Guest Blog from Geoff Thomson
Know this: a small world, one that offers limitation as
staple, one that is circumvented by fear, one that has
guards of curtail at every exit is not reality - or should
I say it is reality, but just one of a hundred possible
realities.
A small reality is the product of a small under developed
mind.
And also know this: all monsters and mad-men and demons and
demigods and every demiurge, they come from the mind.
The weak body, the shit job, the poor wage and the putrid
future; they come from the mind too.
Bullies, bad men and ugly folk, trace them back and you
will find that they all stem from the mind.
The villain the vicious the vapid and the vainglorious, are
rotten apples that have fallen from the mind tree.
Depression comes from the mind.
So does the vanquished and the hemmed-in and the haggard.
The mind is responsible for all.
Don Juan Matus said that our reality is but a single room
in a house of a hundred rooms and with training we could
learn to access the other 99, in fact with training we
could actually get out of the house.
The 100 realties come from the mind.
The house comes from the mind.
The realities outside the house, they all come from the
mind.
But the mind is controlled by a gargoyle. The gargoyle is
called ego, and ego likes to feast on sense gluttony, it
spoils on food, drink, drugs, pornography, alcohol and
noise! And it thrives on limiting beliefs and doubt and
blame.
And small realities.
It likes small safe realities.
The ego comes from the mind.
So train the mind is the art of austerity and asceticism,
they are the anathema of ego, its harbinger of doom.
Foster perfect moderation, adopt self control and give
birth to integrity.
Build your foundation on famished ego, and build upon your
base large, expansive, palatial realties.
Once you control the mind you become the architect of all
that comes from the mind.
Because….everything comes from the mind.
Be well
