The enemy, wants to radically unsettle you, Jesus, wants to radically unsettle you... its a beautiful enemy, a friend. Radically, unsettle, radically, how much? To the point that I am ashamed of my closedness? RADICALLY... to the point that it shows that I have always been DEAD eacch and everytime I refuse the slightest chance to exist? RADICAL!!!! MOARRR!! (now thats radical), how many times have you been close to killing yourself because of this unsettlement? (well Ive been close to getting kicked out of college... and I have in fact), NO! more raDICAL!... HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU BEEN CLOSE TO KILLING YOURSELF!!! Well, once or twice, one was accidental, the other was kind of an accident too, and the third, well yea, I guess you can say it was an accident. More radical,!
Now there is a state, I need to find, where i am free, and all are friends again... grrr
So I am trying to pay attention to the quiet noises, as I play the string on the guitar,, like my friend told me.., and I hear something and I stop the string, and it stops, I wonder hpow this works how do I pay attention to these, how do I induce to hear them? I thinbk I have to put the sound in myself, with my mind, use my imagination to place it there, so that my attention goes to that place, then when I hear it I observe, it seems like it, next string, I hear something and I stop the string and its still there, I think its part of the fridge noise then,.. I try another string, and I hear something, I stop the string, and its still there, I cant tell if its my imagination or not.. I remember I was trying to do somehting like this before, and because I couldnt tell if something was real or not, I avoided it, I guess I gave no merit to the things that only existed in my head, I guess I thought “what good would that be?” so I avoided it, without comparing it with the idea that the things we imagine are for us to bring them into existence.. maybe just made no connection... anyways so I couldnt tell if this sound was real or not, but since I was actual had a goal in listening to this, (because of skyler told me to, I did not disregard it as before,, I thought: (so this brings up many questions about reality, that our reality is composed of those things that we imagine, by those things that we think are real is what is real to us, and it doesnt matter what we think of, that will be our truth, so everything we imagine is real in one way or another manifests itself in the world for us to see it and to believe it, giving us the thoughts we have, giving us these beliefs, but our world is so infinite that then these other things appear, these other things that our not part of our composition of reality, not part of our truth, then we might and must pay attention to them, if not conjure them with our imagination to expand our world...)
So the things that are most sensitive (so sensitive that they feel like our own imagination) are the ones we should pay attention to the most? Well the point is, that it doesnt matter if their real or not, just pay attention, you may find that they have more truth than words can say... words... the still soft wind...
words, words are not important, we use words to rey and convey an experience, words are only a pathetic attempt, and the imperfections of human language explain why the world is not at peace with each other. Lets not criticize the words, let us look behind them, into the meaning...
soft wind, so what value does our imagination have?, there are too many things going on.. we pay attention to them and then they are real, or they have always been real, if it is true what I have been thinking, the way I have been thinking aobut reality, is that there are facts, and our world depends on the interpretation of these facts,,, so, there are things that we feel (are not the feelings already interpretations? Natural, automatic interpretations from our body? Oohh) so the way we interpret these feeling, (two levels of reality? Oh gosh what do these words mean? How do I explain this, the facts are.... two levels I notice, what causes the feelings, and how our body interprets it and WHY, and how we decide to interpret as we may or may not pay attention to these feelings, and WHY.) So if we pay attention to these feelings, these soft feelings that seem like our own imagination, we get more truth, (these are actual feelings since they are from the sensory input of our own bodies, why would we feel them if they weren’t real?) So these feeling, we learn about our body, whats wrong with it, and how it reacts to certain things, just pay attention to every detail of every limb and cave, and its inputs from the outside world, things that we always ignore, because we are afraid that they may not be real, but they are always there, so letspay attention to what our body says, our body tends to rceive, sense inputs from the outside world, so where does all of these feelings come from and why? What do they mean if not a literal shard of glass inside your skin, what is it really? What is it telling you, if only your imagination, what was put into your imagination for that imaginary shard to be there? Inputs tell us of the outside world, when we think these things are our imagination we ignore them, and we are able to see to sense to feel, but we inhibit ourselves, because we believe that these sensitive inputs do not exist, we are so caught up feeling the most solid and rough inputs that we ignore these, and so we believe, and so we live in a world where there are limits to our understanding, because we have faith in the relality of our limits, the limits of our reality (what we imagine we make it real)................
