When You Believe in A Psychological Dream

...Then Physical Security Becomes A Nightmare


The physical security is always been sacrificed in an effort to validate any belief, psychologically. For millennium, the human psyche has been in darkness with regard to the act of believing. This psychological phenomenon has not been studied/examined, unbiasedly, by society.

A belief is born of the desire to become something or to go beyond or to overthrow some psychological state that the mind does not like. So it attaches itself to a dream that is preferred over the fact. When life becomes too horrible, out of confusion and fear, the mind seeks refuge in an artificial paradise cocoon – belief, ideal or conclusion . The mind has been conditioned for thousands of years to habitually think that there is safety in projecting the opposite of what is true (that one finds disturbing). The mind has become a reality-editor and sacrifices anyone or anything to that picture of “what I should become”.

The fact is that: all that we are, is based upon emotional or psychological storehouse of memory, which is the totality of repeated psychological hurts. To escape from that emotional insecurity, the mind conjures up a dream that directly opposes that which is a fact or the truth. Then, that hurt projects an artificial-reality that is a contradiction to itself. Then, it lies to itself and says that my invented-reality is the “real thing” and that “what I was” is gone forever, because I DESIRE it to be true, therefore, it is so. The mind must use force in order to make a lie into a so-called “truth”.

The belief mechanism is based upon a psychological center which has divided itself. If the ego were a coin, metaphorically speaking, then one easily see that a coin has two different-looking images. The heads side of the coin has an ideal which states “in God we trust", therefore, this side of our psyche would identify itself to be equated with the “opposite of what is actually true” category. So heads is the illusion of goodness, peace or love. Now then...

The tails side of the psychological coin is a bald eagle, which represents a predator. So if the heads side of the coin appears to be the hero, then tails side would symbolize the villain, then. This side of the coin is that which we find frightening about ourselves. Tails sees that it is violent. So it dreams up an opposite and declares it to be different. Its opposite is the heads side of the coin.

To clarify this: the heads side will be Dr. Jekyll (a respected physician in his day). And, tails side is Mr. Hyde (the cold-blooded murderer who hides in the darkness of night like a predator stalking its prey in the shadows). The egotistical nature is based on duality by projecting an image. Any image, psychologically speaking, borrows fragments of the facts and leaves out those facts that it finds to be emotionally too painful. The ideal is built on a distorted version of its original self.

In other words the reason why the mind fabricates an opposite appearance of itself is to fool itself and others into mistaking the mask for being its original nature. Mind projects the concept of peace yet in fact uses non-peaceful means to acquire it. Peace will only come when the mind fully exams its real nature as it arises in the present from moment to moment. The purpose of exposing what the actual nature of the mind or ego is, is free the mind from its psychological bondage to which it has been enslaved for thousands of years.

It, therefore, requires a very simple approach to this problem of which the entire human race is faced. Our lives are being threatened everyday by this psychological coin of confusion or duality. One could say that the “Devil” symbols in the psyche all that the minds hates about itself. So it tries the escape through inventing the opposite of itself. Then that projected belief tries to replace itself. So when the mind sees violence in itself, it says that it believes itself to be non-violent (the imagined opposite of violence). The idea of non-violence is opposing what it is (violence). So there is the birth of the perpetual psychological Armageddon within the mind of humanity. We think that one side should win and the other should lose. However, being a coin that is one thing, both sides are one. If you separate a tree from its roots, then the upper half cannot live nor can the lower half grow beyond its stump. So if God destroys the Devil then the whole coin is destroyed and visa versa, as well. This why conflict has never saved the human race from destroying one civilization after another. All of past human civilizations made the same fatal error.

 

What fatal error, you may ask?  

The error of arrogance. Humanity has taken it for granted that just because it has accumulated a whole technical information or data and has the ability to process and manipulate physical matter that the mind can do anything it wants without any limits. Trouble is this...

When the mind grows and expands its technical skill-set memory without equally learning and understanding the very nature of its psychological dualistic movements, then everything it learns technically is being used as a means to the ends of serving the ego's delusional fulfillment, which generally ends in a bloodbath. The mind is only being educated/trained in order to do battle with itself. So all of the knowledge is being used to perpetuate an endless loop of conflict while promising peace at some unknown future. After all, in order to battle others you must begin with yourself. So the mind splits its mind in half and chooses a side to identify with. If the conscious mind chooses “heads” (the hero or God), then the unconscious half chooses its opposite – “tails” (the villain or Devil). Then the mind chooses its so-called friends and foes using a contradictory mind.

