Perceptions &
Out of the Mind Strategies – Go
Beyond the Boxed in Strategies
of Striving or Retreating - Part
1.
Many individuals who attempt to
go beyond ‘box-thinking’
strategies often fail, because
they constantly dwell upon what
others do, think and say. They
choose to conform to mass
consciousness conditions and
agendas through appeasement,
obligation and compromise,
because that is what they are
expected to do and that is all
the mind knows.
If someone begins to judge or
ridicule you, stating that you
are not ‘good enough’ at what
you do, how would you react?
What outcome would you choose
when you only live in your head?
The mind in duality only knows
of two methods, the fight or
flight response to deal with an
issue if you do things from your
head and not from your heart.
Being stuck in the mind and not
being able to get ‘out of the
mind’ scenarios to expand
consciousness can be broken down
into 2 primary categories.
1. Strive
2. Retreat
3. Mental "Figuring-Out"
4. Defining Words
Let’s take a look at each
individual category:
Strive – To force
improvement to meet the
standard society expects you
to comfort to:
You may acknowledge that your
work needs improvement, so you
stop what you do and learn the
methods that are needed and you
spend lots of money to force
your mind to educate itself. If
these lessons do not come
easily, the constant striving,
and effort will just stress and
tire out the mind so it can be
of a high standard to suit
other’s agendas, demands and
conformities. Going along to
just appease social expectations
so you can compete and be
compared with others who are on
a different journey, will not
develop the satisfaction that
you are searching for. It will
not develop your worth, health,
relationships and abundance
aspects because you are doing it
with mental force through social
obligation that will limit and
compromise grander potentials to
surface. Doing things from the
head and not from your heart
leads to stress, mental or
physical imbalance in your
personal, social or business
life.
Retreat – To give in, to
pull back, to stop trying to
improve just to meet certain
standards:
You may acknowledge that your
work needs improvement, but you
think you don’t have the money
to obtain lessons, or you don’t
want others to take over your
creations, or you don’t agree
with societies rules or
regulations on what you have to
do in order to obtain
self-improvement, or you may
think you don’t have the
capabilities of improving
yourself to meet or satisfy
their conditions. So, you do
nothing and you stop trying to
achieve! You become stressed and
imbalanced mentally or
physically in your personal,
social or business life. Most of
humanities drama issues are
magnified to unpleasant levels
due to allowing themselves to be
contained in a limited set of
controls and rules – many of
which are self-made. To go
beyond these controls, rules and
conformities is to go beyond the
perceptions of the mind and the
influence of mass consciousness.
To balance these scenarios is to
get ‘out of the mind’, to
get out of the head and listen
to your heart – your feelings of
what is right for you, what is
your truth and to be prepared to
live what you believe in.
Mental
‘Figuring-Out’ – In this
scenario of
self-improvement, you try to
‘figure’ things out,
because to be a high
standard of being the best,
to get good grades, the mind
has to know-it-all. The
intellectual and the
analytical mind have played
a superior role in
humanities experiences for a
very long time. The mind
has been placed on a
pedestal, dividing a wedge
between mind and muscle and
between analytical mind and
the intuitive and emotional
senses. The mind tires and
becomes stressed easily as
it has been pushed to its
limits to be of a certain
standard and performance,
not only with the self, but
with the competition and
comparison against others.
Yet, the mind is also very
fearful, and when it is in
fear mode, the ego stands
its ground to survive and
protect the physical vessel
from what it fears. When
stress and fear is in full
force, the ego becomes
unbalanced, and it often
creates many immoral
behaviour traits, as well as
sabotaging itself when
exposed to the unknown and
change. The mind being very
logical in its reasoning
patterns becomes mistrusting
and sceptical with anything
that cannot be explained or
proven. That is why
feelings, emotions and
intuition have been
squashed, because it cannot
be proven and controlled.