But my point is that YES its all true, if there was a cat inside a sealed box with a container of cyanide, it would not be waves of possibility to decide if it was dead or alive, there would be Truth, and there is no way that we could deny the Knowledge, but we must realize that we are receiving it. (I dont know howw tthis is real, this would mean that deep down inside we are alive, although we may not seem like it because of how much we deny it,, oh God what am I?). So the point I wanted to make by saying all of this is about the cotrast between to beliefs I have, that Truth of facts exists independent of our perceiving it (though we have access to it), annd that the interpretation of facts (our world and everything we can ever know or think) is only product of our huimanity, our imagination. So maybe its a mix of both like everything seems to turn out, or maybe its superimposed, leading to a dimension “ungraspable” to the human mind. I just didnt think that we could have access to actual Facts, since once we perceive them they become interpretations and a meaning in our minds.. and so this makes me think of the Truth we receive at the most Present moment... and how do we guide our minds (if not by prejudice) to figure out what it wants to figure out, to listen to what we want to know, without our desires getting in the way, but if we want to know something, there is already a desire present, so what DO we want? And how do we guide our minds towards figuring out a certain truth over other countless truths (interpertations). Example, I want to know something without prejudice, I just listen and let it come in, but instead I get other information? I dont think its the information I want (even though it may very well be) but thats the thing, how can it be the information I am looking for, what decides it? Is it that all truths come from a certain idea, that when we get it, its inevitably what we are looking for, this One everpresent idea? So my pointis that , the truth we receive, is only an interpretation of the world, (already prejudice), so we never receive absolute Truth, only what we want to know... what we are concerned about... what is already in us... but how can this desire, this guide be present at the moment when we receive this truth?... What does it mean to be concerned about something? Why do I want things? Is my want really so important that this force would give me an answer? (well you want it, why wouldnt you get it?) What if I am not sure about what I want? What if, deep down inside for some reason, I really dont want that, but I havent come to terms with my not desire? (then it should answer that, if you are really interested in knowing if you really want what you want) What if what I want is only a means to something greater? How come it will solve for me the means but not the answer? (because of my prejudice that I need the means to get to the answer), maybe there is just a state of mind where everytihng I could ever want, is accessible, and if there is a means, it is perceptibly non-existant (because your mind does no input on those “limits” in this state of mind). everything is just like “duh”, there is no strategy, there is no figuring out, its just there. And if you are concerned about something, and if you tap into this state of mind, then you easily find the answer to what you are looking for... hmm, seems to be so. But it all depends, on your hearts deepest desire, do you want sex? Or do you just want physical satisfaction? Or is it that you want to get rid of insecurities? Hohohohold on? If the movement depends on your deepest desire then why would you have to be concerned about figuring out what you really want to find out that you really want it, if by paying attention to the “wind” you are already figuring out what you really want, and you dont have to be concerned about it.
No wait, it is when you are not trying to figure it out, that the information gets to you, so in what way do you have to set your mind to make sure that you get the information? How do you go after something without being concerned about it? And this is what I meant to say, this is what I want to figure out. Now reread the last idea, now that you understand what I am saying.
