Mental Obsession Discussion: Recent Episodes
We Know Jack.
We have no licenses, degrees, diplomas, or authority beyond our experience to qualify us for this discussion. We are not here to argue, tell the truth, or pose as any academic or scientific thesis, medical diagnosis, prognosis, prescription, cure, discipline, or philosophy. This discussion is apolitical and not a replacement or in opposition to any religion, theology, or any practice, therapy, protocol, ritual, you choose to follow. It is suggested you take direction from anyone you are free to rely on including professionals. Neither is this a suggestion to suspend skepticism when due or question any questionable authority. This is not a course, class, or teaching though it can increase your sense of thought-full awareness as we look accurately at and undo obsessive thoughts. We can dis-spell the broken words used in the immoral stories we tell and the rumors we spread to reinforce the excuses we use as lies while thinking they can be hidden. Trying to turn what is false into truth, is to think lies can be turned into reality. Twisting what is wrong into right or right into wrong turns our stomachs and actions against our nature. This impossible attempt is a broken fixation and the primary cause of addiction so reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors are the natural consequence of this unnatural behavior. Our discussion does not ask or require understanding, belief, faith, trust, hope, or agreement. Considering what you read and hear is like learning how well shoes fit by walking in them. First impressions are not always reliable. Waking thought to what we know confirms our nature is bright and the seeming dense, defensive, dark fractured mental state experienced during chronic flurries of obsessive thoughts are expressing something is wrong. Self Realization and Self Actualization is the realization that what is actually happening, is happening. Humility is having things as they are not in greater or lesser terms we can make up. Humility is honesty, acceptance and the concession things are as they are no matter what we think. Reactions and responses are guides as posted signs of our body’s language. Reactions are defensive while responses are considerate aligned with our natural awakened contemplative state and meditation. Our functional literacy and capacity is determined by well we read our body’s language, or how well we are thinking about what is actually happening. Nature is function’s guide. Dysfunction is evidence of unnatural addictive thoughts. Our natural functional capacity is useful, valuable, generous and productive since we are naturally abundant. Introducing thought to what we know and share allows thought to Rest In Peace on earth rather than wait till we’re in it. We are accurate observers of our experience or we would not know when something is wrong. If you suffer from obsessive thinking you know it though you may not think so or know why. We're here to talk about it. Thanks for your presence and response-ability. Questions, comments, topics? contact@mentalobsession.com

"Evil destroys even itself."
Aristotle.
" Experience is not what happens to you; it is what you do with what happens to you."
Aldous Huxley
The word evil is live, and devil is lived spelled backward. Lies are backward forms of thought imagining false is true or truth is false. Whenever we choose to think this way inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish indicate we know something is wrong and is an admission we know better.
Obsessive thoughts are highly reactive and manufacture an insane split personality we call ego to assign blame. Splitting atoms causes a chain reaction by splitting adjacent atoms that release their tremendous energy just as mental hyper reactivity triggers harmful behaviors in our nuclear family of humankind. When nuclear reactors lose control of the loo atomic energy meltdowns occur. When our struggle to maintain our seeming self as a split personality is literaly out of control emotional and nervous breakdowns, called meltdowns, often result from the pent-up pressure of anxiety and stress stored in our bodies - as present traumatic stress. We each pull our own triggers even while claiming we were triggered
Wrong thoughts are not a problem until they are believed in as right. Belief, like any lie, is an opinion imagined to be true. Reality and Truth do not require, ask for, or demand belief or to be thought of at all to Be exactly as They Are. That which does not change is not changed by thinking.
All forms of social ills, anti-social behaviors, and defective actions follow this broken line of irrational thinking. Self-righteous indignation is never right as its basis is an impossible fight to turn thinking into reality, while it is imagined. This insanity has led to suppressing, oppressing, and killing people who think differently than their aggressor. This form of justified fighting is happening today - simply because the root of this thinking has not been talked about openly and accurately to dissolve the reactive impulsive rather than justify resolutions that lead to what can seem like different problems while this fractured state of defective thinking is the same.
Fantasy as reality is insanity. We are not afraid of dying we are afraid to have Life's light shine on our dark shadows and reveal the self we think we are is smoke and mirrors, since it is a lie, not our reality.

Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune that are accurately called disorders. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse Nature’s Law and Order and our Universe's Essence. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and compound and degrade health.
Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment. For as long as it is misdiagnosed - any cure or treatment will perpetuate its contagion.
Principles affirm Our Indivisible nature. Sharing Principles confirms our natural indivisibility. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is an unnatural choice to oppose reality which is impossible to accomplish though we are free to try.
Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible gibberish of ignorance - not reality.

MOD concepts have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each episode will always reflect the moving fluid nature of current events.
Sobriety provides a level of existing clarity previously denied. Looking honestly at mental problems is difficult while obsessed with acting out of order, against any favorable interests, by opposing instinct’s nature that naturally guides us to survive and thrive.
Emotional sobriety is sane living. Compulsive behaviors never favor our interests. A good example is imagining addiction is an escape into safety by denying actual Reality. Sick thoughts imagine stellar results while fertilizing the degradation and reckless abandon of pitiful consequences.

"The horizon of many people is a circle with a radius of zero. They call this their point of view."
Albert Einstein.
It is not a loss of memory but the lack of human perspective we suffer by imagining all that we are is the subject of subjective thought. A dimension of zero has no perspective in space and time - so any imagined self has no value, awareness, or place since it has no life being wholly imagined. Feeling like you don't belong is caused by thoughts that have no basis, and so no place in Reality. To think imagination is reality is to think reality is fantasy and turns the extraordinary benefit of imagination into a dire liability.
Thinking is not the source of existence while it is the primary source of human experience. Thinking naturally offers the potential to exist humanely and the freedom to mis-think and act inhumane. Nature is natural and so it is our nature. Insanity is a byproduct of unnatural, unhealthy, abnormal obsessive thinking. Social ills are the collective nature of sick thoughts: mental illness.
Any clamoring voices in our heads are attached to ideas that are only thought to be true, masquerading as all that can be. The reactive nature of addiction starts with denial that we are not causing the experience we have. To think of mental suffering as happening to us is to think we have nothing to do with what and how we think. The inducement and imposition of thoughts in conflict starts with our choices and the decsion they are right, while that is never if ever the case. Limited thoughts always have room from improvement. Absolute Right never changes since there is no more or less an Infinite Source can or will ever Be.

Abstinence is sanity for any compulsive behavior.
Emotional Sobriety is living sanely once abstinent.
Addiction is a mental problems. Obsessive thougths are not a product of wrong thoughts - but imagning they are right. We are not here to talk about stopping but to come to terms with the fact that we each are Responsible for what we start - and its consqeunces.
Principles are Absolute. They never change. The primary mental failing is imagining they do while it is our thinking about them that does.
Abstinence, Right thinking and right action are the aim of symptomatic recovery and emotional sobriety.
The degree to which we correct any misidentification or misunderstanding about the functional capacity of our body, brain, feelings, words or behaviors or determines whether we choose from the desperation and dysfunction or rely on our natural functional capacity of Inspiration, Intuituion and Wisdom.
Sobriety is not about acting right but the natural able flexibility of correcting wrongs.
The body cannot process highly processed forms of nature, like alcohol, drugs, refined sugar or highly processed food.
The brain, in the body, cannot process insanity: highly processed mental fixations on fictional, imagination believed to be reality.
All matter in the universe has substance, including our human body and conscoiusness. Lies are simply possibilities of thought with no substance - including the thoughts determining they are true, real and always right.

Responsibility is the ability to respond - responsibly.
Accountablity is the ability to count. Accounting done correctly adds up. Feeling like you don't count is the natural byproduct of thoughts that don't add up since they have no substantive basis. ALL Reality has substance. While substance is largely invisible it is also indivisible - which means it has no parts or pieces to separate or divide so cannot be in conflict. To think we can be separate from It is to think divisively about it and feel disconnected and alone is the natural byproduct of feeling unsubstantive thoughts.
Essence is essential and not optional. Indivisbility cannot be added to, reduced or fractured. IT IS Perfect Peace Silent and Still Presence. We now this or could not notice conflicts or disturbances. Splitting thougths into fractional concepts with a denominator of zero means no numerator can not be big enought to amount to anyting. When enough is never enough the mental impossbility of turning thoughts into reality has been induced. We do not struggle with Reality, Truth or LIfe. Our mentality struggles with how and what we think of them - along with the imagined self we can think we've become. Addiction is not impossible - but to continue the same thinking while wishfully hoping more insanity will resolve the problem only addes fuel to the fire of more obsessive thinking imagining nothing else can ever be done.
If we didn't know better there would be nothing we could do.

When we are accountable things add up so we feel like we count. Absolute Reality has no reservations or exceptions. We can think IT does and feel isolated and alone while nursing baseless thoughts.
We do not need to understand any story we make-up to recognize the disturbing effects caused by sick thinking.
The idea that facing Reality is complicated is not true. Trying to avoid it for any length of time is infinitely more complicated than facing it honestly. We Know We Know and are also readily and obviously aware even while and when we think and this say we aren’t.
We are free to choose to think whatever and however we think so when we create a sense of condemnation and doom it is the sum of how and what we are thinking about things that is felt.
Practicing this is talking about how and what you think openly and honestly as thought. Taking seriously the idea that thoughts are reality turns the idea of expressing what we are thinking openly into a seeming external threat - that does not feel funny no matter how silly the premise.
Honesty does not require we be right. Honesty includes talking openly about whatever we are thinking about right or wrong. To chronically think thoughts are right and never apply them is like sitting in the couch all day wondering how to be productive. Thinking we ever keep these ideas to our seeming self becomes another secret we think we can keep even while we secrete blood, sweat and anxious, pitiful tears. Self-pity reflects the pitiful useless self we think is all we are. Usefulness is determined by how well we read our body language. Our functional literacy determines the degree to which we utilize our full functional capacity. If our limited thoughts are imagine to be Reality the potential to rehabilitated and redeem any useless thinking will, by choice, be limited as evidence our wrong thoughts are right. We can create a mess and then blame the mess for the scarcity of our situation. This only makes sense in induced insanity. To impose doubt where there is none is something we are free to do - but it doesn’t make any sense beyond the limited ideas we make believe are our own seeming reality and truth.
The basis of Existence is Absolute and thus so is Nature. The nature of Nature is our nature; no exceptions, no other options, no doubts since there is no question. All the questionable doubts we encounters are not mysteries of the universe but a mystery as to why we don't bother to simply mention them.

Ego = I. When I am talking to myself there must be a person in second place I am talking to. And if I am trying to fix that self that is pretty good evidence I think of it as broken while real enough to fix. Imposter syndrome is not an accident. People talk about voices in their head. This split personality is an induced form of schizophrenia.
Ego as a false self is a narrative created to blame for thoughtless shameful choices. This semi-clever ruse of twisted language has been developed to have insanity appear sane, normal and moral. The fact that it has no basis or substance is of little consequence to the maker believing in it. Illusions as reality is induced insanity. All matter and things that matter have substance - lies do not.
We have developed a story around all we are is who and what we think we are. If we think how and what we think is reality, then we think there is no other reality. To face an illusions as reality can have us think we can turn our back on Reality while Reality does not flinch. Thinking insanely about reality does not change Reality it dysfunctionally changes our mentality. The fact that we can think we have nothing to do with anything precedes the thought that we have no place, value or benefit to offer anyone.
Lies foster lies so trying to fix a lie while lying is to continue to maintain baseless, worthless ideas about everything. We cannot be what we have so think we become liars makes the idea of not lying seem preposterous since it would involve killing the self we identify as our self. That which has no life cannot be killed - though while we think it is real, just like a nighmare, it feels real till we wake up. Thinking is not the problem. What and how we think, once we think it is reality and truth, becomes a highly suspect fight for a life that never existed. Obsessvive thinking is an unnatural attempt to turn our thoughts into reality by using pain to claim the effort must be true. If insanity were sane it wouldn't be hard to admit. Insane thoughts are easy to fix once we see they are something we are choosing rather than who, what and how we are.

Before discussing the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and how they can be applied to all compulsive behaviors and obsessive thoughts consider this: Identifying the mental problem of addiction, like diagnosing any disease, includes the individual identifying with the problem as the only one who can diagnose their problem effectively. If we are free to choose what and how we think - then we are each solely able to determine how and what we do with the problems and suffering we create.
Focal points: The steps are based on principles. Principles do not change. There is nothing simpler than that which does not change and nothing is easier to complicate than thinking otherwise. Principles are natural and fundamental to our existence. Principles like our Absolute State of Being is not a choice - “They” Have Us - we cannot let go of them. Unprincipled, immoral, irresponsible, unstable thoughts are unnatural choices to make believe how we think about Reality, Truth, Life, Light and Love - determines our life rather than concede we are determined by them: Absolutely.
Responsiblity, Choice and Freedom are all Absolute Natural States of human nature. Consideration is not a conviction but an awakened - eyes wide open deliberation as a meditative contemplation.

“It’s not the strongest species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the most responsive to change.”
Charles Darwin
Responsiveness is the ability to respond - Responsibly.
Reactiveness, like righteousness. is an automated fight for right that is wrong.
Reactivity precedes impulsivity and immediately triggers compulsive behaviors. Obsessive thoughts are reactive, defensive, defiant denial, and so delusional. None of this activity can be kept secret since all obsessive, sick thoughts compel compulsive behaviors - and are also seen in the blood, sweat and tears we suffer. Subtle or obvious compulsive behaviors are admissions of knowing something is wrong.

The contagion of mentally obsessive thinking is not carried by bacteria or viruses but toxic silence when thoughtful but not always welcome words could help, or by speaking up with words that reinforce the sick thoughtlessness of this induced mental state. The imposition of this addiction is not a state of Mind but of a brain that has been mis-used and abused by imagining it is the creator of reality and truth and our self. It is not and we are not who we think we are.

Obsessive thinking does not hear what is said but what is thought to be said. Nor does it see what is visibly clear but only what is thought to be seen. To hear and see things that don’t exist is well defined as insanity. Definitions are explicit. Connotations are used to claim semantics reduce our culpability.
Thinking about our self is a hallmark of so-called selfish, self centered, self serving problems. To worship thought and reason as our god is to imagine there is no other reality or truth. Healthy species do not act irrationally. Mental health determines our physical and societal health.
The natural process of change occurs every moment as all that is happening adapts to all that is newly happening now. Denial induces a sense of psychic anesthesia sufficient to imagine acting oblivious to what is obvious makes sense.. Fear naturally notices this risk. Any fixation requires thoughts be held like chained hostages, against change, to maintain their fierce compliance with baseless ideas. Trying to get over by feeling better about the discomforting feelings has the effect seem like the cause to maintain the lie we have nothing to do with it.
Even within the debate over evolution vs. creation the process of change is encouraged to muster sufficient faith that never seems to be enough to finally qualify the believer as worthy of a connection to any named creator.
To fight for finite ideas as absolute is to use hyper- reactive desperation to defend and pretend that false ideals as divine. This twist leads to imagining the effects we produce and feel are caused by a separate deity so pitiful as to have created us so we can be singled out, hated and destroyed. This deity is what we call ego - a false self. To think of the basis of our relations as dammed is to think of damning behavior as the only right thing to do. Holy shit is not accidental terminology as it openly though wrongly confirms wasteful, thoughtless ideas as our only possibility. It is our thinking we feel so profoundly. The Self we share indivisibly allows us to see disturbances clearly. This permanence is not obsessive but Ever-Present Omniscience. We would not know so clearly what is wrong if we did not have an Absolute basis in Truth and Reality that Is Right.
Self Realization and Self Actualization are intimately seamless partners actually realizing all that is happening Now.
If this IS so - so Be It. Things are not as they seem but as they are. We are not as we seem but as We Are. Thinking is something we do. We cannot Be or become what and how we think as it is unbending to imagine we do

Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts purely induced, “imagined reality”.
While the Absolute nature of Life is an unadulterated gift - we earn our human experience. Good or bad, like it or not, it is how and what we incorrectly think of Life, Reality, and Truth that reflect in the consequential forms of conflicted dysfunctional human incapacities blamed on life and human nature, while neither are true. It is not Life that is impossible, hard, or a struggle but imagining that our thoughts about Life are omnipotent and as a result righteously unchangeable. This addictive mental trend has the world of things and people seem in chronic need of repair while maintaining we are not capable of causing such conflicts we perpetuate the problem. This induced form of insanity once seen clearly is laughable yet until then taking it seriously starts with inner conflict, emotional turmoil and mental anguish leading to dramatic episodes of harm and violence. The predatory history of humans starts with a wholly imagined enemy only imagined real.
Acting like we’re in a coma to maintain unnatural desensitized conditions does not affect our essence but causes over-dramatic mental and inter-reactive dysfunctional consequences. We choose how and what we think - and this news is good or bad dependent on how accurately we observe the effects of those choices and thus note the mental cause and reckon with it accurately and honestly
Our struggle is never with Reality or Truth but with mentality.

If we can talk about waiting for a sign while ignoring the signs we’re given we can also begin to notice the clarity of our feelings accurately assessing our thoughts. Displaced thought causes the sensation of not belonging and having no place or purpose. To imagine thought as reality then thinking we have no other option is an indication we are aware that Reality is Real and not optional. To think this form of circular thinking is reality is to think fantasy is reality and there must be no other reality. Wrong thoughts imagined right create interminable impulsive urges. Lies are backward conclusions claiming to be what they can never be: True. Thought serving thought can be used to imagined there is a life to be saved through reactive, imulsive and compulsive behaviors that desensitize through the psychic numbing agent of denial our responsiveness and natural flex-ability to adjust by responding to circumstances sanely.
To think we have no place, don’t belong or fit then try to find that place out there, somewhere as a distraction from the thoughtlessness felt confirms the wrong of the thought we're having, thought to be right, right here, right now. The head space of our head case is the mentality not Reality from which we suffer. To think what and how we think is real is to think there is no other option.

“It’s not the strongest species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the most responsive to change.”
Charles Darwin
Responsiveness is the ability to respond - Responsibility.
Reactiveness is an automated fight for what is right while wrong.
Reactivity precedes impulsivity and immediately triggers compulsive behaviors. Obsessive thoughts are reactive, defensive, defiant denial, and so delusional. None of this activity can be kept secret since all obsessive, sick thoughts compel noticeable impulsive, and compulsive behaviors. Subtle or obvious compulsive behaviors are admissions of knowing something is wrong.
"The horizon of many people is a circle with a radius of zero. They call this their point of view."
Albert Einstein.
It is not a loss of memory but the lack of human perspective we suffer by imagining all that we are is the subject of subjective thought. A dimension of zero has no perspective in space and time - so any imagined self has no value, awareness, or place since it has no life being wholly imagined. Feeling like you don't belong is caused by thoughts that have no basis, and so no place in Reality. To think imagination is reality is to think reality is fantasy and turns the extraordinary benefit of imagination into a dire liability.
Thinking is not the source of existence while it is the primary source of human experience. Thinking naturally offers the potential to exist humanely and the freedom to mis-think and act inhumane. Nature is natural and so it is our nature. Insanity is a byproduct of unnatural, unhealthy, abnormal obsessive thinking. Social ills are the collective nature of sick thoughts: mental illness.

Any clamoring voices in our heads are attached to ideas that are only thought to be true, masquerading as all that can be. The reactive nature of addiction starts with denial that we are not causing the experience we have. To think of mental suffering as happening to us is to think we have nothing to do with what and how we think. The inducement and imposition of thoughts in conflict starts with our choices and the decsion they are right, while that is never if ever the case. Limited thoughts always have room from improvement. Absolute Right never changes since there is no more or less an Infinite Source can or will ever Be.

" Evil destroys even itself."
Aristotle.
" Experience is not what happens to you; it is what you do with what happens to you."
Aldous Huxley
The word evil is live, and devil is lived spelled backward. Lies are backward forms of thought imagining false is true or truth is false. Whenever we choose to think this way inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish indicate we know something is wrong and is an admission we know better.
Obsessive thoughts are highly reactive and manufacture an insane split personality we call ego to assign blame. Splitting atoms causes a chain reaction by splitting adjacent atoms just as reactive behaviors trigger reactivity in our nuclear family of humankind. When nuclear reactors lose control of the release of atomic energy meltdowns occur. When our struggle to maintain our seeming self as a split personality gets out of control we have emotional and nervous breakdowns, often called meltdowns, resulting from the pent-up pressure of anxiety and stress stored in our bodies.
Wrong thoughts are not a problem until they are believed in as right. Belief, like any lie, is an opinion imagined to be true. Reality and Truth do not require, ask for, or demand belief or to be thought of at all to Be exactly as They Are. That which does not change is not changed by thinking.
All forms of social ills, anti-social behaviors, and defective actions follow this broken line of irrational thinking. Self-righteous indignation is never right as its basis is an impossible fight to turn thinking into reality, while it is imagined. This insanity has led to suppressing, oppressing, and killing people who think differently than their aggressor. This form of justified fighting is happening today - simply because the root of this thinking has not been talked about openly and accurately to dissolve the reactive impulsive rather than justify resolutions that lead to what can seem like different problems while this fractured state of defective thinking is the same.
Fantasy as reality is insanity. We are not afraid of dying we are afraid to have Life's light shine on our dark shadows and reveal the self we think we are is smoke and mirrors, since it is a lie, not our reality.

Having to do something is a very different experience than having something to do. Our approach determines whether our landing is safe or not. How and what we think are choices. That we think is simply something we do. We cannot be what we do any more than we can do more to Be. To be or not to be still seems to be the question begging, pleading, and praying for an answer. Seeking more can never be enough to find that which has never and cannot be lost. .
That which is happening as it happens is very different than asking why, where, when, what, and how things happening could or should possibly be happening. Witnessing something happen and then thinking it is unbelievable is an indication of how flimsy belief is since it is a product of thought; that is so flexible as to allow us to misuse it by blaming and abusing others for what they think as a distraction from the thinking we have chosen.
That IT IS - is stable - As IT IS since what is not in question has no doubt. Pain monitors what is wrong - to misread its cues is to ask for and receive more troubling news. Functional literacy accurately reads our body language - assigning feelings to how and what we are thinking about what is happening - not who we are but what and how we utilize thought; as something we do. We cannot be what we do any more than we become a foot arm or leg by thinking about them.
We do not struggle with Life, Love, or Reality - we struggle with what we think about IT, and whether we like or dislike what we think.

It is not negative to share thoughts. Negating freely chosen thoughts creates the impression we are not free as long as mentality is thought of as reality. Ego's modern definition is a false self. What is false has no basis in reality. To think that it does lines up with the common idea that ego is an overtly grandiose entity that acts on us in unexpected ways. This modern formalization of ego as real, suggests that illusions and fantasy are reality - while they are mental imagery. Thinking about thinking itself does not create our self - it creates more and more obsessive thoughts about who we think we are, what we think of life, and how we think of reality and truth. To imagine we are the creators of reality is to think all we are is what we think. Low "self-esteem" is not an accident or coincidence it is a consequence of imagining insanity is reality.

Thinking that thought will get us there is to think we are not here. If we are here there is no then or there to get nor is there any more or less of this, or that, to have. To not have what we have is to think we have to have something else, somewhere else that is "not there" while it is thought that is lacking. Feeling like we have no place, belonging nowhere, is a common effect of obsessive thinking.
Thoughtlessness is the source of addiction since more or less will never be enough and when enough is never enough there is no hope. Hopelessness in this case is an accurate assessment of an impossible condition. Yet to consider that we are hopeless is to presume wrongly that we are only what we think we are - and so think feeling better or getting over our feelings is the model for escape into compulsive activities that never works since what is denied only gets worse.
As long as we think we have nothing to do with the idea thinking there is nothing we can do about it naturally follows to justify continuing to do what seems to be the only thing possible. To think we have nothing to do with something is to imagine it possible we could have nothing to do with everything. This is a suicidal thought since it would only be possible if we did not exist. There is no justification or rationalization in Truth as Reality.
This deception underlies all compulsive behaviors and leads to suicide in obvious or slowly less dramatic compulsive ways. Induced insanity manifests anxiety, pressure, and stress that undermines all of our bodily ability to maintain stability. When insane thoughts are used to develop rational ideas it is just another irrational perpetuation of the same induced insanity. Our greater sense and body know there is an emergency and increasing the threat level is never an effective solution.

The idea that imagination can be turned into reality is the delusion that reality is make-believe. If Reality and Truth are Absolute then there is nothing missing. Scarce thoughts cannot conceive of abundance.
Thoughts are imagined and imagination is the basis of creativity, innovation, and our capacity to function considerately and beneficially for all that are and all that is. Thoughts trans"form" existing physical forms. Manifesting effects is very different, and easy to take credit for, than thinking we create reality and then chronically struggle for undue credit.
Acting in"formed" sees we are transforming experience and all that surrounds us for as much and as long as we think. This is not magic or a miracle since it is natural.
Addiction is a trigger that we make up and pull. To imagine reactive, impulsive, and compulsive tendencies as happening to us is how the persistent idea we have nothing to do with it is maintained. To consider this threat as external is to deny the thinking that is causing it.
Our discussion is simple: Try, Rely, and Apply. This is not a debate nor is any belief, faith, hope, or agreement required. All that is asked is to consider any possibility to be possible. Inspiration is natural. Desperation is a product of thought. To have the right to freely choose our thoughts then choose to think about the most fundamental aspect of our existence incorrectly - and think we are right - makes no sense. Nonsense lacks sense and a lack of sense is unintelligible. We talk about common sense but fail to mention horn uncommon it has become.
Responsiveness is a sign of life, for life forms. To react over and over again to defend what is wrong is a fight for non-existence. To think we have nothing to do with our expedience is to think we can do nothing about it and so continue on auto-pilot. To think we have nothing to do with anything is to imagine we can have nothing to do with everything. This is a suicidal tendencies and while we worship the reason that creates it is becomes a suicidal ideation. Since this opposes our natural instinct to survive and thrive it can be easily defined as insane.
Problems are solved as soon as they are understood. To misunderstand that we create problems is to hopelessly try everything else before admitting it. The road of this narrative is a long as we choose.

Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse the Law and Order of our Universe's Essence. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment. For as long as it is misdiagnosed - any cure or treatment will perpetuate its contagion.
Principles affirm Our indivisible nature. Sharing Principles confirms our natural indivisibility. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is an unnatural choice to oppose reality
Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible jibbersh of ignorance - not reality.

This link is to the video we discussed today - of physicist Frederico Faggan's insight and experience with Reality: https://vimeo.com/703130979
Our discussion is not about the infertility of mass-debation or coming to new echoes of chronic thoughtless terms but conceding Life’s terms are currently in perfect order and place. That what is happening as it happens is very different than asking why, where, when, what, and how things happening could or should possibly be happening. Witnessing something happen and then thinking it is unbelievable is an indication of how flimsy belief is since it is a product of thought; that is so flexible as to allow us to misuse it in our experience and then blame and abuse others for what they think with little or no reluctance at all.
That IT IS, is stable As IT IS, since what is not in question is certain, having no doubt. Pain monitors what is wrong - to misread its cues is to ask for and receive more troubling news. Functional literacy accurately reads our body language - assigning feelings to how and what we are thinking about what is happening - not who we are but what and how we utilize thought; as something we do. We cannot be what we do any more than we become a foot arm or leg by thinking about them.
We do not struggle with Life, Love, or Reality - we struggle with what we think about IT, and whether we like or dislike what we think.

To think things can’t or shouldn’t be happening is to think wrongly about all that is happening. Whether what is happening should be happening is irrelevant to the fact That it is always happening as it is happening Now Where We Are. Start here and the variables of what you’d like to have happen will be stabilized by the certainty of everything happening. Mistaking, misappropriating, and misusing thoughts lead to misguided actions - and the vain claim we "had nothing to do with it".

Word of mouth spreads the word;
Speak up, Speak out.
David Foster Wallace once said: "There is actually no such thing as atheism, the only choice we get is what to worship. In a society that chases money, power, fame, and beauty, there are worse gods than longevity."
Talk is cheap since there is a lot of it. Nutritious food for thought nourishes all life-form's capacity through mental health. We can stabilize our thoughts naturally or choose to destabilize them unnaturally. Nature is natural - no surprise. Greed, spite, envy, fear, and hatred are natural byproducts of obsessive thinking, which is not healthy or actual human nature but implied and supposed.
Our discussion is simple: Try, Rely, and Apply. There is no belief, faith, hope, or conclusion in consideration. Any difference between doubt and certainty or desperation and inspiration is determined by how well or poorly thoughts are aligned with all that exists and all that is happening, which includes all that we are doing - NOW.
Nowhere is NOW-HERE. There is no time like the present since there is no time to like or dislike Presently. Omniscience, Omnipotence, and Omnipresence cannot be dislodged, misplaced, or replaced by thoughts of time or space.
Here We Are: wholly, completely, and without exception or negotiation even while we can freely choose to think otherwise and thus feel unwise, and useless.
Intuition is knowledge beyond reason, which means Knowing is not thought-based. Intuition is Wisdom that Is All Knowing Ever Present Inspiration. Essence is essential and thus The Source of All That Are seamlessly melded with All That Is NOW.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts purely induced, “imagined reality”.
While the Absolute nature of Life is an unadulterated gift - we earn our human experience. Good or bad, like it or not, it is how and what we think of Life, Reality, and Truth that complicate all the consequential forms of conflicted dysfunctional incapacities incorrectly blamed on life and human nature. It is not Life that is impossible, hard, or a struggle but imagining that our thoughts about it are omnipotent and as a result unchangeable. This addictive mental trend has the world of things and people seem in chronic need of change while we choose to inflict others with our thoughts to pretend we are not capable of causing such conflicts. This induced form of insanity once seen clearly is laughable. The only thoughts induced insanity seemingly overlook are the mistaken beliefs of their perpetrator.
Acting like we’re in a coma to maintain unnatural conditions does not affect our essence but causes over-dramatic mental and inter-reactive consequences. We choose how and what we think - and this news is good or bad dependent on how accurately, or honestly, our choices are conceded.

