Confusion Can Lead To Clarity!
The experience of life is perplexing to most.
There is uncertainty about what the future may bring,as well as about what happened in the past.
What's more, most are dwelling on these worries,
leading them to be confused about
what is occurring in the present as well!
In the face of this mazelike condition,
is it really possible that Confusion
could actually lead to clarity?!
To answer this question, we need to first
address some common causes of confusion.
Common causes of confusion:
1. Ill health
2. False mental concepts
3. Tangled emotions
4. Denial of reality
5. Failure to express
Ill Health
It includes people that are "health conscious,"
"health nuts," or seem "very healthy."
This planet is a very toxic place to live right now.
Light & noise pollution, poisonous public water supply,
noxious fumes, radioactivity, chemically-laden
"weaponized" food products, genetically modified &
hybridized produce (even organic), electromagnetic pollution
from cell phones, computers, "smart meters," and other devices
are some of the insane health challenges we face
on a daily basis on modern planet Earth.
This is may sound paranoid or depressing,
but it is just being realistic about the situation we
find ourselves in. It means that everyone should
sleep more, focus on getting excellent nutrition,
meditate daily, reduce stress from the lifestyle,
drink plenty of spring water, and work on
becoming a more calm & loving person.
As we begin to care for ourselves deeply,
some of the brain fog will begin to lift &
the confusion that surrounds us as a cloud
will begin to lessen.
False Mental Concepts
we are being programmed by societal norms,
parental belief systems, environmental factors, etc.
We accumulate a huge number of harmful & false
mental concepts that lead to confusion because
they are distortions of reality and not actually true.
That is why meditation is extremely important.
Through self-reflection and surrender at depth
we will begin to allow these viruses of thought
to fall away, leaving our minds more blissful,
clearer, and calmer.
Tangled Emotions
fear, happiness, jealousy, rage, and so on
are actually all false emotional concepts.
Since we categorize in such terms, our emotions
become tangled and confused. We are
judging them and not really experiencing them.
Here again, contemplation is one of the best ways
to process these feelings and allow them to be
without denying what we are experiencing.
Everyone should set aside at least thirty (30) minutes
every day for self-reflection to consider everything
that occurred during the day.
This is just as necessary as urinating or defecating
to remove waste products from your body!
We must also remove mental and emotional
"waste products" by this daily introspection.
This will transform the emotions and make them
shine through in their true beauty.
Denial of Reality
what is really true using false belief systems,
distractions, and blaming other people for problems.
For instance, there is great fear for most around the idea
that All people and things are One. That means
there is no privacy in the universe;
All things are connected and known.
Reality is an open book where you cannot hide from
the Truth except in your mind through a lack of awareness.
People use distractions of all kinds of
entertainment to hide from facing themselves.
Remove this childish habit by affirming
"I want to see/know the Truth."
This what is implied by the well known teaching:
ask and it will be given to you,
knock and the door will be opened."
Failure to Express
To transmute is an alchemical term meaning to modify
in essential quality; It means to change one thing to
something else using a specific procedure.)
prevents us from reaching clarity. Even if we
improve our health, remove false concepts,
untangle our emotions, and accept reality,
if we do not have a way to release and express
the energy we have cultivated, it is quite dangerous.
We don't want to build up steam like a
pressure cooker, never releasing it until we explode!
One of the most powerful ways to transmute
confusion into clarity is to express ourselves in
whatever form(s) we can!
This includes almost everything in life, potentially.
It can be writing, singing, playing instruments,
talking with people, making films, drawing,
painting, cooking, even working a job,
owning a pet, building friendships/ relationships,
teaching, reading, practicing martial arts,
practicing meditation, traveling, etc.!
The most important thing is that
we begin to accept our experience of life
deeply and forgive/ love ourselves fully.
Then we can express our true feelings,
thoughts, and inner being without guilt,
leading to clarity!
Confusion CAN Lead To Clarity!
We have seen that there
are many common causes
of confusion today including:
Ill health,
False mental concepts,
Tangled emotions, and
Denial of reality.
We identified some strategies
to work with these. Also,
we have seen that we must
express these feelings &
thoughts in some manner
so they can become
transmuted into the clarity
that is so satisfying
on a deep level.
May we all gradually
become more aware of Truth,
And help each other as we
learn and grow.