Choice, psychologically, is conflict which is violence or war. When we choose to believe, then we choose danger to the material world (including physical security of all kinds). The human race has been living in fear of losing their physical security since the beginning of ego worship. When we fail to learn and study what we are, then then glorify and bow down to something we really don't understand and have clarity about. We simply fear our minds. We seek others to tell us how to pacify our fear. We don't want freedom from fear because if we are free from fear we no longer function as a divided dualistic self-destructive entity. We are then whole.

There can only be peace and physical security when one studies their mind and through examination and observation ALONE, clarity ends the craving to believe. Belief exists simply because the mind is too afraid to face itself as it is without trying to improve itself. Duality is a state of conflict. The identity we call “the me” is the ego that want to be the director, producer and dictator of itself. It thinks by battling itself through opposing ideals, beliefs and any projection from its emotional storehouse of memory, that somehow it can make everything work and it can keep it all under control. But all the mind can do is use itself. What is itself? Just a collection of words backed by emotion.

We have been born into two worlds. The original world of reality is our biological world. It is real. It is not a result of our imaginations. Our bodies and health is grounded in facts. And it is this world that has been sacrificed for centuries to the gods. The “gods” is the beliefs generated from our emotional self (our sense of self importance). The more we worship our ego, the more damage that this material or biological world is harmed. It does not matter what you believe in, any belief is the negation of facing the true nature of “the me” (ego).

As we mature from birth and begin to learn to speak, we are pressured into dividing the way we perceive ourselves. We are trained to shun anything we feel or detect that does not conform to a pattern of so-called “goodness”. So we are encouraged through reward and punishment to suppress ourselves through identifying with the opposite of that naughty expression or feeling or thought. We are then waging war within consciousness. Picking what thoughts and feelings to cling to and ignoring or suppressing the disturbing aspects of ones mind. So the mind is programmed, trained or conditioned like a computer and it is not free to question its programming at all. To question it is to be considered “bad”. So the coin of opposition is set going for the rest of ones life.

We desperately want to “believe” that the leaders are working on making the world a safer place in which to live. False. Any mind that is not free to see that it is programmed to exist in a psychological stasis (by dreaming that belief is your savior), such a mind is caught in a web of self-deception. The mind is living a double life and does not realize it. When the mind fails to see its nature, it is ignorant about the fact that it is at odds withing itself. So it does battle in every relationship. What I mean by battle is opposition. There is overt battling. That is where the conflict is obvious. And there is covert war. That is where you are under attack but you do are unaware that you are.

When you see a a robber with a gun out, that is overt conflict or opposition. But when you are told to obey psychological authority (such as: believe in your racial tribe, believe in God, believe in “your country”, believe that you are superior to another human being) to conform to that is to destroy the original world (body, earth and atmosphere). We may not think that humanity is killing this physical world, but as long as he or she sleeps in the realm of believing or ideological identifications, the physical world must end.

You see you can't have both worlds be protected. One world must give way. If the egotistical imagination of humanity continues to hide behind the illusion of being rescued by an ideal of any kind, then history will repeat itself and another civilization will collapse. We are dealing with the Laws of Life here, not the man-made laws invented by the ego of mankind. The Eternal Law of Life is irrefutable and the human psyche cannot overrule it. The mind is founded on memory (its past emotional history). It is that past that invents one idealistic escape after another – believing it can improve itself with itself. But all roads lead back to conflict between what I am and what I desire to become. Where there is conflict, there can never be peace.

There is no such thing an “the ultimate war” that will yield a harvest of peace. Conflict is a tree that can only bear the fruit of what it is – conflict. Every belief that one identifies itself with is like planting another tree of conflict and sprouting more of that poisonous fruit. When the mind is poisoned by believing, it is paralyzed and is bound by that illusion and will sacrifice its sanity to feel a false sense of psychological security. So long as one feels safe in a psychological falsehood about itself (such as one may wish to believe that one is happy with oneself). But when the tide of truth washes upon the beach all houses made of sand dissolve.

