The mind, as a function of consciousness is designed to find objects know the mind
"What is wanted is to know the real and the mind does not satisfy that requirement.
assume that the functioning of the mind, to express thoughts sorted, we give you the answers, but those thoughts are sorted based on the structure that we have set. "R. Malak
Al know the mind and let go of interpretive error, understanding is shown as a flash, a glow that shines on its own, revealing reality.
This
week I've been absorbed in the development of a new mode of expression. It's a real enjoyment, entertaining, making this video. Sometimes reading can not fully grasp the meaning of what is said. Pictures, music, voice ... there are many tools at our disposal to communicate through this medium. Here is the first of these videos, which as planned will be 9 in total.
We've been talking this morning and R. Malak me via chat, as we do every time we have available, driven by a passion to make this understanding it accessible. And in fact, is what has enriched my life in recent years, this has been settled more and more ... precious ... deliciously. It all begins with a text that he placed on Facebook yesterday and last night and were talking to last night, where the fatigue was stronger and had to postpone some conclusions to temporarily close the issue because there is never the last word on these issues ... and this is what we are back today.
"For most life is complex and full of conflict, often in chaos and disorder. Each day there are new and more diverse needs resetting jail. It is the mind that causes delusion, it generates a data stream ... displayed on the screen of consciousness concealing our true nature. But the instrument is more sophisticated than we have. The mind as a function of consciousness is designed to find objects, the greatest difficulty that it is also a builder of wants and needs.
In these times the simplicity of life has been dissolved by new and more sophisticated habits and lifestyles. With attention turning out live covered by the shadow of the mind, unable to distinguish the way out of conflict. The various routes open to scholars say let out of the confusion. Of these practices and theories mentioned meditation, reflection, spiritual exercises, prayers, etc.. There are others who have to mind as nonexistent, it is certain that his work is not independent, making the ways of knowing.
The conflict increases when intended by knowing the real rationality. You can not know the source through the intellect, there is no way to understand the essentials. The mind is structured to meet attributes, conditions, forms, dimensions, the duality in general. Meet the absence or presence, you can not know the knower. Experiencing that presence is consciousness, one might say that is a state of happiness, or rather is what sustains all states.
The best advice to know what is real from himself to know the function of the mind, thus being better able to avoid confusion. The mind is the shadow of consciousness, if there is light of consciousness is impossible that the walk can not be interrupted, like what to do, what you did, what are you going to do next. In summary, Make it an activity of the mind. "R. Malak
newly awakened this morning, I began to write:
Our eyes are open to the world an initial condition of silence, of unity, not differences. Pass the film under the gaze perception. Start function that is achieved apply or associate sounds, symbols, concepts, what is perceived ... language appears. Memory begins to accumulate experiences and memories interpreted ... gradually saturates this look that was free, with partial ideas, trials and assessments. So there comes a time when life begins to live only through the interpretation and conceptual thinking.
Realize is an initial spark, pure consciousness, and in an extremely subtle interpretation occurs immediately. A conscious perception immediately adds conceptual ability, as a way of capturing the meaning interpreted, with this we define our preferences. It is like putting together a house of cards the whole structure of life interpreted and projected future design of what we experience, that we do not wish rule.
The mind is a function of consciousness can grasp the experience and turn it into memory with a particular meaning assigned to it. Labeling will experience. Is used for this comparison ... which was a good feeling, placidity, is to repeat and which caused contractions, suffering, want to reject. It is a protection mechanism of the instrument, the body and identity, the ego.
then shared it for the Chat:
R. Malak: If .... so .... wrote as Maria Luisa
: Realize a
is immediately converted into concept ... and not be able to distinguish the initial awareness of the experience, the subsequent interpretation of it is done ... to be confusing to realize the idea of \u200b\u200bsomething we have experienced recently.
R. Malak: Yes, it's what I call "subjectivise life." Maria Luisa
: This is how you condition the initial fullness is becoming a constraining river swings between desire and fear. We were looking through the concepts of life that we have devised, this is to look through the mind. Forget our be essential nature of consciousness and stayed attached to the identity that has formed in our imagination.
