When the mind is restless and constantly moving seemingly everywhere around, it takes two directions. It seeks the past and the tomorrow. But if we observe it a little bit more closely, we discover that what it does is that it places our entire psychic space or some of the content of it, its subsets, on experiences from the past, or uses it as a potential of ideas and the expectations we have of them, on a possible tomorrow. This is to try to create order and coherence in the flow of independent and undeveloped psychic states to which we have no relationship yet. Therefore, trying to understand our world based on all the individual events in it only becomes desultory in all its confusing opposites and the compensations they imply between them. It will only fragment our minds further and increase our bewilderment, which contributes to a deep sense of hopelessness in our ability to see them for what they are. For this to be possible, we must first acquire a perspective from which we can follow our mind and objectively observe the origin of the movements of the mind in our psychic space. Something we cannot do from within the states they create, but from their background in our nothingness and on a deeper and more fundamental level of our being. Without this, our mind becomes so uncoordinated and confused that we lose ourselves in thoughts, impulses and feelings that seem to act on us without any inner context or in any relation to our own person. We will feel as if we lack belonging to the mental background that the world is for us. Its whims and sudden turns in which everything seems to be events without any relation to an underlying ordering or coherent principle. So we learn early in life to do it with activity. To constantly stay active out of fear of what will happen if we change our perspective, and see how far from our absolute reality we are, what it does to the people around us, and in a collective sense what this accomplishes when we adapt to what this does to our world.
