All spiritual journeys must be based on mind control
in order to be effective. Buddha knew this, Jesus knew
this, the Sufi mystics knew this, the Christian saints
knew this, and we must each learn it in our own way.
This is the reason that I have dedicated over a hundred
pages of Part Three of the Finding God On The Trian Story
titled Mind Control - Control Of Consciousness on the
techniques needed for successful mind control.
It took me a lifetime to come to this conclusion, finally
expending a good portion of my spiritual effort working
on marshaling the confusion within my own mind into
a workable coherent effort, so I can fully connect with God
and my own internal divinity.
The garden of the mind must be tended in order to create
change in our lives, as the note below conveys.
Through meditation, prayer, and ongoing reflection
we must find the thought root that has grown as a seed
in the concrete of our own consciousness,
only to produce a tree that now threatens to crack
our life foundation.
If you are feeling that some change must be undertaken
and the new seed planted, or that just some weeding
and pruning is called for, the Affirmative Thought
below may help create the change you are seeking.
WORKING FROM WITHIN
All change happens in our minds and
thoughts first – where we must tend
to the seed we planted that grew into
the circumstance we now encounter –
the life we now live – the emotions
we now feel.
All successful change occurs as we
clear away the weeds in our mental
garden, prune, or redirect the existing
thoughts, or when required, tenderly
cut back what exists to clear the way
for a new approach or perspective
to take root.
All lasting change is worked from within
as we learn to adroitly navigate our
consciousness – pruning and planting
as needed, lovingly tending the blooms
of authentic purposeful life – forever
admiring our garden within.