The not wanting of any problem equals the amount we think of it as a problem. Things we think shouldn't be happening equals the lack of attention and interest we have and so pay dearly by avoiding what there is to learn. Asking for what we want and have - then beg for answers - admits the desire to avoid, distract, deny and react to the windfall of information inherent in what is actually happening including the trouble we asked for. Denial like any lie denies itself revealing the actual lack of any basis such thoughts have - in Reality. To think of such thoughts as reality is to begin the crusade of imagining there is no other reality. Feeling alone is not an accident - it is a co-incidence of thoughtlessness.
Nothing really is something or
Zero would not survive turning
Some things into no thing.
This applies to thoughts that matter.No thought and no body
Has control over us that
We don’t freely concedeTruth is still true even if no one believes it
A lie is still a lie even if everyone believes it
Buddha…..”the ‘lightness of being’ warned us that life allows us no revisions or second drafts, and this could be ‘unbearable’, but it could also be liberating.”
Milan KunderaThinking about thinking itself is thought centered - not our self. Thought centeredness generates more thinking not Reality as Truth. Think about IT.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts purely induced, “imagined reality”. When sleepwalking seems normal it is still an altered dysfunctional state of thinking’s use that causes our functional incapacity and consequential sense of worthlessness reflecting the devaluation of our culpability.
Think of the description of a (cancer) cell below as identical to the ego / false self that only appears or seems to exist in thought, stuck in a supposed cell of thought, thinking of itself; written by Dr. Zach Bush:
“A single cell forgets its voice and ceases to speak to its neighbors, loses its sense of belonging, and mistakes isolation for survival. Convinced it must act alone, it begins to hoard resources, reproducing without harmony, building a community of disconnection we call a tumor. Cancer, then, is not simply a disease—it is a story about miscommunication, about what happens when any living thing loses its place in the greater whole. Step back, and it’s hard not to see the same pattern unfolding around us. We are a species untethered. Cities rise while ecosystems crumble. Communities fracture.
We pour our time and attention into screens, constructing intricate digital lives while our real connections wither. Somewhere along the way, like that single cell, we’ve forgotten our voice in the chorus. But every breakdown carries within it the seeds of breakthrough. A cell losing its way reveals how essential communication and connection truly are. A human culture consumed by disconnection offers a chance to rediscover what we’ve left behind—not just repair, but evolution.
Cancer asks something of us that extends beyond the body. It’s a reminder to stop asking, “How do we fight this?” and start asking, “What is this teaching us?” Healing is not war. It’s collaboration. And every layer of life—biological, personal, planetary—thrives not in isolation but in relationships. So where do we begin? Not with grand gestures or perfect solutions, but by re-learning the language of life. The language of reciprocity. Of listening. Of asking, not what we can take, but what we can contribute. It begins with small acts: tending the soil beneath our feet, noticing the quiet patterns within us, and allowing space for connection to unfold—with ourselves, with one another, and with the world around us.
A cancer cell doesn’t know it’s disconnected. It just survives. But we are capable of something greater. We can notice. We can choose. We can change. This is not the story of a disease; it is the story of our moment in evolution. Cancer, then, is not simply a disease—it is a story about miscommunication, about what happens when any living thing loses its place in the greater whole. Step back, and it’s hard not to see the same pattern unfolding."

If the essence of existence exists then it is essential. To think we can be excluded from what is essential is to look at our world through the upside-down lens of misunderstanding mistakenly imagined to be reality and truth. Thoughts of this nature are as defensive as they are divisive as their rhetoric since acting at odds with reality causes conflicts with everything including thoughts themselves. Inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish are body language guiding awareness that something is wrong. Wrong thoughts are not a chronic problem until they are believed to be right. The essence of existence is as stable as it is simple since it does not change; It IS True as Reality is Real. Changing thoughts imagined to be real and true causes internal anxiety and fear and trying obsessively to exact revenge externally is as impossible as it is to turn imagination into reality. The odds of getting even are zero, as human history reflects, the storied fight for what is wrong as right, goes on. It is no wonder we keep searching for resolution while we ignore the nature of insanity as a wholly contrived possibility of induced insanity, not our nature or Reality.

Since we are free to choose how we think nobody else experiences the suffering or benefits greater than the thinker of them. Bodily functions cause body sensations. Cause and effect are co-incidental since effects immediately follow Feeling wrong mirrors wrong thoughts. Thoughts are something we have and repeating thoughts is not something we “have” to do. We have thoughts so can’t be thoughts so it is our choices that are wrong that we feel - not who we are that is wrong. To be wrong about this is to think we are stuck while we decide that wrong is right which causes such feelings. Clingy attachments to sticky thoughts are words frequently used historically to show how suffering in life can be achieved.
No words can account for what and how we hear them. All there is to Know is always Present now. There is our natural basis for informed, inspired decisions. Seeking elsewhere is to think All that is here is not here and so seeking has never been enough to fill this imagined gap between us and it. This is the root of mental addiction. This problem is not with Life or Reality but our choice to act on fantasy as reality. This is typical obsessive thinking that is so commonplace since the place we’re in now is the only place thoughts occur.
Induced insanity may appear normal while it is not. We may think we don't know, while we know, and perpetuate the mythology of the ages that there is nothing we can do but repeat the same ruinous ideas. Human nature is natural while induced insanity will never be no matter how commonly it occurs.
The freedom to think what we want comes with the freedom to not think in chronically dysfunctional manners, no matter what we think. To use Absolute Freedom to condemn our experience and the plight of our existence is to see how free we are to choose to go as wrong as we like.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts purely “imagined reality” so that sleepwalking seems normal while it is an altered dysfunctional state of thinking’s use that causes the consequential functional incapacity and sense of worthlessness reflecting the devaluation of our culpability.
Since we are free to choose how we think nobody else experiences the suffering or benefits greater than the thinker of them. Bodily functions cause body sensations. Cause and effect are co-incidental since effects immediately follow Feeling wrong mirrors wrong thoughts. Thoughts are something we have and do repeating thoughts is not something we “have” to do. We have thoughts so can’t be thoughts so it is our choices that are wrong that we feel - not who we are that is wrong. To be wrong about this is to think we are stuck while it is our decision that wrong is right that causes such feelings. Clingy attachments to sticky thoughts are words frequently used historically to show how suffering in life can be achieved.
No words can account for what and how we hear them. All there is to Know is always Present now. There is our natural basis for informed, inspired decisions. Seeking elsewhere is to think All that is here is not here and so seeking has never been enough to fill this imagined gap between us and it. This is the root of mental addiction. This problem is not with Life or Reality but our choice to act on fantasy as reality. This is typical obsessive thinking that is so commonplace since the place we’re in now is the only place thoughts occur.
Induced insanity may appear normal while it is not. We may think we don't know, while we know, and perpetuate the mythology of the ages that there is nothing we can do but repeat the same ruinous ideas. Human nature is natural while induced insanity will never be no matter how commonly it occurs.
The freedom to think what we want comes with the freedom to not think in chronically dysfunctional manners, no matter what we think. To use Absolute Freedom to condemn our experience and the plight of our existence is to see how free we are to choose to go as wrong as we like.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts that are purely “imagined reality” so that sleepwalking seems normal while it is an altered dysfunctional state of human functional capacity. Absolute States reveal the objective nature of words encompassing the entire breadth of our human experience. Still does not change and like the Present Still remains.
Functional literacy is determined by how well we read our body language. Human functional capacity is fulfilled by how well we respond to this internal guidance system. Trying to feel better about what is wrong is a choice to pretend this language is foreign so we can’t, won’t and don’t understand it. The attempt to reverse nature’s order creates systemic disorders and collectively creates social disorder. Lies have no basis in reality and so have no effective purpose or applicable use beyond the opportunity misery and frustration offer to concede Life’s Terms, the Nature of our seemingly limited expanding relative universe and actual Reality.
Shadows of doubt reveal how we can imagine our thinking is so great that what matters can obstruct the nature’s shadowless Light. Our choices have no impact on Reality, Truth or Life while they dramatically effect the experience of our mentality and the outward dysfunctional and conflicted actions we choose to take.
Feeling better is getting better at feeling our feelings. To think fire won’t burn had no effect on fire while it subjects the wrong thinker about it to how it operates. Life is no different since Life is the basis for any and all forms of existence. Feeling wrong is indicates something is wrong and since all voluntary actions that manifest our circumstance and experience start with a thought it is how we think that we feel, primarily. To think wrong is to feel wrong and aligning these is right. Imagining the illusion of thought as reality is delusional and induced insanity.
Emotional sobriety is sane living - trying to manage induced insanity is to further induce insanity.
Addiction is a lie and all forms of fractured states of devolved, depraved, perversions of thought naturally follow this unnatural path. Lies last only as long as their teller insists on maintaining them. They have no other source than the freedom we each have to think what and how we want. Turning this absolute freedom into contempt is a clear conflict that comes with a clear sense of feeling condemned, alone and disconnected.

Thoughts are products of Reality,
Thoughts process reality,
Thoughts do not create reality,
Nor can they be who, how, or what we Are.
Thinking is something we have and do, how and what we think is a choice.
If Life Is or has a primary Source it may well be worth mentioning that it would not be optional or negotiable since Absolute Essence would be essential.
We cannot Be or become something we do or have even when we think we have to do that thing.
Imagining wrong as right is a right that our shared freedom to think what and how we want offers. This right does not make our thoughts right or our decision to defend thoughts that are wrong, right. To entertain delusional ideas does not affect Absolute Reality while it dramatically affects our mentality, behavior, and functional capacity.

Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts that are purely “imagined reality” so that sleepwalking may seem normal.
To think that feeling better about what is wrong gets us over what is wrong is how obsessive thoughts are manifest. The attempt to cover this darkness, like any seeming secret, triggers the defensive posture of denial, defiance, and delusion since it is a lie.
Seeing and hearing things only as imagined is imagining reality is only as we think it to be. This “self-centered” Illusion is induced insanity. Inner conflict pronounces any misuse of thought. Wisely paying attention sees the disturbing effects as reflections of what we cause rather than the problem to chronically try to feel better about. Trying to feel better about what is worse is the monkey on the back and the dragon chased by compulsive behaviors.
Treating effects denies the cause. This symptomatic approach indicates that addiction occurs well beyond the presumed bounds of those openly suffering from compulsive behaviors suggesting that what may appear normal is not.

Sleepwalking pays little if any attention to what is actually happening. What could go wrong? Check your experience for clues. Feeling better is getting better at feeling what is actually happening and what is felt is the result of how and what we think. To think that feeling better about what is wrong gets us over what is wrong is a compulsion, like any addiction, used as a distraction to consume our attention. This cover of darkness, like any seeming secret, is the defensive posture of denial, defiance, and delusion since it is a lie.
“Fixing” induced insanity by thinking about “it” obsessively only produces more unstable mentality followed by outward corrupt toxic life threatening actions.
Scarcity ( scare - city; “self-centered” fear ) is an induced environ-mental, dysfunctional condition. It is a choice dependent solely on the thinker coming to believe there is no other actual Reality. Seeing and hearing things as we imagine they are is not seeing and hearing things as they are. Illusion thought to be Reality is induced insanity - directed by the thinker experiencing the manifest anguish. Inner conflict pronounces that this is how we are thinking. Noticing pays attention and it is a wise investment.

Brains judge naturally. Judging is not wrong unless incorrect. For as long as we think that thoughts are Reality the nature of judgment is turned into spiteful contempt, not only for what we are thinking of within our experience - but for Reality and Truth.
Feeling condemned is the natural effect of maintaining contempt-full thoughts. It is the condemned nature of the thought that is felt, not Reality. To be wrong about how and what we think about Reality and Truth is to destabilize subsequent thinking and turn our great potential into dysfunctional behaviors that lack any benefit greater than an opportunity to learn - if we read the signs.
Reality is not a trick, magical, wishful, or a miracle. Wishful thinking becomes vain hope once we think thoughts are reality and we then magically become only what we think, which is fantasy imagined to be our reality.

Accurately noticing wrongs dissolves them rather than subject the subjective thinker to make things worse by making up new ways to maintain them by trying to feel better about them or trying to get over them. Feeling wrong does not make us wrong but indicates our thinking is wrong. This does not confirm that what and how we think is real, or right, only that our imaginative capacity can manifest daydreams that can feel like nightmares even while thinking we’re awake. Daydreams are seldom observed since when we think and thus feel like we're in them. Thinking how we think is all we are and thus reality causes the same effect of feeling like we’re in thoughts. Some evidence of this is saying we’re stuck in thought, stuck in our head, and begin to imagine thoughts have a life of their own so they can be, or are, intrusive and attacking us - as though we've imbued them with a life of their own. Awakening from any nightmare offers relief once it is realized that it was only a dream. Choosing to imagine how we think is Reality comes with all the same consuming effects of dreams since obsessive thoughts are imagined to be true. If those effects had any actual basis they would not vanish so quickly once we awaken. Thoughts are imagined and cause effects. Our brain thinks, feels, and generates words and other voluntary actions. We choose how to use our thinking process. We do not create reality we are designed to transform existing reality. Thinking about thinking incorrectly and imagining it to be right is a seed that will corrupt all subsequent thoughts and our experience.

Emotional sobriety is the daily reprieve from induced insanity. The possibility to think wrong thoughts are right is constant - since we are free to choose what and how we think. Addiction’s promise suggests that the problem will one day be the absolute solution. This absolution never comes, since it is a lie; it is impossible.
If all things possible are possible then thinking we shouldn’t be doing what we're doing, while doing what we’re doing, leads to more complications and confusion. Having things as they are is to have something that can be let go of. When it comes to imagining wrong thoughts will one day be right the smashing blow is facing delusion as nothing more than what and how we think of it, now. We know what is right which is a guidance system to know what is wrong. If we didn’t know better we wouldn’t suffer from thinking we don’t.
All that happens, happens in the present. Now is where problems are manifest, effects are felt, and honest awareness dissolves delusion.
The unholy trinity:
Obsessive thinking is a lie that we imagine:
- We have nothing to do with it, thus:
- There is nothing we can do about it, and so:
- We can do no more than excuse the same sorry, sick thoughts and subsequent misbehaviors.
This model for mental addiction supposedly resurrects an idea otherwise dead that thoughts have a life of their own that can operate against us, intrude on us and can hold us hostage whenever we feel stuck in them. No so - think again.
Lies only seem to exist in brains - specifically the brain of the thinker promoting and protecting any illusion(s) as reality by refining a story used as an excuse to defend against the impossibility of achieving the fairy tale whatsoever. We can think we oppose Truth while Truth is the provider of though not a product of thought. While we are certainly free to think we can deny Truth and Reality our attempted opposition has no impact whatsoever on either - especially since they are the same - while our fractured mentality is impacted and broken down dramatically, further fracturing into smaller and smaller fractional states that are impossible to eliminate as long as we subdivide our thoughts hoping to escape.

Obsessive thoughts try to perfect the self we think we are. Since this "self" is born of thought it is a thought thinking of it-self - not our Self. Like Narcissus falling in love with his image this seeming self-centeredness is actually thought centered narrowly focused obsessively on reflections of more and more thought. Narcissus was thus kept from loving those who loved him by his chronic fascination with his image. Imagining that imagination creates reality rather than noticing that existence in all its forms is a product of reality, not its creator. The idea that thoughts create reality is a lie leading to the sensation that our life depends on obsessively maintaining this idea rather than noticing the conflicted effects indicate otherwise - and undermine our physical ability to function, survive, and thrive. Imagine that. Our contemplative advantage is turned into an intolerable sleepwalking daydream turned into a nightmare that only seems hard to imagine we could possibly have anything to do with.

Thinking that thought will get us there is to think we are not here. If we are here there is no then or there to get nor is there any more or less of this, or that, to have. To not have what we have is to think we have to have something else, somewhere else in an amount that can never be achieved. To maintain this thought is the source of addiction since more or less will never be enough and when enough is never enough there is no hope. Hopelessness in this case is an accurate assessment of an impossible condition. The condition is not the problem. It is our choice to maintain the claim it is all we can do so we blame “it” for being the problem while our insistence to maintain such thoughts equals the persistent experience. As long as we act as though we have nothing to do with the idea automatically thinking there is nothing we can do about it is used to justify continuing to do what seems to be the only thing possible. This deception underlies all compulsive behaviors and leads to suicide in obvious or less dramatic compulsive ways. Induced insanity manifests anxiety, pressure, and stress that undermines all of our bodily ability to maintain stability. When insane thoughts attempt to have rational ideas maintain balance it is just another irrational perpetuation of the same induced insanity. Our body knows there is an emergency and the effect is never resolved by pouring more fuel on the fire.

Feeling wrong does not make us wrong but indicates our thinking is wrong. This does not confirm that what and how we think is real, only that thinking can cause effects.

The brain thinks, feels, and generates words and other voluntary actions. We do not create reality we transform existing reality.
If essence exists it is essential. To think we can be excluded from what is essential is to look at our world through the upside-down, backward lens of misunderstanding mistakenly imagined to be reality and truth. Thoughts of this nature are defensive and divisive since they are reactive. Thinking at odds with reality causes chain reactions of mental conflicts, not conflicts with Reality. Inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish are body language guiding our awareness of what is wrong. Wrong thoughts are not a chronic problem until they are believed right. The essence of existence is as stable as it is simple since it does not change; True IS True as Reality is Real. Changing thoughts imagined to be real and true causes anxiety and fear and obsessively tries to exact revenge internally and thus externally. The odds of feeling conflicted while acting on such thoughts are 100% while the odds of ever getting even - are zero.
We can shrink or grow. Growth diminishes the scale problems while shrinking magnifies them. Considering the Absolute nature as our nature dissolves problems no matter the matter of size and weight we think “they” have since it is only a thought imagining such things.

Feeling wrong does not make us wrong but indicates we are thinking wrong. This does not confirm that our thoughts are real, only that thinking causes, or manifests, effects. Since unawareness is a sleeping state these effects are no different than a dream that feels real "while we're in it, thinking it is real” - until all those effects dissipate once we wake up and notice it was only a dream.
If the essence of existence exists then it is essential. To think we can be excluded from what is essential is to look at our world through the upside-down lens of misunderstanding mistakenly imagined to be reality and truth. Thoughts of this nature are as defensive as they are divisive as they're reactive since acting at odds with reality is defensive and causes conflicts with all things including thoughts themselves. Inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish are body language guiding awareness that something is wrong. Wrong thoughts are not a chronic problem until they are believed to be right. The essence of existence is as stable as it is simple since it does not change; It IS True as Reality is Real. Changing thoughts imagined to be real and true causes anxiety and fear internally and trying obsessively to exact revenge externally is as impossible as it is to turn imagination into reality. The odds of getting even are zero.

Reality is unlimited. Nothing can be added or subtracted to or from It. The idea we create it suggests otherwise. Acting on such thoughts is behaving out of order. Anxious and systemic disorders reflect this attempt to reverse the natural order. Disease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such activities.

Trying to feel better or get over what is wrong tries to ignore the wrong and so reinforces the wrong and no amount of effort can achieve this. This form of management is hopeless since it maintains the problem. To say we want to correct it by Ignoring it is a lie since there is actually nothing to ignore. To insist on resisting is to make the problem seem real by feeling the persistent disturbing effect we manifest and maintaining.
Our brains are designed to process reality and nervously break down when we insist they process insanity. If we did not know better we would not know something is wrong. For as long and hard as we make-believe we can create reality will we turn our back on facing the internal messes we make that turn into the circumstances that seem as unjust as they seem to be happening to us. Make-believe is fantasy - Reality is Reality.
Our discussion is not based on new forms of impossibility but the concession that nature in all substantive forms is essential to our nature as sourced in the presence of all possibility now. Right here, Right now is where virtue, morality, functional capacity, and sane mentality operate, freely.

**Thinking it takes time to come to terms with reality is to witness our willingness to think denial can or will create reality. Wasting time is how sick thoughts imagine they create time and reality. The problem is that time, like all concepts, is limited - while Reality is not limited it cannot come or go. There is no time like the present since there is no time in the present since the speed of absolute light is the basis of reality. Today it is understood that at the speed of light - there is no time - referencing the fact that the essence of Reality does not change. Life, Light, and Love are all Absolute states of present nature and so cannot be lost or found. Grace is nature’s effect since Love is its nature - and that basis of nature is our nature.
Mentally obsessive thinking is induced insanity - induced by the thinker witnessing the demoralizing and depressing effects of wrong thoughts imagined to be right. Guilt and shame are not accidental but accurate assessments that we know better or would not feel either.**

Stop, look, and listen is kindergarten speak for pedestrian safety at any crossing. This applies to the positions we take as the experience we make intersects with all that is happening, now.
Human nature is not corrupt if our essence is absolute. If nature is natural then it is our nature. To corrupt our thoughts by imagining lies can be true shows how eager and willing we choose to prove how and what we think about becomes reality. This impossibility does not make life impossible, while our mentality suffers.
No body and no thing can interfere with our choices. Since we are free to think what we want it is what we think that primarily affects our experience. If nature is natural it is worth noticing that it is also our nature
The Present is where all that happens, happens. It is where we think. Since the problem is only what we think wrongly to be right, the solution is here now too. It is not stopping this that helps since that is the vain attempt to treat the effect, not the cause. Sincerely, genuinely, and honestly noticing we are the ones starting it not only can but will dissipate the lack of sense we've insisted on using to continue.
Honestly assessing our experience is learning from the bountiful awareness of our senses. Acting as though we have nothing to do with ANYTHING suggests we must not exist. This may seem extreme yet if you witness any depraved experience you are witnessing the lengths make-believe can go to imagine that if this is accurate in any way it must be true in all ways. with all things. This is a death wish and the anxiety and fear we feel thinking these things is an accurate assessment of the health risk we are manifesting. Lies never correct themselves as long as they are maintained by the thinker who initiated them.

If the essence of existence exists then it is essential. To think it possible that we can be excluded from what is essential is to see through a misshapen backward lens of mistaken thought, misperception, and misunderstanding. Thoughts of this nature are conflicted. Inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish are natural consequences indicating something is wrong - not with thinking but how we’re thinking about what is being thought. Changing thoughts can complicate things while the essence of existence is as stable as it is simple since it does not change; It IS True as Reality is Real.
Thoughts are primary actions leading to all voluntary outward behaviors and interactions. Mental alignment with life’s terms is the fulfillment and productivity of constructive transformation. Learning to learn is life’s curriculum. The productivity of right is its functional utility so applying it is all we need to confirm it is correct. This is choosing inspiration rather than desperation. Wrong’s stormy alarm announces deviation from nature’s calm state. Responsibility is the ability to respond flexibly and adjust to correct accordingly. Reactivity is a defense primal to any wrong thought of as right. Wrong is not the problem. Thinking wrong is right sets off the internal fight and impulsive urges to escape into compulsive behaviors. Since a lie is a backward attempt to claim false is true all of our impulsive urges compel actions that threaten extinction. These are not natural instincts since truth is not false. These are sick hyper-reactive ideas masquerading as all we can do so we can claim them as our reality and the only things we can do.

Conversions are ( a turning around ) contrary versions and the basis of conversations. To think of the opposite of reality as being any more or less than reality is to think of the absolute as limited to relative, physical formations. The opposite of any absolute essence is the same since it does not change. To change it into what always changes is to think our changing thoughts are the creators of reality and thus egoistic god-like qualities are born, within the fairy tale of self-will and determinism. We have the right to think freely. This does not make what we think right.

The eye of any beholder creates a version of reality. It is not these versions of reality that we struggle with until the beholder sticks obsessively to the story that it is their reality that the in-toxic-ation of feeling stuck in a head with thoughts out-of-control seems to become reality. This unbecoming experience of fantasy posing as reality defines mentality inducing a state of insanity - not reality.

Human mentality does not determine Reality so to think it does is how insanity is induced and introduced to our mentality.
Obsessive thought imagines that one day - that never comes - more thinking about what we think about will finally turn thought into reality. If reality was limited this might be possible or true.

What is not real does not exist. For as long as we insist on thinking how and what we think is real and true will we resist imagining reality as anything other than obsessively conflicted thinking. The depressing byproducts of this form of thinking are natural cries for help as witnesses that there is something wrong - in our thinking process.
If we can make up thoughts we can make them worse. Trying to get over and feel better about mental conflicts we create are management styles that obsessively maintain them. For as long as we think we are irresponsible for them will we imagine they have a life of their own that can attack us or be intrusive and impossible to face. Horror films are no different than daydreams imagining things horribly. Waking from a nightmare provides relief since it is obvious it was only a dream.

Absolute Reality, Truth, or Life - do not change even while thinking dramatically affects how Life is experienced and as a result how we dysfunctionally choose to think and thus behave.
Our instinct to survive naturally has us adjust flexibly to adapt to conditions as they occur. Interesting that we would do what instinct and nature prescribe for survival while chronically maintaining a premise so shaky as to have no basis in reality - and so undermine our bodily capacity to maintain health. Addiction tries to reverse the natural order of nature.
Getting better at maintaining what is wrong as right does not affirm Life or anything other than a possible fight for the impossibility of a lie becoming true. The sick and sad irony is that a lie is only a lie as long as it is presumed to be true: meaning there would be no fight necessary if it were. And secondly, the fight for a lie vanishes once any lie is seen as a lie.
We are free to think what we want so when what we want is a sense of condemnation it is the reactive desire of sick thought we have chosen to act on.

Absolute Reality, Truth, or Life - do not change even while thinking dramatically affects how Life is experienced and as a result how we dysfunctionally choose to behave.
We are free to misuse thought even while hoping more prayer and faith will disabuse us of any abusive effects. To cause a problem is to be witness to the effect we cause. To think we should or can be relieved of the effect is evidence we claim to have nothing to do with the cause. Cause and effect, like two sides of the same coin, are intimately connected. We are perfectly free to think and so we are perfectly free to suffer the effects of the contempt we have for actual reality. To think we create reality is to think all things should obey the rules of our thinking. Any experience witnessed honestly is enough to tell us that things and people do what they do and seldom if ever only do what is thought to be all they should do.
When things don’t count they don’t add up and any imbalance is indicated is a lack of accountability. Accountability accounts for the problem not by making an equal and opposite mistake to balance the problem. Accountability accounts honestly for any successive thought's failure. To see this is to accurately concede that more is never enough since more nonsense ever makes more sense. Our senses navigate on behalf of our human experience not only to help us survive but thrive by expressing our abundant nature. Thinking baseless thoughts are reality turns thinking into a lie fighting to be true.
The greatest substance abuse is imagining lies have substance. To think this is to think lies have power. We can think they do but if there is any Powerful, Absolute State of Being Knowing Awareness this seeming power is only imagined power. Thinking such things is possible just as inducing day-dream-like hallucinations is possible. This form of thinking is as inane as it is insane and we know it by the discomfort we naturally feel while perpetuating it. We can always think again. And we always Know what we Know in the Infinite sense regardless of what we think we know. Mental blocks, block useful mentality not reality. These thoughts do not disrupt our actual nature but they certainly wreak havoc in our sick inter-reactions to the natural law and order of nature.
Life’s terms are our nature and the terms of our life forms' ability to respond and function at full capacity. To think in honest terms restores mental order since the natural order is always in perfect order. As these terms are thought of accurately anxious disorders and the resulting societal disorder will dissipate by turning desperate reactions into inspired actions that will naturally and abundantly benefit all that are and all that is.
If you’ve ever wanted to change the world - you have been changing it all along. Not liking the change does not reduce, limit, or change our responsibility. Consider this by wandering in wonder to see if the world we’ve changed is the most useful world for all that are and all that is.
Like it or not we each play a part and the part we play starts now with each thought we freely choose.
Thanks for your interest, participation, and all that you Are.

If the essence of existence exists then it is essential. To think we can be excluded from it is to think the process of thought that always changes is more powerful than that which is indivisible, indiscriminate and does not change. Thoughts of this nature conflict with nature and undermine our human experience and functional capacity - while they do not affect Absolute Reality, Truth, or Life - even while they have dramatically traumatic effects on how Life is experienced and as a result how we dysfunctionally choose to behave.Choices last only as long as they are chosen. Reality need not be chosen to be real. Introducing thinking to what we have aligns it with reality and so allows us to realize and fully utilize our human functional capacity. Choosing to imagine that thinking about thinking itself becomes reality and thus our self corrupts the primary nature of thinking. This "self-serving nature has the basis of reality only what we think. This is not reality but insanity. This breach fractures and corrupts all subsequent thoughts causing enormous instability and conflict that affects us all. Written human history speaks to the violent** effects this "self" indignation produces.
Mental addiction at its root is induced insanity - meaning it is a choice. It seems crazy to freely choose this condition but lies acting as truth have sick thoughts appear as all we can have and thus all we can act on. The undo this is limited to the doer of this. If this undoing was not an option then there would be no other choice and we would not suffer inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish, since it would be all that is possible, and the only thing we can do - and thinking about it at all, like any instinctive behavior, would not occur at all.
Obsessive thinking is an option. We are aware we are aware and to understand this is to reaffirm our greater knowing awareness and thoughts naturally act on inspiration rather than fight for desperation. We know better or would not feel worse when we are choosing the worst option. Trying chronically to feel better, overcome, or get through this disturbance is an admission of, and an attempt to manage, the imposition of this condition.
To instigate opinions that refute reality is one way of experiencing life. Sick choices are choices freely made hoping sickness will cure what it creates. Addiction is based on a lie and so appears to twist fate and all other right into wrong. There is never any requirement to impulsively choose and set the chain reaction of obsessive thinking in motion - no matter what we think.
Obsessive thinking becomes obvious when contemplating any Absolute concept; Life, Reality, Truth, Love….all sorts of ideas will re-act up to fight for other ideas that have no basis other than to be thought of as true. Peace as our nature makes any disturbance obvious. Seeing thought-centered thoughts accurately allows them to be processed correctly. Not choosing them becomes as easy as the option to choose them. Sanity is simple so easy to restore - even while nothing is easier to complicate than simplicity.
Right is right because it works every time. Wrong never works no matter how long we rely on it and the stress created trying to prove it may or can work. Might, like may, maybe, or possibly are mighty words. Considering what is happening is considerate. There is no fight in our naturally awakened state of contemplative meditation.

Thoughts of this nature undermine our human experience and functional capacity - they do not have any effect on Reality, Truth, or Life - while they can and do have dramatically traumatic effects on how we think of Life and as a result how we dysfunctionally choose to act outwardly.** If we strive to act principled it is because we are aware of unprincipled thoughts. Relying on unprincipled thoughts and think we become the image they reflect is like imagining we are only the image we see in a mirror. Thoughts are imagined. So-called self-centered thinking is thinking-centered thinking. What is centered in thinking about thinking is more thinking about itself - not ourselves.
We are free to think what we want and are just as free to feel the effects of contempt, internal conflict, and fear we create. Ignoring the effects does not diminish their impact. It is naturally difficult to live with any resistance to what is happening. This form of alleged reality as sanity is induced insanity.
The greatest form of substance abuse, that is to think that invisibility means substance must not exist - and so the lack of substance is all that exists. Lies have no basis in reality and only seem to in misunderstood reality. The "under" part of understanding offers the vision to see what cannot be seen visibly. This is the same with the "sub" part of substance. Our standing and stances are positions we choose. Vision is based on understanding accurately aligned with Knowing. What starts with each of our acquiescence to submit to ideas that are not true as truth leads to social ills. We are culpable for propping up this broader mistaken behavior by thinking we have nothing to do with it and thus stand by quietly - while others scream - thinking there is nothing we can do or that can be done. To think that nothing is the best we can do is a death wish for non-existence, a suicidal thought or tendency accurately reflecting the addictive nature of obsessive thinking. .
If nature is natural it is our nature. If essence is essential then it is our essence. Reality and stability do not come or go with the rising and falling mood swings of trending thoughts. Realizing our human functional capacity is dependent on sanity to express our principled nature, naturally.
Thinking about thinking as our source requires we fix every unstable thought to be whole. Thinking about Knowing as our Absolute Source stabilizes all thoughts simultaneously. The natural order has never been out of order even when induced insanity imagine it so.
We can’t do enough to stop what we insist on maintaining. It is easy to stop anything once responsibility for starting it is assumed. What can seem impossible becomes simple and easy once our basic thought about reality is sane - the undoing of the redoing naturally dissolves.
This simple shift stabilizes thinking since it was persistent denial that set distressed mental conflicts and emotion in motion as the insanity of obsessive thinking seemed to destabilized our thinking so traumatically and dramatically as to appear as reality. Only within the confines of insanity can this seem our only possibility.
All that is possible is possible, now always.

