The Whole Universe is Within Your Mind
Talk about a mental representation.
The entire universe is represented within your mind.
That's what young ghetto toughs mean when they say, "Represent!"
It's really just a matter of filling in the details.
It is our destiny to have our minds mirror existence.
as our minds mirror existence, our conciousness becomes the consciousness of existence.
At that point, it makes no difference if you see something "in the world" and that's how it enters your mind, or if you see it first in your mind. As a mirror of existence, the birth of happening occurs in both locations.
Once these details are attended to, you are a full shareholder in the creation of inner and outer reality.
it is generally what is meant by the saying, "see it, believe it, achieve it."
increasingly, your ability to visualize realities, results in realities being manifested.. first within your mind, and then, as your energy is loosened in action, upon the world at large. In this way, true transformation occurs.
After all, the human world and human experience is one of action and interaction, usually based upon some form of communication, whether that be from self to self, or self to others, or world to us, or us to world, that's how it happens.
and so, true transformation occurs when the "keys" to understanding are unlocked, however that may occur, however, it is my belief that the most efficient way to unlock understanding is with a locksmith. I am speaking of one who has trained their mind, and absorbed existence and harmonized their inner world with the outer, such that it mirrors existence. At that point, they can become the literal consciousness of existence, and speak from such a perspective, moving to and fro, there and here, taking on the understanding of the indivdiual they communicate with, clearing the path to their vision and enhancing their understanding, through clarifying their inner experience to also mirror that of existence, thus facilitating a resonate communication with others, such that understanding is "unlocked.
much of our reality is made up of "tools" be they writing implements, transportation devices, items to dig into and impregnate the soil, or to educate, cloth, or provide space for some activity. yet, in the final analysis, the grand playground, the causal factor, is idea, for the most part.
I've heard it said that Yoga is training of the mind. It uses the body, but it is of the mind. Yoga in fact has been said to mean, "a system of exercises for attaining bodily or mental control and well-being". but, i've heard it said that "yoga" can mean also "practice" or "a practice" whatever it may be, that achives harmony, insight and growth through any discipline.
I like to think of the ox herding series as a good representation of any practice of striving to attain. We must first control ourselves. seek that part in us, be it wisdom, control, desire, intent, passion, betterment.. whatever it may be. find it, get hold of it, tame it, refine it, move with it, and then, loosen it, such that it exists, refined, perfected, free, and we are released to become that much more complete through it's every evolving practice.
ox herding can be an analogy for our groping to achive a mirror condition of mind and existence. existence is a representation of our minds, and vice versa.
seeking the ox.
