Dear Ones,
We’ve come down to wish you well, to be at peace with yourself.
Do not make an unnecessary enemy of the mind.
Try to understand that the mind has its purposes, and instead of blaming it on the negative programs, emotions, whatnots, ask where did that originate from ?
Where/who/how did that all happen ? This takes some practice, and this is a task you can certain uptake for yourself. As with a lot of lessons, in the beginning, you may find you fail miserably. Fear not! Try again!
Some traditions have come up with exquisite ways to let the mind slip into silence
1. short-circuit itself into silence 2. meditate itself unto silence 3. drug your mind into silence
Is silence a good thing to have ? Yes and No.
Yes, for some investigation into the Dharma, the Silence will come anyhow. This is a natural progression as the mind goes into silence watching itself. This is not a state that is manufactured, or created artificially.
No, specially if your baby is looking at you bewilderly and expecting you to feed him. (kidding) – particularly, if you are into the habit of slamming your thoughts into the ground, or busily burying them into the ground. Not because we want to confuse with the description of the baby looking curiously at you, but it’s that everything that has a charge, even if you bury 100,000 feet within the earth, still will has a charge!
So hence, the question we would ask those – for the manufactured silence – does it serve its purpose in getting to what you are looking for ?
Here’s an interesting experiment ~
Go out into a large grassland/field with not much obstacles.
Shout. Sit and Emerse yourself relaxing your glance onto the Sky. ( We are not discussing the blue or cloudy or weathery conditions here, but just take a look at the sky ).
We would rest assure you, the silence is defeatening to some of you. To some, that kind of open space is frightening. To some, you seems to hold your breath for some reason. To some, it brings you a great sense of connectedness.
For the same reasons, each of you responds differently to this experiment. And there is some connection between your Universal Mind with that open Sky. That glance into the open Sky ? It is liken to peeking into the true Nature of Universal Mind.
May all of you be blessed with Great Presence within, and find that Source of everlast Peace, Joy, Compassion ~~ –The Lords and Masters of the Akashic Records