Daniel is my brother in law, he has been a singer, songwriter for at least the twenty five+ years we've known each other - and is very adept at digesting and considering ideas as presented. We will be back and give him the chance to talk about his experience as a result of our discussion - and how his application of the varioius ideas effects his experience.
Consider what you hear by living with it like trying on a new pair of shoes. How these ideas fit will be clear quickly or become clearer gradually after wearing them a while. To have a sense that something is right even while not understanding it completely is the reverse of clearly knowing something is wrong but not knowing what or why. This form of knowing indicates we know more than we think. Often, what will also become clear, is the flurry of desperate thoughts trying to hide in the dark - once the light is turned on. Seeing wrong clearly is feeling wrong accurately. Feeling right is wrong or wrong is right is a choice to feel condemned by what we freely choose to think. Proof of our freedom to think as we choose is inherent in the right to think up irrational ideas and then think they are happening to us rather than being caused by us.
Words like brilliance, radiance and enlightenment are indications we are aware of the Infinite Light of Knowing Awareness - as the present nature of our awareness.
We can get better by talking about what is actually happening rather than harbor ideas that support the misguided, mistaken and maligned thinking that all that is happening is what we think is happening.
Thinking occurs in brains. Knowing is not based in time or space, so it is always wherever we are - in total - as it is the essence of all that is and all that are no matter what we think.

Absolute is defined as: pure, free from restriction or limitation, incomparable (nothing to compare, no parts), not relative, or divisible; indivisible. If an Infinite Source exists then it is not a choice, optional or negotiable.
Freedom is the right to choose what we think. That does not mean our conclusions are right. This Freedom allows we can choose to feel condemned by what we think. Condemned thoughts are maligned thoughts only imagined real yet having no applicable purpose, place or use in reality - they are only thought “to be”. We feel the condemned nature of these thoughts. This does not condemn us since our existence is based in reality not what and how we think about reality. It is the choice to imagine these thoughts are true that causes depressing impressions. Obsessive thoughts vainly attempt to negate reality and truth. This is impossible. Trying to fix what doesn’t exist is one more way of thinking of fantasy as reality.
Evidence of mental addiction, which is induced insanity, is thinking there is no other choice but to chronically redo the same thought. Since we are free to think obsessively it can only be undone by the thinker doing it - nobody else.
Choice, as a principle, always allows all possible choices, including all impossible choices. Ultimately freedom is not only found in the breadth of all options but the lack of any requirement to choose any of them. Defending wrong ideas as right is the only seeming option obsessive thoughts have since this form of thinking is unprincipled. Reactive, impulsive and compulsive behaviors reflect this by trying to escape what must, again, be imagined to actually exist to escape from. The maintenance of lies rely on chronic attention. In induced insanity not choosing is out of the question - and so sanity is always in question. Lies do not exist without a thinker imagining what is false is true, or truth is false.
Reality is not at risk so needs no defense.
An Absolute state of Being does not change so it is not a choice. Essence is essential, not negotiable - there is absolutely we can do to change this. Rising or falling faith, belief or hope in God, Reality or Truth cannot and does not create more or less of an Infinite unchanging essence. The seeming stickiness of this point is the fight for the right to choose what cannot be chosen, lost or found. To think we need faith, belief and hope is the choice to act as though reality depends on us rather than noting we are wholly dependent byproducts of IT. Fighting for shifting thoughts we think can produce or block what is Absolute - has the pitch of our rising and falling thoughts mirrored by up and down feelings: mood swings. The essence of Reality, Truth, LIfe and Love do not change as they are as Essential as Ever-Present.
It is not an accident that induced insanity defined as addiction argues against choice then chooses to fight against the idea of an Absolute Source that is not a choice and cannot be lost so is impossible to find - no matter how long our journey.
Thinking fluctuates, not reality.

Obsessive thinking is not something we should not be doing. To think we should not be doing what we’re doing is to think that which is happening is not happening. Even illusions thought of as real cause haunting effects. To ask thinking to imagine it should not or isn’t doing what it is doing naturally manifests an experience of inner conflict, emotional turmoil and mental anguish. This induced form of insanity only persists as long as it is thought of as real then will it be thought of as “our” truth, reality and sanity. To think we should not be doing what we’re doing is to turn what we are free to do into what appears to be something we think we can’t do and thus imagine it is something we can do nothing about and so chronically repeat the thought to prove the point. In fact the point we prove is that the thinkinis wrong, yet since addiction is the attempt to turn what is false into truth by reversing the natural order of nature - what is wrong magincally appears to become right. To get this point is to pop the bubble of thought that can seem as though we are stuck inside.
Only the present thought thinking we should not be doing what we are perfectly free to do sets this cycle in motion where it is maintained as long as it is thought of as reality. Living with a sense that sometihng is wrong is noticing something wrong. When the basis of our reality imagines it is somethiing we can control with thoughts is to have thoughts become what seems like our only reality. There are few if any things more disruptive to our psyche than to make believe that realtiy is an optional potential of thought.
Our discussion is not an attempt to suggest we not think obsessively. Our discussion is public to help embrace what we are doing - by hearing others are also doing what we can think is only happening to us, alone, separate from the rest. What is not true that is thought to be true feels alone since feelings reflect how we are thinking. We are not lonely when we feel alone - it is the thoughts we are having with no basis that we feel are so alone as to have no place in reality - only thought centered reality as our "only" reality. We need not be driven crazy to be thinking crazy right where we are now.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thinking.We are all free to think what we want and so want what we think. This does not change as the Freedom to do so, like any principle, is not optional or negotiable. Feeling condemned feels at least one thought condemned to having no basis and no applicable use - while thought of as reality. To imagine thoughts create reality has no effect on Reality. Yet to think what is wrong is right is to blame reality while it is our thoughts that are opposed. Conflicted ideas seem to have a life of their own while we think it is life that is impossible. Feelings condemned and in contempt will remain as long as false belief is maintained to be true, it can and most often will be thought of as our reality while it is only a thought.
Our discussion’s aim is not to stop this irrational trend but to embrace the doing of it so to allow it be seen as a choice so undoing it by not redoing it is also freely seen as a possible choice.
The Knowing Nature of Nature is Perfect Peace since IT does not change. Nothing can be simpler. We Know Peace since essence is essential. To feel disturbed, discomforted, disconnected and alone is how body language speaks of the nature of our thinking. Thinking creates feelings as effects offering depth to mental perspective. To think things are separate is to induce division within our greater capacity to utilize the natural vision of understanding that can see substance as the basis of Reality. Mental vision relies on understanding to clearly see what can otherwise be thought of as invisible and this wrongly presumed unknowable.
Misunderstanding is at the root of addiction, where lies, ego as thought appear become our self while it is only thought centered in thought creating the depressing impression. Lies rely on the idea they are the only thing they cannot be: true. This sense of division opposes vision having the keeper of the lie act like they are blind to the effects suffered. This is not self serving but thought serving thought trying to turn inanity into sanity. Sages, gurus and prophets have long mentioned that we are not our thoughts - and in modern terms this means egoistic ideas of our self have no basis other than what delusional imagined about them.
The ever-present essence of nature is essential and so thought cannot think itself in or out of its nature. We are free to try yet to use absolute freedom to create any sense of condemnation as conceived reality reveals how thinking opposing reality missed the loving and generous Nature of Nature freely allowing us to think and thus do as we please.
The inanity of induced insanity seems to exist and persist only as long as we insist on resisting how we are thinking - Now.

We are free to think what we want but that right does not mean what we think is right. Feeling condemned, conflicted, and lonely is our greater awareness revealing we are imagining wrong can be, or is, right. The fight that ensues is not only an addiction to thinking that a lie has power but that obsessive thoughts are or can be real and thus thinking becomes the creator of reality, the ruler of the universe, and all we are or can ever become. The insanity of this line of irrational reasoning can have life feel incomplete, difficult, and impossible while it is the reflection of our thinking that has us feel that way.
Consider Infinite Possibilities and your thinking will see chronic limited thoughts more clearly as your imagination begins to see things actually happening rather than see reality only as it is imagined.

We have thoughts. Thoughts don’t have us. Since we are not thoughts their effects are manifest like any dream. On awakening happy or frightening effects disappear.
Reality as pure consciousness is not a product of imagination. Imagined reality is not something to let go of - but to be seen clearly as imagined - nothing more than a thought. Once fantasy is not seen as reality there is nothing to mistakenly think of as serious or personal so getting the light-hearted joke becomes funny. Thinking that delusion can be held onto also disappears.
An Infinite Source asks nothing since It Is All That Is IT gives everything. To think IT withholds from us It's natural abundance is to witness how quickly wrong thinking thought to be right flips the narrative. The thought that what is Infinite could be lacking is the doubtful awareness of a thought lacking substance - thought of as reality.
Reality is our nature - not a place to go or a thing to get more or less of. To search and seek is the claim something is lost. To search for what cannot be lost is to endlessly search for what cannot be found. Reality does not change when thinking about it changes. Humans obsessively think about the "mysteries" in the universe while the actual mystery is why we continue and not notice the problem .
We need not think we are lying to be subject to the wary effects of lying. Neither do we need to think of all that is happening for it all to be happening, now.
Thinking does not conclude reality. Thinking seems conclusive only to limited thoughts. Reality is real regardless of how or what we think. Seen clearly this is freedom, seen unclearly it is seen as the reverse; a threat to our thinking so a sense of condemnation naturally follows. We are not condemned, since we are not how or what we think even when the thinking we choose is condemned to failure.
If we didn't know better, if we didn't have a greater knowing awareness than our thoughts, we would not clearly and correctly feel so wrong. Trying to feel better about what is wrong is addictive behavior, since it is an addiction to the thought that it is all we can do that sets reactive, impulse be and compulsive behaviors in motion.
Thoughts are actions and their content is chosen. Voluntary behaviors begin with the directed action of a thought. Cause precedes effects just as thoughts generate feelings, words, belief, faith and hope. Belief in faithless things is a thoughtless effort.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts.Concerning induced mental problems there is no greater impact on our experience than choices. To think how we think of things is all that is happening is to think all that is happening is only what we think. Producing internal conflict between what is presumed to be happening and that which is actually happening is a byproduct. To think it is anyone or anything else causing our problem is to act as though there is nothing we can do about the problem. Evidence of this is continuing to act blindly to what we are chronically re-choosing, restarting, and redoing.. To try to feel better about this is to get better at avoiding the cause while acting oblivious to things getting worse. This is the addictive cycle that uses denial, defiance, and delusion as its chronic reactive defense. No matter how loud or long the defense delusion will never be real. To induce the state of belief that it can or will is the inanity of induced insanity.
Reality has no defense or fight since it is not insecure, uncertain, doubtful, or unstable. The Absolute does not change and what does not change cannot be at risk of changing. What does not change could not be simpler.
Addiction to thought is not wrong thoughts but duly due to thinking they are right. The many branches of this twisted thinking are all fractured states of imagining that thinking creates reality rather than manifests or causes effects that we feel.
Causing inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish are all indications that something is wrong. Even within induced insanity, we have an active bodily guidance system that accurately provides information indicating that we know more than we think. To think of this awareness as something to get over is how our body language appears backward, like a page of text in a mirror, and so is read backward so the sick, addictive infectious strain on our brain is maintained. This form of thought will not be fixed as long as this insanity of fixation on thought is thought to be reality - will it be thought of as our only sane choice. Reality and Truth do not rely on thought for their existence. Thought is wholly dependent on Reality and Truth for the possibility to choose so freely as to think our only choice is insanity.

We are here to dismantle the opinions of a presumed self centered in thoughts thinking of themselves. To think such thoughts center our self is to miss that thoughts are centered in thoughts. To try to create or maintain this self creation of reality in thought is to think obsessively about thinking. This false sense of self is a lie and so has “our truth” and “our reality opposed to actual truth as reality. We can think all sorts of things that are not true and think of them as truth but not without causing effects that destabilize our experience by causing stress. Thoughts manifest the effects we feel. Feeling disconnected is feeling thoughts that have no basis in reality as the basis of reality. This backward-addictive thinking vainly claims we are or can be disconnected from reality as a distraction to avoid reckoning with inescapable Truth as Reality. Wearing these sorts of thoughts bears on our psyche and wears us inside out and has not been a good look for humanity. .
An Absolute Source is Perfect Peace since there are no sliding scales that rise and fall or parts to conflict with any or all in that which does not change. An Absolute State of Being remains stable as our thoughts change. Imagine That. Imagine stability is our basis rather than chaos, conflict and calamity.
This episode focuses on the Third Step of Alcoholics Anonymous as we continue to expand our conversation to include an Absolute Source as a non-negotiable or optional State of Being that we and all things share equitably, indivisibly and indiscriminately as our common nature.
There cannot be any exceptions to what is Absolute - so only wrong thoughts - thought of as truth are depressing, demeaning and degrading. This line of irrational thought also includes right thoughts imagined to be wrong. A lie is a lie in any direction. There seems no end or escape from any thought or its consequences that we insist on restarting over and over again. When freedom to choose condemns us it is not freedom but choices imagined real that are condemned since they have no basis other than the right we have to think wrong can be or is right.
Reading our body language is easy when we’re not hell bent on turning the clearly posted sign's upside down. Images in mirrors are always reversed so when imagination is thought of as reality we walk backward witnessing only the results of the collision course we have chosen to turn our back to and act as though life is complicated rather than be bothered to notice it is simply the premise of our thinking.
We are designed to survive - and thrive. Love does not take so cannot create misgivings. It is mistaken thinking that is the source of our problems - especially when we think it is not.
We Know We Know and are Aware We Are Aware. This is worth mentioning, discussing and admitting. Our thoughts are naturally aligned with Truth even while manifesting effects that consume our attention and mistakenly seem to be all we can do. Not so.
Let’s talk.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts.Free choice is the freedom to choose anything, everything, and nothing. Simply because we have the right to think what we want doesn’t make what we think right. Choice is the will to want even enough is never enough. Not choosing is a principle of choice. We are free to think what we want and that includes any and all consequences. If our calculation is right we get what we thought we wanted. If our calculus is wrong the consequence of circumstance is the curriculum to learn from our mistake. Dismissing the learning curve is how shortsighted thoughtlessness reactively repeats its performance. Reaction is one common denominator of obsessive thoughts. Another is that thoughts lacking substance equal zero. Zero is not a number so it does not count. No substance equals no applicable, productive or constructive purpose in reality and so is useless.
Learning to live on life’s terms means learning to adjust to what happens as it happens. It is not wishful, should’ve, would’ve, or could’ve mindless wandering but an actualization of aligning thought with the terms Life prescribes, as prescribed.
To any degree, thinking is used presumed to be the primary basis for our existence overcoming the disturbing effects of this narrative may feel imperative but can never be accomplished. Feeling wrong as though we’ve been wrong will continue for as long as this irrational line of thinking continues.
Mirrors reflect images just as thoughts are imagined reflections. Images in mirrors are reversed, and so too does our thinking become backward. Lies only exist in thought, any claim of their reality is a choice to fight against Reality. To think what is false is true is an impossible battle. Our experience primarily suffers while thinking is repeatedly asked to do what cannot be done. It is this misuse of thinking that is the problem - not thinking.
Addiction is the vain attempt to reverse nature’s order. Acting out of order and developing multiple mental and physical disorders is a guaranteed byproduct of trying to accomplish this impossibility. Lies only attempt to be what they are not and can never be. No amount of faith or belief will make a lie true. We know better and are guilty for the shame produced. This would not happen if we did not know better.
Reactive, impulsive and compulsive behaviors openly, as a mirror reflects images even while we disclaim their value. Not looking does not make what is here disappear. Trying to escape rather than value these effects further exemplifies how addictive thinking feeds on itself. To act as though what is happening is not actually happening is a prayer that desensitization - the numbing effect of denial as the psychic anesthesia of ignorance - will aid in escaping culpability for the imposition of this form of insanity. To put ourself asleep to avoid culpability is an excuse - what would there be to excuse if we had nothing to do with it? Thinking this way is a death wish especially when we think to our “self” it is a secret. To imagine that not existing is our only salvation is a suicidal tendency.
We Are Present where all things occur and all possibilities exist. Healing is natural when we wake up to see imagination is imagined.

Step Two - sees that if there is an Absolute Source it is primary to existence, not optional or negotiable. Essence is essential so nothing and no one can be exceptions to this - including contrary thoughts imagined to define Reality or our “self”.
If IT can help us with our problem(s) we are asked to consider if there can be anything greater than the limits of what we think of our thoughts, as though they define the life of our self. Once this possibility is imagined the limit of any and all ideas can be seen as the adventure in f everything always beginning rather than a defensive end maintaining an ideas about our reality that are not true.
To see thoughts clearly is to see through them rather than imagine they have any solidity. Clarity sees how central mistaken ideas presumed right are to inner conflict and noticing that we could not see our thoughts if we were in stuck in them, or to them as if we can drown in thoughts drowning in more thoughts. Our supposed reality seems to hold us hostage to mistaken beliefs that have caused an intoxication with grievous misgivings to obscure the choices made that cause the conflict while clearly experiencing their depressing effects.
Freedom to think whatever we want means we can each think differently about the same thing. Fighting over words that convey Spiritual Principles is a distraction to control and avoid reckoning with nature’s nature.
We Know we Know and our stable source does not change even while we twist and turn our thoughts.
Reality Is as Truth Is: Pure Consciousness as Infinite, Love as Life Is Light as Existence Is Ever-Present-Knowing-Awareness.
How we wrongly think about reality is a problem with thinking - not reality. Imagine That.
As It IS, We Are.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts.Free choice is the freedom to choose anything, everything, and nothing. All, any or no options are possible choices. Choice is will. Will always wants even when wanting more of less, less of more, or nothing at, or of, all. The freedom not to choose is a choice that is always an option. We are free to think what we want so we want what we choose including any and all consequences. If our calculation is right we get what we thought we wanted. If our calculus is wrong we get the exact curriculum needed to learn from our mistake. To think consequences are not what we want dismisses leaning from the value of our thought’s shortcoming. This reaction is a common denominator for obsessive thoughts. Another common denominator for any thought lacking substance is Zero.
Learning to live on life’s terms means learning to adjust to what happens as it happens. It is not wishful, should’ve, would’ve, or could’ve mindless wandering but an actualization of aligning thought with the terms Life prescribes.
Life is Absolute and Responsible for the nature of nature which is our nature. As Beings, we have life forms for which we are Absolutely Responsible. This means Freedom, Responsibility, and Choice are not options but represent the stability by which our Being nature can be expressed to realize our human form’s capacity. Well-being is based on how well we express our shared nature that always gives all to all that are and all that is. All this to say there can be no problems, conflict, struggle, anguish, or insanity in what Is Absolute. Problems are based on make-believe as we struggle to create and maintain our own reality and truth. It is no wonder trying to accomplish this has us think Reality, Truth and Life are difficult and a complicated, mysterious struggle while we chronically continue to press the issue as though it is possible.
Thoughts are imagined, imagine that. Thoughts aren’t reality so don’t create reality. Thoughts manifest effects - if we don’t like the effect we are perfectly free to change the thought. To think this is not correct is to think you have no other choice. Addiction is based on imaging that can be or is true.
Getting better doesn’t always feel better. Feeling better is getting better at feeling whether we like what we feel or not.
Listen up, Watch your words both inner and outer - they reveal your thoughts. Notice how changing thoughts changes your experience.

This episode focuses on Step One of the Twelve Steps. Since the disease of addiction is mental it is lying that is central to the reactive nature of obsessive thinking. To think lies have power is to think they are real and as their creator our seeming reality - who we think we are - becomes only what we think. Since lies attempt to reverse nature’s order then belief in them has us begin to think backward so right is wrong, false is true and stop means go and so forth: meaning we couldn’t possibly be responsible for doing what we’re doing by causing the effects we claim to be happening to us.
Any thoughts? We're happy to hear from you and answer any questions or pass on your ideas.

if we are the agents of change that choose conflicted thoughts then we can easily get better by relying on and expressing the nature of our essence rather than relying on ideas that are not true. Obsessive thoughts are not an accident or a curse - they are choices - and like all addictive behaviors they seem to happen to us to justify the irresponsibility of thinking we have nothing to do with them and thus can do nothing about them. Managing insanity presumes there is something to manage. Out of control is unmanageability since there is nothing to manage even while delusional thoughts are “our” reality. This thinking suggests insanity is sane which is like denying a lie is a lie and so it’s supposed management maintains the depressing effect.
Dreams, like obsessive thoughts, as long as we they are real do we think we are in them - until we wake and realize we were only having them. We can’t be what we have anymore than an eye can see itself. Think of thoughts in this way.
Any insistence to maintain conflicted thoughts has the thought appear to impose itself on us. To claim we have nothing to do with it mirrors the claim there is nothing we can do about it. All of these conclusions are lies.
Responsibility, Freedom, and Choice are fundamental principles of mental health. There are no victims or insanity in reality. As Sentient Beings sensitivity is intelligence so we cannot be too smart for our own good - though we can dumb our experience down by narrowing the focus of our awareness to conclude the nature of truth as reality is only what we think.
Sobriety is recovery from symptomatic addictions induced by imagining fantasy is reality. Reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors all fit into this category as they are based on a lie that lies have the power to become reality. Reality as an Infinite Source cannot be more or less than it is since it is not a quantity but the quality of perfect peace.
Emotional sobriety is sane living. Essence can seem unseen until understanding sees it does not need to be thought of to be essential for existence. We Know more than we think or mental anguish would be a normal disturbance and not feel uneasy. Pain tells us something is wrong. To misread this to mean run faster to escape, get over it, or feel better about it is to insist the problem causing the pain persists.**Zero is not a number. It is the concept of nothing used to understand everything in mathematical terms. Math is said to be the universal language. If understanding the universe comes from no-thing then considering Infinite Indivisibility may seem beyond comprehension while it is certainly possible to imagine an ever Present Knowing Awareness is here now where Life Is, where we always are, as we are.
An Absolute State, like our Present Knowing Awareness, has there here and then now since seeking to find what, where, why and when are no longer places to go further or get more of to find what cannot be found has never been lost but to thought lost in perpetual thought thinking of itself as reality.
The Present is enough as enough as there is no more or less to Know or find in Absolute Present Knowing Awareness. We are as We Are NowHere. Period.

**Addiction relies on fighting imagination. What does not exist cannot be a problem, though we can apparently think otherwise.
There is no struggle in Reality or Truth. It is only imagination thought of as reality that causes mayhem, destruction and is witnessed by feeling unstable, doubtful and uncertain.
We are free to think what we want so when we feel condemned it is the thinking we imagine to be reality that is condemned since it has no basis - even when we think it is real and all there is to think about.**

The denial of thoughts we don't think we are thinking will be equally balanced with the denial of things possible as impossibilities. What we think internally will be used to create circumstances we used to pretend our wrong thought is right.
Expect people to do what they do and things to happen as they happen. This is how things are despite what we think. Quickly the abundance of what is happening will exceed any expections we think we don't have.
Dissolution dissolves problems. There is no resolution needed once there is no problem. To think it possible to break from reality and then think more and more obsessive thinking proves we can make and have our own reality is to set a course of enormous complexity only to end where we started.
To see thoughts as imagined is to see thoughts clearly. There are no obstructions in clarity so there is nothing to get over, go through or feel better about.
Addiction relies on fighting imagination. What does not exist cannot be a problem, though we can apparently think otherwise.
Our conversation is about doing what we're doing to be causing the effects we are experiencing. Seen honestly addiction has no hold over us and cannot condemn us. Our thoughts, brain and ego cannot attack us since they are illusions. If imagination was reality it wouldn’t be imagined.
There can be no disillusion where illusions are seen as illusions. And there can be no solution while we insist on maintaining any delusional problem.**

We do not need nor can we be the creators of reality to accomplish this. For pilots proper attitude allows them to maintain altitude and avoid a** crash landing. Our experience is filled with metaphors for edification. The Present is as constant as are the opportunities to learn to correct what is wrong. Anything we do to pretend otherwise causes impressions that are depressing the longer we fight to control them - as we can falsely imagine them as independent, able to afflict pain by attacking us, as though thoughts have a life or “mind” of their own. Insanity is imagination thought of as reality - not reality.
We’ve been thinking backward long enough to recognize the maligned effects that have littered and scarred the storied landscape of recorded human history. Lies only happen in human brains. We have been fighting over internal conflict to develop the irrational excuses we’ve used to think killing our “selves” and each other is the best or only thing we can do to survive. Insanity as insanity is sane awareness. Insanity as sanity is not.
Normalizing abnormality conflicts with our instinct to thrive and survive. Perhaps talking about it could help us see it is not only what we are each doing but what we are all doing immaturely that is killing us prematurely.
Responsibility, Choice, and Freedom are fundamental to Emotional Sobriety is mental health.

Our body language is a highly developed guidance system. It is a sensual language that thinking converts into words. Functional literacy determines our human productive capacity to act and interact constructively. Inner conflict accurately assesses the conflicted reactivity of obsessive thoughts and the consequential dysfunctional outward actions that result. Choosing to destabilize, abnormalize and desensitize our experience to feel better about delusional thinking counters our natural instinct to thrive, provide and survive.

We Know more than we think or mental anguish would be a normal disturbance and not feel uneasy. Pain tells us something is wrong. To misread this to mean run faster to escape, get over it or feel better about it is to insist the problem causing the pain persists. .
Seeing Illusions as illusions dissolves the potential for disillusion. Delusions like lies only seem to exist when wrongly thought of as true and thus real. Dreams can seem real until we awake. Day dreams can seem real and the longer we struggle to act like we are awake - thinking that life is a nightmare rather than our nightmarish thinking.
Life provides all possibility. False beliefs maintained require obsessive thinking since trying to turn fantasy into reality is impossible. Disordered thinking causes anxious dis-orders. Thoughts are products of nature and reality - not yhe creator of either.**
Our right to think what we want does not make what we think right. Lies re-lie on the claim they are the only thing they can never be: true. There is no conflict in Truth as Reality since there are no parts or pieces in an infinite realm to oppose - regardless of how we might oppose Infinite ideas in thought.
If Reality is not limited to thought - and need not be thought of to Be - do we grieve death or mourn the loss of ideas we wrongly think define life and as a result defend to an early death from the stress of thinking our life depends on them?
Inspiration is Life and Love affirming awe, stability and assurance. It Is not a choice as IT IS the nature of nature - including ours.
There is no fear or scarcity in abundance just as time and space have no place in our Infinite Present Knowing State.
Inspiration is our functional capacity as it is realized - our expression of It is actualized and the fulfillment of our experience is guaranteed. .

Sobriety is recovery from the insanity of symptomatic compulsive behaviors.
Emotional sobriety is sane living. Honestly facing the induced nature of insanity’s haunting sensations is to watch these foggy notions dissolve. Resolution requires constant reapplication. Dissolution sees nothing so to see this leaves nothing left to solve. Delusions like lies only seem to exist as long as we believe in them by thinking we have nothing to do with them as though there actually is something to have nothing to do with. All we struggle with are present thoughts we think are reality rather than concede they are nothing more or less than imagined - a foggy notion.
There is no conflict in Truth as Reality since our universal existence = Light = Life = Love.
In mathematics and Life problems = the solution. There are no problems unsolved in Reality only in thought misapplied to nature’s order. Life does not pose problems. Humans create problems when thinking about Life’s natural order incorrectly. Maintaining these beliefs causes disorder; socially, mentally and emotionally.**
Thinking is not inherently obsessive. Emotions inherit the chaos and commotion of obsessive thoughts that are bent into a vicious circular cycle going round and round trying to straighten things out. Lies re-lie on the claim they are the only thing they can never be: true.
It is what we each think of what we see and hear that determines our experience. If we can make things worse we can get better at expressing nature that = well-being.
If Reality is not limited to thought - and need not be thought of to Be - do we grieve or fear death or is it the loss of the ideas we think define us as humans, as bodies with brains that think - that we are afraid to give up thinking our life depends on them? Could it be that Life depends on the delusion of insanity? Can we ever pay enough tribute to passing life-forms by mistaking the nature of our existence to be nothing more than a temporal body whose inevitable success is failure?
Need we only think the best of those gone before noticing that same essence is in all those that remain with their remains? If there is any possible tribute could it be worth paying accurate attention to those now rather than wait for them to be "gone" and wonder why we didn't?
It is what we do now with all that we have, which is all there is, that primarily impacts our human experience simultaneously with all that is and all that are.
Inspiration or desperation will manifest effects that reflect like a mirror in our experience based on our choice.

NOTICE, CONSIDER, IMAGINE:
We are human having a spiritual experience - or we are spiritual having a human experience. Make a choice and notice what occurs. If a sense of stability and curious awareness develops then living with the decision may be warranted and right. If the lingering results have you feel gripped with conflict, instability, and a tendency to want to "feel better“, "make it right”, or feel stuck or disconnected these conditions are centered in how thinking is used. These conditions can be high or low grade and like viruses persist beyond any welcome.
Stability makes mental instability obvious. Feeling out of sorts, out of place, disconnected, or alone would never occur if our human experience was not stable and aware, at least at its rooted source, that we are always as we are, when and where we are - here and now.
Consider these thoughts:
You are as we all are - always where and when we are: Here Now.
The moment is always new so it never gets old. All possibility is always possible. Done is over and done. The past is nothing more than a thought. The Present is the culmination of all that has ever happened. To fix the past is to reckon with the present. This is the same for the seeming future as it is only imagined. Once the future is present. like the past was, it is no longer there and then but here and now. To take imagination so seriously as to think fantasy is reality - is insanity.
There is no possibility of insight developed by ignoring that which is in sight - That rather than what is happening.
Sub-stance is fundamental to all life-forms as under-standing is the basis for expressing our human functional capacity.
The indivisible substance seems invisible as long as it is misunderstood.
Under-standing and Sub-stance are the foundation of principled choices, as they are both firmly under where we stand; and the positions we take.
Essence is essential; not negotiable or optional. Maligned thoughts do not change Reality but manifest inner conflict, emotional turmoil and mental anguish in our human experience.
Nature is natural. Our nature is nature and natural. Obsessive thinking is an insane possibility That is unnatural, unhealthy, unreasonable, illogical,/insane, and preposterous.
We already answered when and where above. Now - consider THAT which is happening is not in question or doubt like what, who, why, and how.
Choices are what thoughts are and can be based on inspiration or desperation. The consequence of either is the basis of both That will grow as long as the seed is nourished.
Evidence of our Absolute Freedom is that the Present is always new. Thinking we are condemned to repeat the past is a choice made freely in the present to feel condemned by them or then.

