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.

MOD LXIV
MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts.
if we are the agents of change that choose conflicted thoughts then we can easily get better by relying on and expressing the nature of our essence rather than ideas that are not true. Obsessive thoughts are not an accident or a curse - they are choices - and like all addictive behaviors they seem to happen to us to justify the irresponsibility of thinking we have nothing to do with them and thus can do nothing about them. Managing insanity wrongly presumes there is actually something to manage. This unmanageability is out-of-control having nothing to control but a wrong thought imagined right and real.
Any insistence to maintain conflicted thoughts appears to impose itself on us. To claim we have nothing to do with it mirrors the claim there is nothing we can do about it. These conclusions are lies furthering the contention that any wrong thought will one day be right - just never today - where we are and exist.
Responsibility, Freedom, and Choice are fundamental principles of mental health. There are no victims or insanity in reality. As Sentient Beings sensitivity is intelligence so we cannot be too smart for our own good - though we can dumb our experience down by narrowing the focus of our awareness to conclude the nature of truth as reality is only as limited as what we think.
Sobriety is recovery from symptomatic addictions induced by imagining fantasy is reality. Reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors all fit into this category as they are based on a lie that lies have the power to become reality. Reality as an Infinite Source cannot be more or less than it is since it is not a quantity but the quality of perfect peace.
Emotional sobriety is sane living. Essence can seem unseen until understanding sees it does not need to be thought of to be essential for existence. We Know more than we think or mental anguish would be a normal disturbance and not feel uneasy. Pain tells us something is wrong. To misread this to mean run faster to escape, get over it, or feel better about it is to insist the problem causing the pain persists.
Thinking correctly allows thoughts to express reality rather than realize their maladaptive potential. We do not need nor can we be the creators of reality to accomplish this. For pilots proper attitude allows them to maintain altitude and avoid a crash landing. Our experience
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 our Universe's Essence. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment. For as long as it is misdiagnosed - any cure or treatment will perpetuate its contagion.
Principles affirm Our indivisible nature. Sharing Principles confirms our natural indivisibility. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is an unnatural choice to oppose reality
Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible jibbersh of ignorance - not reality.
