Social Bodies

Today I am going to be talking about a very crucial subject; The Mind and The Soul.
As I mentioned in previous posts, we are born in a society that is determining how we live and how we eat and many other stuff. We think we are free now and that there is democracy and freedom of choice but there really isn't any of that around.

First, lets talk about freedom. We are born from our parents like a blank page, divine,pure, and holy. But the hectic society that we live in starts making stupid barriers just so we can live up to other people's expectations. And the truth is that this is a very crazy cycle because we try to live up to their expectations and they try to live up to ours! Here a question is asked, where is our freedom in choosing how we group up to be? And our mind, our centre of delusions, our bipolar master, keeps on making us do crazy stuff. Just try and sit alone for a moment, in a quiet room, with a piece of paper and a pen, and just write down whatever comes to your mind for 10 minutes. After doing that, look at the piece of paper. You'll notice that a crazy mad man is living in your head! Thoughts and thoughts just keep coming and going, and Why? Because we are afraid of being ourselves and to blossom with our true spirits. We just keep analysing and analysing just for the cause of hiding our selves and showing a fake, more furnished image of us. A one more accepted by society. This is freedom? For example, when you go for a work interview, you wake up early in the morning, you dress your best, good clothes, clean shoes, fake smile, fake persona and fake characteristics just for the sake of the cash that work brings in. Society never accepts true honest people because they are rebellious, they are true and like fire. They accept no limits on their freedom. But that's not the case here because the society is always putting standards and standards and Ideals. Ideals comes from the word Ideal, which means perfect, and no one is perfect in this world.
But, we wake up, and we spend our day just being slaves to our mind.
"Wherever you go, your mind is a step ahead of you. It is not only that it follows you like a shadow, it is always one step ahead of you, it has reached before you. But you are never aware of it because it is so transparent. Whenever you are entering a temple, your mind has entered before you. When you are going to a friend, when you are embracing him, your mind has embraced before. And this you can know, your mind is always rehearsing. 

That stepping ahead is always rehearsing. Before you speak, it is always rehearsing what to speak. Before you act, it is always rehearsing what to act. Before you do anything or do not do anything, it is rehearsing. The rehearsal means that the mind is preparing itself before you, it is always one step ahead. And that is a constant, transparent barrier between you and everything else that you will come across, that you will encounter."  Osho




There is no more individuality in this wacky world, only societies. Standards set and forced to be followed. And at the end of the day, we never really live our present because we are so caught up with our future by planning for the weekend or for work, studying for future exams, rehearsing something. Our, we just sit thinking and wasting time with hate and regret about something that has happened in the past and that our mind still didn't get over it. You are not your experiences. You are not a mind, the mind does with the body. We are a spirit first, and our body is our materialistic spirit. Let Go of the Mind and let the divinity In.