Sobriety is recovery from the insanity of symptomatic compulsive behaviors.
Emotional sobriety is the sane dissolution of the mental dis-ease of obsessive thinking that is central to all addictive behaviors.
Honestly facing the induced nature of insanity dissolves the images and their haunting effects.
Obsessive thoughts are not an accident or a curse. They are a choice to think fantasy is reality and that lies can be or someday will be true - though never now or today.
To search endlessly for a lost cause that cannot be found is futile. To act as though always present cause can he lost is a choice. The right to think what we want does not make what we think right.
The Present is the Absolute State of
Conscious Awareness of all that Is, all that Are and all that is happening now. There is now/here else as we are connected to everything else. To think the Present is somewhere else is to deny reality and truth in favor of creating our own distinct brand. Feeling condemned is the natural consequence of trying to do what cannot be done. This insane concept is reliant on freely choosing to utilize a thought thinking only of itself. Insanity is rooted in the disturbance of hallucination’s fractured versions of divergence.**Recovery from any compulsion lays bare other compulsions. Any relief from one compulsion serves notice of others. Compulsions, one and all, are trying to escape the seemingly interminable nature of obsessive thoughts. The dis-easiness, discomfort, and disturbance of obsessive thoughts is the primary addiction to reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors. Obsessive mental attachment is not a curse or accident. It is a repulsive mental “gag reflex or knee-jerk” automated reaction to the misuse of thinking that thinking is reality rather than imagined. Problems with belief, expectations, judgments, and a host of other social ailments and relational conflicts result from this preoccupation with thinking that has no basis in reality.
It is not a coincidence that trying to feel better is common. Asking what is worse that we want to feel better than is uncommon. Common sense becomes uncommon within this reversed order of thought. Addiction attempts to turn impossibility into possibility, false into truth, and fantasy into reality. Aptly named mental and physical disorders are also reflections of these backward unhealthy attachments.
Trying to chronically feel better by avoiding what is worse ignores and reinforces what is mentally wrong. Constantly refilling a tire with air would be ridiculous if fixing the leak was possible. It is no different with obsessive, addictive, attachment to thinking. Honesty can only come from the experience we each have. While anyone can think they think they can tell us what or how to do what we do - they Av not and do not. It is our prerogative to think as we do by choosing thoughts and getting exactly what we have - regardless of what we think we’re thinking.
Facing thought honestly as the cause of honestly dissolves obsessive problems rather than acting mentally defective trying to prove inner conflict will surrender as we continue to maintain it.
Carry on.

For those souls and sailors who imagined the horizon was the end of the world it was not the horizon that spelled doom is was their thinking. Today is no different as we witness insane behavior in hyper-reactive defense of maintaining limited ideas as reality it is not what is beyond our thoughts that cause dread but the nature of imagining the content of thought is reality that feels full of fear. Righteousness is never right while rightness is never wrong.
We Know We Know as We Are Aware We Are Aware.
The beautiful irony of the horizon is that it can never be reached. It moves and we approach as what was there but unseen I’d revealed. Only half of any sphere can ever be seen simultaneously.
There is no greater primary conflict that undermines the stability of our enormous human capacity than to imagine Reality and who we are is limited to what and how we think.
The Present nature of our existence is all there is to Know since IT IS Absolute, without variation, articulation, color, discrimination, inequity or change. To think we don’t know what we cannot see is to think we are solely reliant and only a product of our thoughts. This form of thought makes reality untrue and truth unreal. This line of insane thinking has our twisted thoughts think our experience is happening to us rather than being caused by us. There are no secrets, victims, fear or insanity in Truth or Reality.
Cause manifests effects. Having wrong thoughts about reality as reality is as discomforting as it is disturbing - for perfectly good reason.
Principles don’t change. Obsessive thoughts constantly change what is thought about reality, truth, and life. Lies are backward delusional attempts to reverse nature’s order.
Our integrated experience is Omniscient (Intuition / Knowing) and the stable unchanging basis for our Absolute Being Awareness and thus our human nature.
There is nothing to achieve, nothing more or less to give, forgive, give up or forget, no place to go and nothing to become if an Absolute Infinite Source exist then all that are and all that is cannot be exceptions to this. If this is the case then the cases we make to deny our spiritual nature is a malady in thought, delusion and insanity not Reality.
We are all free to think what we want so it is our decision to choose that determines not only our but the human condition. Nobody can do this for you since you are Free and the freedom of this independence is the abundance of our intimate and seamless interactive connection.
It may seem grandiose to imagine our basis is Infinite or Absolute. It is certainly grandiose and humiliating to imagine that it is not - if IT IS.
This is not theoretical since it is perfectly applicable: efficient, effective and practical. Try it on. Reality and truth do not depend on unlimited faith, belief or hope. Any amount applied will be confirmed by the natural alignment of thought following the leader.
Carry on.**

**MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the fluidity and immediacy of our shared current events.
Sobriety is sanity from any symptomatic compulsive behavior. Emotional sobriety is sane living from the insanity of reactive, impulsive obsessive thoughts central to acting out in all the varied symptomatic forms of addiction.
To think all that is happening is only what we think is to think thoughts are reality, truth, and always right. To fight for the right of wrong imagines chronic focus will have thought and our seeming self turned into the truth of reality. It is not sane to set this collision course up and blame life for becoming impossibly complicated.
Thinking is not our problem until it is mistakenly chosen as our only source, our only choice and all we can do and thus all we must be. This is not true. Lies have no basis in reality so entertaining them has is sickly think we can turn our back to reality. We are allergic to lying and so react abnormally and mental disorders reflect thinking that is out of order that reflects our out of order behaviors.
Reality and Truth do not change. It is our experience that suffers when we think reality and truth rely on our changing thoughts. This form of thought feels disconnected and alone and suggests we can’t, won't, or aren't imagining that it is thinking disconnected from reality that we feel.
These concessions in thought are not always welcome but that does not mean the door is not open.
Honesty does not require waiting to say the right thing. Honesty accurately assesses what is right or wrong. We know the difference. We would not struggle with feelings of guilt or shame if we didn’t know better than we think. Our nature is natural.
Consider this: if we can make believe we are not doing what we are doing then we can easily think we have nothing to do with that which is happening. The flip side of this is to begin to recognize that we don’t have to think we’re doing what we’re doing to be making what is happening - happen.
Free will is the right to choose to think what we want. This means we want what we think and the effects we create. This does not make what we think right.
The ability to respond is considerate, accountable and responsible. Reactivity is an automated defense against our practical ability to be honest. Lies rely on defense. Honesty does not make more or less of things. The weight we bear is the matter we make.**To freely choose to feel condemned and think we have nothing to do with it is insane. Cause manifests effects. Having thoughts wrong about reality is as discomforting as it is disturbing - for perfectly good reason. To think we are victims of these effects is how the lie of addiction works: everything seems backward. This is not a coincidence but the direct consequence of lying.
Principles don’t change while obsessive thoughts about reality, truth, and life always change while charging ahead in reverse as a major distraction to our greater knowing awareness - that does not disappear when we don’t look.
Fantasy as reality is fictional accounting. When things don’t seem to add up it is because they don’t. Reconciliation adds up whether the accounting starts from the top or bottom. Honesty can approach the correct result from any direction in any order. When that which is happening includes all that we see and hear - and all that we can’t see or hear that can be seen through understanding - our integrated experience notices Omniscience (Intuition / Knowing) as the stable basis for our Absolute Being Awareness and human nature.
It is not grandiose to imagine our basis is Absolute. It is grandiose and humiliating to imagine that it is not.

Understanding is supervision into the invisibility of substance eyes can’t see. This subatomic-sub-stance can seem subconscious while it is our greater knowing awareness. Even so while witnessing its clarifying effects helping us distinguish wrong from right we can think we don’t see.
Understanding is vision seeing the unseen while eye-sight focuses on forms. Clairvoyance means clear sight. Knowing doesn’t think since it knows. Intuition is knowledge beyond reason meaning there is no reason, understanding or thought required to Know.
Mind Knows - brains think so think they know.
Beings Know - humans do - thinking is a primary action leading to by preceding all forms of expression.
To misinform or misunderstand thoughts is to imagine all there is to see and hear is limited to what we think. Once this short sightedness is thought to be reality this approach opposes our instinctive nature to survive and thrive abundantly - and so is a mental illness, or dis-ease causing both
Thoughts thinking of themselves are naturally limited by what is thought. Thinking about thinking does not create our self but more thought thinking of itself spawning more and more thought.
Scarcity of thought is an imagined limitation, limited only by thoughts sourced in thinking of themselves. Reality and Truth have no limits so need not be thought of to Be as They Are. Reality is not effected since it does not change when our thoughts constantly change.
Essence as any Absolute Nature or Source is indivisible, immutable, inviolable, indiscriminate and equitable. The per-verse or twisted version of a free for all is thought to be freedom for some at the expense of others. In fact any Absolute Being Nature is Free For All, without exception, reservation or need of one.

Nobody can do this for us. Thinking it is impossible to come to terms with mental problems is to imagine effects act on their own and have nothing to do with how we’re thinking. Think again.
Cause precedes effects while effects are simultaneous reflections of cause, like any reflection. The two are inseparable. To miss this point is to imagine effects are a lost cause - impossible to stop so trying to get over them or feel better about them is futile, frustrating and seems to be the nature of life while based in unnatural thought. To think nothing can be done while chronically focusing on the effect is crazy in the making since distractions perpetuate the cause. The obvious does not disappear when we aren’t looking . Fantasy as reality imagines each have become the other. Any lie lasts only as long as it is thought to be the one thing it can never be - true. Impossibility seen as impossible is aligned with and can be utilized in our human expression of reality.
Talking internally to shifting thoughts about this “sleight of hand” indicates an awareness of doubt and questionable motives. We know more than we think and we know better than to think all we know is limited to what we think. We would not have such great capacity to think, feel and know what is wrong if this was wrong.
Insanity is seeing and hearing things that are not happening. There’s nothing wrong with playing games though there is no winning gain in losing our brain’s ability to function productively and usefully.
Having our experience as it happens provides imagination the fluidity to naturally evaporate into expansive consideration rather than resist and perpetually shrink wrap chronic thought into a smaller and smaller ball trying to make a point never made - as though more of the same is all we can do amd doing more of it will fix the problem thinking creates.

M**OD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled - always happening now - so each episode reflects the fluidity and immediacy of the current events we share.
Sobriety is sanity from any compulsion. Emotional sobriety is living sanely.Selfish, self-centered, self-serving ideas are thoughts. Thinking about thinking creates more thoughts. Thinking about thinking itself does not create our self as anything other than what is imagined, in thought. Thoughts serving thoughts create fear once we think we become their reality they seem to become our master. We know better so acting otherwise we feel afraid. Thinking we’ve been reduced to only what we think is Insane. Insanity never thinks it’s insane. Guilt and shame are byproducts of this imagined master as we bear like slaves “its” unbending rule - as though our chance and choice to dream is reality. To think Life becomes impossible because we choose to believe in impossible ideas reinforce the idea we have nothing to do with obsessive thoughts. We can think whatever we want. Trying to feel better or get over any disturbance treats the effect by thinking that avoiding the cause is possible. Ignoring disease is not a cure but a guarantee it will get worse.
When thinking is imagined to be reality the defensiveness to be right is an automatic fight for what is wrong. It is the present thought - that triggers obsessive thinking NOW. There is nothing to stop when of obsessive thinking is seen clearly. Feeling confused disappears as it becomes obvious we have absolutely no obligation whatsoever to continue. We know what we are doing or would not feel bad or wrong. We would not be ashamed if all we could do was the same thing over and over again while watching things get worse.
Ovid’s story of Narcissus is over two thousand years old. Briefly: Narcissus fell in love with his image as his reality. This meant he could not love or care for anyone else or attend to his basic needs. So he starved to death along with others like Echo who died by their own hand for their unrequited love for him. In both cases, love’s ideal was perverted. This story is told by anyone and everyone who thinks they are or their "reality" is only a thought’s image of itself. Obsessive thoughts are narcissistic. Our image is an image just as our thoughts are thoughts. Neither determine reality nor are products of real possibilities.
Self-centered thinking has been occurring as long as righteous indignation has ignited hatred to justify suppressing, oppressing, or killing people for how they think or appear. For as long as thoughts are considered reality appearances and what others think are blindingly magnified to be seen as the greatest threat.
If you think you have no influence over anyone consider the influence you have on everyone. If this sounds crazy how less crazy is it to think we have no influence whatsoever? Karma as the consequences of actions is immediate and represents the sum of all that is happening as the cumulative effect of everything that has ever happened. This totality represents society, the animal kingdom, and the universe - while culture is based on what we think.
Sanity or insanity, To Be or not to be still persists as a question: are we real or imagined, substantive or only projected forms appearing real? Are we only human devoid of any greater substance or is humanity a possibility of reality? Dreams feel real. What is possible only seems impossible until we notice how condemned we think we are to repeat thoughts over and over again as a repetition of our awareness they are over as soon as they are chosen, to start with.
Carry on.

Circumstances are consequences offer a textbook perspective on how thinking relates to the functional nature of the unshakeable, ever-present Reality and Truth. Conflicted chronic thoughts are a natural guidance system, like pain, to draw attention to what is wrong. Ignoring this is the vain claim obsessive distractions can dominate and obscure reality while choosing to obscure thinking. Experience reckons with the weighty depressing impact of any resistance that is imagined to pose as, impose or oppose reality or truth.
Thoughts are not at fault for inner conflict, emotional turmoil, or mental anguish. We freely choose to think and feel that we can be condemned by them by thinking of them as reality. Mis-taken thoughts cause mis-givings. Pain measures toxicity in the body's ecosystem. Denial acts like psychic anesthesia. Numbness is evidence of pain. Ignoring is ignorance acting like anesthesia to desensitize us to what is actually happening while struggling with effects we mistakenly determine are happening to us - not caused by us. Overreacting when feeling out of touch can seem to be the only option to get back in touch. Misreading our body language creates functional illiteracy as dysfunctional actions lead the charade parade. Thinking anything happening is not happening is insane once thought of as reality. Things happen as they happen. Con-fusion reflects any divisive thought’s fight against the nature of reality that is indivisible. Loneliness is feeling disconnected thoughts once had a basis. Thoughts with no basis are not disconnected or alone they simply do not exist. Delusion as reality is insane since it cannot be real - it does not exist. Reality is not incomplete.
There are no lies, ego, or addiction in reality. Concepts are imagined in thought. Thoughts and are not inherent problems. It is only imagining them to be reality that creates the impression we can can do nothing else but act on them. This is the reactive urge of mental addiction. What else can we think but to do the wrong thing over and over again to save a supposed self now falsely presumed to be only what we think?
Letting go of what does not exist is impossible just as an Absolute nature letting go of existence. Lies repulse nature and threaten human survival just as addiction and cancer claim control by killing their host. When enough is never enough words and reason are of no use. Experiencing internal betrayal is present traumatic stress dis-order.
Thinking we have nothing to do with insanity has us imagine thoughts happen to us. Victim mentality is seductive to the sick idea that we are irresponsible for what we are thinking. Thinking we have any hope of solving problems we claim to have nothing to do with is circular reasoning. Hoping for hopeless things to come true is just an obsessive thought trying to escape into a vicious repetitive cycle.
Crazy is as crazy does.
Be Cause is not an excuse but the basis of our natural functional capacity.

Sobriety is sanity from any compulsion. Emotional sobriety is sane living.**Reality is not insane. Insanity is not reality. To think insanity is real is to think insanely. Perhaps this irrational approach has gone on long enough. It is what we each do that will determine how well we all do.
We are free to think whatever we want. What happens happens whether we like it or think it shouldn’t be happening. To imagine thoughts are reality feels discomforting, disturbed and dis-eased by producing pressure, stress and anxiety. These conditions undermine our bodily systems ability to function. Choosing impossibility produces obsessive thinking trying to get somewhere that does not exist, somewhere other than here, now. Obsessions are reactive, impulsive and compulsive behaviors designed to escape the inner conflict of any imagined reality conjured by denying actual reality.
Thoughts are not the problem. Our misuse of them causes many problems. Thoughts are a product of reality designed to express it naturally and in favor of mental and physical health. We are of reality and truth we are not in thoughts no matter how deep we dig in our heels to think what we think is reality and this right. We have thoughts and how we think is a choice, something we do. We cannot be something we have or do. We Are as We Are regardless of what we think, say, feel or do.
Reality and Truth are principles of Life. They do not change, do not come or go, so cannot be more or less than all we now have. Using thoughts to define reality can easily have thinking conclude that life is hard - and that human nature is inherently flawed. Choosing obsessively to think wrongly about reality does not confirm human nature is flawed, but confirms what we think about the nature of reality is flawed. We are Absolutely Responsible for what we think. Thinking irresponsibly does not make up reality, make us irresponsible or eliminate or reduce our Responsibility for such thinking. What irresponsibility does when we think it is reality is tonimpose an impossible experience that is very difficult to bear. Obsessive thinking disrupts and disturbs thinking, thus our experience - not Reality.
Try, try, try as we may lies will never come true no matter how long or hard we think, wish and hope they will. Fantasy as reality, like illusions as reality, is insanity. This “state of mind” is not imposed on us but created by us. Yes since denial defends lies thinking we have nothing to do with it is just another link in the chain reaction set off by thinking thoughts are reality and truth.

Emotional sobriety is sane living.Circumstances are textbook examples called consequences that offer perspective on how well or unwell thinking is in relation to the steady, unshakeable, ever-present nature of reality and truth. Maligned thoughts are discordant - strumming chords discord and disharmony that are discomforting. Any problem created in thought causes inner conflict that is our guide to nature. The natural balancing effect of reckoning with this reveals the steady knowing nature we reflect. Even as we subject our experiential “thought life” to suffering our essence or being nature does not change and so is not any more or less - any further from us - so cannot be anywhere other than where, when, and how we are - now. Refusing to notice this is the insistent attempt to claim dominion over reality by committing to maintain unstable thoughts. It is our experience that bears the brunt and weight of resisting the nature of reality and truth, reality and truth bear no consequence whatsoever.
Thoughts are not at fault or to blame. It is our mistaken use of them that causes pain. Pain does not confirm reality but is a built-in Geiger Counter measuring toxicity in our body's ecological, echo system of thoughts. To deny this information is to develop numbness as a solution. Numbness is evidence of pain not the absence of it. The reckoning of a balanced experience is constant. Obsessive thoughts are hell-bent bent refusing to straighten out. Denial offers the temporary appearance of relief like any reactive, impulsive, or compulsive behavior. What is temporary is not real and illusions imagined to be real are delusions. It is impossible to let go of what does not exist. It is also impossible to be let go of by an Absolute nature that is all that exists. It Any idea held so dear as to be true seems to have our life depends on its maintenance. Our actual human existence is threatened by this form of thinking since addiction is the desire to kill the host while claiming to be saving it.
insanity is the willingness to maintain ideas as true that are not true. We need not think we are doing this to be doing this. This is why it seems so easy to take on the role of a victim and dismiss the effects, or circumstances we face, and create as things we don’t think we have anything to do with. Thinking we have any hope or chance of solving a problem we claim we have nothing to do with is just another sick thought masquerading as truth.
We are free to think whatever we want. We want what we think - and so can think again anytime - even when we think we cannot.

Emotional sobriety is sane living.Reflection, as an awakened contemplative meditation, is the chance to see what we imagine, as imagined - distinct from all there is to actually see. To imagine we imagine is to align and assign what we think we see to what we think rather than assume what we think is all there is to see. This includes thinking about our self. To see this clearly has thinking about thoughts themselves replace what was previously wrongly assumed to be our self. There is no conflict, grief or misery in seeing things as they accurately. Thoughts thinking about themselves create more thoughts not conscious beings with life-forms that live and breathe and have brains to think.
Choice is will. We are free to choose whatever we want to think. Ill will is acting on sick choices. Thinking such choices create reality is to think whatever we think is true even when it is wrong. Sick choices thought of as reality is the choice to see and hear things that do not exist not only as though they are alive, but have a life of their own that can attack and condemn us. This fundamental mistaken belief creates inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish. Mental illness is the natural consequence of defending this line of irrational thinking; seeing and hearing things that don’t exist. Addiction is the attempt to reverse the natural order of nature. Thinking something false can be true and thus once accomplished turns us into the all-mighty creators of reality is a giant leap that can never land - since it has no basis in reality, or on earth - other than a thought that is wrong, thought to be right. .

Sobriety is sanity.**
Emotional sobriety is sane living.
Ever wonder why right here and right now are never considered wrong here and wrong now? Wrong is a thought - a possibility to consider what we imagine that does not align with or have any applicable purpose or basis in reality or truth - as its basis is purely what we think. It is not wrong to think wrong thoughts yet once we think they’re right inner conflict, emotional turmoil, and mental anguish are the domestic language our bodies speak, reflecting accurately, like an image in a mirror, exactly what we are thinking. It is how we think not that we think that causes disturbances. This clearly indicates we know better than we think. To think it has nothing to do with us is to think there is nothing we can do to resolve it so repeating it hoping it will come true continues. This mental addictive re-active cycle will not stop as long as we continue to make believe we are not setting it in motion. Emotions are in motion, fluid: a current, current. To think we need to fix them is to think they can be stopped, held in place while feeling captive to the place we are in, thinking it is the last place we want to be - while it is always where we are, as we are, no matter what we think.
To think thoughts are reality is to dream a fight to overcome nightmarish ideas is our life’s purpose. Our discussion aims at dis-spelling the words used to spread these rumors.
Feelings are accurate assessments of how we are thinking not what we are thinking about. A wrong thought does not make me, another persona, or anything else wrong. Wrong thoughts are made wrong initially. To think we are not doing what we are doing to cause them is to think we see clearly how all others and things are wrong. To think Life is impossible simply because we are entertaining impossible ideas is laughable - only after we admit how seriously we have taken our chosen baseless thoughts. Reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors threaten life-forms even as we vainly proclaim to be saving them. Any defensive preoccupation challenges our ability to express the breadth of our functional capacity.
Insanity is not far but immediate to imagining that thinking is reality and thus thinks up our self when thinking of itself. This leads to thinking all we are is thought, and what we think is all we can be; so the only thing we can act upon to save our sup-posed life is reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors. The actual threat of taking this self seriously is the resulting anxiety and stress that actually puts our human life form’s ability to function properly, health-fully, reason-ably, and logic-"ally" at risk.
To love an image exclusively is to inherently hate reality. This story has been told for the whole of written human history as though we are stuck to our past, that is no more than what we think of it, now.
Narcissus died staring at his image for so long that he never loved anyone or anything else. In his case food for thought was a starvation diet - that eventually killed him.
We can always think again. Like with any choice, we are always free not to choose, so always free not to RE choose any obsessive thought.

To think thoughts are reality is to dream a fight to overcome nightmarish ideas is our life’s purpose.
To create imbalance and then chronically try to maintain balance is a fruitless choice. Trying to feel better about what is wrong creates an obsessive balancing act. To think this is all life offers is to pick a fight with life and reality. This makes no sense.
Reactive thoughts threaten life forms even as we claim to be saving them. Any defensive preoccupation challenges our ability to occupy the breadth of our capacity to function fully, ably and beneficially. Insanity is not far from any thought thinking of itself that we imagine is our self; all that we can be; so the only thing we can act upon, in seeming favor of while putting it at risk.
To love an image exclusively is to hate reality. Narcissus died loving his image so much he never looked or loved anyone other than his image.

Exercise:
Start with thinking about anything you think you have no control over. This can be as subtle or intense as a recurring thought about anything that won’t stop, or a chronic defensive reaction that seems automatic and consistently leads to troubled thinking about what is happening. In addition, look at any compulsive behaviors or attachment to having or needing more or less of something or someone else. Watch your experience. Begin to allow for the possibility you will never have any control over these occurrences, that there is absolutely nothing you can do about them, and that they are and will forever be a part of your experience, as their intractable nature will always define you. Conceding this genuinely will at first seem ridiculous and unusual, unnatural and unnecessary. Any genuine commitment to the disturbance will effect a sense of helplessness and hopelessness will often grow as your focus grows. Notice how your experience changes. Coming to terms with your experience and the nature of these seemingly intractable, permanent, stuck conditions can now be better seen as flexible. If you can make them worse you can make them better. But getting better and Being better are two different approaches. Getting better maintains the problem. Being better is the elimination of the problem. If the thoughts are made up so that we can change them and feel better or worse we can also notice it is in the making of them that this can seem the only possibility. If we can make them we can unmake them. Getting better is trying to overcome the thing we think and Being better is noticing it is only a thought and there is nothing to get over. They are only thoughts. Thoughts are only imagined. They only take on characteristics we assign to them. They are what we ask of them, want from them, and demand of them. They do not have a life of their own since they are assigned to govern the life form we’ve been given, that we effectively own, the body that we have, with the brain that has thoughts. We are free to think whatever we want. And when we think up conditions we feel condemned to it is only a lack of sense and sanity since insanity’s nature makes no sense. Choosing not to think insane thoughts can happen as quickly as we concede we are the chooser of them. Once we see how silly it is to make believe they are true the silly nature of who we think we are will be laughable, and easily forgettable, compared to the serious nature of taking a sel born of thought thinking of itself, seriously.

Gabe has been involved in our discussion for a little over eighteen months. He has been a faithful attendee and diligently insightful in sharing his experience which includes the difficulties of coming to terms with what is happening as what he has been doing. He helps me a lot by sharing the bumps he finds to help identify issues that may help others in advance of witnessing them. I'm very glad to share him with you again - he participated previously with Jackie in three episodes still on our list - starting in late December 2021.
Insanity is thinking denial of something that doesn’t exist is proof that it must. The problems that seem to grip us, the ones that cause apprehension and doubt, are those that cannot be comprehended by thinking incorrectly about how we are thinking. It is what we think now about what is happening - since thought is a primary action - that will always cause us overwhelm and dread when thinking it is possible to deny what we’re doing while we’re thinking what we're thinking.
Denial is not a problem any more than wrong thoughts, judgment, expectations or fear are problems. It is only once we think they are true that the interminable inner conflict and emotional turmoil seem to have them become impossible to stop. Wrong thoughts and thinking are not a problem until we think what’s wrong is right. This line of thinking concludes that wrong as right is true, thus we become imagined creators of reality. Taking denial, like any lie, seriously enough to consider it can be true amplifies the impossibility of turning what is impossible into possibility. What is possible from this failure in thought is to learn. Yet once this seeming gulf with reality is considered to be true crossing it seems impossible - despite only being imagined. What is not happening now has no then or there since then and there only exists in what is thought - now. These false branches of Idea-logical knowledge stem from thinking thoughts create reality and truth. Reality and Truth are not dependent on anything so we need not think of them for them to be as they are as essence that is naturally essential.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each episode always reflects the fluid motion and immediacy of current events.
Knowing we have an Absolute Source that is sound, stable, and ever presently available does not mean our thinking is straight or well even as this basis provides the chance to see what we are thinking clearly.
Addiction is a lie - a mental illness - attempting to use every defensive, deceptive tactic to maneuver away from facing what we’re doing. To think things happen to us is to think we have nothing to do with what is happening. This line of irrational thought claims that if we have nothing to do with what is happening there is absolutely nothing we can do to stop. Since lies lie, this is a lie masquerading as truth.
We cannot have our own truth but we can say the thoughts we have that we rely on are our own truth. If we can think what is happening can't or shouldn't be happening it is a good indication that we think thoughts are the creator of reality and truth. To think we can avoid truth is to think thoughts can void truth.
Our basis is intact and unmoved by any commotion we create. If nature is responsible for nature then we as products of nature are responsible. This does not mean we cannot think and act irresponsibly - since we are free to think and act any way we want. What this does mean is that when we think and act irresponsibly we have to do what we‘re doing whether we like the consequences or not.
Thinking is something we do. We cannot be what we do. We are the doer, not the things we do. We are the director of thought, not the thought we direct. We are the knowing observer of what is happening or we wouldn’t so clearly and regularly be aware that something is wrong.
When we look we see. When we look through the lens of thought we see only what we think. To think of what we see in this way as reality is how delusion is created by taking illusions seriously enough to be thought of as anything other than illusions.

