiet) 5 minutes pass Mind: You there? Me: (quiet) 10 minutes pass Mind: Alright lets talk about something else. The boss sucks, isnt it? The place is full of jokers. The batman movie was not so nice this time around. Time flies aint it? Flies like the birds in the mountains. Gosh, wasnt it nice when we went hiking last year? Those blue skies that day, sigh! That girls blue skirt was so short, remember?. Wonder who makes those denim skirts. Levis is just so overpriced. Man, are you listening or not? Me: (quiet) 20 minutes Mind: Ok, lets go for a smoke. Lets burn some anger out. Me: (quiet) Mind: You are killing me! Im getting tired of this shit if you dont respond. 30 minutes Mind: If you dont react, I dont have anything to show you or talk to you about. Im going to take a break myself. Me: (quiet) Mind: Yawn... 45 minutes later Me: Mind, wake up. Time to order the body to do some life affirming stuff. Mind: Huh!? Whoa? What? Where am I? 45 minutes? When did that happen? Me: Dont ask me. I dont keep track of time. You do. Mind: Where was I all this while? Me: You rested. You ceased. Mind: And you? Me: I was watching you sleep. Mind: How do you know you didnt cease? Me: Because I saw you looking for me, trying to talk to me. I remember watching you go to sleep. Then I woke you up. But not vice versa. I never went away. Mind: Yeah? How did it feel watching me sleep? Me: Exhilarating. Blissful. Now get in line, and do as I say.....S.D