R. Malak: Yes, the name replaces the rose pink ... and attributed her beauty concept replaces the quality of astonishment ... and feel pleasant ... is replaced by the aroma of subjectivities identificatory. Maria Luisa
: Of course. The problem that immediately concerns us is that we live a world of relationships and communication, which usually gives priority to language.
And the main thing to communicate is the language today, we can not overlook the diversity and the world where we appear to be in these relationships ... not just a look from eye to eye for communication ... mime or gesture.
R. Malak: is that diversity and differences are not overlooked in this quality of view from the non-dual, but the roll is in the ideology of them. Maria Luisa
: What I mean is that the language is still necessary and there's the whole point.
R. Malak: What is
Maria Luisa : ... it is very easy to go from a concept to name something ... attachment and the need to be right.
Back to home is simply recover the look that is before thinking, and understand how This function of the mind, the ability to make vital concepts perceptions, which is experienced, lived, living ... is a function that aims reason life. Just giving more importance to the rational that what is alive. It is feared the pain and seeks pleasure ... and this is natural for survival, but becomes confused in control of what you want to live, to be consistent with the ideologies of life that have been implemented.
R. Malak: If so
Maria Luisa : You get to give conceptual vital ego, identity, as if it consisted survive.
R. Malak: is the identification sick with ego ... it is feared that if not protected will be destroyed ... and thus life. Maria Luisa
: Exactly and that is the crux of the matter
R. Malak: When one abandons the fear of facing it ... and mechanism of the mind that is delivering alert messages consistently and repeatedly, at that moment the mind stops its automation and allows it to be seen from the eyes and consciousness (before that is impossible)
Maria Luisa : yeah, no fear
R. Malak: Not that allow or not allow ... (The bad), but the mind, which is not independent of consciousness, let your automated ... both in intellect as active and moving ...
Maria Luisa : Yes, but the question is ... How can you leave your machine?
R. Malak: mind ... is not independent of consciousness, there is the key.
observation without trial ... "Stopped the automatic
Maria Luisa: I would say that confronted with the truth, heard or read ... again and again ... comes a time when the same reason is given to the obvious
R. Malak:
noooo reason is another automatic process
emotion is another automatic process
action is another automatic process
all of the mind
Maria Luisa : wait ... understand what I say ... comes the reason ... The delivery mind
R. Malak: not the reason ... is the consciousness that takes over
Maria Luisa : Exactly, that's what I say ... the reason is left of consciousness ... consciousness takes over
R. Malak: yes, that ... if
Maria Luisa : why I say ... comes the reason ... to awareness, understanding. You see before automation.
R. Malak: to be more precise ... intellective qualities ... whether they reason, intellect ... deduction, logic, etc ... all processes of the mind, highly specialized ... are in one way or another automatic and conditioned.
And conscience, to take care of them, proceed with intelligence ... since it is a factor of conscience:
management taking
Maria Luisa : self takes over, but the same free and identification,
identification is a product of conditioning
R. Malak : The self is the self ... or consciousness in motion
Maria Luisa : exactly, the ability or skill wise, all those skills you mentioned mental intelligence ... are inherent in the human manifestation as
R. Malak: no differentiations in consciousness, which is beyond space and time ... and any description is what the Hindus call
Parabrahman Maria Luisa : well ... This is even more important that the first thing we mention, it is recognized in the pristine source prior to any movement
R. Malak: but we are only on the qualities of mind, or the self back out
Maria Luisa : if ... is that this is what you can attempt to verify the beginning ... When someone starts to not want to suffer, you must first lose the fear of seeing these automated systems, to know the mind, knowing that he puts labels function to realize and know that has multiple modes of operation. Then ... to experience the look prior to any trial ... is grasped intuitively that no real movement from which everything is known ... it's like going to take steps backward.
