SELF INVESTIGATION

[Pravin Kumar]

Self Investigation:

Self investigation takes more courage than most people will ever exhibit. This is because the conditioning in place doesn't allow it and until life isn't all about you anymore, your conditioning prevails.

More and more I’m amazed at the things that people hold onto with the emphasis totally on satisfying self. There is little or no consideration for anyone else and it's strictly from a me, me, me, mind. I know it's because they know not what they do, but the suffering this causes and how it anchors the conditioning in place can be truly discouraging. Notice I said can be discouraging because if one is truly awake, there's the understanding that the way things are is the way things are and wanting them different also anchors the conditioning in place. I'm writing about this because the conditioning in place is heartbreaking, when you have answers and they are ignored by most, it's like having a cure for cancer, but nobody will listen. Without going into specifics, the conditioned unconsciousness runs so deep that people will justify doing all kinds of self destructive behavior without blinking an eye; drugs, alcohol, gambling, porn, rioting, protesting, total defiance for any authority, murder, rape, assault, and robbery and this is only the tip of the Conditioned Mind iceberg. Here is my understanding of why this is, it's much easier because of the way one is conditioned to justify self destructive behavior than to look inward. True self investigation takes more courage than most people will ever exhibit, not because they can't, but because the conditioning in place doesn't allow it.

I offer to talk to people all the time to possibly assist in the waking up process because the conditioning in place keeps one as a dog chasing its own tail as all kinds of excuses are made not to connect. I get it, but it doesn't make it any easier to watch people suffering when there's a way out. The insanity of this is people would rather remain in their suffering then to go beyond it, which is truly heartbreaking. I don't say this because I'm a know it all, but I have been released somewhat from the grip of the Conditioned Mind and was provided answers that are shared strictly from experience. And how I know that I've truly broken free from the Conditioned Mind is because life just isn't all about me anymore.
