The source of all the reasons behind why everything "works" in one's life,

irrespective of how pitiable or glorious their existence is,

is a place beyond the realms of the Mind.

This place, this nucleus, this epicenter, I call the Anti-mind.

All the "good" that happens,

happens because, by some chance or conviction, one acts from this source, the Anti-mind.

And all the "bad" that happens, can be, without fail, traced to the whims and the many

involuntary thoughts generated by the Mind.

Then again, there is really no good or bad,

because in the end, these are mere labels created by the Mind.

For the Anti-mind does not deal in labels.

For the Anti-mind cannot deal in anything the Mind deals in.

The Anti-mind can deal with one and only one thing ...

The Truth

~~~

The joy in one's life is their ability to spend their limited time on this planet in a way that feels fulfilling.

And almost everyone, at some point in their lives, realizes that it is about getting one or both of these things "right" ...

Their vocation and their relationships.

Many like to think that it is their personality (Mind) that allows them to excel at both.

While I will go the other way and say that it is everything but their mind that allows them to do so.

It is their, however limited, however by-chance, exposure to the Anti-mind.

~~~

So what about relationships? Ones that are long-lasting, satisfying and wholesome?

The consensus is two-sided on this one.

Some will say that it is about finding the "like-minded" partner, someone having a similar personality.

While others will purport the opposite. For the statement above will not "make sense" to them.

And so they will say, it is about having opposite personalities,

so that the two sides fit well together and compliment each other.

To either, I will say, what are human beings? Nuts? bolts? Machines?

Nonsense!

Let's talk Truth!

Most relationships today are built on mindful foundations of dependence, need, desire and hope.

And as such, they are destined to fail, whether they actually fail or not!

(To me, anything is a failure that does not flow or which does not yield more than what was put in or requires constant maintenance to sustain.)

Relationships today are as dwindling and fickle-minded in their foundation, as the very nature of their creator (once again, the Mind).

And as such, one constantly ends up playing roles and other (mind) games to keep it going,

until the day comes, whey they cannot take it anymore.

The truth about real and truly fulfilling relationships is that they are rare

As rare as the humans who are involved.

For both the sides realize,

(either before entering the relationship or by some happenstance, during)

that they are not just their minds.

And thus the foundation of their relationships are not (or slowly shifts away from) mindful traits

The foundation of such a relationship is everything BUT the mind.

The Anti-mind.

~~~

What about one's vocation? Their art? And what about Creation?

A lot of people will say that such things are the result of one having a "creative" Mind.

What asininity!

That which the Mind could not understand, it came up with a mindful word for ... "Creative"

There is no such thing as a "Creative mind"

For the mind is like a mere tool or a Butler.

It is there to serve the creator.

It is the owner of the Mind that can see and listen to things that the Mind cannot.

And in doing so, it is able to create magic out of nothing.

How does the owner do so?

By dwelling in the source, the Anti-Mind.

By surrendering themselves to the source.

By becoming the source, the Anti-Mind.

To become a true creator, one must learn the way to find their way to this source.

Because when they are there, they sit right between the "nothing" that they do not know (the Void),

and everything that they know (the Mind).

And as such, they gain the ability to truly create

In gaining the ability to interact with the nothing and the everything, "something" is created.

Creating "something" this way is always original, is always a sight to behold.

And when one looks at or interacts with the end-result, they find everything and nothing at the same time!

~~~

In life,

the Anti-mind is a vantage point, closer to what is real.

And when one looks at things from this perspective,

they begin to really see things for what they are.

In more technical terms, the Mind is digital while the Anti-mind is Analog.

So while delving in the Mind allows one a sporadic view of things comming at them spottily,

reaching the summit of the Anti-Mind equips them with the ability to "take it all in" or look at and understand the "source code".

And while in any and all context, the Mind is about effort, interruption, ambiguity and projection,

the Anti-mind is all about effortlessness, flow, clarity and thus ...

The Truth.

Thank you.
