" In nature nothing is deformed, only the mind is evil."
William Shakespeare
We said that mind is reactive, not creative.
I was offended, mind remembers the episode, I try to forget, calm down, I can not. I am concerned, there is nothing to worry about, mind but goes on to suggest hypotheses, solutions, phrases, excuses. Even at night, in dreams. There is no reason, everything is fine, there's really nothing to be anxious, but I am. I do many things, time is enough but I am afraid of not succeeding. I am restless. I should not but I can not quiet.
I try to distract myself, I watch TV, walk, do sports, breath deeply, meditate, drink, talk too much or I lock myself in myself. Seeking to calm down. If mind was creative, to cancel the event, concern, re-would create the event in different ways, evoke new thoughts and emotions, I could mind if it was creative and had my , obey. I can not. I have to force myself to get a little 'peace, or distract, stun me.
Why mind reacts so, why not listen to me?
I have to beg for a return to calm through effort, concentration, distraction, breathing, meditation, a walk, groped to react differently mind, calm it, to convince subside. I can not do more. Does not obey, respond, was created for this. It is not under my control and can not be.
If you obey the mind, my species is already extinct.
If mind was under my control, the survival mechanism that houses it would be stifled. I would live quiet, contented, relaxed, happy, satisfied with life, from what I have and what it is. mind wants me instead anxious, worried, ambitious, never sated, never satisfied or happy. You want me to use my energy, forces, capabilities in the search for happiness that shows the image but that does not allow access.
A mind not care about my happiness. What is important is my survival.
Mind wants to keep me alive, make me react to situations, the environment, wants me worn out activities and concerns of frustrated desires, ambitions and hopes disappointed, because this is the best survival strategy that human nature can devise. Until mind have this reaction, in an environment that is and has always been hostile, abusive, with limited resources, with traps and dangers lurking, my survival will be.
A mind no matter if you never find peace, serenity, happiness. It is programmed to find them, but to make me look. Even if it were immersed in a sea of \u200b\u200bexcitement, is scheduled to keep me alive through the stimulation and the search continues. Riprodurmi and keep me alive in an environment (the original) in which not all survive, and not all playing. Maybe times have changed, mind but no. She is one of ten thousand years ago, is the model on which I built. That 's what I am.
" The meaning of life is to have fun with life."
Milan Kundera
The mechanism of denial of happiness that torments me, restlessness, dissatisfaction, searching for meaning in life, something has to be Adam has all the my ancestors to survive and procreate. I do not know if they have ever been happy, but I can guarantee that they survived and they had sex. Mind has fulfilled the primary function. Activating all the senses, resources, continuously, relentlessly, always reacting, dragging body where it wants, has been able to cope with a perpetually hostile environment, dangerous. It has allowed me to come to the world, preventing that my genetic line was blown away by nature averse even before I was born.
If mind is creative, not reactive, would not hold the challenges of survival.
creative mind would have asked why a life like the original one, its meaning. He would not have stood the challenge of pain, death, fatigue, privation. reactive mind offered survival. But I do not accept, I want to be different. I want control over myself, the reality in which I live, I want to channel my energy at will and achieve goals, not understanding mind.
not understand, do not accept, is the source of the effort to live, misunderstanding and pain.
not mind cause of suffering. Maybe not even mind deception. Suffering is not to accept what the mind is , illusion. You see the problems, failure, failures, when in reality there are only mechanisms that simply do not understand. You believe more body, which includes mind. E 'to go against the same original pilot that creation has added body, in me, who guides and directs.
" I" am the guest who has not understood to be. body is a wonderful gift, complete. The intervention of "me" is often just gets in the way in body and mind , not help.
" Men argue, nature acts."
Voltaire