R. Malak: If, after learning about the mind, qualities and states.
before it is plowed into the sea
Maria Luisa : Exactly the opposite of what the search engines assume that is going to take steps forward ... Nothing to add ... but rather could be subtracted
R. Malak: I see it as follows ... the guy is in a foreign country .... The China for example. Unknown customs ... unknown language, unknown people ... the ways, habits ... the dress ... food, all is ignored. Maria Luisa
: if
R. Malak: So when you do not know the mind
is not known for their products
not know the thoughts
not know the structure
not know the constraints that drive the thinking of a way or the other.
is ignorant is exposed ... forces that move from here to there
Maria Luisa: And just that you say of a baby who still does not know the structures of the social world that begins to live?
know ... I'm realizing that the baby, and is protected (your body, your life) by the parents ... can live the fullness of innocence, which then add up the ways it structured to move in society and be self-valent.
The problem is later, when attached to the modes of the structure he learned to use
R. Malak: live in the world .... of duality ... ignoring their origin
Maria Luisa : automatically learning a ... that does not support other forms ... that's how you separate the warring societies and enter
But ... also the case that comes to this life ...
acquired tendencies passions ... subconscious desires ... they bid to stay afloat ... for example ... some are dominant and others dominated, some serve to guide and others for guidance. The plot is complex conforms to the individual in a family ... out different characters between the brothers, even if the education received is the same
R. Malak: Yes it is. Everything is explained in this way ...
Explains ... but not enough ... is necessary for everyone to live ... the question ... from the self ... if it is not just a theory. Maria Luisa
: we are tapping a kind of journey back from the evening look at automatic mind you do not know ... to the origin of that mind, a source that is our essence, consciousness itself that supports the work of the mind. And not only that ... but the whole complex range of emotional and character drives, passions emerge looking through every speech. Power
view, in a friendly and aware, to avoid being drawn into the shadows,
but walking on his own and in any case that the shadow will follow you.
R. Malak: if
Maria
Luisa , and even beyond this life to walk ... is the one who wishes to recognize its essence as the only wish ... recognized as the Parabrahman,
all ... that is no longer the least bit worried or how to proceed to move the statement.
R. Malak: This map .... should be explaining step by step.
This is like the instruction guide that comes with electronic products, you have to go page by page reading ... and moving process by process. Failure to do so ...
people feel extremely confused ...
and may not leave the maze ... by not well read the output map.
Most power the device and not explained why you can not know what the matter since ignored instructions
Maria Luisa: If
R. Malak: confused by follow the last instruction, begin to read the Readiness to learn how to gather the letters of the kinder garden ... and then they want to do ....
atomic bomb
Maria Luisa: I'm clear what you say ... is very serious
R. Malak: If I wanted to be very accurate ... say ...
Meet mind ... and you're on the verge of carrying voice, but still have to cross the threshold.
Maria Luisa : How well ... beautiful ... is very accurate:)
Later someone asked: Ask, "CROSSING THE THRESHOLD IS GIVEN OR IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE TO DO TO CROSS?
To this I replied:
Malak I asked what he meant by that and told me that everything done is of the mind and that "cross the threshold" is a poetic way of referring to what is beyond phenomenal, that is, recognize your real nature.
last week and are the memories of yesterday lived two concepts as they dance before my eyes: Understanding. Understand. So start giving a breakdown of meaning.
understand, and reasoning ability to organize around a theme.
understand, and realizing it, become one with the object of attention.
Understanding requires
know the meaning of concepts and at what point.
Understanding implies empathy with some aspect or issue without having to build an argument about it.
The understanding allows dissect an issue and make a lot of words, descriptions, inferences and reasoning.
Understanding can remain silent simply embracing a situation, a stillness that comprises, includes notes without trial.
Understanding is linear. The understanding places no limits.
The understanding can reach a point when it comes to deep questions about the reality of being, which fails to set the tone on the sacred infinitude of the Divine. And then you may be going transcends understanding, the realization of the ineffable and indescribable. Understanding can occur in an instant, like a flash, without a rational process and not rely on memory products.
