Patience as Self/Living Expression (Part Three)
So, this ‘movement’ of
the mind, the body and also physical reality is important to note as we
continue in the next post with how self-movement with breath/physical movement
will assist and support with the self/living expression understanding of
Patience in one’s personal process and so eventually in other’s processes. To
so not get caught up in Time in the Mind with reactions of Patience /
Impatience, but become the self/living expression of Patience that will in fact
empower oneself to become the directive principle of oneself and one’s world
instead of a victim to Time and one’s reactions to/towards it.
If one have a look at how
the Mind moves – it is erratic, chaotic and unpredictable when observing
thoughts and emotions that we deal with on a moment-to-moment basis throughout
the day. If one had not yet observed one’s thoughts and emotions (what
generally goes on in the Mind throughout the day) – I would suggest do so.
Taking a day and see for oneself how one can be from one moment to the next: how
often one change based on what thoughts and reactions (emotions and feelings)
gets activated within oneself. See, the mind ‘moves’ so fast – the human
awareness does not realise that it is thoughts / reactions on various
levels/dimensions of our consciousness that FIRST ACTIVATES and THEN one
participate / change / act. (One can
understand more about the relationship between awareness, consciousness and the
physical body in the Quantum Mind
Self Awareness Series with seeing, realising and understanding for self how
the Mind/Consciousness control our awareness).
Whereas with the Physical Body / this Physical Reality – movement
is constant, stable and predictable; and within this movement there is an deep
silence, yet an all-encompassing awareness of everything that constitutes the
physical body / this physical reality if/as one would stand equal to and one
with what is physical. With standing with one’s Awareness equal to and one with
the Physical – one’s awareness becomes the directive principle, through
decisions. Meaning, instead of one’s awareness always reacting to the Mind
based on how the Mind automatically activates that then determines how one
think / feel / act – the equation change to one’s awareness DIRECTING through
first assessing the moment and everything/everyone within it in equality and
oneness, making a decision with awareness and only then acting.
Now, there are two different realities at play here: the
Mind Reality and the Physical Reality. The Mind Reality moves in ‘quantum
time’ and the Physical Reality moves in space and time. The Mind Reality ‘quantum
time movement’ is measured by energy and the Physical Reality space-time
movement is measured by breath. Dependent on how much energy
(emotions/feelings) you access/generate – depends on how fast / slow the Mind
will move. Dependent on how slow / fast you breathe – depends on how slow /
fast the general condition of the body moves. One can essentially liken the
Mind’s movement as a lightning storm in the head-region of human beings and the
Physical Body’s movement as a river-movement within itself and also within
physical reality. So, one can imagine how the Lightning Storm of the Mind can ‘unsettle
the waters’ in the Physical Body / this Physical Reality – which is what we do
to ourselves most of the time, because our Awareness
is participating / possessed in/as the Lightning Storm of the Mind instead of
moving with and as the rivers of/as Physical space-time movement in physical
reality.
This in itself is quite a fascinating point, because: we
have our Awareness, Mind and Body. Now, this trinity exists in a ‘closed system’
as the physical body and we’re creating our relationship between the Mind and
the Body with our Awareness – our acceptance and allowance of participating in
and existing as the Mind in separation from the Physical. When one walk process
and slow down with breath / physical movement – one will see for oneself how
the thought comes up first, how the emotion comes up first that one’s awareness
then ‘follow’ and ‘become’ and so live out the thought/emotion. With process,
one can as the thought comes / as the emotion comes: already stop
participation, stop oneself from automatically following’ the thought and
emotion and CHANGE who / how one is
in a moment. Therefore, because of this relationship of our
awareness ‘following the Mind/pre-programmed Consciousness’ – we’re
deliberately, in a way, moving into and as the lightning storms of the
Mind/Consciousness, constantly and continuously ‘disturbing the waters of/as
the physical body’ / ‘the stable substance of/as the physical body’. Everyone
always ‘looking for / searching for peace, calm and stability’ – not seeing,
realising and understanding that it cannot be found in the Mind / Consciousness
‘quantum time energy lightning storms’ – but only in/as equality and oneness
with and as the physical body.
We’ll in the next post continue with how exactly to
be/become the living expression of/as Patience – with changing one’s
relationship in moments from the quantum time movement of the
Mind/Consciousness, to space and time movement of/as the Physical Body. How,
from here – the self/living expression of Patience will emerge.
