Comparison Breeds Desire & Fear
All we seem to do is constantly “compare”. Compare our history, and everything that has come before with “what is”.
This then has the effect of recording the present and adding it to the memory storehouse that is the brain. This is the process, or the “movement” of thought. This cycle then continues on indefinitely like a perpetual motion machine where it seems nothing can stop it.
When you compare something it is either an “is”, or an “isn’t”. From comparison arises “desire” and “fear”.
When you don’t compare then you don’t experience “desire” and “fear”.
Is any of this true?
Please look to see if you can see what is being point to here for yourself. Observe like a scientist, impartially. If you’re partial to something other than what it is you’re observing while you’re observing, then you’re probably not really observing, and if you’re not observing then you have no chance of “seeing” and then really changing.
