Question ALL Thought Patterns

The brain loves patterns. The more you repeat, the better it gets at action. The better habits you have, the healthier you become... After all, isn't that where the expression, "practice makes perfect" come from?

But habits, good or bad, are a hinderance to life. Inner peace is not something to be attained by adding more practices or beliefs, but rather by stripping away the unnecessary noise created by habitual thinking, beliefs, and judgments. In our natural state-peace, sensitivity and vitality are abundant but they are too often obscured by overthinking and conditioned mental habits. Have you ever had the courage to ask yourself, “What are you without your thinking?” What happens when you do?

Whilst much of your life may seem to be "happening" with influence from the outside, your so-called experience of negativity or the opinions of others disrupt your peace of mind. Why do you let them affect you? Simply, you add meaning to words. Much in the same way as how others seem to impose “facts” and beliefs onto you, often creating unnecessary limitations and stress. By not automatically accepting external narratives, you don't let them affect you in any way, and you can maintain the balance of peace.

Understand the Illusion of Separation of inner and outer to main the balance of peace

Why do we divide the “inner” from the “outer”? The moment we do, we perpetuate stress and conflict. True wellbeing and inner peace comes from recognizing that your consciousness and environment are not separate; what you experience internally is understood within your surroundings. Rather than trying to manage stress through external fixes and life hacks, why not question the root causes of stress, conflict, and anxiety? What artificial entity creates the imbalance of peace and conflict?

Watch for:

1. Any single habit, beliefs that hold you back, and the need to judge.


2. Question external “facts” and societal norms instead of accepting them blindly.


3. Recognize the interconnectedness of your inner state and external environment; inner peace arises from dissolving the illusion of separation.


4. Don't rely on others or outside information to form your life.

You are a powerful energy. Whatever beliefs you "latch" onto will create your so-called reality. Awareness of things created by thought, belief, and the perceived division between self and environment will lead you to a much simpler life, or what we like to call living truly in the present.
