Covering up

Whatever we cover our fear with, physically or mentally, it will never go away until we realise that all the things we fear are not real. They are psychological fears created by the projection of our mind into the fantasy that is the future. We create it all in our own heads.

The other thing is, our fears of what might happen, actually create what might happen. We manifest what our thoughts are. What we think, act and do now, creates our future.

If we stay always in this moment, fear can not exist and then we have no reason to cover ourselves physically or mentally with anything.

We can be free to enjoy being and being truly ourselves.

‘normal’ life

By Philip Dodson

When we enter the mind and our thoughts, then our awareness of the world around us and our own self disappears. We are in a trance.

We do not notice anything other than our thoughts, even though we might be driving a car, eating food, walking in a beautiful place, working, in a meeting, or whatever else we are doing. Even the sounds, smells, noises and so on fade away and our entire ‘reality’ becomes our thoughts. People speak, but. we do not hear them, only through the filter of our mind. Our thoughts are still the dominant focus.

So actually we miss the thing we are doing and instead our focus is on the thought and the train of thoughts that drag us along, further away from awareness and consciousness.

This can last a few seconds, a few minutes or a lot longer. In fact, intermittently, it could last an entire lifetime. If we were offered at the beginning of our life to just spend it in our heads, in our thoughts, most of which repeat, again and again, we would all decline it.

Yet, this life of thought is what is seen as ‘normal’ life.
