| Trust in Mind is the same as Trust in God, or Have Faith, or Self-confidence (not personality-confidence), because God is Mind. To me that means: Know, don't think you know. Trust IT, the voice in you that knows before you doubt. IT is the life energy, the wisdom, love, peace, joy, beauty, I feel flowing in me, as me and through me. They used to call it God, but i am allergic to the word. IT is all there is and I know IT when I am free from knowing better than IT. When I let go of preferences and telling IT how IT should be, which means when I turn against my own nature. That's self destrucive, obviously. Neveretheless me try that every other day, because I am overcome with emotions of anger, resenment, blame, and then I forget that me didn't create it and I can't fix it. Drives me nuts, because my mother always told me I have to fix everything. Now I keep reading this poem to remind me that Big Mind is bigger than little mind. So all I need is to go out of the way, drop the judgments, the anger, and the stories and stay in peace of mind. That heals. TRUST IN MIND Lombardo translation
The Great Way is not difficult: Just have no preferences. Cut off all likes and dislikes And it is clear like space. The slightest distinction Splits heaven from earth. To see the truth Don't be for or against. Likes and dislikes Are the mind's disease. If you miss the deep meaning, Stilling your thoughts is of no use. It is like vast space, Nothing missing, nothing extra. If you choose or reject, You cannot see things as they are. Outside, don't get tangled in things. Inside, don't get lost in emptiness. Be still and become One, And it all stops by itself.quoted from the book: "Trust in Mind" by Mu Soeng For the whole poem (in a slightly different version) check: http://www.mendosa.com/way.html |
