Is There an Inside, a Within? (no-me: battle of the mind, we are born with)

Human beings are born with the mind,

We cannot deny this gift,

it's precious, and it's cursed...

 

It's what has been manifested for ages,

And only those who are being subdued to what is outside,

That is being slaves to desire/fear etc.../are subjects to unreasonable

suffering,

That is not knowing the consequences of the mental activity,

 

The only way to get rid of the mind,

Is by the use of the mind,

It's very intelligent,

But it cannot answer its own question of

" Who am I? " ...

 

Realized, I am now,

If no question is given,

The mind gives answers,

Constant babababababababab and non-sense,

 

If one's conscious or aware of this mind-battle,

One should quit it by asking many questions,

 

What is going on?

Who is doing this?

What am I thinking?

To whom are these thoughts...?

What am I to worry about?

To whom are all desire and fear?

 

And of course,

What am I? or

Who am I?

 

No matter how smart or

endlessly wandering the mind is,

Is must be coming back to the source...

 

Work on the breath retention,

Hold that breath if one has to...

We'll see how long can the mind be wandering?

 

Who am I?

 

~no-me~

there is only one soul

 

there is no logic existing to give this one soul a definition

 

if the soul could be written down in a definition......everything

would disappear....in just a moment of time

 

i know how deep are the attachments to this appearing world....which

is nothing but fiction......

the source of this fiction is nothing else but the ego-mind

 

an ego-mind is used to sit there....calculating, thinking, inventing,

playing, writing, sleeping......

nearly impossible for an ego-mind to " imagine " something else

 

but there we are.....

 

when the intellect come to an end....with all possible

imaginations.....and still being unsatisfied.....means, with restless

mind

then there is soul appearing.....the inner voice of truth......

 

the key to hear this voice....is deep inner love......

 

and there we are.....

 

when this inner love is missing......there is complete

confusion.....coming...and going.....

just like dream during sleep is coming....and going.....daily

 

 

wish your heart....leaving a message