Since the mind is memory and ego is then a limited entity. Yes it may add to itself, but that which can be added to is finite and is therefore, limited. A believe is simply what the mind desires life to be. But life is not opposing the belief. A fact is simply what it is. Nothing can change it. The fact that the consciousness of humanity is limited because it chooses to be limited out of a state of ignorance about its true nature. Ego is self-destructive because one side of itself has an opposing agenda. Were there is opposition, there is warfare. So a mind that is at war with itself can only generate one thing.

The image is an instrument of the mind that was designed to be used for physical security purposes only. It was never suppose to serve itself or fulfill itself. We use our imagination in order to do technical things to provide for food, clothing and shelter. Mind uses its technical memory (non-emotional) to calculate and measure and compare for material reasons. The image has its proper place in this area.


The problem of the imagination appears when we cross over to the psychological side and use images to bring about things that the mind cannot conjure or make. The mind cannot make Love, Truth, Wisdom or Peace. Those things are beyond human thinking. Thinking must end in order for the mind to be whole and no longer in conflict with one side of its psychological coin opposing the other. The mind is not really trying to totally destroy the other side because secretly both sides is taking pleasure in the conflict itself. So if it were to destroy the world in reality, then it would no longer have the perverted pleasure of indulging in conflict.

The mind has invented an ideal of “love”. To prove that “love” you must fight and destroy and deceive in honor of the belief or ideal that one has projected from itshistory of psychological hurts. This ancient programming has dominated the world for thousands of years. The human psyche, when it is fragmented, is a monstrous leech that keeps repeating its program. It is like TV shows, after so many seasons, they are retired and another program takes its place. They change the peripheral aspects of the programming but the main program is the same – the pretext of good fighting evil so that the world will be safe, because let's face it folks, the world has never been safe since humans showed up.

Sure Mother Nature is not exactly safe. Yet, there have never been any species other than the Homo sapiens who threaten the very equilibrium of our planet and atmosphere. Humanity has set off a nuclear explosion near the upper earth atmosphere of The Van Allen radiation belt. Our species is polluting this planet at an alarming rate. Why? Because when we devote our energy to serving a false reality, then it dissolves the real reality. 

It is the blind servitude to ones ego that is the #1 weapon of mass destruction. Like a computer virus, whatever it comes into contact with, it tries to replicate itself or else eliminate it. It is the tyranny of believing that is sacrificing all that is real in this world: our health, sanity, a clean environment free of man-made poisons. But as long as the mind of humanity remains addicted to believing and never has the freedom to investigate itself, then the future will end up like the past, in ashes.

The foundation of a building is based on the integrity of its foundation. If the foundation is fractured and divided, then no matter how elegant the architectural design may be nor how tall and grand it is, the building is doomed to collapse in on itself, because its foundation is severely compromised. I am using this as a metaphor to explain how our mind is hurting itself but thinks it is making things better. This is the delusion that we are all born into, and few of us awaken to all of this and face it honestly. Whenever the mind is jolted awake by some horrific tragedy, it either opposes the truth or looks for another distraction in order to hide. The mind flatly refuses to be fully awake, psychologically. That is why it doesn't acknowledge that it is, in fact, in conflict. 

A mind in conflict is hypocritical. It says one thing and does the opposite. So the mind has a conflict of interest. It says it wants to be safe, yet it constantly makes war over beliefs. Children are sent off to fight for old people's beliefs and ideals. It is all done for the so-called “greater good”. Who says? The psychological storehouse of memory says, that's who. So we are fighting just to be fighting. 

The mind of man has become a perpetual warrior that is fighting for the thrill of fighting! And it thinks there is no other way to exist. And because it has learned how to pretend to be a friend (like a spy posing as a double-agent does) so that your group (family, country, religious clan or any ego-based group that rationalizes its violence for some “idealistic” cause). The ideal is used as insurance to guarantee endless conflict. The way people really get their physical needs met is by sacrificing others so that they and their closest “friends” profit from their loss.

Warfare is a mind game. War exists so that people will remain afraid and so that aggressive mentalities may control or dominate them. None of that would be possible if the mind were to face itself honestly. When one faces reality then one is no longer at odds with it. Such a mind is no longer seeking power or control. An entity that is whole (not broken in half and those 2 halves opposing each other and pretending that they are 2 separate entities), then the Holistic Perception of the Truth sets one free from duality. 