So if you are not suppose to be concerned about what you are looking for, how will your mind know what to look for? (lose your goal/lose your fear, let it happen). What if it doesnt happen? (then you are still concerned)... This is so confusing, so how do I ask for things in prayer? Why would I ask for anything? (eyes towards God and all other things will be added). But the things that I notice coming is because I give my attention to them, and even though I may not have felt a need before they showed up, I still realize its usefulness, so I still want it in one way or another (really), so what am I aiming for? (not the thing itself for sure). I keep getting this answer, at the point where you dont want any thing, everything is available... because since you are not focused on the cake behind the window, only then you will see that there is a door that leads to it. Interesting,,, get this picture, you desperately want a banana, naturally you take the shortest route, straight to it, but there is a force-field protecting i, because you are focused, concerned about the banana, you wont take the time to explore the rest of the world (which would probably lead you behind the force-field, and this is how it works. Do not be concerned about it (it closes your mind) but keep your eyes open (mind open, aware) of the possibilities... Self-indulgence?, well this is about getting what you want...
So my question is, why do I end up getting information about things I want instead of the meaning of life, or an old man’s address? Because when you receive the things that you where once concerned about, they come alive, and old man’s address would come to you, but you would ignore it, the meaning of life you dont aspire to. So again, am I concerned about it or not? And this reminds me of the beauty of memories (like the salad and the curly hair girl), how when something you dont remember presents itself, you see it as very beautiful, and I think this is why, its purpose is so that when the solution comes, though you are not concerned about it, you will pay attention to it. Maybe...
Hmm, but whenever I think of something, that leads to another that leads to another, it always ends up in somehting I am concerned about, maybe because once I become concerned again, I cant go any further, or maybe because I think about what I want to think about. The informaiton I get, is of what I want, when I dont feel concerned (what I want, when I dont want it... how the hell do I make sense of this?)... open mind, open mind.
So maybe something that I am concerned about, goes into dormant mode (gosh this is becoming less spiritual/philosophical and more of a scientific, “lets get it over with an answer already... so keep mind open, remember this is only an assumption of how the world works) dormant mode, so that when you see something it wakes it up and it is up to you to pay attention, or maybe the way, and reason why it came to you once, it will ocme to you again.. I have no faith with this answer, its like, ok so what? No hope for a better world, only man, only physical, only science.
... So I went to my room to pray, and I feel no God anymore, because of all that I think about has to do with me (of course he is unreachable, when ever you grasp anything, it becomes part of you, you cant graps him), So I dont mind Him not being part of me, but I want to be part of Him, (He will keep that in mind, He tells me), I just wish there was someone that I be more equal with, so I pray to see an angel?... ... but now still, whatever, something is missing. The use of my imagination... I have become closed withuot knowing it, it explains the “scientific” explanation of thought processes. Maybe because I am hungry and I want to eat.. must have no conerns... maybe cuz I must get started on my essay... yea, and so I just want to get it over with, and so I just give an answer... so there, it all makes sense now, what does it mean for something to make sense aanyways? (now your thinking!)
So this morning I was thinking about this one girl and how she is soo freakin HOT, and how I saw her bend over at work yesterday and I just wanted to slide my hand under her crotch, so I started thinking, what if she wanted me too do that... wait I forgot the point of this... oh right, arrange, rearrange, keep shaking for truth, and also, inspiration, encouragement, vulnerability... ok so this morining I started thinking about last night, and I was thinking what if she wanted me too? Yea, what if she was like a totally awesome person and out of nowhere she was my girlfriend! Great! Soo then I started thinking about, gosh I forgot how this lead to what. Anyways, the point is, the more assumptions you come up with (and not just focus on one possible result) then the answer will come in, because thats how it works and the more you deliberate, sooner or later, the right one will shine!!! But u must know how to pay attention. So again, imagination, open mind, looking for signs that wake up the answer in my mind... by theory, practice is coming along... swimmingly. And the “inspiration, encouragement, vulnerability” talk I did yesterday...
Think about authentic expressions...
Yes I want to be transparent, but I have inhibitions, because there exist people who misread, my expressions... and so my mind is closed to this.
So in an open mind, everything feels like “duhness” second nature. So how do I open? Unconcerned... remember the radical? Its because u realize that u are alive.