In my conversations with R. Malak, and are consistent and regular basis and converted into a practice Daily, I often like walking a tightrope.
Like two opposing samurai swordsmen or sharpening the dagger of self-knowledge, he is concerned with moving from side to side to achieve the balance that allows you to walk with ease on the tightrope of the expression of the essential. As can be seen in the specification that I just about these two concepts, comprehend and understand, "I'm fascinated by words and use them to convey something deep inside me moves. In this "turn to" ... look inside, listen to what is covered and content, latent, wanting to be lighting. Ideas flit, feelings, memories, impressions and emotions that are stained with them and need to be dropped, released, expressed.
What makes a volcano? Dump all their fiery contents. It can be fascinating to watch from afar a rash, but is devastating if you're at his side. And that's how I noticed that my face many times burn the wings of the birds that try to take their first flight near me. This worried me, and observing the ability of R. Malak, I'm finding some fascinating ways that can accommodate that is just opening the eyes, dazzle with some lights directly ahead of time, which can burn your retinas.
But something happens to me in these discussions. And not in terms of skills on the outside or the expression ... but about the very understanding. The linearity of thought can form an endless wire, as if a fisherman's line is infinite. Catch a fish, a concept, some way, and the line gets caught in it, and then stretched and stretched, tensions the cord may be enduring. There comes a time when discerning sound, which produces a blurring strain, because after all, the intention of catching the fish Truth, is unable to do so. The attention is engaged, and despite a lot of insight, understanding does not occur, and what happens is a wear and dulling. Drop the cane hurts so carefully has worked, when faced with the impossibility of so much pretension to Embrace the Truth with reason. The leaves dulling the senses, reason, and all capacity for empathy, as void, is a prison, a hypnotic situation where communication soon becomes impossible.
... ... ... ... ... ... ...
some ancient sages have said that the discernment Goldthorn serves to remove the thorn wood ignorance itself, but once this is done, removed the initial confusion, we must release both bones, and therefore have no use or meaning.
Another analogy with regard to use of a wooden stick to stir the embers. In the fire of understanding, to keep it alive, we use the rational discrimination suit, but once consumed the coals, the stick is released in burning them to finish.
... ... ... ... ...
Many search for years a clearly offering the certainty of what can be called as true, which is totally real. Behind studies, practices, teachers, lectures, and yet having perhaps arrived at maturity, hanging like a fruit tree diversity has not been charged enough this fruit to fall to the floor of the longed-understanding.
For these fruits on condition of softness, sweetness, and proper maturity, it's sat guru, and gives them the bite where finally the last lock to the confusion is annihilated. Satguru, the Sanskrit word for pure knowledge of Himself, whether in the form of teacher as outsider, or as either the own knowledge of Himself which rises in the candidate who is ready to release the last crust or skin : the idea of \u200b\u200bseparate self.
... ... ... ... ... ....
answer, with complete detachment of the cherished concepts, given the conceptual vacuum in the silent embrace of understanding, vertigo occurs as a delicacy, release and letting go into lit expansion of a diluted mind. Exquisite display of pure knowledge, which knows nothing of himself. As the wave that made its way into the ocean water was provided. Some waves gently dissolve, others burst at the edge of the limits, beyond repair.
As sleep happens without one it proposed, state of absolute rest, where nothing is known ... also happens to delivering essential knowledge. Liberation and total relief of all stress, that no state where there is only knowledge, not something, but as the absolute brightness of the power that allows us to know. A witnessing that was always there, shining all conscious contents, such as a flashlight in the darkness of a deposit is marking and highlighting all that is stored. The mind darkens, shade the whole produced the dual contrasts.
