CONTROLLED BY FORM:

[Pravin Kumar]

Controlled By Form:

When there's a need to reach for something because of a mind agitation you become controlled by form, until this is understood you will remain controlled as you seek to quiet the mind agitation using whatever form desires...

You will never find the peace you’re seeking if you’re controlled by form which is the seeker of fulfilling desires. Peace is something that's already within everyone, but because of the way our minds are conditioned you get controlled by form which makes you think peace is something outside of you. Unfortunately this control makes the very thing you are seeking impossible to grasp. This control by form is the reason one is constantly reaching for something from the outside, until this is understood you will remain controlled by a form that thinks peace is in the next thing reached for. Alcohol, gambling, drugs, sex, religion, social status, programs, therapy, self help books, politics, and on and on, this reaching is proof that you are controlled by form. I can't stress this enough as this has to be let go of if you are to experience true peace in your life.

It's impossible to think your way to stop this control. What does have to happen if there’s to be an understanding of this is why you’re controlled by form is because of the inability to just be. When the need to reach for something arises, the control by form begins. This being controlled by form is a vicious cycle that's very difficult to break. Breaking free of form and being at peace isn't something attained or achieved so it's in doing less (letting go of form) that peace is experienced. Too many people are controlled trying to find peace through the attachment to form, but since peace is something that's already within you the control is a vicious circle because it becomes about being controlled to find what’s already there. This is not easy to grasp, but it's why I share so the control by form can be seen for what it is; the cause of why you keep reaching for the peace that’s already within you...
