Mind Power – Is Thinking Real ?
People have limiting beliefs all the time. Problem is that when you have a belief, you think it’s the truth… but its not, its just a belief! Beliefs can blind you into thinking what you believe is truth and people can be made to believe anything. We know that there are terrorists who have been conditioned to believe that by killing people they will be going to the heaven. What makes the human mind so dangerous is that it can be primed to believe anything. You can brainwash and indoctrinate anyone who is not self-aware. And majority of people are not self-aware and that’s why are prone to indoctrination and brain wash. That ways you will always be a slave to someone’s else’ agenda and can never be a master of your own destiny because you cannot see what is going on. We have to take control of our most important asset- THE MIND!
Your mind can not just make you rich or poor but can also make you fit or unhealthy. Thinking is real and is powerful! And if you are an unconscious thinker then you have a problem-you are not even aware of what you think or believe, not even aware of why & what you are doing.
What is the difference between a man and an animal? If I throw a ball, my dog will run after the ball. Do you think my dog thinks that she is running after a ball? No, its just an instinct. She is doing the act without being conscious of the act. That is the fundamental difference between humans and animals. Animals are not conscious of what they are doing. Humans have the ability of being conscious of what they are doing. Ask yourself why you do what you do? Why have you chosen certain things in your life? Why do you have the biases that you have? Does the pet in our house tell us how to live or we tell them how to live? It’s because we tell the pet that we are of a higher consciousness than you so we will tell you how to live. Fair enough! So, think now from humans’ point of view. People who have higher consciousness than us rule us and tell us how to live- I am your master! If you have a master, then you are not conscious. Its just like we have the dominion over the animal world by virtue of our consciousness, in the human world, those humans who are more conscious than us have dominion over us! I HAVE MENTORS, I DO NOT HAVE MASTERS! If you cannot express yourself, cannot live freely, cannot do what you want to do, then you are living under a master. They make decisions for you. You don’t mind making decisions for your pet, your masters don’t mind making decisions for you. This is the hierarchy… the lower you are, the more people make decisions for you. A degree doesn’t facilitate consciousness, you may have many and yet be low down on the socio-economic ladder. We have to elevate our consciousness if we have to have dominion over our own life.