Yesterday Malak I described it as a window or a mirror. A window with clear glass, you can observe the diversity of the exterior, the street, landscape, people who pass through the pedestrian walkway. This glass, suddenly faced with a sudden situation of total introspection, it becomes a mirror, and when night falls and no one can grasp the content of external world, the senses are only for internal content. This mind, as a window of knowledge, shimmers, allowing the glow of light that comes from within, and reflects only my own image: light of knowledge ... and there ... it absorbs all the movement that was variable in reality permanent to be what we know , dissolved the image, dissolved the duality, not a separate entity, but the very light of pure knowledge, as Being-Consciousness dump complete happiness.
What I am writing today is the result of a deep soft interaction (which moved many contents of my understanding) lived in three hours Sunday with R. Malak talks given at different times day, and it was with this text that closed the busy day Malak:
" My ways are not theoretical descriptions fatten the mind, are foods that are to be consumed immediately, may not be combined, resemble the consuming fire, unstable and difficult to understand. Gather information seems important, but is in the books, there are thousands of them very well written. The words plant seeds that one day sprout in various plants producing flowers and fruits different, but it takes time, and it is time to cut the joints with the conceptual structures that keep us trapped and imprisoned ideas. The Self is different from that mentioned as you or me. The mind, as a function of consciousness, divides, makes judgments. All as manifestations is the only existence, this is a knowledge which he consumes read. The mind is complicated by reflections about the indescribable, and has no other choice of mirrors and stop being transparent to the gaze of Himself. When this occurs beyond their own boundaries and is lost in the light that is reflected in an endless harmony and intelligence. "R. Malak.
spent the night, the new day, and everything is crystal displays. After being placed on the grill of the penetrating inquiry, my dear concepts are cooked over low heat, and out of my hands, delivered, given, released today ... and I have resumed with another provision, a lighter open, loose for share this very exciting it is, first understand and then be pure understanding.
I made many trips and met many amazing places in this world. Caribbean beaches, towns and metropolitan cities exceedingly primitive splendor. Mountains, valleys, rivers, rain, snow, desert ... but lately I greatly enjoy the tranquility of being at home and make a case becomes exciting only to the extent that means going back to meet with the family. The geography of the planet is really wonderful, and when I get some pps with beautiful images, both natural and landscape works majestic architecture, I love to creativity and created no further need to look at the pictures and evoke the beauty in myself.
The world is vast and infinite as not to show their treasures, and yet, like a magic trick, our view of it can change and sometimes appear as something terrible, that threatens us. Both geography and the actions of men are both givers of beauty and horror. Just imagine to prove it, a hurricane or earthquake, a popular revolt or advancing troops, blue crystal beach or humanitarian relief efforts. Contrasts that have been around since I can remember.
This makes me see the world as we know, as the total set of territories, countries, peoples and societies on the planet's geography, there are two simultaneous movements, both in constant change and transformation.
- nature movement : The geography, natural world, biological, chemical, from stones, plants, animals to the closest thing is our body.
- The movement of men history to be putting together step by step with actions of individuals and social groups.
For some, regardless of world events and natural or historical interpret or how good or terrible, personal life in today's comfortable and even generous in abundance. For others it is full of problems, deficiencies and situations risk.
In a world that moves in both natural and historical, are constant hazards, and as a means of forecasting for the protection of life, body and our extended families or social, will forming structures, ideologies, and mindsets that are shared are the social collective. With one look a little sketchy, even to illustrate, note that while each individual with particular needs to fit into the ideological machinery, is participatory and not precede its own survival to that of others, being the partner as a bee in her hive, social group moves in line and prepared for contingencies. But when there is competition for power and dominance, is when societies live under the subjugation of the strongest and most powerful, undermining many expressive possibilities that are always potentially in humans. Hence the personal or collective ego can go from being a positive and creative tool to be destructive and producer of unhappiness and conflict.
There conditions given and shown as inevitable and there views that we can see, using a sensitive alertness, which are optional. If we review these issues in depth, it is possible to realize it yourself. This is a scheme that has helped show me what I see in this regard.
Conditions
conditions force us to live (interact) the world in a certain way.
geographical conditions How is the natural situation in the environment. Are you in a situation where survival is possible or is at risk of life?
social condition, education, cultural, economic and political:
the country or town where born, the family that we grow, the society in which we move, the education they receive, the prevailing culture, economic or political situation of the moment, if we have been loved or rejected, that shape the individual and is determined.
