Trying is the mind

Posted on by philipdodson

When we try that is the mind and when we do it comes from the soul.

We are all creators of some kind, that is what we are here for beyond the primary purpose of simply being. We are here to create experiences.

However, when we try, the thinking mind takes over, and the ego is consumed by the outcome and all the fears connected to the fantasy that is the future.

When the mind is thinking it sabotages, manipulates and over-engineers. We will never create when we are caught up in our mindstreams of uncertainty and projections.

When we allow the creative flow of the universe to flow through our heart and soul, it manifests the ‘doing’ in this moment now. It is not blocked by thought, it just flows. When we are simply focused on doing without thought, our best creations simply flow.

Ignore the outcome. Just start doing and enjoy the process of doing.

Back again

Posted on by philipdodson

Back here again, it’s been a while.

I had been blogging religiously, daily, for many years and then lost the habit. I tried a few times to rekindle the habit but with limited success. I thought I was ready to start again each time, but I wasn’t.

I’ve slowly been learning that it is totally OK. I am still worthy…really I am!

We are conditioned to believe that we always have to be doing something, achieving something and constantly busy. It is where we get our recognition from and our fragile ego craves it. If we are not achieving we believe we are a failure.

Our primary purpose is to simply ‘be’ and be in this moment now, to be conscious. Then we could choose to manifest other purposes and our soul will guide us to what they are. However, if all we do for our entire existence is to just be, then that is it.

So ‘back again’ in itself is irrelevant, I have never left. It is only my ego that needs to blog daily and achieve something. My soul just wants to share my gif with the world out of love.

The person we think we are is always vulnerable, the person we truly are is never vulnerable.

We can either think and suffer and be trapped within our thoughts or simply be and be at peace. We cannot do both.
