Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady
Our discussion is not partisan or an academic or scientific thesis, medical diagnosis, prognosis, philosophy, prescription, discipline, or treatment. Based on experience we do not propose or oppose any person, place, or thing: real or imagined - nor is our discourse promoting rituals or any religious service.
Listening is a demonstration of interest and not a replacement for taking direction from responsible parties you rely on or are under the care of including professionals.
Consideration is a contemplative awakened meditation. An Absolute State of Knowing Awareness is simple as it does not change. To think thoughts can change nature’s essence is a mistake we are free to make. Mental disorders like anxious disorders reflect this mis-formed, misinformed thinking. Shrinking from rather than facing backward choices increases their dramatic impact. Insisting on resisting mental effects creates pressure that is depressing - insuring they persist.
We Know We Know and are Aware We are Aware. There is no wrong, fight, fear, lies, ego or insanity in Truth as Reality. Our natural Essence is essential and how we know so well when something’s wrong. Anxiety is stress from thoughts under pressure. Pain is evidence something’s wrong. Trying to feel better about or get over reactive, impulsive or compulsive urges makes matters worse. Obsessive thoughts are sick choices we can think condemn us. Choices are the will to want. The right to freely think does not make what we think right. Like them or not consequences reflect our thoughts as a mirror reflects images.
Talking and thinking to our thoughts creates more thoughts thinking of themselves - not our self. Thinking defines what we think not who or what we are. Choices to think are actions we take, something we do. We cannot be what we do even while imagining thoughts are true and create “our own” reality.
To any degree untrue thoughts are believed true we lie and manifest unhealthy, ill-at-ease, inner-conflicted emotional turmoil. Lies effects will appear to happen to us whenever we irresponsibly act like we have nothing to do with them. Feeling lonely is an accurate assessment of disconnected, baseless thinking. To think we have no choice is the suicidal death wish there is nothing we can do about them - as though we don’t exist. To create a cause and deny the effect is how the vicious mental cycle of obsessive thoughts - central to all symptomatic addictions as compulsive behaviors - chronically restarts.
I'm no Einstein, but Albert was and along with many other notables he said: “You cannot fix a problem with the same thinking that created it.”
Symptomatic recovery does not cure the obsessive mental illness - it clears the looking glass so the problem can be seen. Emotional sobriety is sane living. Wrong as wrong is right. Resting in Peace on earth does not require we first be buried in it.
Little, if any, belief, faith, hope, or trust in what is Absolute is required since any reliance on the stability of Reality is confirmed as applied now. Awe and inspiration are the actualization and realization that all that is possible is happening here, now, for all that is and all that are - always in all ways.
Thoughts naturally align with our knowing awareness even while the obsession to pretend, they won’t and don’t, seems to consume our thinking’s attention. Stability like serenity is assured to express the abundance of our essential loving essence. This assurance remains even when we feel lost in tangled thoughts thinking otherwise. Think about That.
Knowing’s nature is Absolute - it is neither negotiable, occasional or optional.
There is no doubt where there is no question.
Sanity is the natural human state of thought as a product of Truth as Reality.
Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady
MOD LXI
We will not Zoom In or Out the last two Sundays of December.
MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate stability of our Present State of Knowing Awareness along with the unstable impressions manifest by ever-changing obsessive thoughts.
Sobriety is recovery from the insanity of symptomatic compulsive behaviors.
Emotional sobriety is sane living. Honestly facing the induced nature of insanity’s haunting sensations dissolve.
Thinking is not inherently obsessive. Emotions inherit the chaos and commotion of obsessive thoughts.
It is what we each do with what we see and hear that determines our experience. If we can makes things worse we can get better, at expressing our Being nature.
NOTICE, CONSIDER, IMAGINE:
We are human having a spiritual experience - or we are spiritual having a human experience. Make a choice and notice what occurs. If a sense of stability and curious awareness develops then living with the decision may be warranted and right. If the lingering results have you feel gripped with conflict, instability, and a tendency to want to "feel better“, "make it right”, or feel stuck or disconnected these conditions are centered in how thinking is used. These conditions can be high or low grade and like viruses persist beyond any welcome.
Stability makes mental instability obvious. Feeling out of sorts, out of place, disconnected, or alone would never occur if our human experience was not stable and aware, at least at its rooted source, that we are always as we are, when and where we are - here and now.
Consider these thoughts:
You are as we all are - always where and when we are: Here Now.
The moment is always new so it never gets old. All possibility is always possible. Done is over and done. The past is nothing more than a thought. The Present is the culmination of all that has ever happened. To fix the past is to reckon with the present. This is the same for the seeming future as it is only imagined. Once the future is present. like the past was, it is no longer there and then but here and now. To take imagination so seriously as to think fantasy is reality - is insanity.
There is no possibility of insight developed by ignoring that which is in sight - That rather than what is happening.
Sub-stance is fundamental to all life-forms as under-standing is the basis for expressin
We Know We Know.
We Are Aware We Are Aware.
We Are as We Are.
Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse the Law and order of the universe. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and so contribute to any ailments. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment leading to others as long as it is improperly diagnosed - any treatment will perpetuate its contagion.
Principles affirm our indivisible nature. Sharing principles affirms and confirms our indivisibility as our nature. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is a choice.
Absolute Intelligence, Peace and Silence is Nature's nature since It does not change. The nature of nature is naturally our nature. Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible jibbersh of ignorance - not reality.
