Why to be mindful?

[Beeman]

Isn't mindfulness a waste of time, what it is purpose? Why to be mindful? Instead of changing all the subconscious program with energy psychology modalities.

Without mindfulness, how would you know what subconscious programs to change? You would have no idea it even exists.

Do you know someone who's addicted to something that is destroying his body and mental health, even when there is hundred of studies and evidences in his own life confirming it ?

Can be anything, not just drugs.

That can't happen if you raise your consciousness, not on long term.

@Belay kelemework Imagine being on autopilot 24/7. No thanking you ?

@Belay kelemework U gon' die.

Also, you think what being happy is ?
You think you know what love is ?

That is kindergarten stuff compared to the ecstasy of living from a place of truth ?

Mindfulness is good for becoming more conscious of your minds activity. If you do it you can reach a point where you can explain someone's behavior 100% as well you will learn things about yourself you never knew existed. Maybe you're full of shit and ignorance and when you start reflecting on yourself you see wow. I didn't know I'm an asshole I thought I'm good guy well everybody thinks that way Also as you become more and more mindful of your mind a distance between you and your mind arises. This causes disidentification from the mind. And it has many banefits. worlds problems doesn't trouble you as much. Also as you move away from your limited identity your presence will change. Like saints they have that subtle presence about them. You will be more peaceful and less reactive to the things that are happening outside.

there is no fundamental reason. you would deliberately choose to do so if you suffered due to a distracted mind and conflicted thought patterns. it's like drinking water when you're thirsty.

To improve your life if you see the changes caused by mindfulness as a benefit.

You can argue anything is a waste of time. But wait what time is there to waste??

@Belay kelemeworkdn  damn man mindfulness is one of the cool shit I know.  It is like watching yourself like you watch a random person let s say; and also being 100% detached from yourself.  Can you imagine that?