Some basic contemplative points -
- You have no obligation to listen, believe, or have faith or hope in anything you hear. What you do with or make of what you hear is up to you as it always has been. Consideration is an awakened meditative contemplation. To float ideas and have them disappear is to see they’ve always fit even as we developed ideas that felt stuck - having no place. Once our thinking aligns with reality and truth contrary thoughts dissolve, they do not need to be re-solved.
- Thinking about what you see is seeing what you think. Thinking about what you hear is hearing what you think. Thinking of thinking itself can appear to become our self. The lens of thought is immediate to our experience but it does not condemn us to see things only as we think of them. This only appears to happen once we think our thoughts are true do we think all we become is what we think.
- The nature of a lie is the attempt to reverse the natural order of things. Lies only last as long as they are thought to be true - once a lie is admitted a lie it is no longer a lie. A lie only claims to be what it cannot be. This attempt to reverse the natural order once it is who we think we are has us think acting out of order and suffer disorders are happening to us rather than be caused by us.
- The uselessness of lies is the ability to apply them to productive, useful ends. Once we decide we are what we think struggling is natural since we've decided to fight reality and truth by claiming our own.
- Once the basis of our seeming existence is fundamentally and fatally flawed - since it has no life any more than our reflection in a mirror breathes - fraudulent and questionable experiences filled with doubt, insecurity, vulnerability, guilt and shame are guaranteed to occur.
- Thoughts cannot get the best of us when they are mis-utilized since they have nothing to offer but failure. We only grieve at a loss when we expect what we’re busy obsessively doing will prevent it.
- All efforts to prove a lie true cause disturbances, and the feeling that something is wrong - which is correct.
- Understanding is how we see substance, that which can seem invisible.
- Eyes can't see themselves and we don't need to think we know to know.
- Misunderstanding always creates imbalance, instability, disturbance, and discomfort as guides to help us correct wrong thoughts.
- Treating effects focuses on everything but the cause.
- Sick thoughts, sick actions. To say we don’t want results that are sick is the chance to understand that we can think that denial of what we think and do actually retracts what has been done to have what is happening, appear as something that isn’t or shouldn’t be happening while it is happening.
- We don’t need to locate any specific lie to concede there must be one or more for causing any doubt or disturbance.
- Absolute nature to nature cannot be lost as it is the nature of our foundation.
- MINDS cannot be blown but the shadows of doubt cast by the cloudy smoke and mirrors thought can project will dis-appear with every breath we take and every move we make - I’ll be watching you and my thoughts too.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each episode always reflects the fluid motion of current events.
Choice always allows not to be chosen. To act or not act reflects this freedom of choice. When we choose to think we shouldn’t be thinking what we’re thinking, while we’re thinking what we’re thinking, we’ve chosen to think that what is possible is impossible. If what we’re thinking we’re doing is impossible then thinking it can be stopped will seem impossible. If we are unwilling to embrace what we’re doing we will not think we have anything to do with it so nothing to stop.
To use freedom to feel condemned is possible. To see it accurately is to see that actual freedom imposes no restrictions. It is what we do with the absolute freedom we have to think that can impose the seemingly weighty experience of depression, dysfunction, and disintegration.
If a chosen thought can manifest conditions that depress our body’s natural systems then what is happening is not cast on us but caused by us. To think pain confirms hallucination as reality is to miss pain’s point to indicate something is wrong or at least worthy of attention.
Neutrality is the natural state of Infinite Awareness and Knowledge. It can take no position since it is not in space or time. Human neutrality is to see that taking a position confirms all other positions can be taken. To take any position in favor of dismissing, rather than confirming all other positions, puts us at odds with reality and there is no getting even as long as we continue.
This is how we feel stuck, stick to our stories, get stuck in thought, can’t stop, think thoughts intrude and attack us, think our ego can be out of control, think there’s an ego to control, think our brain acts against us, think our self is difficult to deal with. None of this is accurate but all concocted by a self born of thought, mistakenly thought to be who we are.
Once thoughts seem to be reality and truth the following tendencies follow:
We think we become the creator of reality and truth and that all we are is what we think.
As the creator - so whatever we think becomes our truth and reality and should be everyone else’s - and all that can and should happen is only what we think.
We are and thus become what we do.
We think we are at risk when what happens isn't what we thought would happen.
We have an ego, a persona, a self that seems to have us.
Ego has a mind of its own, that acts out of order, against us.
Our brain is out of our control, as though it has a life of its own.
Our thoughts can attack us.
Taking things personally is not funny while the self we take seriously is a joke.
That we become what we do.
That we need to watch our words so we don’t say things we’re afraid will come true.
That offense taken has anything to do with what someone else thinks.
That hurt feelings are caused by others.
Life depends on our body, where we think we are centered and live, in our brain.
That the brain is Mind - so what we think we know seems to be all there is to know.
That thinking of things not happening keeps us from the present; and that we can ever not be present.
These are but a few - think of some things you can take for granted and ask whether it is possible they are not true.

The sun does not go up or down. We go around. The sun is out even when clouds abound. If basic thoughts about our environment are wrong imagine how complicated we can make simplicity seem.
How things seem is how things appear. To think things become what we think of them is not to think of them but what we think. This form of thought only becomes self-centered once we believe our thoughts are truth and reality - then leap to imagine we are created by what we choose to think. In fact, thinking about thinking itself only creates more thoughts.
Obsessive thinking seems to protect us from death while the resulting anxiety and stress threaten our body’s existence. This reversal of order serves to entertain only the sick thoughts we’ve employed - to feel better. Feeling better about what is wrong is how things get worse. We each choose how far and hard we want to push and pull things into or out of the orbit which seems to matter as it turns into the gravity of our situations.
Thinking we are thoughts is to think we are in thoughts and have lost all perspective. Rather than having thoughts, we think thoughts have us, can attack us, and be intrusive, and out of our control. This result is all a byproduct of mis-utilizing thoughts' productive potential. In fact, the mechanics of thought are reacting exactly as they do when thoughts that are not true are relied on as truth.
Anyone keeping a secret blushes since there are no secrets. We are free to think about what we want. When what we think seems to condemn us we've chosen thoughts that are condemned. Turning thoughts of great imaginative value into a liability uses feeling our back's against the wall as an excuse to suggest there's nothing else we can do but perpetuate the myth. We don’t fear death we fear life and then feel pitiful of thinking’s plight.
Our basic senses provide us with raw opinion-less data. We translate this sentient data into what we think. Despite our thoughts, things remain as they are, as we are as we are. Clinging to imagined ideas of truth automatically defends against the greatest possibilities in favor of scarcity, insufficiency, and doubt. How things seem accounts for appearance while all things really have substance unseen. Understanding is how we see invisibility. Even our eyes cannot see themselves yet we rely on them to see whenever they’re open. Our substantive nature is no different since our standing is existential. Understanding is how we see the essential realm of the indivisible - that we know we know and are aware we know.
To think of this as complicated is to think that vying for a life that does not exist is practical and sane. Imagine the endless complications involved in trying to have who and what we think become all that we and all things are.
Misconstruing life while trying to get the most out of life is to miss that we are out of our minds, thinking there is any more to get than all we have now. Our fear of letting go of an illusion we cling to as though we are saving our-self is just a thought thinking of itself.
We create our thoughts so when they seem to create us we have clearly turned our back on what is happening so we can imagine it must not be happening. The problem is never a problem until we concede the most fundamental problem.
Consider this and think about it,
so we can practice talking about it.

Taking a joke personally is seldom funny since laughing at a self we only think we are is as uncomfortable as it is embarrassing. When we think who we are is what we think our personality is only what we think of our thinking as is the character we develop to further the narrative. Impositions are impressions are conflicted depressions denying the nature of reality and truth are free with no weight to bear. To take our sup-posed self seriously enough to think that compulsive behaviors are fun while they are suicidal is not sane. The imposter syndrome is no joke whenever we imagine thinking of it-self is actually who and what we are. Once we see thought clearly as thought the seriousness of our case turns to laughter as choosing freely becomes obvious.

Humility is having things as they are. Self-deprecation is grandiose by crediting a self that is nothing at all when it is not thought of or up - and even then its reality is that it is only a thought.
Humility is not a reduction or increase of things since this attempt to manipulate our experience in or out of a self we continue to try to fix - is useless.
Thinking of thinking, thinks of itself, which means it thinks up and bears more thoughts. There is no self born in these thoughts only the seeming weight of bearing what is borne. Thoughts do not create reality or truth despite concluding they must be real and true since thoughts thinking of themselves think only of what is thought by coming up with more thoughts - as though there is nothing else to consider.
Trying to make more or less of something that is imagined is to create the impression there is something to be made more or less of. Thoughts are always changing. To think we are all wet think we are is to commit to never having any stable experience but a constantly changing tide of thoughts that cannot stand still since they’re always on the run, trying to escape the contempt created in the idea that is false parading as truth.
We cause obsessive thoughts. Thoughts don’t happen to us they are set in motion and chosen by us. We are each absolutely responsible for entertaining them so we can dissolve them with much greater ease than maintaining them. If we can make something worse we can get better at having what we make.
Spiritual Principles are all pillars of Life - they are not negotiable or optional since negotiating them is the impossible attempt to alter, avoid, and void Life, Truth, and Reality. This line of irrational thinking only has the experience we create in insufferable thinking.
White light is the combination of all colors and represents all principles as Love. It is not an accident that we associate distinct emotions with distinct colors since it is the motion of our thoughts that creates our emotional experience. Thoughts in turmoil trying like crazy to get themselves right and real - cause emotional turmoil as inner conflict causes conflicted emotions, dark thoughts, and so on.
Anything that is Absolute is not only unavoidable it is the essential essence of our existence. Reality and Truth do not bend to our thoughts - our thoughts bend and break under the weight of trying to conclude they are not only the creators of reality and truth but the conveyors of both, the concluders of both, and should get nothing but credit for both. Bankrupt ideas think constant attention and credit are due while accountability is long overdue on the worthless investment we've made in baseless ideas and the waning return of interest we have while thinking all we can do is continue.
Undoing what is wrong is noticing it as it is in the light as it is impossible for darkness to prevail. This impossibility reveals the Absolute does not come or go, is not more or less, but always as IT IS as We Are.

Addiction is an obsessive commitment to make impossibility possible. Imagining that being consumed with thought turns what is false into truth and reality starts as a weak impression that becomes depressing the longer we try to make the point. What is impossible cannot be done so no matter how maddening the effort it is never enough.
This self-induced, self-imposed state of condemnation is a byproduct of making believe our thoughts are reality and truth rather than imagined. To imagine this is to believe all we are is what we think. Our thought-life is thus threatened by any contrary thought. Claiming we are not causing it is an argument for non-existence (suicide) which seems to be a death sentence exposing the vacant nature of any thought-based self. To think we fear death for that which never lived is another fantasy imagined to be true.
Illusions and images thought to be real are delusions. Delusions are nothing appearing to be everything since they consume so much attention maintaining them. For nothing to become everything reduces everything that actually exists to nothing. Thought-centered thoughts to be true and thus our "self" are shaky manifestations quaking with fear masquerading as something that can never be to keep up appearances.
What is True is always present and real so what is false has no presence or place other than the mired complications and implications imagined. Feeling alone, disconnected, and displaced are natural consequences caused by lonely thoughts having no basis, place, or standing. Functional literacy is our ability to read our language accurately rather than act oblivious like it is a foreign language. To fight against, get over, or feel better about them is to confirm our delusional belief there is something to get over or feel better about.
It is common to think willingness, faith, trust, hope, and belief are in short supply. This tendency reflects obsessive thinking. Hope in hopeless things is hopeless, and so too with any vain useless application of faith, trust, belief, and willingness. What does not exist can never be fulfilled. To think we are not enough when entertaining such thoughts is to see - not truth or who we actually are - but the impact of thinking that all we are is what we think. This impression would not cause depression if it were true.
Imagine how quickly we can focus on fear and loathing while ignoring abundant, spectacular possibilities. Insanity is not sane, since it is imagined to be real. Addiction is not sane since it is imagined to be real. Lies appear to exist only as long as we think they are true. Insanity includes the delusion we think we can do what cannot be Longing for an answer that seems beyond us is thinking the problem we’ve created has nothing to do with us now.
What can be done is easy, graceful, and great-full as it is always possible just as all that is possible is only ever happening where we are now.
There is no there, then or them that are not here now. We are as we are, We know we know, We are aware we are aware. You need not get used to the present moment to confirm reality and truth - now.

Consider the following questions forwarded to the group in advance of this discussion:
- If any perfect essence exists is it essential? Would feeling it exists confirm IT or what we feel?
- Could or do thoughts about reality and truth impact Reality or Truth - or would their impact be limited to the believer’s determined thoughts?
- If thoughts create and control reality and truth wouldn’t they be the creator of life’s power and completely out of our control?
- If things are as things are is it honest or sane to think they are nothing more or less than what we think of them?
- If we have free will to determine our thoughts - and we can observe the thoughts we choose - who are we?

Willingness is this month's principle. No-body who has suffered reactive, impulsive, or compulsive behaviors lacks willingness. Principles are turned into liabilities when we are willing to do the wrong thing, thinking it is right. This also goes for: faith in faithlessness, hope in hopelessness, trust in what is not trustworthy, or belief in what has no basis are all examples. Prayer is the same. If we are praying for what cannot be done, we are praying for a lie to be true and life can quickly seem impossible when it is the entertainment of impossible thoughts creating that impression. Acting on baseless ideas is a commitment to failure unless failure was intended. The longer such impressions are maintained, the greater our sense of depression.
In the obsessive case, we can't apply enough principles to get what we think we want to work. Yet to do what can be done takes little will or principled application of faith, trust, belief, or hope to have what we do work, functionally, productively, and beneficially. Taking maligned action cannot make us or save us. Taking affirmative action provides for all of us.
When we are willing to do what works our effort is confirmed immediately. Fulfillment is natural when we think in alignment with what is actually happening rather than thinking all that is happening is what we think is happening.

“Obsessive thoughts deal in never and impossibility. Obsessive thoughts are never happy since they want only what they cannot have since lies can never be true. “
Willingness cuts both ways. Like faith, hope, trust, and belief if we have faith in faithless things, hope in hopeless things, trust is what is not trustworthy, or believe in the unbelievable obsessive thinking will never make them come true no matter the time spent thinking they will, one day just never today.
We haven’t lacked willingness but aligning our will with a greater knowingness than what we think.
If our state of being is natural then it is only what we choose to think incorrectly that casts shadows of doubt on our experience - giving us the impression that we can be disconnected, alone, and apart from an Infinite source.
Addition presumes things are all backward. Considering our conclusions as backward can help us realize the clarity our awareness provides.
Reality and Truth are not complicated, difficult, or threatening. It is what we think about them that creates that impression.
Difficulties are distractions so we can imagine the problem is covered and hidden. If we can be so clever as to develop a thick layer of camouflage to think we can hide we are equally better able to not restart or redo this vain attempt to play hide and seek while we chronically refuse to admit we seek what we know - by maintaining the myth we don’t think we know.
There is no Infinite Spirit, God, or Supreme Consciousness that gives or takes from us. The traits we use to blame God are the human traits we choose to refuse to admit are the choices we make to harbor the ideas we create.
Humans have been searching to solve the problem that is recreated every time we think it is any more than what we think that is wrong.
Addiction is thought of as a subtle foe until seen clearly when what is obvious is how obscene our delusion and willingness to defend, defy and deny our experience has been.
Willingness, faith, trust, hope, and belief are of no use when they are used to chronically rely on lies.
Yet once we put forth any effort that is aligned with Knowledge and concedes how things actually are our experience is immediately confirmed with our greater sense of stability and knowing that are no longer fixated on obsessively entertaining thoughts that are not true.
No amount of human effort or will can be used to create what exists presently. Yet once we are willing to see the lengths we go to maintain thoughts as our source it becomes obvious that nothing has ever been limited to thoughts limits - only our addictive reliance on hoping one day our limited thoughts will come true.
We have humanized God and dispirited humans by making believe it is up to us to achieve what we have been freely given and cannot lose.
We are free to choose what we want so trying to justify wanting to act and feel out of order, out of sorts, and insane will never be sane.
It is only our choices that have no basis, thought of as real and true, that trigger our desperate effort to fix them, rather than notice there is nothing to fix in what does not exist.

John and I have a long history. He wanted to focus on some of his questions and so we have. He also thought his questions might help others too. The opportunity to have his proactive focus is helpful as this discussion develops. We will probably continue as his questions were ordered on a pad many pages long and may be growing.
Some things to consider, or think about:
- We are free to choose what we think. It is what we choose that impacts what we think the most.
- Thoughts are primary actions, or causes, that lead to interactions or inter-reactions. The distinction between these is that one is seamless the other presumes a fight as proof it exists. Thoughts we don’t think we’re thinking seem to happen to us - and so reactions defend a position impossible to maintain. Reactive thoughts are obsessive thoughts thinking the longer they are maintained the greater the chance they’ll come true. True is already true despite what we think.
- Feelings are bodily effects largely reflecting how well or poorly we are thinking on behalf of our bodily experience. Feelings are aware of what we Know and so we feel bad when we’re not expressing it - by obsessing over it.
- TRUTH AND REALITY do not cause feelings since they are absolute just as thinking does not cause reality. If this were not true we would not be so keenly aware of what is wrong - with our thinking even when we try to assign our problem to the world, its people, or our circumstances.
- To stabilize thoughts simply consider things are what they are. Truth is true, Reality is real, thoughts are thoughts, and We are as We Are. Complications stem from trying to over-clarify what is simple to identify. What is Absolutely Known - never changes - that cannot be contained or described in words. What does not change is simple and only complicated by trying to make more or less of it - while IT IS all that Exists.

We are free to choose what we think. It is what we choose that largely impacts our experience. It is how we think about what is happening that determines our sense of well-being.
Thoughts defend what is not true or real since what is false has no basis beyond what is thought. Truth and reality, not being at risk, are not threatened by thought or anything else.
Thoughts are primary actions, or causes, that precede all interactions or inter-reactions. The distinction is identified by a fight or peaceful coexistence. Thoughts we don’t think we’re thinking seem to happen to us - and so reactions only defend positions impossible to maintain.
Reactive thoughts are obsessive thoughts thinking the longer they are maintained the greater the chance they’ll come true. True is already true, always present, always where we are, as we are, now.
Feelings are bodily effects largely reflecting how well or poorly we are thinking on behalf of our bodily experience. Feelings are aware of what we are doing and so we feel bad when we're entertaining bad thoughts. To notice feelings actually reflect thought is to have the added perspective of an accurate view.
TRUTH AND REALITY do not cause feelings since they are absolute just as thinking does not cause reality. If this were not true we would not be so keenly aware of what is wrong with our thinking even as we try to assign the problem we choose to create to the world, its people, God, or our circumstances.
Thoughts can be quickly stabilized by considering what they are, as they are now. Like truth is true, Reality is real, We are as We Are, thoughts are thoughts and as they are now - leaving little to argue with when thinking of things generally they are integrated and thought of inclusively. Complications stem from trying to over-clarify what is simple as though identifying what is Absolutely Known - and never changes - can ever be contained or described in more and more words.

We're beginning to openly discuss how to notice, confront and dissolve the interference obsessive thinking appears to create.
When thoughts are imagined to be true our seeming reality develops an easily recognizable pattern. Thus thoughts thinking of themselves appear to become who and what we are. Hearing and debating multiple represent various characters and personalities we create to go with the variety of thoughts marching around and around in our head.
Obsessive thoughts are reactive since they are defensive. Obsessive thoughts see and hear only what is thought to be said and seen not what is actually said or seen. This makes sense since we are bent on magically turning imagination into truth and reality. Thoughts serving thoughts imagine all that is happening is what is thought to be happening not what is actually happening. To think we are a self, or selves, born of thought is to bear and serve these thoughts like a slave, while mastering their creation and maintenance.
Recognizing reactive thoughts is as simple as noticing their disturbing effects. Common side-effects are inner conflict, worry, anxiety, or a sense of feeling disconnected and alone. Thinking our thoughts define us has us think we become these disturbing states of mind rather than concede they are simply manifestations of thought.
Disordered, delusional, thinking, which is central to all addictive tendencies, has us think we are the effect rather than the cause. Feelings accurately assess the effects of our thinking. To think we are the effects automatically turns our response backward to think escape is possible by getting over or feeling better about what we are maintaining that is worse. Dark effects are empty, devoid of the substance of light reality provides.
When we think the thoughts are real the effects seem real. Dream seem real too especially when they develop into night mares. Waking up from our day dream is no different. After and before all what is there to get over when what is wrong is a mirage, only thought to exist?
Seeing effects as mirror images of what we're causing aligns thoughts immediately - since we only imagined they were disjointed as we thought we were maligned. Problems dissipate or disappear once seen clearly. If there is nothing to oppose, resist or defend the imposition of our imposter “self” has no position or point to make so has nothing defend, fight for or maintain.
Our basis is truth and reality so effects are obvious accurate reflections of our thoughts even when we act oblivious to what we are thinking. Look no further than noticing the effects to better see how thought’s capacity is being expressed poorly or well. Well being is the nature of being - well

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each will always reflect the fluid nature of current events.
May’s Principle is Integrity. Integrity is integration. Since integration is inclusive we cannot be alone or apart - from anyone or anything. Obsessively thinking about our “self” is embarrassing when what we think of reality and truth can replace reality and truth. Keeping these thoughts to our “self” presumes we or they can be hidden even while undermining our bodily functions with the pressure of stress leading to a sense of dis-comfort and dis-ease. Integration asks we broaden our circle to include all that are and all that is by sharing our thoughts openly - including our insight and frustration with what can seem out of sight. Integrity is honest since it is inclusive. Acting honestly is learning to consider we all share a greater knowing awareness so any divisions perceived are simply thoughts acting as though they are so distinguished as to be distinct and apart. Thoughts aligned with what is happening are stable so decisions made accordingly are not made desperately.
Step Five says: “Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.”
Sharing openly, with God, another Human Being, and our-self admits that our “self-made-make-up” is our thoughts projected appearance, and the “exact nature of our wrongs" is imagining they are real and true. Enlarging our circle by discussing honestly what we think melts who and what we think we are as seeing others as intimately connected becomes obvious. The moral inventory preceding this step suggests our decisions were immoral which clarifies the exact nature of our wrongs was what we thought about God, truth, reality, life, people, and our-self. Our greater awareness is obvious once we no longer act oblivious. Ignoring what is happening uses ignorance to claim control over truth and reality. The unmanageability of insanity is evidence there is no control possible in delusion and insanity what's wrong is thinking there is something to control.
CONSIDER:ALL THERE IS TO KNOW IS PRESENT. EFFECTS ARE REVELATIONS OF CAUSE.
TO DISMISS WHAT IS FELT IGNORES WHAT IS KNOWN.
HONESTY DISPELS THE RUMOR WE GET BETTER KEEPING THINGS TO OUR “SELF”.
HONESTY AFFIRMS AND CONFIRMS REALITY AND TRUTH AS THE STABLE BASIS OF WHAT WE SHARE AND HAVE WITH ALL THAT IS AND ARE.
LIFE IS NOT AT RISK WHILE TAKING OURSELF SERIOUSLY SUGGESTS THE JOKE WE CALL OURSELF IS AT RISK - WHICH IS GIVING IT CREDIT FOR NOT EXISTING.
IT IS OUR PRESENT THOUGHT(S) THAT IMPACT US. THE PAST AND FUTURE ARE ONLY THOUGHT OF IN THE PRESENT.
EVERYTHING IS HAPPENING NOW. NOW WE HAVE EVERYTHING. THINKING OTHERWISE ONLY CREATES THE APPEARANCE OF WEIGHTY DEPRESSING THOUGHTS.
AWARENESS OF REALITY IS CONFIRMED BY INTERACTIONS WITH OTHERS WHO HAVE WHAT WE SHARE.
OBSESSIVE THOUGHTS CYCLE IS BROKEN WHILE THERE IS NOTHING TO FIX AS MADE OBVIOUS BY SPEAKING BEYOND THE LIMITS OF ANY THOUGHT.
DISPELLING THE RUMORS ALLOWS GROWTH SINCE THOUGHT MAKES LIMITS UP.
THERE IS NO GROWTH IN WHAT IS ABSOLUTE SINCE THERE IS NO MORE OR LESS OF WHAT DOES NOT CHANGE.

John and I have a long history. He wanted to focus on some of his questions and so we did. He also thought his questions might help others too. The opportunity to have his proactive focus is helpful as this discussion develops through interaction - that includes all others. We will probably continue as his questions were ordered a pad many pages long.
It is not my words that define who we are but the knowing awareness we share. Noticing your experience and that there may be more going on than you think is to start seeing any thought's limits as a beginning rather than the means of an end. There is no defense, so no fight, in letting things be as they are since they are as they are even when we create mental debates over how they are or what we think they should be. Lies exist only appear to exist in thoughts imagining what is false can ever be true.
Consider that all thoughts are considerations and to think of them as true is to think of thought as the creator of reality. If our most fundamental thinking is not only wrong but thought to be right and thus real and true, the impossibility of this would naturally contaminate all of our thoughts.
We each have an impact, we each change things, and we each make a difference.
It is what we each do with what we experience that determines how we act socially. How things are is how we want them since things are always as they are now. Social ills or well-being can be used to distinguish healthy or unhealthy thoughts.
If we can make things worse, we can get better - especially since we know we know, we know more than we think - we know.

May's principle is Integrity; which is integration since what is Absolute is the seamless nature of all that is and all that are: all that exists.
Principles are indivisible, inviolable, indiscriminate, and equitable since they reflect the operating basis for functional capacity, of humans and all things. We share these since there are no distinctions in them, there is nothing we can think of them that can diminish our actual state of existence while our thoughts, especially when they are conflicted are reflective of any incapacity, dysfunction, and suffering we experience.

Both of these generous men have first-hand experience with violence and talk about the impact of their experience that had it seem to become second nature. They are both close friends and appreciating their frankness is easy since the vulnerable aspects of childhood and trauma are often thought to be hidden.
Violence is brewed internally with thoughts that are conflicted. There is no greater self-abuse than what we create in our own experience since our pain and pleasure centers occur immediately where our thoughts are generated or degenerated. Thinking that thinking of itself creates the self of who we are is not true thus a major conflict that cannot be overcome by more thinking. Proving who we are is unnecessary when we concede who we are is not limited by what we think.
There are no stories that are told that are true. They all have the potential for morals while they are often used to excuse what we do. To act irresponsibly for what we are doing is not moral or virtuous. Reality and Truth are not based on what we think so what we think of them does not change them - as the impact is only on what we think, we think.
What is simple is simple. What is absolute does not change. To ignore what is always present in favor of what is only imagined to exist is to chronically create complications that are not true. Mentally obsessive thinking is a mental problem. Thinking about things that don't exist as all that exists is delusional and insane.

Having the right to think does not make what we think right.
Thinking thoughts are true is to think all that exists is only what we think. To think thoughts create reality is to imagine all we are is what we think. Imposter syndrome reflects the imposition of these thoughts posing as our “self”. The natural consequence of this mistaken identity is to feel we don’t belong where we are so must constantly seek where we should be. Feeling disconnected and lonely is typical along with always wanting to feel better. This someplace, somewhere else we long for is imagined to contain things we think will fulfill us while never quite finding enough so continue to look elsewhere. These conditions are not imposed on us but created by us.
Truth and Reality are simple since they do not change. Since nature is a reflection of reality and truth our essence is essential, not optional or negotiable. Expressing the radiant brilliance of our enlightened nature is present and where we are now. We know we know and are aware we are aware. We can think otherwise which reveals it is what we incorrectly believe that creates mis-takes and mis-givings.
All voluntary and compulsive behaviors start with a thought. While it is only a wrong thought, thought to be right, that causes reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors they are freely chosen even as we feel condemned to repeat them. Effects are immediately preceded by a cause. Problems understood are not problems and only persist when we think of them inaccurately. A lie as a lie is no longer a lie. Aligning with what is actually happening allows choices based on peace rather than the disturbance of maligned thoughts in conflict with them-selves.
We always choose, right or wrong, freely despite what we think. Consequences affect our experience immediately. Circumstance offers perspective. To deny either only distracts attention from the perfect perspective created to see our mistaken ideas clearly.
What is absolute is indivisible, present, available, in reach and in touch, and always revealed wholly no matter our effort to pretend otherwise. Understanding is how we see invisibility. To understand our absolute nature is to dissipate conflict only found in thought. "Fools ( foolish thoughts ) rush in where Angels fear to tread." Angels know better than to create fear by imagining they are the creators of - rather than expressions of - reality. To think of insanity as our only possibility is to feel dispossessed while possessed and condemned by a force acting against us, while we create this impression to excuse our involvement. How thin the seemingly thick impenetrable veil once our insistence to get over what we create is over.
Thinking about thinking itself does not create us it creates more thought. To talk or think to our self is to talk and think of our thinking. To think of something we have as something we “have” to do twists what we have freely into something we think we are condemned to do.
Our discussion is an awakened contemplative mediation to apply what we know even as we may not think so. Discussing things openly has emptiness become full of emptiness rather than a vacuum we obsessively try to fill. Openly discussing what is happening as it is happening is an exercise to better express our natural stability and abilities. Nature is easy. Fighting it is hard since the only seeming gain is complication and pain. Pain is evidence something is wrong, not reality.
Insanity is not sane.
Let's talk about it.

MOD episodes inclusively overlap as they have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each will always reflect the fluid nature of current events.It is not what is said or what is happening, but what we think of it that has the greatest impact on our experience. If it is not what we hear or what is happening that we experience then we don’t hear or see what is actually happening but what we think. When we think what we think is true we think all that exists is only what we think. The immediate result is to imagine we are only what we think and immediately start to imagine we don’t fit or belong where we are so set off on a quest, of questions, born in doubt, to wrestle with what conveniently appears to be a mystery.
To operate on the basis of a lie is to search endlessly to find fulfillment which is evidence we are aware of the emptiness of our creation. Thinking about thinking, thinks up more thoughts and does not create a self, or any absolute nature based on being, essence, awareness, or knowledge. Thoughts are not who or what we are but to imagination are we capable of believing they are.
Obsessive thoughts attempt to prove they are right. If they were there would be no proof or fight since they would function every time they are applied. Truth does not require agreement, belief, faith or hope to be true. Truth and Reality are simple since they do not change, as IT IS always as IT IS.
Our discussion is an awakened mediation to apply what we know even as we may not think so. Starting with any lack of faith, any greatness of doubt or sense of hopelessness, if it is accurate, is aligned to what is happening, in thought. When wrong is wrong it is right since there is no fight to avoid its weight or worth even if it has no substance or value. Openly discussing what is happening as it is happening is an exercise we can always use to better express our natural stability and abilities. Nature is easy. Fighting it is hard since there is nothing to gain but pain and using pain as proof of life is a very twisted idea that has not worked yet and history is our written record of righteous indignation, that has never yet been right enough yet to keep us from killing each other in the name of what is right - when it is only a thought we are defending. Thoughts are thoughts. They are easier to have when thought of as they are rather than the internal conflict of thinking of them as they are not. Reality and Truth do not rely on, nor are they ever limited in any way, by what we think of them. Nothing imagined can attack us. Nightmares like daydreams only appear real until we wake up.
Foolish thoughts rush in where Angels fear to tread. Angels know better than to create fear by imagining they are the creators of reality. To think of insanity as our only possibility is to feel possessed and condemned by a force acting against us, while we create the impression to excuse our involvement. How thin the veil that can seem so thick, dense, and impenetrable when it is our insistence to not think other-wise causing the impression.