The perception of a fact contains NO OPPOSITION whatsoever. The mind is only fractured the moment it wishes to move away from the perceiving exactly what is. Mind is nothing but a “Dream Weaver”. The is no dream, image, ideal or belief that can bring about balance and harmony. So when the mind feels that Truth in it entire being, then one is whole and is free from believing. The mind is now Wise and is a light unto itself by seeing that which is FALSE about itself. When you see what is False, then Truth is.

You don't capture the Truth. How can a (limited) fragment capture the Whole (unlimited) state of mind? When the mind sees that believing and identifying with anything born out of the “what should be” based on the mind' biases and desires, then it ceases to be a slave to illusions. The hardest lesson for the mind to learn about itself is that its a liar (mainly to itself). You ever wonder why the story about Jekyll & Hyde was named “Hyde”. The respectability of Dr. Jekyll is what cloaked the dangerous Mr. Hyde. Heads part of the mind lured the victims to him because they were fooled by his psychological mask of being a gentleman and harmless. Once her mind bought the illusion, out pops the hidden Mr. Hyde. The victim is lured by the sweet music of deception (the way he talks, his level of wealth, his superficial social manners, etc., etc., etc.). But non of that is his true nature. When you take a lie to be real, then your real life is then lost.

We have been programmed to ignore what are real nature is and to play along with the game – no questions asked. The acid test to expose corruption is questioning. That which is False detests questioning. When the mind questions itself in order to understand exactly what its nature is, that is freedom from self-ignorance. Beliefs, images all things projected from the emotional reservoir of memory requires darkness. It is like an old movie film that can only be seen in a dark room. When light fills the room, the image is no longer there. So the image requires darkness. In poetry, the word “darkness” is to symbolize ignorance or unawareness.

In order to program the mind, it must be afraid of seeing itself as it is. So we have been influenced by the the community we grew up in to conform to what you are told and everything will be fine. If you don't then bad things will happen to you. But lets look at the facts without your personal likes and dislikes interfering...

When the masses do conform to believing, we get the world we have – one that is awash in conflict. Things are getting more and more frightening by the day. Why? Because, nothing is fundamentally changing. Politicians are psychological magicians playing optical illusions with our physical security. They promise to meet our needs, but they are all operating off of their egos too. The foundation of their minds is fragmented. How can you tell? Simply because a mind that is at war within must promote war in the world at large. They all recommend that we hurt one part of the human race so another part can reap the benefits. Those who stand to benefit are usually in favor of the slaughter of the group they don't identify with. 

But we only have one planet and every war is damaging the balance of our entire ecology and atmosphere. But the world of images cares nothing about the 3 dimensional realm. It gladly sacrifices it to stay in its comfortable cocoon of whatever it wishes to believe. It blames its enemies for anything that goes wrong in the physical world so that it can have an excuse to continue conflict until there is nothing left to destroy. Then what? Who won? When the real world goes way then the Ego no longer has a chess board on which to stage its war against itself. One side trying to claim superiority. How the hell can one side of the same psychological coin be higher than the other side. There's only one mind, but it has imaged that it can be something more or better. That belief is a lie and that lie fights to prove that its not a lie, which is an impossibility.

But the human species is one consciousness at its root. So what is going on inside the mind of each person, fundamentally, is the same thing. You either are studying your mind and therefore, you are not in conflict, or you are oblivious to the implications of “believing”. In reality we have been programmed to think that the human way of like that is based on stroking the ego of your superior is perfectly normal and a healthy sane thing to cooperate with. We are fooled by quantity. We are like a robot who gauges the verification“truth” through measurement. If a lot of people say a thing is so, then we tend to think that is true then. Remember when the vast majority of people “believed” that the earth was flat? If anyone thought different they were branded to be crazy.

Its so incredibly easy to program the mind today, simply because of the sheer numbers of people who are unaware that they are enslaved to illusions that are causing the non-stop proliferation of conflict. Because of so many people going around proclaiming that they have a natural right to their opinion, belief or any other egotistical ideal, then we have blindly accepted without questioning its validity. We have just assumed its OK to base your life of your desire of how you want your mind to be. The mind is there to be studied and to clearly understand when it is malfunctioning. The mind is inherently meant to conjure formulas, systems and images but just for the sake of securing physical or biological self preservation.

