Body, Emotions, Mind … and Beyond

Considerations 21 …

Let’s Analyze this …

I have stated many times that mind is a tool that was given to Soul to use to contend with what will go on around It during Its many, many lifetimes here in the lower psychic worlds. It is an exceptional tool, extremely powerful, the avenue for manifestation on all levels in the psychic worlds, and is an incredible companion when kept under control and is well-directed … but becomes an outrageous con artist when left to run the show undisciplined.

Since Soul has to deal with experiences that are outside of it when in these worlds … It needed a way to juggle the many variations and determine what is beneficial or what is detrimental. This … mind will do … according to each individuals choice in instructing the mind towards personal choice and habit.

Mind parts out that which is around it. Mind dissects, analyzes, defines, categorizes, labels, etc. This is the way mind approaches things. Study the experience … piece through it to determine if there is any danger there to the individual … make that determination … go with the choice.

Mind will happily spin and dance over most anything … juggling theories, possibilities, variations, determinations endlessly … for as long as it is left to carry these dissections out.

Mind is rarely asked to put all of these pieces back together to understand the Whole as IT (LIFE) is. Mind again is designed to analyze and assume from the Whole to the specific … using theories and beliefs to rationalize and prove a specific conclusion.

Mind is NOT well designed to draw broad conclusions based on evidence and observations … using specific experiences to draw general conclusions and likely outcomes.

In a way this is how the use of a journal assists the individual … by keeping track of specific experiences and later uncovering the tie between them to determine the core issues. Mind not only has a tough time in doing this … but the use of a journal tends to accentuate the many experiences as being somewhat “outside” the individual and you can inspect them somewhat more objectively. That … is of benefit to their understanding.

So many conversations and experiences in our daily lives struggle with a very specific issue and we get caught up in the bickering over it. This does not lead to its understanding nor to resolving it. Mind enjoys this behavior … an it is clear from many forum board conversations that mind squabbles simply to continue the debate for entertainment purposes. Since mind can do this endlessly … designing, blending, combining, concocting, and fabricating anything that intrigues it whether it is “logical” or “reasonable” or not … there will be no resolution or understanding.

This is not an attack on the mind as the tool that it is. Mind is doing what it is designed to do.

The decision we all have to approach and slowly resolve is … do we want our consciousness to control us as the individual … or do we wish to control our consciousness.

It is not an easy decision to make. Mind will not … and does not … like to be disciplined.

This is the ultimate endgame for all … nonetheless. Steps are often small. Larger issues are taken on as we gain ability to curb our focus. We tend to become what we focus on.

Soul discovers Itself and begins to live within the Whole of Life. As It does this … It learns to live within both perspectives … using the mind as intended while “here” and living well beyond mind when in the Pure Worlds of God.

More later.