MOD episodes inclusively overlap as they have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each will always reflect the fluid nature of current events.Our discussion is not about agreement, faith, or belief. It is the chance to sincerely consider what is said - and see by even considering any effects that occur including reactions - or shifts in awareness. Consideration is a present contemplation as it is an awakened meditation. Our observational capabilities are never restricted when we preoccupy our attention with obsessive thoughts. Obsession is a clever way of making us believe there is nothing else we can do which is a fundamental thought of addiction. Choice always allows the freedom to not choose. If we did not know this we would not claim we have no other choice, since we would not use choice as our excuse, we'd simply be busy doing the only thing we think is the only thing possible.
Watch your experience, and your thoughts, and notice reactions are always defending something. Our primary weakness are thoughts that are not true and are effectively indefensible even while relying on chronic thought to maintain the impression they will be, someday. Reality and truth have no defense as what is Absolute is not at risk. Once we think we own our truth we think our thoughts are captive and thus we are captivated by what we think is true and real immediately supposing the so-called life of thought's image, ego, can be saved by fighting for what we think. In fact, like any lie, it is the opposite of what is actually happening. What is caused is not reality and truth but anxiety and stress that can feel real when our thoughts are thought of as real and true. Whenever we think our thoughts are reality whatever effects are created are imagined to confirm reality. Pain is evidence of something wrong, not proof of reality where there is no pain. This line of irrational thinking naturally undermines our functional capacity. Thinking of things that are not real as real is to think of illusions, the imagery of thought, as reality, while it is in fact the insanity of delusion.
Nothing said is of any value unless what is said applies to us all. Applying reality never requires much additional thought since it produces noticeable, useable results and can always be reapplied, by all. As accurate as words can be there are no words that can or will break the "self-will" that thinks it is saved by denying truth. Yet if you know what is said while thinking you don't you will naturally feel conflict, defensiveness, and defiance as your only choice - while thinking these effects are happening to you and not being caused by you. It seems easy to follow what you think by choosing more chronic thoughts after years of relying on thought as your only source. Most and maybe all of the greatest trauma and difficulties we face and think are out of our control are the direct descendants of the self we think we gave birth to in thought, thinking of it-self. Denial is the anesthesia of insanity giving the impression we have nothing to do with what is happening. This is an argument in favor of not existing. Is it hard to wonder where self-centered fear comes from when pretending we don't even exist is the basis of our attempt to turn what we think into truth?

Response-ability is response-able. Accountability adds up - or something is wrong.
Re-action is an automatic defense thinking denial can create truth.
Our conversation is not mythological or magical since it is not hypothetical or impossible. It poses no miracles since nature, like healing, is natural. It uncovers no mystery since Reality and Truth cannot hide or be hidden as essence is essential, always accessible it is always in all ways available. Digging, stretching, and seeking a journey for what cannot be found is a commitment to feeling lost. There is no there or then nor any more or less where we are with all that is happening now. There is no other place but where we are now. It is where we and all that are and all that exists even as we vainly shake our heads back and forth trying to find our place - as though it is not here, now. Looking everywhere but where we are is traumatic since the conflict is impossible to resolve as long as we think the incorrect thought causing it is true. We can think all we want and it will not change our present state of knowing awareness while the destabilizing impact on our experience feels like we don’t belong, like we’re out of control, need more or less of things that seem out of reach and we will only be free once we get there or then, with or without them, with more or less of something else which is where we can never be.
There are no demands in our conversation. No must-do, have to, supposed to, should’ve done, or should do’s. What happens is happening whether it should, is supposed to be or we wish it was or isn’t. These chosen positions only impact what we think and all our interactions and inter-reactions. We have free will so what we think must, should, shouldn’t or we wish would or wouldn’t be only impacts what we think, what we think of our-selves, what we think of others, what we think is happening, and what we think our plight may or will eventually be. None of this internal dialogue is happening anywhere other than where it is fostered and maintained in our brains. Thought has no life of its own. It cannot act for or against us, intrude on, or attack us. Thinking is at our disposal, like our bodies, they head where we aim them, acting as agents on our behalf, not always whole, considerate, or functional.
Our survival depends on thinking correctly more often than not. When we are expressing obsessive thoughts we are bent on dysfunction, defensiveness, and scarcity.

It is a leap to consider delusion, lies or hallucinations have any power but to the creators them imagining them real. This scary, lonely, seeming blindness to reality is how looking into the absence of substance, like an abyss, which is pitch black, lacking any light, function, usefulness, or value appears. In fact it is only an empty thought thinking that another empty thought can be true - that has us think we are blind to reality.
Nature does not argue or have any internal conflict over what it does since it knows and does not think. The nature of nature is peace. Nature is our nature. When we act out of order, and thinking is a primary action, we induce and impose pressure, stress and anxiety on our bodily experience since we are opposed to what is happening while it is happening. To think any subsequent thought consequential to these disorders will be put in order by maintaining them is not sane. To act on the disturbance ion inner conflict and emotional turmoil is to foster them both. Until we concede thinking is central to the impact we are experiencing these disturbing conditions will appear to be happening to us while we stare at the emptiness of our own chosen delusional thoughts that we imagine are reality. How well can we function while chronically focused on what is not happening in the name of thinking it is all that is happening?
There is no sanity in delusions and no delusion in reality. Emotional sobriety is living sanely as not drinking or using drugs is sane for an alcoholic or drug addict. This applies to all compulsive behaviors since entertaining ideas that are not true, as true is the precursor that reactive, impulsive and compulsive behaviors are trying to escape, even thought it is a delusion, like any nightmare. Dissolving problems is easy. Trying to redo what we’ve done to get over them, push past them, feel better about them, or be in opposition to feeling what we’re feeling only creates an immediate or builds toward an eventual implosion.
Honesty is not waiting for the right thing to say. It is expressing what is being thought, as it is being thought, right or wrong. To avoid having things as they are is to feel so mired and hopeless that we think it is impossible, while the impossibility is in the immediacy of thinking not having something suggests we have nothing to do with what we are experiencing. Honestly is not brutal while it reveals the brutality we create in the condemnation that naturally results from making believe humanity is the creator of reality and truth while it is the product of both. The small inner voice, is not a voice, but a sense of knowing so long denied we think we can’t hear, what we know.
Our discussion is an awakened mediation to apply what we know even as we think we don’t. Openly discussing what is happening as it is happening is an exercise we can always use to better express our natural abilities with all that is and all that are.

Courage is natural when not discouraged. Trying to turn a wrong thought into one that is right is discouraging. This attempt stems from thinking incorrect thoughts
are true, and thus reality depends on thinking. In fact thinking depends on reality.
Addiction is the attempt to reverse the natural order of things by claiming what is wrong can be right.
Response-ability is the ability to respond, rather than react. It is contemplactive and considerate rather than an automated, repetitious, re-action or defense.
Accountability is reckoning with how things actually Are, since it accounts for how things add up and are balanced.

**MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each will always reflect the moving fluid nature of current events.
C**onsequences are symptoms and immediate effects of a cause. Every effect we experience is our body’s language feeling a cause. What we think about what is happening is the primary cause of our feelings.
Observation is our present awareness and has no opinion about what is happening. Mental health is thinking accurately about what is happening, as it is happening - now. What we think is what we do with what is happening. To think we don’t like, want, or think what is happening should be happening puts us at odds with what is happening unless we concede it is what we are thinking that we are at odds with.
Thinking is never at odds with reality only itself and the self it is at odds with is who we wrongly think we become. This simple twist in thought creates an impression that everything and everyone may be or is against us.
When thoughts are thought of as reality and truth they seem permanent and intractable. Saying we are stuck in our thoughts or that they are intrusive and have the independent capacity to attack us is common. This is simply an overt attempt to claim we are irresponsible in what we are choosing. This impossibility has life, the world and all its people appear difficult and hard so we can think the false claim is cemented in reality. Delusion cannot be stuck while it can be imagined to be within the confines of sick thoughts.
It is only once we think are thoughts are true do we think we become the creators of reality amd so thoughts seem stuck while it is our chronic attention that seems sticky.
There is no disharmony, discord or instability in our Absolute State of Being Awareness. It is what we incorrectly think about our nature that is defective and primary to the disharmony and disturbances we suffer.
We Are as We Are.

This episode looks at childhood trauma, violence, racism, inequity, suppression, and oppression as an insane reaction to the internal struggle with obsessive thoughts trying desperately to turn our thoughts into reality and truth as we think we become only what we think.
David and John have a history of fighting and though their backgrounds are diverse their stories are very similar. We are looking for the morals in the stories rather than refining them as excuses to justify all that we have become, can be, or are.
David and John have been featured in prior episodes. Their history and insight are also further described in their respective episode descriptions.
We are going to continue these discussions so we can speak more openly about what is happening now and see if exploring the vastness of the present doesn't lead to an awareness that would otherwise seem unimaginable.

THIRD STEP: Faith, Surrender.
DECISION to act on principles: surrender of fight reveals peace. Faith in what is faith-full reveals what is full of greatness is our great-fullness.
Decisions are based on desires that come with expectations. When we desire something faithful and trustworthy acting on it is full-filling. Just as having trust in what is not trustworthy feels empty. The application of desire determines whether it is functional or dysfunctional - whether we feel fulfilled or empty - whether it aligns with reality or is a misaligned fantasy.
Decisions are useless if they aren't applied. Willingness without action is fantasy.
THIRD TRADITION: Eligibility, Identity.
Aligning thoughts with what is wrong allows doing something about what is wrong.
Freedom from compulsive symptoms starts with admitting we have a problem.
Reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors are triggered by the defensive nature of obsessive thoughts busy trying to turn what is not true into truth.
Emotional sobriety is not conflicted. Insanity is delusion by thinking what we imagine is true. Truth need not be thought of to be. If sanity reflects or aligns with reality, truth, or any absolute nature - then sanity is our nature. Any struggle with imagination devolves from imagining what we imagine is true and thus real. As makers of reality we think we are the creators of reality even as we call it our own - as though reality can be distinct, divisible, and apart from all others. Opinions like thoughts and ego are only conflicted once we think they are true. Pain and Healing only occur in the present. What is broken can only be fixed in the present and what is fixed can only appear broken by what is done in the present.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each will always reflect the moving fluid nature of current events.Our inquisition continues and has been an open exploration of basic tenets often presented without rebuttal. It is clarifying to engage John's determination and is stimulating a greater awareness of this discussion's purpose and potential.
John Perretti is a prior pugilist, painter, and poet. He was a professor at the School of the Visual Arts in New York City, the co-creator of Extreme Fighting, and coined the term “Mixed Martial Arts.” He founded the gym Madison Avenue Muscle. He also holds multiple world records for Free Dive Spearfishing and a would-have-been world record for a black marlin that had a bite taken out of its stomach by a bull shark while John held tight. He continues to dedicate himself to the largely unexplored territory between the fine and the martial arts.
John is a very long-time friend with an even longer resume than anyone I've known or met. Our discussion continues to aim at the absolute nature of our existence and how our experience is constantly offering accurate awareness of what we are doing - no matter how much we protest or think we can fight.
Below is a link to John's autobiography: "The Origin of a Species" so filled with a mix of dramatic experiences as to be normally only found in great literature.

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - each will always reflect the moving fluid nature of current events.Knowing awareness is immediate since any thought’s limit can never exceed what is boundless. What becomes always changes so is not now what it was at the beginning of this sentence. That which is not bound in time is neither bound nor limited by space. Our thinking’s awareness is only what we think and its permanence is only the impermanent changing of its limits.
That we think is a given. What we think about is a choice. We are free to think whatever we like including what is wrong. It is only when we think what we have concluded is right, when it is wrong, that the insufferable experience of obsessive thinking is manifest. It is not an accident when we think wrongly about what we are thinking that seeming conclusions are inconclusive so our quest for questions goes on and on.
Certainty and assurance are not based on doubt. Our nature is natural and what is absolute does not wobble, shimmy, or shake. If our basis is unchanging then it is what we do with limited thoughts that are always changing that impacts our experience in favor or against our own best interest.
We know We Know - We Are Aware We Are Aware,
Decisions aligned with what is actually happening confirm the useful purpose of thoughts. To believe in what is not happening as all that is happening is to think that thinking about thinking creates reality and truth just as we immediately think we become only what we think. What is born of thought is borne by thought and affects every bodily system our brain controls. What is manifest in thought can feel real just as the imagery of a movie or dream can “capture" our imagination, emotions or reactions. What we create in thought cannot condemn us yet it seems to once we think what we imagine has a life of its own. Delusions are illusions thought to be real. Taking our-selves too seriously is imagining thought thinking of it-self as our-self. The seriousness of that mistaken identity has been devastating throughout human history clearly showing us something is wrong.
Thinking the problem is the effect of a symptom or feeling is how addictive tendencies are developed. Focusing on effects ignores causes. Fixating on thought to repair what it is intent on breaking is brokenness. The mental obsession is not a mystery. The nature of addiction is to think what we choose to think is not the cause of the problem. As a result trying to solve the effects, where enough is never enough, indicates addiction is thinking that the solution is the problem.
To think we need to stop what we’re doing while doing what we’re doing is to think what is happening is not happening simultaneously. Human functional capacity is crippled by turning the immediacy of all possibilities into the consuming nature of chronic conflict and instability in mental, emotional, and physical states. Obsessive thoughts are bent on trying to accomplish what cannot be done just as any lie only exists as long as thinking considers it will or even can come true.
Sobriety is sanity. Emotional sobriety is sane living. There is nothing sane about defending the life of a bundle of thoughts we think are real and true and thus all we are. Any problem with ego disappears once we concede it is imagined. Obsessively thinking our sup-posed self can be saved from the effect of lying is to perpetuate the lie that it exists. This self-centered-in-thought tries to hide it is based in fear, for the fear of being "found out” is constant, while angels; the metaphoric or actual spiritual nature of being, do not tread into fantasy as reality since reality has no scarcity as it is all that IS. The folly of thought makes fools of us all - when all we think we are is what we think.
Our discussion is not about stopping anything. Our thought-full focus is on what we are actually doing. There is no conflict in things as they are. The dissolution of triggering the fight of the addictive cycle frees us from imagined condemnation to see peace rather than disturbance in our actual nature. Consideration is response-ability while the disturbing nature of reactiveness fights for more conflict. To see things as they are despite what we think melts the compelling urge to restart what we only imagine we struggle to stop. And when or if for any seemingly compelling reason, we choose to restart the cycle - the impression it is all we can do will quickly fade. We always know better than to only think what is worse is our only choice.
Speaking openly and honestly is the chance to see that what we share in the present confirms our shared presence. If we share what is absolute, absolutely, then seeing wrong only varies in the incorrect ideas we maintain. Our functional capacity and any dysfunctional tendencies occur on the same basis. Talking openly allows this to be seen clearly. Thinking otherwise impacts only our experience of what we think since We Are of Reality and Truth that does not change no matter what we think.

John Perretti is a prior pugilist, painter, and poet. He was a professor at the School of the Visual Arts in New York City, the co-creator of Extreme Fighting, and coined the term “Mixed Martial Arts.” He founded the gym Madison Avenue Muscle. He also holds multiple world records for Free Dive Spearfishing and a would-have-been world record for a black marlin that had a bite taken out of its stomach by a bull shark while John held tight. He continues to dedicate himself to the largely unexplored territory between the fine and the martial arts.
John is a very long-time friend with an even longer resume than anyone I've known or met. Our discussion continues to aim at the absolute nature of our existence and how our experience is constantly offering accurate awareness of what we are doing - no matter how much we protest or think we can fight.
Below is a link to John's autobiography: "The Origin of a Species" so filled with a mix of dramatic experiences as to be normally only found in great literature.

This joint effort again looks at the source of the problem and includes an answer to what is the solution. It is simple, but not always easy since we are capable of complicating what we think about what is happening. If we can think what is happening shouldn't be happening we think it is possible to control what is happening with thought. In fact, all that is ever happening is always happening so trying to intervene leads to mental and emotional instability.
Few greater complications exist than to think what we think creates any reality whatsoever. If Reality was in short supply it would not be real, nor would Truth be true if any space or distance could intercede.
John and David have lived through intense circumstances where violence was common. Their experiences hardened aspects of their thoughts yet both reveal an interest in coming to terms with the inner and outer conflict created by addictive thinking.
Anthony met John a few years back at a men's retreat where my focused discussion was the mental obsession as the core illness of addiction. Anthony calls regularly and today got the chance to discuss things openly in a smaller-than-usual group setting.

Sobriety is sanity. Emotional sobriety is sane living. Living as though we are only an image of thought - thought to be real and true - is insane. Trying chronically to feel better about any mistaken idea is exactly what addiction tries but fails to do. Addiction is a mental problem that leads to reactive, impulsive and compulsive behaviors. These are not accidents or curses but simultaneous consequences of how we choose to think.
Thinking about thinking confirms what is thought not reality or truth. Turning fantasy into reality has never happened for the very good and simple reason it can't and won’t. What we easily prove with this effort is that feeling empty, wanting and like an imposture are natural consequences. This line of thinking develops many imagined inner selves each with a raised voice demanding to be heard with nothing to say. Listen to the voices - in your head. Are they ever happy, supportive or generous when you feel like they’re happening to you? Much of what we say to our “self” we would never tolerate from anybody else.
There are few if any greater impacts on our experience than how we think about what is happening. What is actually happening cannot compete with the intensity of inner conflict created while focusing obsessively on what is not happening as though it is all that is happening.
Talking to ourselves is talking to our thoughts. Thinking to ourselves is thinking about our thoughts. Thinking we are created by our thoughts is to imagine thinking creates the reality of existence. Consciousness may be the source of existence but to think one brain is it’s source it a bit pompous. Thoughts are ideas, imagined, concepts. The twisted idea thought creates reality is terrifying “self-centered” fear since it means actual reality and truth do not exist and we are alone in the universe except for what we think. We would not feel this fear if this line of thinking was true so feeling fear is an indication we have a greater knowing awareness than we think - so we know better.
To think we can generate thought and oppose creates an impression that is naturally depressing the longer we continue. Imagine thinking what we think is all we are then competing with every thought to prove that what is wrong is right. Taking a self that is only a thought thinking of itself seriously is a joke imagining there is a self to be taken anywhere. Thinking we can conclude whatever we want and that makes it right, is only laughable once seen honesty. Denial may conveniently have us think we have nothing to do with what is happening but the inconvenient part is that this is an argument in favor of not existing. Addiction in all its behavioral forms are suicidal tendencies. Thinking’s purpose is to express our nature - not be used to turn it against us to threaten any life-form.
Mentally obsessive thinking is a dis-ease and mental illness because it is not easy or healthy to bear. Misdiagnosing any problem makes it worse as long as we repeatedly apply the same prescription. This is commonly referred to as malpractice. Addiction, overdoses, suicide, and mass homicidal rage are at record levels. Continuing to use the same ideas that allowed these conditions to reach their epic numbers is to repeat the same idea as though it will someday get better and become true. More insanity is a very unlikely cure for insanity.
Thanks for listening and trying on what you hear - and your response-ability.

“Perhaps the real problem was our almost total inability to point imagination toward the right objectives."
Bill Wilson points out that imagining, what is impossible as possible, and what is wrong as right, is a wrong objective. What is possible can be done while what is impossible can never happen. One is easy and the other as complicated as we try to make it work. Bill said the program is simple while not always easy. He knew how complicated things are when we think of them not as they are but only as we think they are.
Wrong always fails while right once recognized takes little thought since it works every time it is applied. Principles are absolute and not optional. Applying them is optional which means when things don’t work we’ve decided to think of things in unworkable, unprincipled ways. Learning undoes ideas that don't work by not repeating them, or paying sufficient attention to notice their disturbance sooner than later. Fighting for ideas that are wrong as right is to create impossibility - in thought - not Life.
Our discussion is a chance to notice that when we discuss openly what we think about privately it becomes easier to see our greater shared knowing awareness. Seeming to be buried alive in thoughts is not natural, healthy, or normal. Temporary relief is not a solution since false ideas have no track as it is only our one-track-obsessive focus that drive our inner conflict amd emotional turmoil. What is cunning, baffling, and seemingly powerful is imagining what is wrong will one day be right. No amount of belief, faith, confidence, hope, trust, or undivided obsessive attention can make this happen.
While an absolute source does not require or ask for faith, trust, hope, or belief to be as It Is when we align even the slightest faith and trust in what is actually faithful and trustworthy our alignment is confirmed with the wholeness of our ever-present presence - where We Are as We Are now.

David is a very close friend and neighbor who starting as a teenager was incarcerated for over twenty years. He talks openly about how he matured "in the box" where he learned about responsibility and accountability. Since his release, he has been active in gang intervention and worked in many of our local schools to help guide children at risk. He also offered some great insight into incarceration vs. the mental prison that melds neatly into our discussion about mental addiction. David’s insight into the mental rigors of incarceration are beautifully metaphoric for the prison mental addiction appears to cause.
We are planning to do two more episodes exploring how to turn the limits of thoughts and trauma into a valuable asset.

Emotional sobriety is sane living. There is nothing sane about thinking who we are is what we think. Trying constantly to feel better about thinking that is worse is silly. Yet taking what we think so seriously as to imagine it is who we are is no laughing matter. We can think all we want about what we think but we will never become something we do no matter how obsessively we focus our thoughts.
We are so free as to be able to create a sense of condemnation by thinking we’re not thinking what we’re thinking and so not doing what we’re doing. Looking like we’re not thinking what we’re thinking and doing what we’re doing is a cover-up that takes enormous effort and never works since like all lies, it’s a lie.
There is no good reason to use reason as an excuse to appear better than we feel - so it is only sick thoughts that have us try.
We are here to recognize that Well Being is better than trying to chronically feel better about what we’re thinking that’s worse. Feeling better doesn’t mean liking what we feel but getting better at feeling what we’re feeling. Aligned thoughts are not maligned nor do they cause any disturbance.
Freedom is our natural state of Mind. To have what we think as what we think does not create conflict or the seemingly sticky nature of obsessive thoughts. Internal conflict is a choice to see things not as they are but only as we think. What is falsely held as true dissipates and dissolves the contrary thought immediately when seen accurately. There is no friction or pressure on trith and truth is not what we think but what we all share with reality as the basis for existence and life.

QUOTE: This week from John P:
“Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world.”
Arthur Schopenhauer, philosopher
1788 - 1860
Mental Obsession Monologue.
If the premise of our use of thought has been problematic throughout human history it is well worth considering the root of that problem. This is not to suggest what is said here does that - while the chance to reinforce the value of our experiences is the chance to recognize what we share in common and thus know .
This segment broadly makes several points:
- It is up to each of us to do what we do with what we think and thus what we hear. Honesty exposes lies since the clarity of their defensive nature becomes obvious. Defensive tendencies protect insecure thoughts since we know they are at risk.
- If what is said was a telling to you or about you the suggestion you don't already know would be mistaken. If there is an All-Knowing State of Conscious Awareness - we are aware of it and know it. Talking about it helps confirm our common awareness.
- Understanding is not required to know what we know. Yet when we use thought as our only source of presumed knowing we are misunderstanding our source.
- Knowledge feels right even when we struggle to understand it. This phenomenon clarifies our knowing awareness as it does thinking's constant struggle to know. Not understanding is caused by thought, not reality. This is why we can feel something is right as quickly as we can sense something is wrong - even when we don’t understand what “it” is. We need not understand a cause to appreciate its effect.
- Effects, like feelings, reactions, impulses, and compulsions are observable reflections of what we think. When a reflection is disturbed it is a disturbed cause that is reflected.
- We are Present as are all things happening. Thinking is something we do; an action we choose to take in relation to what is happening. If we have a problem it is what is occurring now, as we are thinking now, that determines whether the problem grows when we deny what is happening or vanishes as we see it as it is happening.
- There is nothing that is not connected to here now so there is no amount of anything else anywhere else with anyone else that can make now more or less than everything presently. This is why enough is never enough, as there is nothing out there - at some other time that isn't imagined - since it, whatever it is, always here now.
- Forgiveness is Present as all that is, is as it is, now. Forgiveness is release once we stop condeming ourselves to thinking of things as they are not.
- Our brain is the pain and pleasure center of our body. Our thoughts emulate from there. There is nothing that can cause a greater impact on our experience than what we think about. Mental anguish from obsessive thoughts is immediate since the cause and effect are immediately registered in our brains.
- Consideration is an awakened ever-present state of meditative awareness. Consideration has no bounds or it would be inconsiderate.
- Imagine what, why, where, when and how cause doubt since they are questions. To ask questions about things that are assured is questionable.
- Imagine THAT things are as they are is assured - so it is not things that cause doubt. No doubt!
We are all involved with each other. If we participate accordingly great insight is sure to result.
If you have any thoughts, criticisms or questions it would be helpful in the development of our conversation to hear what you think. Your guidance is ours and hearing your perspective can help us address the common nature we share more clearly.
So far our audience has been all word of mouth. Applying what is heard is how seeing it work happens. We would love to hear about your experience.
As willing

Beings Are, Humans do. Beings know, humans think. Our brain's mission is to serve our body so we can be of maximum productive and constructive use to all that are and all that is. Thoughts are designed to express reality and truth not wait till they understand it to proceed.
We diminish our human capacity to appear limited in the vain hope we can prove limited thoughts are true thus all that is possible. We choose what we think, freely. As a result, we want what we choose. Thinking things shouldn’t be as they are is to think they are not as they are. This internal effort causes major internal conflicts. Addiction is a mental health disease.
Addiction promotes the thought there is no other choice but to do the thing that is killing us. A self-induced by thought has no basis in reality and cannot be killed so killing our body with compulsive acts will not solve the problem.
Thinking about thinking causes a reflection, an image. Thoughts are imagined. To think they are true has us imagine a reflection of thought is all we are while denying the lie that is reflected. If thoughts are not true then any reflection would be a lie thus ego is born of thought, not reality or truth. Ego, like any thought or lie only appears as a problem when we think they are or can be true. To see that thought only reflects itself quickly makes thinking this is all we could be easy to see by noticing we could not be watching thoughts if we were them any more than our eyes can ever directly see our eyes. This conflict is obvious whenever we're willing to look honestly at our experience.
Dreams or nightmares appear real yet fade as quickly as we awake since they are never any more than imagined in the present. The seeming past is no different once we awake from the daydream of thinking who we are is only what we think. The past is only what we think of it in the present. It is what we think now that primarily impacts our experience since thoughts occur in immediate proximity to the brain that registers pleasure and pain. Nobody can ever get closer to our experience than what we think, we think.
Mental recovery is not repeating a new behavior but seeing that what is not true dissipates, and dis-solves as quickly as it is seen honestly rather than what we fight to think of it as. Mental recovery is undoing not redoing what we've been addicted to repeatedly hoping will become true.
Insanity is seeing and hearing things that do not exist. When we think the self we talk to and think of and up is true we get serious about what is actually a joke.
Taking insanity seriously qualifies the insane. Anyone suffering with insanity who recognizes it is sane.
Emotional sobriety is sane living.

Thinking about thinking is not a problem. Thinking about itself - thinking thinks up a self-centered only in thought. This self has no basis in reality or truth. To think our thoughts are the creators of reality has us think all we are is only what we think. This would not cause problems if it were true. This self-of-thought relies on the defense of obsessive thinking to appear real. Self-centered fear admits we know to be afraid of what we are thinking as it is cause for concern. This induced state of trauma is rooted in thinking fantasies or lies can be true. This line of irrational reason will always produce the same depressing result. If we did not know better - that our awareness was greater than the problem induced - we'd never notice anything wrong. Refusing this awareness guarantees an increasingly problematic reckoning.
Things are as they are as we are as we are. Imbuing simplicity with any attempt at greater meaning complicated things.
Grace is the generous gift and relief circumstances and consequences provide by offering an immediate reflection to any cause. We know when something is wrong. This synchronous exchange with nature is evidence of the divine order of nature's laws that do not change even while thinking wrong thoughts can come true.
Choosing to see opposites only as extremes misses their common ground in between. Fighting for a point as though it is the only point is futile since any point confirms rather than negates opposing viewpoints. When positivity is all we think we want we fight negativity, confirming it, since it cannot be eliminated it is revealed. Neutrality is the natural balance between extremes and is never conflicted until we fight for a point against all other points.
When all things change all things changing remain the same. This is another indicator the absolute is not conflicted. This is not to suggest we can’t or shouldn’t think of parts but when we think of them as distinct from the whole the created is easy to deny based on the undenied belief in what we think.
Neutrality is the awareness that choices always allow us not to choose. Freedom never condemns so Life cannot condemn us to death. This is central to recovery from mentally obsessive thinking. Our life form may fade but the absolute nature of Light, Life, and Love cannot like a flame go out as it is ever-present, IT IS our source.
The above does not reference an “after-life” but our ever present awareness of Life, now. The idea we need to die or be near-death before we witness life’s awe is only a thought that is wrong.
Our conversation is not about only doing right, only thinking positive thoughts, and only looking and feeling good. Our conversation is about noticing THAT we are thinking what we’re thinking.
Accuracy dispels rumors and eliminates trying to fix what we think should or should not be happening while it is happening. All that is happening is all that is ever happening and there is no conflict nor need to think of things as they are, since they are, as they are - deep breath, relief.
Emotional Sobriety is sane living. Lying about our nature condemns experience at the most primal level. To think getting over damnation is crucial misses the actual cause. This is how effects or symptoms are chronically perpetuated. Lies have no impact on reality or truth only on how and what we think, feel and do.
We struggle with thinking incorrectly about what is happening not Life, Love, or Reality or Truth.
Thanks for acting on what you hear. Here, here.
Our third conversation focuses on Moein's multi-year exploration between stimulus and non-stimulus - and his resulting insight.
After we spoke Moein introduced his thoughts on how Rumi got his start and we may do a fourth episode to explore that aspect of Persian history since it is a poetic record of the infinite nature of existence.

