Breathing, Focus, Ego, and The Mind
The mind is by nature crystal clear like a pool of water
when the mind churns with fears and attachments
it is like a pebble being dropped into that clear pool of water
it causes ripples on the surface and stirs up the sediment in the bottom of the pool
When the mind is active with inner dialogue and subconscious fears
it causes toxins to form in the body
the mind can produce some of the most damaging toxins to the body
remember the mind is pure by nature
like that crystal clear pool
it is important to avoid toxic thoughts
everything is mind, this very moment is mind
there are three forms of Karma
thoughts
words
actions
Karma derives from the mind
Ego has a hold on the mind
your ego is who you think that you are
everything that you identify as you is ego
but those things fall away with every life and there is only pure self once again
when one thought occurs another one occurs directly from it
as a ripple effect
if one keeps the mind clear with no thoughts and no inner dialogue
then that uncontrollable chatter of the mind begins to dissipate
the mind becomes clear
the person becomes centered
thought is pure once again
how does one achieve pure mind?
Pure mind is a clear mind
how does one reduce inner dialogue?
how does one stop the that neurotic chatter in the mind?
simply stop thinking
breath deeply
inhale for three seconds and hold the breath for three seconds
exhale for three seconds
flex the mullah banda on the exhale
do it for 20 minutes laying on your back
if you can’t sleep and your mind is racing
try and step away from that chatter in your head
and observe your thoughts
no matter what the thoughts
let them flow
watch them without judgement
you are not your thoughts
breath
let the mind flow
keep the physical body clean
eat more raw fruits and vegetables
use herbs to cleanse the body
remember your mind is pure
it is a crystal clear pool of water
if you are dealing with loss or grief or trauma
it is very important to keep the mind clear
do not talk to yourself inside your head
instead try and stop the language inside your mind
the language that you use to speak to yourself with
to make up judgments
to justify your behavior
to protect yourself from hurt
let go of that voice, the ego
just breath and breath and breath
go deep
until your body tingles with prana
feel the chi inside your stomach flowing
everything is flowing through you and out of you
flushing out the toxic thoughts
Yoga can help you work out a problem
by allowing you to contemplate a problem without creating toxic thoughts
caused by fear and attachment from the ego
with Yoga you can move and breath deeply into that problem
let it flow through you and truly see the situation from a different point of view
the mind is pure
you are pure
you are the awakened consciousness of the universal mind
and by breathing deeply and letting go of your thoughts the universal mind
will flow through you and your inner dimensions will become your outer dimensions
and you will see that pure thought derives from the pureness of your soul
and the essence of who you are
which is a divine living being that embodies love and radiance
you are that
crystal clear and pure