The ‘mind doesnot
know beyond what it knows’
so it tends to cling to the
limited vision of only what
it knows and that is only
from past experiences or to
rely and depend upon what
others know, say, do and
have. The mind being limited
to understanding beyond the
present has to try to
figure-out everything, and,
it can’t, because it cannot
go beyond what it knows – it
has forgotten most incidents
from the past and it has no
idea what the future will
be. Unfortunately, what the
mind does remember are the
fears and doubts of past
wounds that will not serve
you in the future. The mind
always brings the past into
the future, seeking
validation outside of
itself, as well as dwelling
upon all the external drama
games.
Defining
Words – What others say
to you can make or break
your ability to improve
yourself. It can lead you
to strive or to retreat. How
you define words is about
how you perceive and
interpret them. How you
interpret words, phrases and
statements, as well as the
action and reaction of an
experience is a reflection
of how you see and treat
yourself and others around
you – your level of worth.
Therefore, how others see
and treat you is not only
about them, but it is the
mirror, it is a reflection
of you, through the
experience of their words
and actions. Like attract
like! Words have many
meanings, but these meanings
are often delivered with the
energy of feeling and
emotion that you pick up
on. How you react to these
words and the atmospheric
feelings depends on the
level of your consciousness,
trust and self-worth – i.e.
how you see and treat
yourself that derives from
your beliefs and the
influences of the dualistic
concepts of right and wrong,
dark and light within mass
consciousness. These
feelings intensify the
situation and if you buy
into that energy, giving
that energy attention you
will attract that scenario
into your life for you to
experiences its expression.
Be aware that when you define
words you can get caught in the
‘mental trap of figuring-out’
that limits unknown potentials
to come in. The mental trap
belittles self-worth and
self-trust and it creates a
striving verses retreating
victim attitude. This keeps you
living in the drama games of
seeking validation in your outer
world. ‘Things are not what they
seem – they are more than what
they seem’. It is just like an
audience watching a drama play,
what is really going on behind
the stage! Energy has many
levels of expression – what you
see and hear from others and how
you define their words is only a
limited expression from their
story – the masquerade game that
they have chosen to act out.
Your story is not the same, you
are different, you are not at
the same level of consciousness
to them, so why buy into their
story, why seek validation from
their story and why limit your
potentials on how they define
their story- their truth and how
you define what you hear and see
in that story?
Perceptions & Out of the Mind
Strategies - The Mental Trap of
Defining Words Part 2.
Part 2 is to learn to go beyond
the mental trap of striving and
retreating when an individual is
cornered with judgments and
agendas of societies’ red tape.
Because humanity lives in the
mind, it thinks it has to
‘figure-out’ everything to
develop trust and worth.
It also thinks that certain
words have certain meanings, but
there are many different
energetic levels of
understanding and defining
words.
How you perceive and interpret
words depends on your level of
consciousness, your belief
system as well as the influences
from mass consciousness
overlays.
Being stuck in the mind and not
being able to get ‘out of the
mind’ scenarios to expand
consciousness has another 2
primary categories.
1.
Expanded Meaning of Words
2. Perceptions, Interpretations and Belief Systems
Let’s take a look at each
individual category:
Expanded
Meaning of Words: As
consciousness expands and
changes so does the meaning
and understanding of words.
Old perceptions about what a
word means changes - nothing
stays the same. Because
consciousness is growing and
is changing very rapidly,
sensory feelings and heart
feelings about a certain
word is expanding and
developing much faster than
what a word was meant in the
past. But also these sensory
feelings can begin to be
felt, but there are no words
in the spoken language to
define what they truly
mean. That is where words
from the mind are limited
and it is necessary to begin
to feel from the heart, to
feel the energy to
understand the underlying
issue to its full extent.
