Faceless

See that the inner critic is nothing more than a series of self imposed images in contradiction with one another. Images that have been handed down through personal experiences be it the family, education, and other social situations. Also this conditioning is fueled by social institutions or conventions, that attempt to apoint a role on an individual. An attempt to designate an identify one by his role or her in society. Problem is some people resist this designation for the perfectly sane reason that they don’t really know who or what they are or what they want. This inner critic is a conflict of contradictory outward and innward impositions. Thoughts, ideas, and notions that do not agree with another. These are attributes of thought “the thinker”. And in the fragmented nature of thought division cultivates contradiction, contradiction produces conflict, and conflict breeds suffering. The inner critic is the mechanical fragmentation of thought in constant battle with its self. This war is given continuity by thought. So inquire into thought which is you. ?

Don’t worry....There is no now if there is a projection of worry of the future.

No words ? Native American drums and wood flutes ?? Carlos Nakai and many more

I am not ??

Seems like truth in the ultimate sense is only when the center is not. Truth is when subjectivity ceases. Before the movement of thought enters in and distorts what is and projects an abstraction. Basically take “yourself” out of the picture and whatever is left is truth lol

What is Love? One way to tell is what love is not? If we can’t narrow down what Love is how do we know if we love or if we are in the presence of love?

Probably should inquire into what we mean by truth...What is truth?

??A perspective on mastery To me a master implies having or showing very great skill or proficiency. To acquire complete knowledge or skill in (an accomplishment, technique, or art). Seems to me that total technical knowledge is not a possibility. So does anything less fail to be mastery? So how does one become a master? What is missing? Seems to me that knowing ones limitations would be the missing link in mastery. The accumulation of functional knowledge is a necessity, but even more importantly is the capacity to have insight and perception into the nature, structure, and substance psychological knowledge. Once grasped one see’s that functional knowledge and psychological knowledge are both the movement of thought. Thought in function is fundamental, but thought psychologically becomes a hinderance. To understand psychological thought is to understand oneself. To see that the thinker is the thought. This insight becomes ones foundation, and is the difference between an expert and a master. To me knowing who or what I am is most important. Learning the mind implies to learn yourself, and in that self knowledge and utilization of technical knowledge lies a vehicle to mastery. ??

@ocean...I’m also a body weight movement enthusiast. I like to blend little of other aspects on top of that foundation though.

@Ocean....Just remeber if you specialize you pay a price. To incorporate all aspects of physical fitness makes a healthier whole Bruce Lee/idol portal Good stuff friend??

@Okaythen ...ah life as a drama. An actor playing the role. Without the bad the good would have no meaning lol This is one way of looking at it from a distance The cosmic dance between black and white

Emotions are subjective. So if one was emotionally intelligent they would have the capacity to observe objectively without the center influencing every action. And most likely not get involved in the never ending battle of good vs evil. The road to hell is paved with good intentions Allan W.

Bruce Lee was a holy human being. He was whole in the sense that his whole being was properly maintained. His body/mind/thought were one. He was an inquirer of thought and a scientific investigater of the body. When it comes down to it every part of your organism is effected by another. Body effects mind, mind/thought effects body. There really is no seperation. It’s one process of many processes. When you investigate into thought which is yourself, motive becomes clear on why you want to become physically fit. When the motive and intention is observed objectively you get your answer to that question. Your motive to that question is the answer. Blend psychological order with an order of physical fitness. Be aware of the reasons for doing things. Also try exercising or working out alone until this questioning yourself evaporates. Then go to a social fitness club or environment and test your motive and intention. Personaly I like to be alone I’m fitness. When I exercise usually I am enjoying myself and not being critical. Every moment should be enjoyed. Don’t do it just because it’s good for you, but because you also enjoy it. Life is to be enjoyed ??

There is a common root of addiction. The root is the same for all forms of addictions. The only thing that is different is the object. Here is a start.... What is the root of addiction? What is pleasure? What gives pleasure continuity? Once the this unknown source that gives continuity to pleasure is realized inquire into that. Learn about it. Understand How it moves in its pattern. Use direct current or past experiences to visualize this process. See this movment it in its totality. In becoming free from addiction, The seeing of its whole movment is the doing. In this observation there is action. If you really want to become free from all addiction, the only way is to become free from yourself. ??

