MOD LXIV

Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady

Text Message here

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.
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 this can do nothing about them. Managing insanity wrongly presumes there is actually something to manage. This is unmanageability and lack of control as out-of-control.
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.
Thinking correctly allows thoughts to express reality rather than realize their maladaptive potential. 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 l

We Know We Know.
We Are Aware We Are Aware.
We Are as We Are.
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.
Glimmers of enlightened insight are sparks revealing the Ever Present Shadowless Light of All Knowing Absolute Love that we call Life.
Sharing this affirms and confirms we indivisibly share All Knowledge of Reality as Truth.
We stand for All of All.
Listen up; speak up.
