Wherever we are today, it's all right for us to be here. We must continue to believe that the judgments we have about ourselves are just illusions from our beliefs and values.
On this journey, many of us have been handicapped by our beliefs and values. We were born into situations that taught us how to become like everyone else. In other words, we were taught to believe that being like others were our goals.
Regardless of how much we denigrate ourselves by embodying toxic beliefs and values, we are still able to do something, right now, to enlighten our minds. This something -- the willingness to work on our minds -- is to understand that we have the Powers of Mind to clean our minds.
Powers of Mind is not magical. It requires us to work intensely on our minds. It requires us to trust ourselves. And if we desire to know who we really are, we must take the time to understand our beliefs and values.
There are some things that are debatable, but the development of our minds is not one of them. And whether we accept it or not, we received our beliefs and values from three primary sources -- parents, society, and life experiences.
These three sources are responsible for everything we know about ourselves and the outside world. This includes both the spiritual and material worlds. And it's from this foundation that we conditioned our minds with our current beliefs and values.
Many of us would rather fight with our illusions than do the work to understand how we created them in our lives. We believe our beliefs and values are too daunting to mess with. And in most cases, it's our unwillingness to unravel our lives and become different from others that stop us from working on our minds.
Whenever we become aware of our suffering, we immediately seek answers. Unfortunately, all the answers lead us back to our minds, which are responsible for how we feel. Yet if we desire to know more about ourselves, we must relinquish our fears preventing us from disentangling our minds from our toxic beliefs and values.
Similarly, it's the fear of disentangling our minds from our beliefs and values that causes us to believe we are nothing without them. It's our fear of nothingness, the unknown, and being alone that prevents us from traveling deeper into our minds.
Nevertheless, we're never in the unknown with Powers of Mind. Powers of Mind is the enlightenment we have always known, but forgotten after we embodied others' beliefs and values.
When we clear our minds, we know that Powers of Mind is not a myth, nor is part of the illusions we are currently fighting in our lives. This is the power of clarity to see ourselves and others without our current beliefs and values.
Powers of Mind provide us with the clarity to distinguish between inspiration and solution. In other words, we have sufficient clarity to know that books are inspirational, not substitutes for our not doing the requisite work to overcome our toxic beliefs and values.
Meanwhile, we must remain mindful that all paths or roads lead back to our minds. We are responsible for all of our decisions and the beliefs and values responsible for them.
So, let's release our dependency on others for our enlightenment, and use our Powers of Mind or intuitive-unconditioned consciousness to express our enlightenment.
