My Aphorisms

 

• You and you alone give permanence to a thought and protect it by thinking about it.

• Neither are you the body, the mind, the breath , the ears or the eyes, these are different manifestations of the mind.

• The motivation thought strata is the first thought to sub-consciously arrive when you want to do or say anything to anybody. The same can be observed when others are doing something or talking

• When you have stopped thinking and started "knowing" - Intuition works best and you are perceiving. It is also one way to realize that you are in a meditative state and functioning in higher chakras. Life and its experiences then become a study.

• The "I" thought itself is another thought isnt it ? It was programmed since childhood, is there something called "I" ? Whats the "I", its not my hand, legs, heart, brain, or mind? Its just another thought created in the mind dammit :-)

• Am I one or two ? There is an Observer and then a Thinker/Talker within me. The observer uses physical eyes to see the world and the mental eye (third eye) to observe thoughts.

• The underlying reason for anger is fear.

• The underlying reason for fear is attachment

• When in an argument in a conversation realize that you have gone down to the Svadhistana chakras which are of the odic nature. Self doubt, limitations about ones capability comes only when one hits the lower three chakras - Svadhistana, Muladhara and manipura.

• Know that you are an actinic being with infinite willpower and live in contemplation in the upper chakras namely - anahat, visuddha and ajna

• When you "know" you need to do something soon and don’t do it because you "think" of various reasons why you cant do it - you are repeating mistakes and progress will be decelerated.

Aphorisms

Mind is like a river. It flows through well known channels. These well known channels define our behavior as to how we interact with people. This is what we normally call attutude.

If these paths of the river are wrongly programmed, they need to be reprogrammed appropriately keeping the final goal in mind.

For that to happen there has to be a sub-superconscious cognition of the mind as an object. a this can happen by using the method used by Ramana Maharshi - I am not this, i am not that - disidentifying oneself from all self created illusions until im able to see sub-superconsciously the mind as an object.

Conscious mind Aphorism

There is but one mind. The consciousness or the ego functions in its various phases - Instinctive, intellectual or intuitive phases. The one-tenth of the mind is of the conscious plane. It is carried on by itself in ramification. The objective is to control the conscious mind and be consciously conscious.

To achieve this I currently need to pay attention to these aspects
1: Since the objective is to control the conscious mind : locate the source of the energies that are flowing through the senses & mind.
2: Regulate the breath and don't allow the intellect & instincts to run their own course