The ego thinks that its suppose to seek security within its imagination whenever it does not like certain facts about itself. The mind is malfunctioning when it opposes itself. It's like the mind is playing a chess game with itself. It chooses one side to identify with. The conscious mind uses “Black” chess pieces and so the other side is automatically assigned to the unconscious (Mr. Hyde). So no matter which side wins, the other side loses. But in real life, the chess board itself is the ground of life (our planet, our bodies and our clarity of mind) is destroyed by believing. If there were no beliefs, there would be no wars. After all, we are fighting over our opinions which is always based on WHAT WE DESIRE TO BE TRUE, regards of the facts. Ego is trying to compete with reality.

But the Ego forgets that it is playing its conflict on the chess board of Real Life, if that board disappears, then game is permanently over and there will be nothing and no one around to say that the Ego won. Without the board, the Ego literally has no ground on which to stand. If there were no factual reality then there would be no photograph taken. For there to be an image, it must imitate the original, must it not? So a belief is an extrapolation taken from the Truth (the original state of mind). So whenever we have a thought or an emotion that disturbs us, we try to avoid it. That is the mind avoiding seeing and being in touch with what it feels or thinks. This is conflict to oppose yourself and say to yourself that you mustn't feel like that. That feeling is you! 

The energy that gives your body life is there ready to watch and learn everything about itself, but it must observe itself 100% and not avoid any thought, feeling or emotion that gets triggered whilst interacting with others. They set going certain feelings that may give pleasant or unpleasant sensations. If the mind refuses to be aware of all of its responses then it has divided itself. The moment it does that the mind is lost in illusion and thinks that is a “good thing”.

After the collective Ego annihilates itself by believing itself to death, the vast Universe will still carry on seeking balance and equilibrium, without the human species. So the Ego's end-game is stupid, because at the end of the day, that which is false and limited will remain false and limited. So basically, the facts of life is all about perception. The energy that makes our bodies be alive, this energy is the thing that looks at the human psyche. But, the Ego interferes with perception by picking which parts of itself that it wishes to acknowledge and which parts it will pretend does not exist. So then ones self-awareness gets corrupted and is then shattered. The perception was reduced to a belief, which is an abstraction of reality. It is an imposture that is posing as something that it's not – that it is here to make us safe. But, when people believed Hitler they nearly destroyed the world. They came close. The mind of humanity is the only real danger that we need to deal with. Its endeavor to remain blind to itself is the only agenda it really has. 

The thing we are all defending IS the Doomsday Machine of Believing. When you believe, psychologically, then you divide the mind up into the good and the bad; the painful and the pleasurable. You seek to hold onto the one side that you like and run from the side that you don't like. This negates being whole, does it not? Plus, the reality is that you are your whole mind (all of its contents is itself). So when we try to control or suppress various expressions or feelings, we are straggling against seeing the whole mind. Seeing that this struggle can never bring about peace but only more strife trying to avoid seeing my whole mind; when ones sees this is nonsensical, well that insight breaks the delusional trance. Seeing what is false is the Truth which sets the entire mind free from fragmenting itself by seeking refuge in abstractions or believing.

No leader can save you from your mind. Your mind is programmed to be blind to the real Truth about the act of believing. We have spent centuries killing one another over WHAT we “believe” in. We have been superficial in that approach. There are countless beliefs so you can't end them by opposing them. For every belief group that is oppressed a multitude of others take their place. Opposition is the very fuel that keeps the conflict machine going. So coming up with any belief or ideal only adds to the problem. If “belief” were a negative number, then the more beliefs you add, the greater the negative effects of catastrophes increases. We are attempting to put out fire with gasoline. “Belief” looks like a liquid, metaphorically speaking, but we don't detect that that liquid is highly volatile.