Things are as they are. That means thoughts are thoughts, truth is true, reality is reality and fantasy is fantasy like imagination is imagination. Thoughts are imagined conclusions largely based on limited information. To think what is imagined is reality is delusional, which is insane. This primary disturbance causes instability so subsequent thoughts are unstable. To think we are creators of reality is to think we become only what we think. Feeling bad is to think we are bad, feeling wrong, we are wrong. It is easy to think bad and wrong thoughts but once we think they are true we think we become bad and wrong. This is, like thoughts being true and real, a lie.
The difference between what is natural and unnatural is that one is easy and the other is not only hard it is impossible to apply. If we have been thinking all we are is what we think we have been trying to manage what we think about ourselves when the self we are thinking about is only what we think.
Control and unmanageability of something that is imagined only seem out of control when it is the mistaken thoughts we're having about them that have no substance so nothing to control.
Self-help attempts to help a self that is imagined which is why the self-help industry is now a $10 billion dollar annual venture. Why are we always seeking new ways to feel better about what we're insisting on doing that is wrong? Mental obsession is an addiction to thought, a dis-ease in the sense that it causes a lack of ease and stress that undermines all of our bodily systems and so our health.
Our essence is essential so it is not in question. There is nothing to seek. What we’ve been looking for are ways to feel better about the distressing impact our thinking about who we are is having on our experience. To start considering who we are is not who we think we are by seeing our thoughts as they are, imagined ideas are to relieve thoughts of trying to do what is impossible by freeing them to do anything and everything possible. Thoughts are designed to express reality and truth like a river naturally guides the flow of water.
We are where we are now. There is no other place we can be. All that is happening is happening now and we are intimately woven into it all. As we are we are with all that is, as it is now. This is not optional. Thinking never prevents anything that is happening from happening while the thinking we think is true thinks its own preoccupation is a block. Self-serving thought always serves the self-born of thought, thinking only of itself.
Things are not as they seem since things are always as they are.
MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Since our focus is principled and always happening now - they will always in all ways reflect the moving nature of current events.The hardest place to find is where we are when we don’t think we’re there. To look through the lens of this thought will have us feel lost everywhere we go.
There is no loss in what cannot be found as there is nothing to find in what cannot be lost. Truth and Reality are not optional or negotiable. They are the essence of existence and so essential. We cannot be apart from what we are inherently a part of. We can think we are or can be so suffering a sense of loss is automatic. Like looking into a mirror it immediately appears to be looking back on us, while it has no eyes to see but ours. Feelings are reflections of thought offering perspective. Like heads and tails on a coin cannot be seen simultaneously it does not mean the other side disappear.
If being in the present with all that is and all that are isn't enough how would or could anything else ever be enough? When enough is never enough it's a good indication that thinking the impossibility of being somewhere else with someone or something else is possible, now. What is impossible is impossible. The world does not become impossible or unfair when we unfairly think that impossibility is possible. What a great leap to imagine denying an idea that has no basis could cause the entire world and its people to become impossibly unfair. From a thought with no basis to all that are and all that is in a flash. How quickly a single baseless thought can turn our back on everything and everyone and wonder why being taken seriously takes so much work. The joke is not on us. The joke is who we think we are.
We are always in the present. What happens only happens in the present including what we think. The present is a state of being or knowing and it is our nature. The present is not a place. We can’t get there since there is no there, there or here. Here is where thinking creates our human experience. Now is our knowing awareness. Now is based in the presence of knowing. Here is based in thought. Here and now are the intimate convergence of our indivisible state of being. Beings are and humans do. Knowing is what beings know and thinking is what humans do. Knowing doesn’t think since it has nothing to think about and thinking doesn’t know since Knowing is not in parts and pieces. We are the operators of our bodily functions. When we ask our thoughts to do what they cannot do we dysfunction naturally. As we recognize our thoughts are at our disposal we choose to do what we want with them. We are as free to wait endlessly before we finally settle on what we think we know while it always changes as we insist in perfecting it at a time and place that never comes. Thoughts are designed to express what we actually know since we know we know. There is no place to get to, have or see if we are always present, now. To Be is to see any imagined alternative is not to be.
To look for your true self is to admit looking with false eyes. Even the best of luck can’t find truth looking through false eyes searching for truth. To look for what cannot be found is t be lost in thought while thinking truth can be lost.
Listen, consider and notice - you have and always have had the choice to see things as you choose to see things. There is nothing you will hear that you can't deny. And that is not to suggest everything you hear will be right. If you're willing to look you will see - and if you are unwilling you will only see what you think you should see. Stop, look both ways and listen - like when we learned how to cross the street.&nb

TOPICS**Our fund-a-mental human well-being is a byproduct of an Absolute Source: We Know We Know We Are Aware We Are Aware. Our Knowing Awareness is not created by thought. Thinking, like our body's dependence on utilizing oxygen and water, is a byproduct of Truth and Reality expressing both while creating neither.
We need not agree, believe, trust, or have faith in anything for it to be as it is. When defending doubt is set aside and mathematical principles are applied solutions are no longer problems. This is no different from thought since principles are uniform throughout our universe.
When thought is thought to be real or true we think we become the creators of reality and truth. To fight for this is to fight against everyone and everything else. To think a thought is our only source is to endlessly think about what we think of our "self" as truth and then focus largely on how we appear since we are on guard against any contrary thoughts -thinking more and more thinking about our imagined self will be enough while finding enough is never enough. This primary flaw has plagued humanity, pitting us against our own interests and all other interests for at least as long as our history has been recorded.
Unprincipled thoughts have no basis so cannot provide any useful benefits. Seeing something with no basis is to witness darkness - to see this clearly and use it to act blind is a lie.
Enabling often occurs with those whose primary addiction is thinking they are helping while people get worse. When industries grow for decades on the trillions spent on social ills that continue to get worse there is a lie in the ointment.
If we can make it worse - which is evident - we can get better. We cannot stop what we refuse to admit starting any more than we can let go of something we're not holding, or won't let go of something we deny having.
Our natural state is natural, naturally. Any lack of ease is dis-ease and an indication something is wrong. Our primary choice is how we think of things, not how things are
We know we know and can think we don't. Freedom allows us to think what is impossible is possible. If impossible were possible it wouldn't be impossible
Feeling less than, having low self-esteem, low self-worth or value are natural consequences that are grandiose to imagine there is any esteem or value in thoughtlessness. We are not who we think we are but as we are regardless of what we think
To hope for what is hopeless, have faith in what is faithless, and trust in what is untrustworthy is to hope, have faith, and trust that fantasy will one long impossible day from now be reality. There is no then or there now.
The Present is always Present here, now - where we always are, and trading this certainly for doubt is a choice. The Present is the culmination of all that has happened and any seeming trace of the past is in the present where we always are is simultaneous to all that is happening.
Peace is Grace allowing the immediate awareness of conflicted variations as an accurate guidance system. Fighting this guidance does not reduce Grace but confirms the loving nature of reality and truth offering unlimited freedom to do what we will. Suffering is an indication something is wrong. Denial is an attempt to go numb to this guidance.
We are in perfect order creating disorder and a growing list of disorders to prove we're in charge. If misery loves company why do we loathe the self we think we are? To think all we are is what we think is a frightening proposition - since we know better.

- Cause causes effects. The two are immediate and inseparable.
- Choice is a prayer for the effect received
- Prayers are always answered
- Focusing obsessively on effects ignores cause.
- Ignoring is ignorance
- We think absolutely even when we think nobody will ever work together and that life is impossible
- Thoughts need not be right to be expressed honestly
- How we choose to think impacts all that are and all that is
- To think everybody will never agree is to make sure they don't
- An Absolute Source need not be agreed with, accepted, believed in, have faith in, or hoped for to be as IT IS. This also applies to all that is happening as it is happening regardless of what we think
- We cannot be apart from what we are part of
- We are as we are, we know we know and are aware we are aware
- We are in the Present - always in all ways
OUR FOCUS
Thoughts are not real or true they are imagined.
It is delusional to think thoughts are real and true. To treat delusions is to act as though there is something to treat. We can think there is something to treat but this again puts wrong thinking at the center of the problem and when we do reveals thinking is the source of the problem - not reality, truth, life, or this, that, them, or then.
To think thoughts are real, true or both is to think all that should, will, or is all that is welcome to happen is only what we thought would happen.
Expectations based only on what we think should happen indicate we think our thoughts are true.
All that ever happens is what happens no matter what we think.
Fractured states of thought can be traced to primary mistaken notions.
Mental disorders are thoughts acting on thoughts out of order.
Truth and Reality are not optional, negotiable, or attainable.
Truth and Reality are the nature of existence regardless of how we think of them.
To think a thought with no substance can be fixed is to think the thought has substance.
Pain gives notice something is wrong.
Inner conflict, mental anguish, and emotional turmoil reflect thoughts in conflict, anguish knowing something is wrong and emotions fired up thinking wrong is right.
Right need not be thought of any longer than it is utilized since it is immediately applicable. What is applicable will apply to all, so is supportive of all, and barely need to be thought of as reapplied since we know it will work.
One form of thought is a drag, the other light speed as they reveal the dark absence of any substance or the illumination of life's light.
Wrong thoughts as right need constant maintenance to appear real.
The self we think we are is not who or what we are but what we think.
Grandiosity, arrogance, and pride try to bring balance to an idea that has no basis to balance. Even thinking it can be balanced is offering undue credit leading to the bankruptcy of the idea.

Our conversation has developed to allow us not only to consider the impact thinking has on our own experience, but the consequential impact it has on others. Seeing things accurately provides freedom and stability for subsequent thoughts rather than desperation and fear. All seeds bear the fruit of their making.
To see clearly is to concede our intention is how things are, now. Choice allows us to think what we want and so our natural state of responsibility recognizes when we are irresponsible in our thinking or actions. Conceding this frees us to value what is wrong rather than perpetually fight to have it continue by denying what's wrong.
If we can make global problems we can more easily correct them. Denial is unnatural. Truth is fundamental to our existence. What is dealt with honestly can be fixed naturally. Fighting for what is unnatural takes forever and can't be achieved.
We are honest since our basis is Truth. There is no effort in feeling fulfilled when we're honest. When we act honestly we act in favor of everyone and everything. And our actions are naturally more fruitful as they are more loving and generous.
Our discussion is starting to peer into the expanse beyond the seeming limits of our thought.
We welcome your ears and participation.
Jack.

Now is where problems are made - and solved
Delusion means there is nothing actual or factual to let go of but the thought thinking there is now.
Where things happen is in the Present
Here and Now is a human state referencing time and place, in space
Outer space is everything beyond the limits of our thoughts(s)
Beings Are not things, but Present Awareness, not in space or time
What is not in space or time is what we have to express in space and time
Thoughts are not designed to lead but follow the leader
Our nature is to express Knowledge, what we know
Repressive thought is like a dam-gaining weight as it waits to express the energy stored. The dam fails to wait as nervous, mental, and emotional breakdowns occur.
Water, like thoughts, is designed, like water behind the dam to be channeled dlk
Using thoughts to determine what we know is to think thoughts are the source of what we know.
If reality begins in thought then it ends in thought too
What has an end is not Absolue
Absolute Present Awareness is always beginning so has no end
Forever is never since it is not here or now, always there or then
All that ever happens, happens in the Present, where We Are now
All that can be done happens in the Present
There is no there or then in what is Present-Knowing-Awareness
Essence is always where we are since We Are as It Is
Starting a problem is where ending it starts
Presence Is all that Is in the Present, which is All that Is, and all we have
If all that Is isn't enough it is not the lack in all that Is but what we think of what we see and how we think we see
The time between our discussions is what you have to discuss what we discuss.
Consider this:
Consideration is an awakened meditation.
We Are As We Are.
We Know We Know.
We Are Aware We Are Aware.
We Are.
We are not who we think we are.
Any self-born of thought, thinking of itself, is imagined.
Lies only appear to exist as long as they are thought to be true.
Perspective is the length we go to take our focus off a point.
The Present is immediate.
How we think of things is not how things are but how we think.
Distractions are attractions to other things.
What is happening happens even when we aren't thinking about what is happening.
Understanding is how we think we see what we see.
Life does not depend on what we think.
Thinking depends on Life.
Our body language tells us how we're doing with what we're thinking.
Thoughts are feelings are simultaneous.
Cause and Effect speak the same body language.
What we think has how we feel immediately turn to thought for words.
Understanding and Substance both refer to our footing, where we stand.
What is groundbreaking is witness to understanding that is broken. understanding.
Topics Explored:
We Know We Know and are Aware We Are Aware.
Expressing what We Know is thought's function.
What is simple is Absolute: Truth is True and Reality is Real.
Thinking is not complicated but can be used to complicate things.
Thinking reality and truth are what we think has us think we are the creators of both.
Mentally obsessive thoughts are thoughts thinking about themselves and thus thinking they are all that exist.
Thinking is an action, something we do, something we choose to utilize or mis-utilize.
Pressure is primarily created by resisting what we are doing, in thought, now.
The self these thoughts serve is centered only in thought afraid of the horizon or limits of thought. The center is always the furthest point from the horizon or edge.
What is based only on thought is imagined, not real or true, so has no basis.
To think what is imagined is real or true is to lie.
Since lies have no basis they are no more than we make of them, in our imagination, now
The immediacy of the moment is where all that is happening, happens.
The seeming past is in the present since the present reflects all that has happened as all that is happening. the future is only what we make of the present. A doomed future is supposing the past is all there is in the present.
Since the immediacy of the moment, the moment of the moment, is now - now is where all that we can do can be and is done. If there is anything not to do, to fix, to repair that is broken it is thinking it is not here, now.
Since all can happen is happening - it is where we are that all of our problems can be solved.
There are no solutions when there are no problems.
Looking accurately at what is happening creates no conflicts or complications.
Seeing wrong as wrong does not make what is wrong right, while how we see it as right.
Wrong as wrong is right: Positive X Positive = Positive; it counts = functional, useful.
Wrong as right is wrong: Same as immediately above.
Right as wrong is wrong: Positive X Negative = Negative; and only reduces what counts, so doesn't count = dysfunction, uselessness.
Negative numbers only exist in math, not nature or reality.
Nature adapts to nature immediately since it is its nature, it is never unnatural.
What is unnatural can take a lifetime to think is natural when it never was or is.
Life is not hard but the impossibility of thoughts trying to be true.
Maligned thoughts are in conflict with alignment. Aligned thoughts are not in conflict so can be applied and once cognized are immediately recognized since they need no longer be thought of to be applied.
Our functional literacy or well-being depends on how well our thinking reads our body language.
An indication that we know more than we think is to recognize that our body reports on the facts of our environment without opinion or bias - like any good reporter or journalist.
Talking about what we learn or admit we know confirms its usefulness - and ours.
Principles do not change when we think they are not principled.
Having things as they are is conceding how things always are.
We don't see our thoughts but we feel their effects. Our experience is the collective awareness of all that is happening and is largely impacted by how we think about what is happening.
Rely on this and see if your thought-life doesn't take a breath after holding it for so long.
Thanks for listening, and hearing.
It is up to each of us to express what we all know.

- Our will is expressed by choice and if we didn't want it we would not choose it.
- We can think we know what things are doing but we can be assured by knowing they are doing what they're doing, always in all ways.
- Free will, the freedom to choose freely, does not mean we will like what we choose.
- Condemnation is a function or byproduct of thoughts that are condemned.

- Consequence is nature's way of sharing how well we're choosing.
- Wrong seen as wrong is correct. Seeing wrong rightly does not make wrong right
- Lies tell lies so their promise is to lie.
- Lies have no basis other than to thought, in thought.
TOPICS:

- What is simple does not change, What is Absolute is simple
- Truth, Reality, and Life are not complicated because we think they are
- Our experience changes when how we think of things is how we think they are
- We impose on things when we think all we are is what we think
- Impositions thought to be true are depressing
- Denial is a blind act to what we are doing, like closing our eyes thinking there's nothing to see
- Similarly seeing any absence of light clearly is not blind but seeing nothing there clearly
- We choose denial it does not happen to us
- Noticing lies are moments of clarity
- Spiritual Principles are shared by all and are the basis of our experience
- What is possible is all that is happening
- Thought are illusions we turn into forms, like foggy notions
- Thinking only appears to turn on us once we think what we think is true do we think who we are and what we think defines "our" reality
- Truth and Reality are True and Real for all that are and all that is - there is no gap that leaves anyone or anything out of the wholeness of an Absolute State of Being
- The past and future, lying; ego: our self-seeming-self-centered only in thought are illusions
- Once illusions are imagined to be true do delusions seem real enough to contend with
- Self-serving thoughts serve a self-centered only in thought
- Obsessive thoughts consume our attention so we can pretend we are not creating them
- Social ills reflect the ill-nature of sick, obsessive thoughts masquerading as truth
- Illness is the natural consequence of unnatural thoughts, thought to be real and true
- Comparing and contrasting one of these to one of those is how things appear more or less, or imperfect, in relation to each other
- Things as they are, are perfect as is anything compared to itself
- Perfection is the natural state of existence since what is Absolute does not change
Consider the following:
Simple is not complicated
What does not change is simple
What changes can appear complicated
Complicated thoughts have things that are not complicated appear complicated
Thinking of things - incorrectly: as they are not - complicates things.
Nature is not complicated - Our universe is not complicated
What is Absolute does not change
No difference can be made in or of what does not change
Thought has no impact on what is Absolute
The opposite of the Absolute is Absolute
Our Present Awareness is Aware it is Present - this does not change
Complications and lies like ego only happen in thought.
Thoughts are imagined, images, intended reflections of projections
We see what we want to see - even when what we think we see doesn't exist
Illusions thought real are delusional
Thoughts imagined true and real appear to turn thinkers into the creators of Reality
Ego is what we think of our "self" - and this self only appears real once we think our thoughts are true, do we wrongly appear to become who and what we think are. - so the self we imagine is delusional, not real or true, based on "self" centered, "self" imposed fear since this self has no basis other than in thought
The greatest threat to ego is contrary thought
To think we can be apart from what we are a part of is to think incorrectly.
When the basis of our thoughts is wrong no subsequent thought based on it will be right, safe, or secure.
Feeling insecure and vulnerable is a clear indication we are aware of dysfunctional thoughts.
We are fully intact, intuitive; knowing Beings.
If there is any Absolute Presence it is impossible anyone or anything can be excluded
If we can act so wrong for so long we can say so long to wrong as quickly as we can insist on its resistant persistence

Trying to feel better about wrong thinking is the mental trap of addiction. This practice fosters anxiety and stress since chronic conflict cannot be re-solved no matter how many ways we try to outthink it or think running "head-on” into compulsions can escape “it’s-grasp”. What we insist on resisting will persist. Thinking we're not doing what we're doing creates a major inner conflict and emotional turmoil. Getting better at doing what is wrong is unhealthy, unnatural and dysfunctional.
We cannot let go of what is essential since it is our essence. And will not let go of what we think or claim we are not doing. The pressure caused by thinking what is happening is not happening, is depressing for good reason. Feeling guilt and shame are accurate consequences of this circular line of twisted reason.
Reality existed well before the first human thought and delusions don’t exist no matter how hard we think. The dis-solution of obsessive thoughts is like any problem. Once a problem is seen accurately there is no conflict to overcome or compulsive need to try to prove wrong is right.
Dis-solution is not re-solution and requires no re-solve to dis-solve problems at their core. The world, the universe, and life never become problems simply because we think of them inaccurately. The problem with problems is thinking what we think about them is right when we're wrong.
There is no stereotypical shape, color, size, or texture that can be attributed to predict addiction. Anyone can be impacted or affected by it. Many who are addicted don't think they are - especially since addiction is an addiction to thinking, and what we think of our-self - or ego. There is though one common hallmark shared by all types of addictive behaviors. It is an unwillingness to learn from experience.
We're here to talk about it so that you can better under and why it is happening and what you are doing to help enable it or solve it.
Thanks for your proactive participation by listening - and talking about it more openly
Our conversation has been held weekly for two years. Prior to that, for many years it had been one on one. This is the first agreed-upon group recording made available publicly.
There were as many as twelve people in our discussion today, some participated by listening.
Considering ideas openly can be highly explosive. This tendency reflects combustible thoughts, thought to be hidden, as they are exposed. To "trigger" someone is to act in a way that exposes their finger poised and ready to pull the trigger.
The breadth of our discussion can offer perspective on how we have collectively learned to function and dysfunction with one another. Cultures and convention are based on many ideas that are not true serving only the culture thinking them, and not always well.
Our discussion offers a view that may allow you to more easily consider things that may initially seem hard or even impossible to imagine sharing or hearing from anyone else. We are here to be heard so that you can watch how you respond or react, anonymously.
It is not a coincidence that we think we have great clarity in addressing and defining the wrongs in each other and society at large - while not noticing it is what we are thinking about what is happening that primarily defines our experience.
Some Topics Discussed:
- Social Ills are the measure of our collective mentally ill thoughts
- The degradation on our streets is a reflection of our collective failure
- We cannot be apart from anything we are a part of
- Mentally obsessive thoughts are like stagnant water: unhealthy
- The thinking that creates a problem cannot solve the problem - using the same thinking over and over again expecting a different result is insane
- We can talk about mental health openly as we do any health issues
- Honest communication is essential to any constructive ends
- We vote with every choice we make
- Considering our vote includes polling others and asking if we're asking for the same thing or employing our right to choose anew.
- Quantity cannot replace quality - more of what is wrong is not better

- Obsessive thinking is an obsession and a compulsion.
- Self-will is a choice to act on what we think.
- Social ills are reflections of mental illness
- If all that is, IS then we are of IT so thinking of IT incorrectly only causes inner conflict for the thinker.
- Thinking is something we do not who or what we are
- All that is happening is happening now - where problems are created and solved
- Satisfying primary needs relieves stress
- We are always present
- There is no other place to be than where we are here and now
- All that is happening can only happen in the present.
Consider:
There is always more happening than we think unless we're thinking in absolute terms.
Thinking it possible to do any more or less than what is happening now is to think we can or should be anywhere else but where we are now.
Imagine the interminable conflict created by making believe a lie is true.

EXERCISE / CONSIDER:
Words and actions are expressions of thoughts. Feelings are immediate reflections of thought.
Thinking, thinking to it-self, thinks up and of a self, or ego, born in thought. Ego is not who we are, ego is who we think we are and obsessive thoughts center on egoistic thoughts thinking only of them-selves.
Beings Are, Humans do. Beings Know and humans think using reason to try to understand. Thought is a primary human doing or action. To think thinking is our only source creates a stagnant feedback loop, like inbreeding, diminishing our functional capacity.
We observe our thoughts or would not feel wrong. What we "make" of things, or think they are, is not what they are but what we think. To think what we choose to think is reality or truth when what we think up or of expresses any less than Truth and Reality in Absolute terms is to malign thought with how things actually are.
Truth and Reality existed well before any human thought. Thought is a byproduct of whatever is Absolute and what we call or think of IT is irrelevant to IT while subjecting thought and our emotional state to inner conflict and emotional turmoil.
Thoughts thinking only of them-selves is like water that is critical to all life-forms yet turns to poison when it stagnates. This drowning pool of thought is manifest by what and how we choose to think. When thought thinks only of it-self ego is what it thinks up and of. This imposter is made of conflict and based in fear since we Know it is not true, we know it is not real and cannot be us no matter how defensive we act.
This imposter posing as who we think we are imposes a depressing weight on our experience since it is a lie and since our Being nature is based in Truth our human experience express repulsion followed by chain-reactions and inter-reactions that manifest as guides to what we are doing, or thinking, that is wrong.
As long as we maintain lies obsessive thoughts will admit for us what we steadfastly deny creating. To look is to see. To look with obsessive thought is to see only what we think we see. Seeing a world that is deteriorating is seeing thru the fractured lens of obsessive thoughts trying to dis-integrate the natural order of integration in all things. Obsessive thought’s last stand is a fight for the life of our presumed self, that has no basis or life since the basis of lies and and obsessive thoughts have no sub-stance. How things seem or appear to be is not how they are.
Lies are held in the present. It is only now, where we always are, where all that is happening happens, that we can undo obsessive thoughts or maintain the lie and the chain-reaction set off by our repulsion. If we can do “it” we can undo “it”. If we can feel worse we can get better.
Foggy notions are see-through and only appear to solidify when we consider them real and true. The warmth of the sun dissipates fog and Light eliminates any haunting shadows used to justify that the chronic self-imposed fear, anxiety, stress and pain is happening to us rather than caused by us.
We watch our experience. What is happening is our guidance system and all we need to see that is wrong with our thoughts, words, outward actions and inter-reactions.
Consideration is an awakened meditative contemplation looking beyond the horizon or seeming defensive bounds of impossible thought.
Love provides Freedom and Responsibility and cannot condemn us for or to any Choice.
Response-ability is not reactivity.
You have, as we do, all you need, to do anything and everything that is possible now. In fact, like it or not, it’s all you’ve ever done, no matter what you think.
Stay tuned.

Johann Hari - Ted Talk on addiction / mental health
There is no conflict in what we think or do until we think we shouldn't be thinking, feeling or doing what we're doing. Once thinking is opposed it appears we should not be where we are, with what we have, while we are exactly where we are, with all we have. This inner-reactive fight will continue as long as we perpetuate wrong ideas as though they’re right. Feeling conflicted is not an accident or a curse, it is a sign we know what we're doing while twisted thinking claims we don't. Lies require chronic maintenance using reactions to deny creating the consequences.
We cannot lose or ever be lost where we are now, but we can act on lies and create the desperate impression we are alone. The clues are obvious. Denial is self-induced anesthesia offering short term topical relief to help us feel better while the problem worsens. Numbness is the accrued tension bodies assume as a consequence and reaction to denial. Numbness is used to treat the symptoms by “feeling better” while the cause gets worse. Thinking we’re better by getting worse at feeling what is actually happening is twisted. To think this method of denial is under control is another twisted use of thought. Denial, defensiveness, defiance, and delusion grow to stay ahead of the growing problem or cause. More is never enough in addiction since treating symptoms ignores the cause, the cause like any misdiagnosed disease gets worse.
There are no victims or irresponsibility in the Present. We can think and act out irresponsibly since we are free to choose what we think. Feeling condemned does not mean we are condemned when it is only contempt full thoughts we choose that create the impression. There only abundance in thoughtlessness are reactive, impulsive, and compulsively destructive behaviors reflecting the unworthiness and uselessness of the under-lying delusional thought.
Freedom, Choice, and Responsibility are our principled nature. What is absolute is not negotiable. What does not change does not shake when our thoughts are shaken or stirred. Response-ability is the ability to respond and responsiveness is a sign of life.
We are sentient Beings. We are aware we are aware and know we know. The attempt to use the numbness as proof of life is to act like we’re dead and even loneliness would be impossible if we didn’t exist. The twisted nature of lies is obvious and easy to see for anyone interested in looking. Laws of nature are our nature and ordered to help guide us to survive and thrive - so we have more to give just like nature has so well so far done for us.
There is no fight for or about what is right, real, or true. What is Absolute is Absolute. As our Absolute nature is expressed our thoughtfulness is naturally full-filled. Following our intuitive nature it is clear fulfilling our functional capacity only seemed impossible to obsessive thinking trying to understand what to do while thinking only to and of it-self.
There are no secrets. Thinking the shame, embarrassment and guilt for our choices can be hidden is wishful thinking to excuse the pretense we use to pretend other-wise. There is no wisdom in ignorance. Ignoring what is happening does not stop or change what is happening no matter what we think. Denial is nothing more than delusion amd no mirage ever quenched anyone’s thirst.
Peace is the ever-present state of our knowing awareness. What we actually have is what we share: equally, indivisibly, indiscriminately, equitably. Self Realization and Self Actualization are states of awareness realizing what is actually happening, is always happening now.
There is no place to go and nothing to get to be where we are, as we are now - intimately sharing with all there is and all that are.

Michael:
How can we stay on course?
Our discussion respects all twelve-step programs' tradition of anonymity so that we can speak openly about our associations without violating their suggested principles. We also ask this tradition be respected at the level of press, radio, film and internet so that our participants if recognized are not disclosed at a public level beyond their choice to be heard.
Anonymity may be a chance to hide and avoid any stigma attached to our behaviors but in its essence, it is the chance to expose all that we share. Anonymity is the faceless, placeless, persona-less; egoless essence of our existence.
There is no discrimination or segregation in what cannot be separated - nor is there inequity or distinction in what is indivisible. Anonymity reflects the sum of all that we are rather than the stories we use to identify our "selves" as distinct from others. Anonymity is not divisive which is why it is the basis of Unity underlying all of the Traditions “ever reminding us to place principles before personalities”. Why? Principles precede, and exceed who we think we are which is thought’s premise for our persona - or personality - not who we are but what we think.
Anonymity also protects any organization that represents any program from being tarnished by avoiding publicly pronouncing or disclosing our - or anyone else's - membership or association should we, once again, fall prey to any compulsive symptom.
In any program we associate recovery with, we are uniquely qualified to help others similarly afflicted. Talking openly is the chance to help where we might not always recognize a need. As I was taught: we carry the message or the disease. Both are a choice, both are contagious. What we can think we do separately we do simultaneously since all that is happening is occurring presently, now - for all that is and all that are.
It is common for the connotation of a word to narrowly reflect the divisive potential of thought. Anarchy as a word is generally associated with violence. Bill Wilson described the organization of AA as benign anarchy. We are each free to do what we want and when we do what is best for the whole organizations flourish and affirmative acts provide great benefits for a broad audience and fulfillment and satisfaction, naturally for all involved.
The utopian ideal of anarchy is Love. Love does not need a ruler or rules to love. What It Is, is what It gives. Love Is our basis and ultimate guide. There is no fight in Love as there are no parts or positions to take in what is indivisible.
Opening, or considering, this concept is the chance to see that we are always capable of acting our best even when we don’t think so revealing how thinking can intercede in ways that does not reflect our nature and so does not express our full beneficial or benevolent capacity.
The mental obsession does not only underlie glaringly obvious compulsions but all reactive and impulsive behaviors. The mental obsession is an equal opportunity for anyone who thinks what is wrong is right, or what is right, is wrong. Mentally obsessive thoughts do not discriminate any more than an Absolute Loving Source can give or take or come and go, or not be All It Is for all that is and all that are, including not surprisingly you.
We share an Absolute Knowing Present Awareness. When a foundation is solid only the structure built on it can be shaky. When we feel shaky it is the weakness of our “self-centered” thought that we feel. We are aware but have not well exercised our awareness in though. That is what we are here to do for you as it is for us.
Some considerations:
Truth, Reality, and Love cannot be denied - no matter what we think - and our human experience of suffering is evidence we know this since we know more than we think, we know better. Pain is our frank, honest, immediate admission we know something is wrong.
There is no addiction, loss, condemnation, pity, guilt, or shame in Truth, Reality, and Love. There is no escape from what is essential and yet there is no condemnation in what is absolutely abundant, supportive, and generous.
What is True, Real, and Loving is what we share, since it is all there is. What is inviolable cannot be extinguished; It's light cannot be put out, It's warmth cannot be cooled, It's beginning cannot end.
There is no discrimination, segregation, or inequity in what is indivisible, essential, and non-negotiable. Letting go of what is Absolute is having it since it cannot be contained or held in thought. What we think can be held is only a thought holding what it is thinking about. Truth need not be held or told to be True. We cannot have our own truth or reality since it cannot be something for each of us if it is not everything for all of us.
It is not grandiose or arrogant to imagine our Source as Infinite, it is grandiose and arrogant to imagine it is not - if it is.
We are not afraid of the unknown. We are afraid of what we know when we think we can hide it or from it.
We are not afraid to die, we are afraid to live. To live as though our life depends on defending lies, to save us from exposure, is to create the threat we claim our defensiveness is protecting us from. Addiction is a lie and so twists and squirms like a worm to give the appearance it is making progress.
There is no greater vulnerability than to protect something that has no life, as though it does. For what use would protection that creates the threat be? Lies infect our human experience like a contagious plague. Lies are no more than we make of them and when we think what is not true is real, we think we are tasked with the creation of truth and reality and are repulsed and embarrassed by all we think we see.
What is happening is always happening. What is happening is the sum total of all that has ever happened and all that is happening as it is happening, now. To think things should be as we think they should be is to not think of what is happening but what we think. Shortcomings and going are thoughts circling themselves like buzzards, taken seriously. Mistakes trigger misgivings.
Remember, when life seems impossible, it is only an impossible thought, acted on as though it is true, that we are experiencing.

