Past is a story in your memory and the future is an imagination based on your preconceived notions. What lies is the ‘Eternal Now Moment’ of spontaneity.
Your experiences define the realities of your mind. Have you ever been to a place that you have been never before?
The day you decide to be there it creates a new sequence of patterns and images that results in a completely new experience and increases overall
understanding of your understanding.
What you think and why you think defines how you think. If you engage your thinking to the things that are irrelevant to your life and growth. If you expose yourself to the information that doesn’t help you to find the direction of your life. You’re merely wasting your precious time and priceless mind here and there on the things that are nothing but garbage. And you’re doing it all because you think everyone thinks and works like this way.
You need some modifications in the ways of your thinking that can result in some changes leading to design a lifestyle that you want to develop and live for yourself.
It’s not others business to show you how to think. It’s your ability and responsibility to make sure the garbage of useless information is out and the expansive timeless wisdom of our civilization to enter the realms of your mind.
You may be thinking past, future, places and now this thinking stuff. What’s the point?
The point is that there is a huge burden of information overload on your mind that makes it restless to find solace at a fixed place. And it keeps on swinging between past and future projections creating a mess of unorganized information. It’s like a baby monkey jumping from one branch to another of the same big tree in hope to get some bananas that are kept on another tree.
You can only feel sorry for the little baby monkey.
Once you enter the dimension of the ever-present ‘Now’, you’re free of this ‘information overload’ and ready to do the single task that you think is important right now here at this moment for ‘You’.
Being in the ‘present moment of now’ opens a portal to the freshly organized information in the mind and your access to each bit of piece of it.
Now you’re ready to focus on your goals if you have. Or witnessing and enjoying the reality of the moment as it is free from unnecessary chit-chat-chatter of the mind.
The key to Peace and Satisfaction is not in the dreamy fairies of thinking and dreaming but in ‘Realistic Action’ and it’s possible to act only in the Present moment not in some past or future fantasy.
So, leave the past aside and keep the future on one side and start acting right ‘Now here’ in the present moment.
But what shall ‘I’ do?
Do nothing! ...Just Look and Listen that is sufficient.