Physical Condition: A healthy body or genetic defects, or problems due to disease, accident or natural decay by age.
psychological condition: In this affects the genetic and acquired characteristics from birth, or affect or traumatic psychic impressions that are not covered by the person marking.
Under the conditions of formation of beliefs, morals, habits. It is forming a personality and mentality.
The view relates to the mood or attitude toward the given conditions.
The view is directly dependent on how or how much is involved understanding the facts and beliefs that are held, whether there is ability to see the events and conditions in an impartial manner, allowing the emergence of intelligence look essential or filtered through the mind is structured. The emotional and dependent relationship with structures, ideologies, projections and all that has shaped the mental conditioning to life, directly affects the enjoyment of happiness or suffering to the frustration.
The things we are forced. Situations and will give everyone the will to live. Usually we are sure that many natural and historical events are completely beyond our control or responsibility. However, many others we own, we become responsible, the load on the shoulders, either as fault or merit. In any case, the situations are, and once given, are as they are. It must live them, like it or not. For some, a situation can be beneficial, while the same can be harmful to others. Depends on how you judge if it is to benefit or disadvantage.
The world is in constant motion and change, whether by nature or by history of events. Nothing remains intact. In this sense, trying to maintain stable, fixed structures that we have accepted about life, as ideologies, it is counterproductive when it no longer fit with the given natural conditions. It is common sense, which is not as abundant indeed, to see how fair any idea, and see how it affects our relationship with the facts. Find happiness what is changing and transitional, offers satisfying moments certainly, but is subject to traffic to happen in every situation, this happiness and not find its raison d'etre. A joy throughout the changing sustained suffering happens.
The river of life that is based on the satisfaction of the ideals, in their affections, in achieving goals, obtaining resources, the knowledge, a vacation or a trip , has two sides: the pleasure and pain.
The feeling and interpretation of my situation and how I feel: happy or unhappy, full or miserable, depending on how I live I take as a burden or not. Apart from what is the immediate situation for me, maybe the way I feel vary much depending on my expectations or disappointments either the present situation, the past or the future that I imagine and hope.
The interpretation of events is not really in the hands of the person when it is driven by the conditions, that is, conditioned by the acquired views and wishes. This is directly related to the beliefs that have shaped their view of life, and the ability to understand things as they are and the reality of being or not involved in them.
The world and life, as considered external events, we want to move ... and we like it or not. At the same time, internal developments, which are abundant in the richness of the psyche, which also often move in a circular, unexplored and misunderstood. This is the movement of the desires that drive us to do, based on our intimate images of expectations or blame. When these movements, external and internal - agree there is no conflict and no conflict, no peace or happiness. When the movement of world and life does not match the desire, there is frustration, conflict and suffering.
reflect and look closely at it I certainly recognize that every human being, the primary need, apart from the natural obligation to ensure their survival, is the fullness. Call it happiness, love and peace ... that is what we all want, what we have in mind or not, that's what motivates all seeking in life.
sublime desire Against this common to all the conditions are given and supported structures, which are as varied as the people there, and show also varied desires. These desires make proposals that are little costumes that distract from the real purpose that drives us always, fullness, and deceive us into believing that the achievement of certain goals find happiness as a product. Conditioning, which initially might have the intention of protecting, it becomes a situation that confuses and mesmerizes when we consider the practical aspect of all learning, experience, structure or acquisition, to become an end in itself.
Happiness is not a product that is sought, if so would be as impermanent as everything in this world. On the other hand, discover that happiness is our real nature that is displayed every time there is total understanding and acceptance of a given, with everything that composes it, both in appearance and in the roots that have generated, thus ending the conflict, is the gateway to begin to see and understand clearly, free of hypnosis produced by the mind that judges. It is when he suddenly discovers the background in mind that we dare to call true fulfillment. The right to be aware.