So where belief is concerned, we have the one side that looks friendly (heads) and the one that looks scary (tails). It's like the “wolf” (villain or Devil) and the “wolf-in-sheep's clothing” (the hero or God) who are secretly partners in the crime of perpetuating conflict through promoting psychological identification in an ideal or belief. In other words, both sides of the psychological coin are driven by the same motivation – the fear of not fulfilling in their self-projected illusions. After all, thought cannot go beyond itself by using itself to do it. All that thought is is a memory (emotionally speaking). Always comparing and measuring ourselves and competing within ourselves. I am ALL feelings and thoughts. If the mind were climate, it would have a wide variety of expressions (thought and feelings). There would be fair weather, hot weather, cold weather, stormy weather but life is a whole adventure. You can't edit out parts of it. You must accept it as a whole, so we must deal with every weather condition no matter what it feels like. 

Similarly, our minds contain a wide variety of feelings which can be uncomfortable sometimes. But that does not mean you can shun them (which is your mind). Like the weather, we must holistically perceive everything that we think and feel, not to impose it onto others but to be free to learn about “the me” without opposing it in any way. Because when you look to a belief, you are seeking a road map that is put together by the very mind that you wish to escape. Do you see the absurdity there? “Belief then represents the movement away from yourself into a make-believe delusional world.


Belief is the Wolf-in-sheep's clothing...


That is what the ancient warriors did in the city of Troy. They sent in a Trojan Horse as a gift to their enemy. They accepted as a gift. The soldiers got drunk and fell asleep. Then the soldiers inside the Trojan Horse popped out and killed them in their sleep. The point is that the mind makes up ideals in order to pretend like will be saved if I believe. Once the mind takes pleasure in the illusion of safety (the belief is propagating), then out pops the hammer of death. So it matters not if one believes in the Devil (“wolf”) or God (“wolf-in-sheep's clothing”) because they are simply two halves of the same mind. So when the upper consciousness believes in one side, the unconscious believes in its opposite. Therefore, a divided mind is dualistic and is leading a contradictory existence. So there will always be some part of the dualistic mind that goes unfulfilled, which is why it is never happy and comfortable in its own skin. Such a broken state of mind can only lead one into repetitive suffering (as the record shows).

The more that the concept-of-peace is broadcast, the more we destroy the world and frighten the world. The only salvation is through being whole. You cannot practice being whole. Any practice is a map that is built by the mind in order to escape from itself. Therefore, there can never be a system to follow. It's a natural thing that happens when you care. If you have Love in your heart, you will find out or detect the falseness about believing and that it is the greatest threat to our existence. I am not opposed to beliefs or believing. I am simply aware of the facts about what its nature is because I study/investigate my responses (ALL OF THEM) as they arise. 

Responses are mainly triggered through human communication or social interaction. If you will notice the mind is greedy for psychological gratification. It endlessly seeks out people to support their image of him or herself. A person believes they are “good”. So they want others to tell them they are. If they don't then they will treat them as an enemy. Consider them fair game to harm. If you gratify the ego of another, you may think you have done no harm, but you have helped that person to remain psychologically blind. So you have contributed to their conflict and yours. So now both of your physical security is on the line to be sacrificed. This why people turn on each other. They do this to bring the reward back to their group.

News Flash – we live in world that is rooted in chaos. 


Conflict is a world of chaos and disorder. It uses technology to create the illusion of order but really it is all resting on a psychological time bomb that is ticking away every moment of everyday. At our jobs no matter what our life-style or where we live, we are challenged all the time to cave in and just rely on “ANY BELIEF”. Heck, the mind that exists in conflict does not care what type of conflict you are promoting and nurturing so long as you do it. Because, mind just wants to remain in a fantasy of pretending to seek peace, love and fairness – rubbish! The broken mind knows nothing of real Love or Happiness. It only knows opposition which is an existence of turmoil and frustration. 

The “belief” never makes good on its promise of salvation. And the so-called “peace” that it sells us on is Covert Conflict. Just like there are pollutants that are slowly harming our bodies, we think nothing of it because it is not obvious. So we think we live in “peace” because bombs are not falling from the sky. But, the media attacks us emotionally all the time. If we are afraid of looking at our responses, we are shattered by the speculations about doom and gloom. So we hide in a belief and hope that something outside will come save the insane from itself. Nothing will do that, by the way. Only the Truth shall set the mind free from the fear of knowing itself completely. Nothing short of that will suffice. Things will continue to get scarier and scarier the more we don't question the function of believing. In this area, we are like cavemen. We are primitive brutes that seeks to protect this monster that refuses to see how it is being a monster and continues to think that it sane and rational.