Eg Take the word empathy.
a)The
meaning of empathy in a
dictionary isthe
‘ability to mentally identify
with, to understand and to fully
comprehend with somebody else’s
feelings, difficulties or
issues’.
b)As
consciousness changes into a new
age, as you open up, and your
awareness and understanding
grows, empathy then means ‘the
ability to feel another’s pain
or issues.’ When you feel
energy it is easy to pick up
that energy, to buy into that
energy and take on that energy
as your own. That energy it is
not yours, unless you
consciously choose to have it,
you actually are picking up on
another’s vibration. Just
because you feel that energy it
doesn’t mean that you own it.
Because you are feeling the pain
of another, you then think that
energy belongs to you, and you
buy into that energy, and
because you think it is yours,
you begin to act it out, to live
it in your reality – that is
your experience, your story.
You are taking on others energy
in service, but it doesn’t have
to be that way.
c)Now,
in a new energy, as your
awareness expands and opens up
even more to where you are more
sensitive to feeling energy,
especially the pain from mass
consciousness, you mentally
identify with and feel another
pain, but you do not need to
take on another’s pain or issue
as your own, you do not have to
buy into and own that pain or
issue as your own – it is to
feel then release and move
another’s stuck energy.
Perceptions, Interpretations
and Belief Systems –
Your belief system is made
up of many formulated likes
and dislikes, facts and
mistruths about who you
think you are, what you
think and feel about life
and your experiences. What
you were taught, what you
have seen and heard becomes
stored in the subconscious
to replay that belief, that
story game. Whatever you
take on from the influences
of mass consciousness
becomes your belief and
whatever you agree with or
disagree with becomes your
belief. Your belief system
becomes your truth. Most of
your beliefs you have not
consciously chosen, you were
taught them from the handed
down influences of society.
They do not belong to you,
mass consciousness beliefs
belong to those who choose
to believe in them. The
underlying energy of these
beliefs were written in the
scriptures thousands of
years ago for a very low
consciousness society.
Now due to an awakening
consciousness has allowed
technology to boom, to serve
humanity, but many still hold
onto to suffering and
disempowering unbalanced beliefs
that only create conflict
between the level of
consciousness and the standard
that most people live at – hard,
suffering, poverty
consciousness. ‘No Pain No Gain’
scenario. Do these beliefs still
serve you? If you search the
outer world for validation, if
you take on their beliefs, their
expectations and conformities,
you live and act out that story
game, and if you did not
consciously choose that truth,
it becomes your lie. Your
masquerade story lies is who you
think you are, but it is not who
you really are. You are not
being authentic to yourself and
this affects your wellbeing in
your physical reality. When you
take on the drama games of mass
consciousness, you act out that
game until you choose to release
it, to unleash old wounds and
set it free, for that game
allowed you to grow in
consciousness.
How you perceive and interpret
words comes from the 6 raw
materials in your reality.
a.Choice
is the seed of decision.
b.Decision is the first
step on that journey
c.Thoughts – you are what
you think
d.Emotions – you are what
you feel
e.Attitudes form your views
and opinions, whether real or
false
f.Beliefs are ultimately
governed by the above to form
your reality, your truth of how
you perceive and interpret an
experience. Yet, it is belief
that does a return circle to
make the same choice, decision,
thoughts, emotions and
attitudes, which form your
interpretations and perceptions.
Therefore changing your beliefs
and making new choices will
alter or influence all other
factors and what your
experiences are. If choice and
beliefs remain unchanged all the
others will stagnate and reality
will remain in a state of
inertia. For inertia to change
from a state of rest there has
to be an equal or greater force
to change it. It would be
changing your beliefs and then
making different choices.
When you are ready to ‘step
out of the mind’ to review
how you define your words,
perceptions and your story that
is when you will be ready to
change your beliefs and old
truths about yourself and your
reality. Your perceptions and
definition of your old story
identity will contain an
expanded wisdom, understanding
and acceptance from believing in
that old truth and through an
expanded vision you will change
not only how you perceive and
define the story of others, but
you will attract different
potential scenarios to you that
will serve you and inspire your
consciousness.
