at some point, we really have to pause, if we don’t want to remain frustrated children fighting windmills and polluting the minds of others

When we sit down and take a deeper pause within ourselves, we discover that the first sensation makes us react to its content, but also that the one that follows makes us react not only to the first but also to its relationship to the absolute ground in both us and in that from which it was first generated. We thus react first to the sensation then to its relationship to the original whole because it is in us as much as it is in anyone else. Our mental equilibrium makes us observe in a self-inspecting way how we react to the sensations that arise in consciousness. So mental balance also becomes important for us. We are that relationship to the absolute ground within us regardless of where the sensation arose. When the sensation is manifested, when it is staged in a relationship and given a form, the content of it takes on specific properties that we can relate to. We can ignore them and react to them without worrying about their content and meaning, which means that they just continue to multiply, which will form an uninterrupted stream of incompatible sensations, or we can create a pause through self-observation that allows us to perceive the content of them, and the form they have taken. By doing so, we will see how their action affects our relationships. The manifestation of the sensation, the very form of its content and the energy that drives it in our transmission of it, is the missing link between the external object and our reactions. When we stop and observe our sensations, we come between them and how they manifest, which has dissimulated our sensations and obscured our relationship to the original whole within us and its content, and they turn into the mental pollution and garbage with which we defile our surroundings. The discomfort and irritation and restlessness we feel arise from this and without self-observation we become derogatory towards those around us, because we want them to know better, stop acting in ignorance, and do not heed the deeper experience of authenticity we ourselves want to realize from that experience in our own lives. We act without the right intention and the absolute ground that assists our sensations with their content and blame others for the mental impurities that arise in the absence of our own relationship to that within ourselves, and the whole that reflects them within us all the time. But it is also from this that our morality arises. Not through our words or explanations, but as the experience we embody inherent in the relationship to the absolute ground within us and in nature itself. It is in us and we are in it. At some point we really just have to take the deeper break we need to find it.
