What a swizz

We are so conditioned to be driven by the outcome or result.

Our society is based on winners and losers, achievements and other things that can be easily measured by increases, like a bigger salary, a bigger house, a bigger job and so on.

The obsession with productivity, action and results is not enriching our lives it is killing our souls instead.

It is the biggest swizz of more modern history and the industrial age. We have allowed our worth to be linked to what we do or have. It’s great for keeping us as cogs in the machine, slaves to work, slaves to a lifestyle, slaves to debt, slaves to the mind.

An alternative is to accept that we are born worthy and will die worthy no matter what we achieve or have, thus freeing us from the conditioning and the mind to allow our souls to be free.

We can still do whatever we want, but we do not let it define or enslave us.

We imprison ourselves

We build a life through our own imagined self-image and imprison ourselves in it. We stay stuck in jobs, with friends, with partners and so on, fearing to break free, fearing to upset, fearing to be our true selves. We go against our true self, we resist it, we allow ourselves to be trapped in our self-created imaginary life.

We become attached to things and people, and even when we instinctively want to do something or get rid of something, we stay trapped in the attachment we have built. We do not accept that every form is temporary and we are flowing on a journey. Not everything has to be there forever, we can move on from things, people, jobs and so on.

Freedom is being truly ourselves and not being attached or dependent on things or others.
