Life basically revolves around two extremes….which are on one spectrum. There is mindlessness and mindfulness. Interesting we get them mixed up.
Mindlessness: Is actuallymost often born of having too full and too busy a mind. Where one is often trapped, caught, haunted or obsessed by thoughts and fears. Where one takes the thoughts to be the complete and utter reality. It creates conflict within and creates feelings of conflict others and the world around. Carelessness and conflict often result from it.
Mindlessness is not having an empty mind. Empty minds are at peace. Troubled ones wage wars.
Mindfulness: Is being aware of thoughts. Letting them be. It is being aware that the human condition generates thoughts and feelings just as the physical conditions of our world creates weather. The mindful person is aware of the weather and the seasons and does not try to control them. They flow with them, are mindful of them, at peace with them. The mindful soul there for has no conflict – within or without – and cause none. Mindfulness is sensing that all these pieces of the jigsaw of life are of one.
Mindfulness is not having a full mind. It is where the contents of the mind at peace, where the weight and burden is eased and where one is at peace with themself and all that is.
