Although the majority of mankind believes in a superior being, there are others who contend that "we" are the supreme beings, and that we also have total control of our lives; end of story. Whatever your spiritual belief is, your soul has its own date with destiny.
The Diversity of Mankind
Even before birth our senses are growing and working. Touch and sound intensifies at birth, and now the third dimension soon becomes very physical. What's the purpose for these senses, and why are we born with so many? With: sight, sound, taste, touch, and along with the sense of smell, (being the major senses) life is all about experiencing these senses in very unique ways.
Each individual experiences life in their own personal way. Some people's minds are ruled by mistakes from the past, while others are dominated with worries of the future. Each soul is designed with its own personal agenda to experience the diversity of life.
Everyone is unique. There are no blueprints available for developing the perfect clone of ourselves; yet. Identical twins even have their own individual personalities, along with different passions and dislikes. Just as the laws of attraction entice and arouse you, your phobias and your fears can also dominate and rule the mind. This is when the ego comes into play.
With six and half billion souls sharing this planet, the options of experiencing life to the fullest extent is quite amazing. If one spirit could tap into each soul, and experience life through their heart and mind, what would this spirit be called?
God Sense
Looking down at an ant hill, you watch these tiny insects going through their daily routines totally oblivious as you tower over their tiny world. Watching the animal kingdom, no mind can imagine what goes on in the minds of these amazing creatures. Do they constantly fear for their lives, or are they even vaguely aware of their mortality? Would it be easier not to be aware of your mortality, and then not fear the inevitable: death?
The mind of humanity is capable of almost anything. It can be used to: create, torture, heal, and even destroy its existence for eternity. But, what's the purpose for our existence, and what force lies dormant in these senses; as if waiting for an outcome, or even just a glimpse of compassion.
All of these senses evoke thousands of emotions in the mind. A certain smell can take you to a beautiful memory, or it can bring back destructive memories from long ago. What the mind perceives depends on what your perception of life is. Programming the mind is the first place to start.
Sights and sounds can make you cry, or they can evoke a passion of love which is almost unexplainable. All of these emotions are connected to the way we rationalize our thoughts, and the choices we make in life. Do you smash that ant hill as you walk by, or will you stop and stare with at it with wonder?
Unlocking the secrets of life is all about understanding yourself: the true self. What are your deepest fears, and what can also bring a joyful tear to your eye? All of these emotions are the key to experiencing life to the fullest extent.
The Mental Highway
The third dimensional mind is a super computer that works at light speed. In order to distribute and organize all of these thoughts the mind must make thousands of split decisions in a fraction of a second.
With 100 billion brain cells, the human brain is a marvel to science, and also a miracle in itself. The speed of a neuron (brain cell) has been estimated to fire 200 times a second. Each neuron is connected to another 1000 neurons as 100 billion neurons react to each other. With 100 billion neurons firing at 200 fires per second, the total calculations are estimated at "20 million billion calculations per second."
Storage room in the mind has been considered as "functionally infinite." More storage is always available in the mind; it "never" runs out. With this super computer for a mind, and a mental calculation rate which can't be imagined, how could you ever have a moment's peace?
The only way to live with a super computer for a brain is to learn how to program the mind. How could anyone program a mind with such mental capabilities? The best way to start is to be mentally aware of your thoughts. Not every random thought that enters the mind, but those thoughts that dominate the mind.
Over 90 percent of our thoughts are regrets from the past, and worries about the future. Getting beyond these useless thoughts is not easy to do. Once you learn to recognize a useless thought, the reprogramming has begun. Use the brain to reprogram itself. Throw out all of the thoughts which you have no control over and let them go.
Think of your thoughts in 4 categories:
Category 1.
Thoughts of actions to be taken immediately. Self preservation: keeping you out of danger, and actions to be taken now. Category 1 thoughts are immediate reaction, or something that must be done at the present moment.
Category 2.
This category is perhaps the largest category of the three. Every thought in this category is about self preservation. Worries or thoughts about what someone said, or may think. Planning ideas for future events, future conversations, and opinions to be spoke.
Now is when the ego and the sense of self come into play. The ability to recognize the ego when it shows its ugly head is the first step of defense against self preservation; or the ego. This is the stage of thought when mental house cleaning is done. Everything must be put into some type of order: busy mental work.
Any thought in this category is here to be stored in its appropriate place. When you need to recall this thought, bring it out, but put it away when your done with it; don't dwell on these thoughts.
Category 3.
This stage is the most useless stage of all. Thought patterns in this stage is all about mental self preservation and regret. Regrets from the past begin to occupy and dominate the mind. As soon as one bad memory springs to life a dozen more thoughts join into the party.
Worries about the future now come into play when the regrets from the past are released. Now it's another problem solving quiz pondering what "may" happen: 2 minutes from now, 24 hours from now, or ten years in the future. All of these thoughts are useless; as thinking about these thoughts has no direct effect on any outcome.
Category 4.
This category I call the God and creative part of the mind. This is the category where the mind is in when all other thoughts are silenced. This is the part of the mind that connects to your soul, and your subconscious mind. Perception, intuition, and mental awareness are increased when using this part of the mind.
Mental awareness is the most important part of living with a destructive mind. When a thought enters the mind: categorize it, and file it away until it's needed again. The mind will begin to retrain itself after this thought process is repeated over, and over again. This "programming" is not done quickly.
Recognizing these destructive thoughts is a giant step forward to Godly living, but this only the beginning. Listen to the inner self to reach deep inside the soul. Your actions and words play a very important part in determining a safe future for generations to come. Our children, and also our children's children is dependant on: what we say, what we do, and also how we treat others around us. Don't continue to live with mental lies, or a false sense of clarity.
Once you begin to recognize these thoughts the brain will automatically begin to sort out the destructive thoughts, and cherish the positive ones. God is living life through us, and also watching the decisions that we make. Now you're ready to live life to its fullest potential, because you're using the biggest and strongest muscle the third dimensional body has: the brain.