Freedom from the old invites what is new. And what is new implies creativity. Creativity is dynamic, active, alive. Thought is always old, static, anything influenced by thought is invention. To add to or modify. Not truly new or creative. So if thought is depended upon to be creative this attemp will be nothing other than modified imitation. Creativity in its deepest sense is when thought is not. When the center ceases. Freedom from the self is the movement of creativity. Artist of the past have been known to take time before working on there craft to become free of there sense of self. ??

@Geromekevin...?? Insight and total perception of the movement of the intellect leads to truth. In this perception truth is not yours or mine but it’s own movment. Truth is only when you and I are not, and the observation is free of subjective influence. Only a capacity to investigate objectively without any implications of the center interfering can lead one in the direction of what is true. That very difficulty to let go of logic is its limit. Because that logic is influenced by and clings to the preferences, bias, prejudices, and conclusions that have been handed down through academic/social conditiong and established principles. As a studied physicist this understanding of thought “intellect” is of great importance. I’m not a scientist but I appreciate and implement a scientific mind in the inquiry into myself “thought/knowledge”. To use logic, reason, and rationality with the total perception/insight as a foundation is fundamental and essential in a mind that inquires, investigates, and explores. “But to discover for oneself what is true and what is false, and to see the truth in the false, is to let that truth operate and bring forth its own action.” Jk&DB This is insight/perception. Hope this sparks an interest in the limits of logic/reason/intellect, when not understood in its very nature. Thanks for sharing friend??

@OkaythenSeems as though our endeavor is one and the same??

@Okaythen i appreciate your input into this friend ??

@Okaythen ...I understand sir, but it’s not us vs them. There is no division between us and them. We are a antagonistic, brutal, competitive, ambitious, and violent people. This is who we are. We are the problem. I’m responsible to express these facts about oursleves. To bring light to these acts of division and violence there needs to be an awarness that this stuff is happening and why it is so. In this understanding of the problem comes its own solution. This is how change will come about for future generations. To call out what is offensive to the human race now, maybe even stepping on a few misled people’s toes is worth it to me. The future is all we can influence. The actions in the now are done. We are all responsible in changing our selves inwardly to bring about outward change. Such means of change are rather necessary. This self knowing and understanding of conditioning is the very thing will help those soldiers combat the ptsd and so on. It’s our responsibility and those soldiers especially to show people of the future that violence is not the way. If a person rationalizes there choices and actions because they get a sense of security or validation then that person is a hypocrite and deceiving themselves and others. The ability to see there mistakes clear without justification is intelligence and it’s never to late to do so. In self learning or self inquiry into thought we can see that thought divides. Thought is responsible for this reality. It’s not your thought or my thought there it just THOUGHT

Yes to understand the mind implies learning and understanding of ourselves. In this learning the mind becomes orderly. Not only does order in the mind/thought decrease conflict and contradiction, but that order also transfers over into longevity of health in the brain and the body. In this inquiry into the mind we will capture a capacity to use thought in its right place which is as a function. And when we learn the nature, structure, and substance of thought then comes insight . For example, When Insight or perception acts we will see that when it comes to relationship with ourselves and with another thought has no place at all. In the action and movement of insight there is freedom from the center “thought” . And in that freedom there is love, beauty, creativity, joy, and compassion. In this investigation into the mind/thought, this insight or perception will allow us to stop being a slave to the tool of thought and become free from the mind. This is a religious mind, this is intelligence ??

Heavan is filled with isolated spirits Didn't have to study religion to see that

My favorite book is the book of myself??

Self denial, self mortification, sounds rather unececary to me.

The psycho therapis & psychology expert took the place of the priest. Lol

Lol I wasn’t aware of a self help industry. Sounds contradicting... but as far as helping yourself, it’s the only way. As for the walking PHD’S and there babble, it’s all part of there conditioning. There influences become there securty. There is a lack of responsibity in this “McDonald’s” psychology and it’s standards that emphasize conformity accordance to ideas and abstractions. I see those people with phds going on there to. It’s hillarious.
