The Mind is Unreliable

Aug 17, 2024


In our society, we value our brains a lot. So much so, that our heart and body is disregarded. It can be like the body is just there to carry the head around. Our society values knowledge, science and mindset.

But are we missing out?

You know or suspect that there is more to life than thinking about it, don’t you?
So what else is there?


Well, some people contact the spirit world for answers. (Is that also in the head?)

Some people speak of energy, angels and angelic beings.

Others relate to religion and religious beliefs.

It’s as though everyone secretly knows that there is something more to life. (and after death)

But where or what is it?

People want answers.

So they search and use their minds.

I did too. I read many books. I found concepts to believe in. It felt good to be searching – up to a point - when it didn’t.

Consider that it is much simpler.

It’s starring us in the face, hidden in full view.

It’s here now. Everywhere. Inside and outside.

The way in, is to inquire into your old patterns set up by conditioning and fixation. In this way we can realise who we are not. And what’s left?

Essentially it’s facing the unknown. Even though your mind desperately wants to know.

It can be scary to look into not knowing. But in truth, our minds cannot know what is going to happen in the future. We can prepare all we like, but really we don’t know. We don’t know what comes after death, if anything.

And in truly accepting not knowing, there is such peace and love.

We can stay right here, in this moment, in freedom.