Sanity means to be healthy and whole, not divided and in conflict within. If your body's immune system attacks itself (which it does for some people), then it is shutting down its own system. The origin of the body acting like this is mainly due to the mind believing. When the mind fights itself by identifying with a make-believe that energy is dividing and opposing itself and is permeating the entire body. We are all organisms of vibrations. Our vibrations that we emit are based on our state of mind. If our state of mind is at odds with itself and does not observe ALL of its responses without opposition, then we create a destructive vibration. People in conflict attract others in conflict and they behave outwardly towards one another the same way that they inwardly relate within ourselves. 

So when we do believe, we set a destructive chain reaction going like a tide flowing out and then back in again. External warfare is a public display of how our mind relates to itself. If the mind is not struggling against itself, it is at peace. It simply watches its responses and does nothing to control them. Such a mind is whole and is creating a vibration of peace. When conflict ends there is peace. It ends upon watching its unfold like a flower blossoming. In that watching is the energy that sees conflict holistically. It sees all of it from Alpha to Omega. What you see it completely, then confusion ends and the mind is clear, sane and whole.

Seeing the futility of conflict is the freedom from its illusory bondage of believing. That is why its erroneous to think that “seeing is the same thing as believing”. The two states or completely unrelated. Believing is merely a projection from the mind in order to fulfill a personal desire to become something better or more. However, “seeing” a fact as a fact has nothing whatsoever to do with desire. Because the first world that your were born into was the biological world, it is that world that demands protecting. Biological self preservation is what makes us jump away from any physical danger. The body has its intelligence that demands security.

Therefore, anything that threatens the physical security must be intelligently resolved so that the body can be safe from harm. Yet, the Ego wants to be safe from disturbing thoughts or feelings. It does not want to see that it cannot save itself through itself (believing in things it conjures from it storehouse of emotional experience). Just because we must protect our bodies that does not give the Ego the right to defend illusions about itself in order to hide from unpleasant states of mind. That is psychological warfare when the mind picks apart its mind to protect itself the disturbance of seeing itself exactly as it is. When this happens a competition is set going. 

The biological brain naturally demands protection from harm. When the ego protects the “what should be” based on its desire, then the biological is adversely affected. It's like a light switch. You can't have the light switched on and off simultaneously. That's impossible, right? Either the light is on or its off. Similarly, whenever you switch on believing, you have switched off physical security. When you believe you must go to war and fight for the belief.

The biological body is the sacrificial lamb. That means when you opt to defend the action of believing, you are, therefore, in favor of war, which destroys peace and physical safety is out the window. The Ego is greedy because it wants and cake and eat it too. It wants both physical and psychological security. But the Eternal Law of Life says that you can't have them both. You can only have one or the other but not both. 

What I mean by psychological security is: seeking safety in a belief. That belief is in direct opposition to itself. It is one state of mind verses another. Like the fight between Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. No matter who conquers, they both die because they were the same entity all along. It makes no sense to have a belief when you observe your total mind. Then that passive, holistic self-awareness ends the seeking to become anything. When you are whole you don't need to seek anything, for whatever you feel or think you have no defense against, because it's all you, anyway. Learning that Eternal Truth IS the only salvation that a human mind needs. The mind is then clear from illusion and is therefore a light unto itself. Since the mind is whole, there is no more struggle. So the mind is emitting a harmonious vibration. The body is safe, and so is the environment, because without war, Mother Nature can restore balance and heal.

But this non-stop advertising of “believing” is the signal that is leading us to bloodshed and despair. Now either we are creative creatures or we are destructive monsters. You cannot be both – lights on or off, right? The monster is a believer. The immortal mind is a creature that simply sees Truth through its awareness that all beliefs are the only enemy to tranquility and bliss. The point is not to seek to escape from the monster, but to look directly at it. Its only a monster because it refuses to look at itself (100%). If we don't look at ourselves as we really are, then we will keep on repeating the history of devastation. 

These are the facts, not as I see them, but as they actually are. You should not accept what I have said, because that would be believing in what I have said. That would be worthless. But if you bother to look and test it out, you will discover the Truth for yourself and be free. No man can free another; all that one can do is “look” at your mind for yourself. The answers lies in the looking or observing – in no other place.
