Hello Seekers
There are two minds every human possesses. The mind that does not know it’s potential and goes about its daily life seeing the world through distortion. This mind sees only what is before it. It seeks the desires of the body, it sees others around it as rivals. It lives with walls up all around it for protection from all the predators it perceives. It does not know itself so it listens to others with their own distortions and so adopts and expands distortion into large edifices of distortion. This is what humanity calls civilization. It fears.
The other mind is the enlightened mind that waits to emerge. It lies waiting in potentiality. It sees in terms of infinity not in terms of the finite. It sees itself as part of the universe, not apart from the universe. It sees itself as the human portion of the Divine. It exists outside of time. It knows it is connected to the Infinite Mind of God. It does not fear anything. It does not see others as rivals. It does not put up walls around itself , but opens the heart in love to the entire creation. Death, it sees an illusion. Life in flesh, it sees as illusion. This mind is wise. It aligns itself with the greater Mind of God and draws higher wisdom to itself. It loves.
Within each human waits the enlightened mind to be discovered by its owner. It sees Oneness not separation. It is the heritage of every human, and it only has to be sought to find. Sometimes we get glimpses of it when we are brave or when we gaze at the stars. The feeling there is something higher, better, finer than what we know. Something that transcends what is seen. If one asks with pure intent to find this transforming mind we will without a doubt be led for the universe has placed it there to be both sought and found. Once found, it provides hope and joy and happiness for the possessor. Nothing can touch it. It cannot be breached. Every situation in life is filtered through either the mind that develops from birth or the enlightened mind. Developing the enlightened mind is not accomplished by following a set of written rules but by submission to that which is greater and more lofty and putting aside the human mind and its thinking processes. Only the humble those not exalting in human thinking will find this mind. None of the haughty can find it. Those who say they already know; know the least, and those who admit they do not know are the ones who find.