Questions to thread our third of three conversations:
Everett:
How do I stay in the zone?
Michael:
How can I be of maximum service?
Some topics covered in this clip:
Learning is a function of the brain to guide the body and its functional capacity. Learning does not make things work but recognizes how things have always worked.
Thinking never knows and knowing never thinks - until thought expresses all that is known.
Thought has no impact on Knowing while it dramatically impacts our human experience. To think we are only what we think is to wear the depressing weight of what is not true.
Knowing does not learn or think and cannot be undone or let go of. Knowing is not at risk or in question so has no doubt, does not reason, understand, or think. Knowing does not change as thought and other things change. Knowing is stable while obsessive thought is doubt-full.
An Absolute Source cannot be let go of, escaped from, or denied. We cannot defend it or defend against it no matter how much we fight. What is indivisible is essential, indefensible, and neutral since its basis is not relative, it has no positions to take or sides to oppose.
An Absolute Source is unrestricted and abundant while any seeming obsessive source is constrictive as it relies on going in circles to serve the thoughts it feels condemned by. We know the difference between ease and dis-ease: discomfort, disturbance, and inner conflict. If we didn't know better we would not recognize what is wrong.
If what IS, IS, it is not a coincidence when we decide to look that we "see" our knowing, present, awareness. Neither is it a coincidence is that when all we think we have to do is think more about what we think we feel disconnected and alone as our thoughts spin on a not so merry go round.
Physical fear is designed to protect us. Self-centered imagined fear is mental and designed to kill the image of who we think we are that has no life that is not imagined to be real and true. To kill the entire body to stop obsessive thoughts is a good example of how seriously we think what we think about ourselves is true.
Irresponsible thoughts lead to irresponsible conclusions. Mentally obsessive thought is addicted to irresponsible conclusions and acts to undermine all forms of health and well-being. Social ills are the broader reflection of our collective participation in this form of thought.
Learning is beginning to unlearn the habitual habits we've used, the stories we tell, and the fixed belief systems we think are true. There is no effort in knowing and there is no effort or doing in undoing and letting go of what has no basis. Our exercise is not learning to redevelop new wrong ways but noticing the wrong ways we think are right are maintained by continuing to oppose them. We have no obligation to continue since we are free to do whatever we want. If we are entertaining them and witnessing their impact it is our choice to do so "right" now that promotes the dis-ease or ease of the natural healing cycle.
Stay tuned.

Our universe is based on principles that provide its ability to function. All that is happening in our universe is happening now as it is happening with or without our understanding. All that is happening is the basis for our human existence and experience that is always happening now. Now is not somewhere or someone else or at some other imagined time but here, now, where you and I as We are. No extreme position we can take can improve or reduce our present state of mind.
When we make-believe what we think can replace principles, we think wrongly that our thinking is principled.
There is an order of operations in our universe. Lies have no place since they have no substance or basis for existence beyond appearance in conflicted thought. Using lies as the basis for reality is to lie about not wanting the consequences we create. Irresponsible thoughts produce irresponsible conclusions.
To think opposites exist apart from each other is to miss the common ground in between their extremes. It is not an accident that opposites attract since it is the natural order of things. The polarity of magnets is a good example. If you try to match the positive side to another positive side of a magnet you will meet opposition. It takes enormous effort to hold these matching ends together since they are out of order. This does not mean two matching sides do not exist simultaneously only that they will not align, or function, out of order. They will never work in this opposing way no matter the effort - unless the opposing effect is the goal. Passing a magnet over another will attract its proper order without effort. Nature is built into all the systems of operations in our universe and that includes how we operate and think.
Inner conflicts - or maligned thoughts - reveal our repulsions to lies and our outer fights and contempt-full opinions about the heavens, the world and its people evidence how far we'll go to fight for what is wrong to try to shield our thinly veiled righteous claim. There is no effort or fight in Truth as our ever present alignment now, always now.
Reacting to lies is natural. Not wanting to look at what is disgusting is common. Thinking it is all we can do is a lie. Obsessive thoughts are an attempt to turn all we think into reality and truth so we can think there is nothing more to think about. To look through the lens of obsessive thought is only to see what we think. This distraction is unattractive or repulsive. Anything that appears limited or appears to limit what we can see, like a horizon, is actually the beginning of all else, never an end or the end of anything or everything else.
Not looking does not mean what we see is all there is. We know better even while our twisted thoughts squirm and turn as we try hard to think otherwise. Our basis for existence is intact. If it were not we would not suffer from self-inflicted struggles, anxious "dis-orders", feeling wrong, bad, disconnected, less-than, or alone. We are not what we think and we know better than we think and thus act when we act out of order, we know something is wrong.
Having things as they are, which is how they always are, has no opposition so begs no distraction as peace is our natural attraction to all that is and all that are.

Questions to start our next trio’s trilogy:
Jackie:
**How to maintain Being while doing?
How to know that you have what you need when you need it?Gabe:
“How do we live a fully aware life on a daily basis?”
“Are we to carry this message directly to others, or is proselytizing a desire of ego?”**
Some points from this conversation:
- Conceding we know we know and are aware we are aware.
- Actions suggest we are actors and character defects suggest the parts we choose to play are defective once we think they're real - and who we are.
- Time as an illusion; past and future as concepts.
- Sick thoughts.
- Responsibility - and our capacity to act irresponsibly.
- Freedom to act wrong is an indication of a Loving Source and Absolute Freedom.
- Feeling wrong and mental anguish are the clarity of what is right and knowing better.
- Pain is a guidance system to offer perspective on what we are thinking.
- Contrary actions reverse contrary thoughts.
- Dashed expectations and hope reflect the vain idea that possibility should only be what we think we want.
- If it is possible to be freed from any compulsive symptom we are free to be free from obsessive thoughts.
- If we can make a disease worse there's a great chance we can think and act better.
- To see all people are better than we think gives them due credit.
- We're all better than the low levels we stoop to make-believe lies can be true.
Threads to our third conversation:
Jackie: Walking the walk, practicing Peace as Being Peace. Always having everything needed. Not needing to be needed.
Gabe: Conceding. Carrying this message. How to see others are more than we think.
Two questions left from Alyssa and Sturgis III:
Alyssa:
What becomes possible with access to an Ever Present Knowing Awareness?
Strugis:
Fools rush in where angels fear to tread - why do we focus on “fools rush in” while the second part is “where angels fear to tread” where awe and essence and reality are not?
Why must we almost die to wake up to the reality and awe of an absolute present awareness? How can we have more reverence for the natural awe we share?
A brief outline of topics from this conversation:
- Why do we think we need to die to have a Spiritual Awakening?
- The thought “life” of ego is only what we think of our self.
- Thought is hard to let go of.
- Age vs. maturity. Numbness is not the absence of pain but evidence of it.
- Claiming pain is truth tries to avoid its guidance that something is wrong.
- Lies and the seeming reality of the past and future only exist as concepts in thought. It is impossible to let go of what we think we don’t have.
- There is no loss in what is Absolute.
- All that exists is present, now.
- Responsibility, Choice, and Freedom as principles of human functional capacity.
- The choice to be aware, happy, react or exercise our response-ability.
- Thought as our greatest threat.
- Fighting for ideas or ideals that aren’t ideal.
- Consider conflicted thoughts are lies.
- Lunacy is popular.
- Self-consciousness is defined.
- God made in man's image and likeness has human traits; give and takes.
- We’d be better off if cannibals ate themselves. Yet while obsessive words eat
- themselves we insist on thinking we can't stop.
- Turning Self-pity, contempt, and spite into compassion.
- Why do people struggle to feel better and not worse?
- Turbulence managed. Turbulence witnessed.
- Unrealized emotion is realized as tension in our bodies.
Two questions to carry into Jackie, Gabe, Jack II:
Jackie: How to take actions toward practicing peace on earth to be the change I want to see.
Gabe: Thread of choice and decision making based on thought - and the embarrassment for what “we’ve” become. Who we think we are is what we think, not reality or truth. How can a brain get around thinking is not all there is? What’s the motivation to lie?
PS:
Human’s think and Beings know. Thinking is what humans do, Knowing is what Being IS.
When we introduce thought to our knowing awareness, thought is no longer tasked with trying to do and be what it cannot do or be. What is easy is not complicated.
We can speak in absolute terms by conceding things are as they are no matter what we think. Or we can reduce our potential to what we think by using words only to support our mistaken identity and all its contentions. Words are expressions of thought that can be used as abundant guides or serve limited ideas. We can feel better or worse by how well we see and express things accurately. Thinking we can escape how we feel is to think of feeling as independent of thought. Feelings are consequential to thought. While nonsense is common it is not a coincidence that our expression of common sense is uncommon. Even this can be seen as an admission or concession of knowing better since we tend to be quick to point out what makes no sense. It is not a coincidence we are aware of our limits it is a consequence of our belief in them.
What we think creates the landscape of our experience. We make sense by thinking what makes sense is only what we think. Senses are not an option, they come ready-made with bodies to make sense for us, automatically. It is what we do with our senses that discount accurate sensations. Consequences that seem unwelcome are not forced on us when we insist on maintaining a marching force of thoughts that are not true. Feeling condemned is an accurate assessment of giving credit to a bankrupt thought. To fund-a-mental condition to secure a profitable return that will never come by thinking belief, faith, and hope will prevail is how thoughts twist and turn to confirm they are true by denying what is happening. What seems condemned is who we think we are since ego is only what we think of our "self" and its life depends on the impossibility of turning what is false into truth. There is no condemnation in a thought that has no basis since there is nothing to be condemned. It is the thought thinking the thought will someday have a basis that condemns thinking to continue on till a then and there that never comes, to get where it cannot go, since it is nothing more than nothing, now - thought to be otherwise. We are never condemned to any appearance more than we are willing to continue now, in the present, where all that is happening happens and where obsessive thoughts are chronically rechosen as our source. Thinking we are condemned is not a coincidence it is a consequence of thought.
These concepts are designed to offer something to consider you during your day. To contemplate is to watch your experience change in ways that seem inexplicable or hard to understand. To come to terms with what is absolute is the chance to see any lack of understanding as a sign of growth. Lessing the grip on thought reliance means noticing your knowing awareness will not seem possible to defensive, reactive obsessive thoughts - while it is occurring. This is an indication of growing thought-full awareness that is an awakening of thought to what has always been known that only dysfunctional thoughtlessness struggled in vain to express.
Lies are not true so speak in twisted terms to think we can cover their nature. The past and future are used to dismiss our culpability for using them to excuse what we are doing. The past and future are concepts held only in thought. The Present is the culmination of all that has ever happened, and all that can happen, as it is happening, now.
The self centered in thought is what we think of our self and is central only to the disturbances it creates - in thought. Worrying about a future that is not here is intoxication with thought's capacity to imagine that what is not here can take our place. When in-toxic-ated with toxic thoughts chemicals stored for emergencies are used unnecessarily like drugs to numb us to what we are doing, like any compulsive behavior. If it were true there would be no need for justification to misuse our body for effect. We may think lies can be hidden but blood, sweat, and tears are instantaneous secretions of what we mistakenly call secrets. There are no secrets in the universe, or beyond, nor can our lying false self keep them, since, like the past, future, lies and ego it only appears to exist in thought.
To worry about what is not happening is an excuse to deny our thinking is worrisome. Worry is an accurate assessment of what we are actually thinking currently. What is happening is actual what is imagined to be happening is reactional fighting for a claimed life for an imagined self. Reacting to lies is natural when what is repulsive is thought to be true. Lies are repulsive since we know better as our nature is Truth and Reality.
Regret and resentment follow the same foggy but transparent path as worry. There is nothing that can be done about what is no longer happening. If obsessive thought could replace what is happening then thought would govern the nature of space and time and going back instead of forth would be natural.
Ignoring what is happening is ignorance. Being called ignorant is generally unwelcome since its popularity and out numbness has grown to seem normal. This does not say there is no value in considering things that are over and done but thinking things not happening have more culpability than what we’re presently thinking is a joke while not very funny to anyone taking this form of thinking seriously.
Paying obsessive attention to what is not happening reduces only our responsive capacity to function. Our struggles with contempt, anger, and doubt about regret, resentment, and worry are evidence we know better. To focus our cloudy lens on other people and times before we mind our own business is to have no mindful business. To ask others and outside circumstances to pay for what we're doing is to extort from them a ransom for holding our imagined self hostage to lies: illusions thought to be true: delusions we choose to perpetrate and perpetuate. To see what we are doing is to see our obsessive thinking about this and that, them, there or then is not true.
To think the thing we should never do is the last thing we should do is to admit it is still on our to-do list. Our discussion is not about how to get more shit together but to see obsessive thoughts as a waste product of lies. Liars hate being called liars because they are liars. If the self we think we are was not a lie we would laugh at the suggestion or simply hear the comment. To be constipated mentally and think we need more shit is contrary to how healthy bodies work. Letting go of shitty, wasteful, useless thoughts is to see that our fight to hold them has only been a delusional thought held in the present to be true. Letting go absolutely is seeing that what has no basis cannot be held no matter how tight we clench or pound our fists.
Consider this, live with it, and watch how your thoughts act or react, as your body tenses or relaxes. Your knowing awareness is greater than you think you know. Thought adapts immediately to what we know compared to the time taken to misshape it around imagined thoughts that have no basis in reality.
Mind Knows and brains think. Mind is Absolute Knowing, Peace, and Love. What is Absolute cannot come or go or be less than all that is even while insistent thoughts that come and go act like they are more or less.
Beings Are and Know, humans think and do. Humans are sentient Beings. We sense what is happening and feel according to what we think. To Be is to Know and to rely on thinking exclusively is to think we know. As human beings, we are free to think our source is thought and as free to think wrong thoughts are right. Free to steer wrong thoughts in directions we think are right is how we drive ourselves crazy. If who we think we are is not who we are then ego only "appears" to exist in thoughts that are crazy. Health would naturally see this threat and feel uneasy, disturbed, out of sorts, and sick. Our disturbances are indications of a healthy awareness. Thinking is aware it is wrong and listening to what we say and how we feel reveals it's knowing admission that we know what is happening and equally know what to do. Not acting as we know is how we try to prove what is wrong is right. Lies, lie. A lie's appearance has no substance no basis other than in thought. There are no lies in the universe that are not concocted in thought.
Knowing does not think so cannot think up a self-born of thought to discuss its dubious nature with. When talking to your so-called self watch your words to see if they aren't negotiating some settlement of unsettling thoughts. When who we think we are is what we think our bodies are mentally, emotionally, and physically challenged to act functionally and thus productively.
The Absolute is revealed in all that we do and denying what we are doing is not a block any greater than we think it is, so it is only a delusional, "self" imposed, induced, and imagined block we insist on maintaining with obsessive thoughts. Defiance and denial are defenses. To look through obsessive thought's lens is to see only what promotes and supports obsessive thoughts; fear, anxiety, doubt, stress, and depression. Truth cannot be defended since it is not offensive, relative, or any less than all that is - It Is not at risk. There is no denial, pain, or fear in Truth, Reality, or Love, so denial, pain, and fear do not exist any more than lies exist in any form beyond a figment of imagination, thinking they are hidden behind a fig leaf.
Truth is impossible, preposterous, impractical, and unbearable to obsessive thoughts while defining obsessive thought's not Truth. A lie's claim is that it is only what it is not, true. Obsessive thoughts and all addictive tendencies are based on lies appearing as chronic symptoms. When the twisted nature of addiction is seen as a mental condition - you will see clearly that thinking Life is impossible was only the impossibility of obsessive thoughts speaking loud and clear. Addiction is no more than we make of it. There cannot be any more or less of nothing or it would be something, now that's really is something!
There are no secrets in the universe, everything is doing everything it is doing, now, as it has always done - and our understanding of it is irrelevant. We are present witnesses to all that is happening, even when we think all that is happening is only what we think. If we can change our thinking mind, we can think again about any disturbance consequential to obsessive thoughts - now.
Responsibility is the ability to respond. What we think has no impact on Absolute Principles while what we think dramatically impacts our human experience and functional capacity. We each live with what we think 24 hours a day. There is no person, place, or thing that has any greater impact on our experience than what we choose to think. All voluntary outward actions begin with our first inner-action in thought. Responsibility, like all principles, is not negotiable, it is the basis for our existence if there is a responsible basis for existence.
Choice always allows not choosing. We want what we choose. It is only when we base our choice on sick thoughts we deny wanting them or their consequences. The problem is the solution to sick thought. Wrong thoughts are thoughts that can't be applied usefully, so cannot function or work. Irresponsible thoughts are the choice to think wrong thoughts are true. The common denominator in delusion is zero. Irresponsible thoughts precede irresponsible choices. If we are what we think then we would be irresponsible for having irresponsible thoughts. Irresponsible thoughts do not make us irresponsible, since we are naturally responsible. Irresponsible thought has no impact on our natural state of Being but wreaks havoc on our human experience when relied on addictively.
Freedom is Free. If there is a cost to freedom, it is not free. A Free for All, is free for all yet the term is used to suggest what is free for some comes at others' expense. This is an example of how twisted thoughts twost our word to spread rumors that warped ideas are as common as truth. Common sense would not be so uncommon if we commonly made sense. We want things as they are since we are free to have them as we want. To chronically live in an internal debate over this shows how free we are and how freedom works.
What is Absolute is not negotiable even while it can be argued and debated. Thankfully what we think has no impact on what is Absolute. What is Absolute is simple since it does not change and what is complicated in thought is not simple, until looked at accurately. We are free to choose to rely on thoughts fighting for our-self or recognize an Absolute State of Being has always been our Source. When we choose to introduce what is natural to thought it becomes evident there has never been any other option and to choose what is unreal as reality is not sane. One is a choice, the other is our natural state of Mind. What is Absolute is not a choice IT IS our ever-present knowing state of Being and there is no condemnation, revenge, or hatred in Truth. All sufferable conditions born of thought do not exist but to delusional thought.
Some things to consider and contemplate as an awakened meditation.
Principled concepts are indivisible and definitions only offer perspective to adjust thought's aim, depth of field, and focus. To have doubt is to have doubtful thoughts.
Reactions protect lies, or what is wrong since we know better, we are repulsed. Obsessive thoughts are lies so any actual relevance is considered irrational, illogical, and preposterous. Reactively dismissing anything is inconsiderate while it is considerate to stop, look, listen and see what we do accurately. Any lack of consideration is a defense against considering what exists beyond the edge of limited thoughts.
There are no lines to cross or points to make in what is indivisible. The razor's edge seems as thin and sharp as the invisible line we think we cross while trying to maintain balance on every point we make. There is no point in thought that stands alone so guarding it with reactive defenses is the admission of defeat.
How well we use what is happening as a guide determines our productivity and usefulness. Our currency of value is worthiness; worth-while and invaluable. Having more than needed means having more to give. Nature works this way. Obsessive thoughts are cannibals eating words from thoughts they generate and claim to protect.
Integrity is integration. If our primary thoughts about existence are wrong so will the underlying current of actions we take. How well thoughts align with how things are determines productivity. Like gears in a machine they all work or fail together.
Maturity comes with growth and not always with age. Growth is the choice to see that limited thought does not define what we see, but defines only what we think. Only to a dis-eased concept of reality and truth could this appear to make sense.
Thinking we are not awakened is to think we are asleep which is the attempt to deny we know what we're doing. There is no lack of opportunity in Life while the opportunity we have to express our great-fullness is lacking in thought. Life does not shrink or provide less when we act thoughtlessly, it is our short-sighted thought looking for scarcity to prove it is right, that does. Any sense of doom is not impending while maintaining doomed thoughts, it is immediate.
An Absolute state of Knowing is not something we can escape, while we can think we have. Try, try again and the sense of disconnect and isolation will never end. If we can make it worse, we can get better. In fact, we're all better now, whether we think so or not.
Addiction is a lie since the idea there is no other choice is a lie. If there was no other choice there would be no choice or resulting conflict. The principle of choice always allows at least one of all possible choices and not choosing. Obsessive thoughts, or lies, are the primary motivators of reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors. Choosing denial to claim what is happening is only what we think is happening is an excuse to act blindly and the inner and outer conflict caused is evidence we know better. If you think you have no other choice, you can think again or think you can't. Either way, thinking honestly, is a choice.
Lies are not wrong thoughts, they are wrong thoughts, thought to be right and thus true and real. A lie's claim is to be only what it is not; true. Anything that only appears to exist when it is the opposite of what it is has no basis in reality. At the other extreme when a lie is a lie it is not a lie. In either case, a lie can only exist within the confines of imagination, which when believed true, is a delusion or an illusion thought to be real. To think a lie is true is to think the liar is the all-powerful creator of truth. That's a leap since the alleged creator is always full of doubt, knowing better. What is empty is full of emptiness. What has no substance has no substance. It is grandiose to suggest what is empty and void of substance is full of shit; taking credit when is due is what lies do.
Ego is what we think of our self. When thought thinks of it-self, it thinks up a self born in thought. What only exists in thought is imagined. The ego is a reflection of imagination so it is nothing but what it is thought to be. Ego is a lie that seems to become who we are once we think our thought is capable of turning what is wrong into right, or a lie into truth. Who we are is not who we think we are, who we are is who we are, regardless of what we think. Like Truth, who we are does not rely on thinking, thinking relies on Reality and Truth. Talking to yourself is talking to a self incapable of listening or responding beyond the limits of the thought(s) appearing to give it or them a voice. If you experience repetitive voices in your head they speak and argue only as a reflection of obsessive ideas you believe represent you while they are only an image of ego talking to it-self. Self- consciousness is roughly defined as feeling undue awareness of oneself's appearance, or actions. This embarrassed state of awareness would not be undue if we were thinking about who we actually are rather than taking the joke about who we think we are so seriously we forget to laugh. The effort to manage this image, as truth, is largely what defines manic, obsessive thoughts' mission "in life". When what we do to save the life we don't have pollutes or kills what we do have, clearly something is wrong and might be worth talking about.
This conversation focuses on the questions from our second conversation:
Alyssa: What does the Infinite enable, how is it practical?
Sturgis: How are thoughts aligned, or maligned and what is their impact? How can this be explained, or gotten across to someone?
This is the third of our three subsequent conversations. Listening in order can offer context since they build on our collective interactions.
This episode is the second of three for us as we continue to discuss mentally obsessive thoughts and reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors along with what we can do to foster or abandon this addictive tendency.
The two ending questions from our first conversation were:
Alyssa: How does this relate to forgiveness?
Sturgis: How do feelings work in relation to thought?
As you walk through your day consider what you hear and you will know what fits since it will not require obsessive thought to maintain it. This often occurs as your awareness grows beyond your first impression. Your experience will value your considerations as worthy of attention, or not. This is not to suggest it will be pleasant to look at what is happening accurately. When food is rotten is smells bad to alert us that it is not safe to eat. Nature works in our favor. Food for thought works the same way. To feel good about feeling bad is maligned and the natural inner conflict will remain as long as we think what we need is to feel better about wrong thoughts we are entertaining. As wrong thought is seen as the cause of feeling wrong the choice to adjust our thinking can become obvious. Feeling wrong dissipates when we stop fighting what we are doing. Obsessive thinking will persist as long as we resist what we are doing. Problems are corrected by focusing on the cause rather than treating the symptom or effect.
Responsibility, Freedom, and Choice are core principles of human functional capacity. Principles are inherent in human experience and fundamental to virtue and value. Principles are not negotiable they are fundamental and ever-present no matter what we think. Principles do not suffer when we deny them, we suffer as a sign we know better since we are naturally principled.
We are apt to say we're sick when we have a runny nose taking a day off work or canceling engagements to get better and keep others from potential contagion. Yet when our thoughts run in chronic circles it is not as common that we take time to discuss or diffuse the contagion. Addiction doubles down on the problem as the solution.
Our bodies are designed to eliminate waste, constipation is an unhealthy condition. Obsessive thoughts are mental constipation. Pain is our guide to what is wrong, to help not harm.
Thoughts that have no substance do not become substantive when we pay obsessive attention to them. Not re-choosing, repeating, re-acting to a reactive thought is always possible.
Our conversation is a chance to witness others who struggle with mentally obsessive thoughts and their consequences and the freedom conversation and concession provides.
We welcome and appreciate your participation.
Truth, Reality, Peace, Love, Light, and Life are Absolute and essential to human existence. What IS Absolute is indivisible, indiscriminate, equitable, and not negotiable. There are no exceptions to what IS Absolute. The opposite of the Absolute is Absolute. When the opposite of something is the same it is not relative and thus not a thing but the potential for all things that relate. What is Absolute is fixed, IT cannot be broken by change since it is not in bits and pieces and cannot be more or less than All that IS. What IS Absolute is always new as it is always Present, it has no end, IT has no time continuum or spatial dimension thus IT is not in time or space since space-time is a possibility of IT. Humanity and thought are possibilities of what is Absolute - what is Absolute is not made possible by thought. If the Absolute is Absolute then IT IS no matter what we think. If IT IS then IT IS. There is no fight in or for Peace or Truth as It is unchanging Reality. Nature’s essence is simple, elegant, seamless, and beautiful. If the essence of our existence is thought to be anything other than IT IS a seemingly fractured state of mind would be consequential.
Truth asks nothing and provides everything. Like principles all the varied concepts of the Absolute are Love. Shakespeare defined Love as an ever-fixed mark - when change it finds it does not change. What and how we think impacts what we think, not Truth or Reality. To hear this clearly is to rest in peace on earth, now - not till "death do we seem to part" as our only chance. Lies promise if we give them all our attention, we will be rewarded with something otherwise missing. A lie's promise is a broken promise. Grief, regret, despair, and doubt are the shit lies are full of. Truth makes no promise yet provides all we have. .
An Absolute Knowing Awareness is our Source, we know better than to think what is wrong is right. Inner conflict indicates what we are thinking is opposed to our nature. We naturally suffer frustration and anxiety acting this way. Looking in reverse when we suffer frustration and anxiety what we are thinking is right, is wrong. Depressing symptoms are not strange anomalies or mythological, superstitious, or "super" natural curses; they are accurate reactions - or effects - caused by inaccurate desperate conclusions, imagined to be true - thus real. When thoughts are thought to be our primary source the Absolute appears preposterous, irrational, illogical, and absurd while it is our thoughts that match that list.
What is Absolute is how things are, how they appear is how they seem in thought. The Absolute is unshakeable so when we are shaken, not stirred with curiosity and the adventure of exploration, we think dis-ease appears natural, common, and our only option - which is of course not only wrong but a lie.
What is Absolute has us and it is impossible not to be of IT. There is no escape from what is Absolute yet there is nothing to escape where there is no contempt, doubt, fear, loneliness, or scarcity in Love.
Consider, considering these thoughts.
The mental-obsession is the core disease of reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors - also known as addictions. If you suffer from mentally obsessive thinking you know it but may not understand why. This mental ailment is not limited to people with overt or obvious addictions but all who struggle with inner conflict.
Our conversation will include people who struggle with obsessive thoughts. Our focus is to accurately assess its cause and how it can be resolved. Life is not impossible when we ask thoughts to do and be what they are not designed to do or be - but life can seem that way when we demand thinking succeed at doing what is impossible. If we can make anxiety and stress worse, we can get and are better for recognizing what we are doing.
It is our goal to open this conversation to interested ears as we learn to get better at discussing it openly. If you experience this chronic mental disturbance listening to what we share and learn from each other may provide great benefits.
The world is much bigger and better than the one we think we live in alone. Your participation in the discussion is how you respond or react to what you hear. We know you and others are within our reach and we all appreciate knowing you are listening.
Your questions, comments and suggested topics are welcome.
If you would like to direct your email to any participant please place their name in the subject line and your thoughts will be forwarded accordingly.
And - if you'd like to be a participant in one of our three-session talks, we'd be interested in talking with you.
Thanks for your participation.

Neither our discussion or any directed or non-professional participant comments are a medical or scientific diagnosis, prognosis, academic thesis, advice, or religious service. We are not encouraging you to stop any protocol, program, practice, exercise, regimen, ritual, or therapy you are on or that may be suggested. Nor do we suggest or encourage you to discontinue taking direction or prescriptions from any professionals you rely on.
Our discussion is a chance to relate to points in the midst of what is said. Three voices offer a three-dimensional perspective. Our goal is not to speak in terms that cannot be contested but to offer a glimpse into what words cannot define. Introducing thought to knowledge can relieve thinking from thinking it is all we have, to know. Twisted thoughts naturally unravel, like rope, when they are no longer tightly held.
What is simple is easy to complicate. What can seem complicated is simple. To think our sole source for how things are is how we think is to ask thought try to do and be what is impossible. Trying to fix this condition with new changing thoughts is how obsessive thought is maintained. Mental obsession is a chronic disturbance. It would not be disturbing if we didn't know better.
To think of thinking as our primary source is to commit our awareness only to what we think. If it were true confusing conclusions and doubt would be our crowning achievement. A disturbed mental state would be our natural state. If doubt and uncertainty were our natural state then elation rather than anxiety and stress would be their consequence.
If an Absolute, unchanging, unlimited nature is our source then all that is ever wrong is what we think. An Absolute Source does not rely on what we think for confirmation, so it does not change as our thoughts change. Stability and balance are our natural state of Being. If IT IS as IT IS we are free we are as free to feel condemned as we are to stop, no matter what we think. An Absolute Source is always where we are, here, now.
Seeking and searching to find where and who you are is futile, frustrating, and exhausting - and feeling sick and tired would accurately reflect our vain attempt. The hardest place for thought to find is where we are when we think we're not there. Obsessive thoughts feed like cannibals on the food for thought we freely choose to feed them, thinking delusionally that further, faster, and more will get us there, while here all along. More is never enough in addiction so it is easy to spot when all you think and do is never enough. Addiction in all its forms is caused by what we think. It does not happen to us - it is created by us.
Our conversation will offer perspective to expose what may seem improbable, preposterous, and impossible as possible. Obsessive thoughts chronically defend only what is indefensible. Acting oblivious to what is obvious will fade as thought is introduced to the illumination Absolute concepts. Forgetting tries to deny forgiveness. Forgiveness is letting things be as they are, not as we think. Beware, to all those dark thoughts you harbor, you are aware they are there leaving them no place to hide but in the dark low brow of delusional.
Considering what you hear may change your preset disposition to a new channel in your space station. Giving an inch in thought, like yoga, reveals flexibility in what seemed intractable turning reaction into responsive traction.
We're here to look and talk about what we do, as we do it.
We're glad to have who you, whoever you think you are, wherever you are, here with us now.
