I used to write a lot about transcending the mind and ego, until I realized that they’re actually necessary.
We can’t avoid or escape them, no matter how hard we try, because we aren’t meant to. We’re meant to use them in a progressive way that helps us explore our consciousness and understand the spiritual nature of our existence without hindrance or resistance, and keeping them open is one of the best ways to do this.
Even though they’re necessary, we’ll have a hard time exploring our consciousness or presenting spiritually inspired work to the rest of the conscious community if they’re closed. Sometimes, we really do have to let them rest and/or make sure they’re sufficiently opened, and when the mind’s closed, it tends to race from thought to thought, judgment to judgment and expectation to expectation.
Let’s allow all that to fade as we enter into the blissful silence that comes with successfully opening the mind and transcending the ego’s overbearing influence, but let’s keep in mind that we can still use them progressively and strive to awaken others with the mental tools we have at our disposal.
The mind’s an amazing thing, and it becomes even more amazing when we can open it and allow it to serve us along the evolutionary path. Only when its closed or rigid will it spell our undoing, and it’ll surprise and amaze us if we know how to use it the right way.
Will you keep your mind (and heart) open today?
Stay aware!
