Caught in Our Mind

“There are many in your world who would yet perceive spirituality as a way to get out of the place in which they find themselves, not understanding that they can be nowhere save than in their own mind.  (“The Way of Transformation,” The Way of Mastery, Chapter 20, Page 244)

We are caught in our mind. We can’t escape by any known means (though we can escape from our ego, if given enough motivation).

There are some frequent illusions in spiritual literature to trying to escape by moving house, going elsewhere in the world, or retreating to the quiet countryside. Most writers are making the point that these attempts to save ourselves simply don’t work, because we take our agitated mind with us.

The only way is to heal the mind, and that is not entirely up to our personal self. We need God’s help. And we may also know that Jesus’ healing touch is available to us as well.

When we open our heart, not our mind, to love, then miraculously our mind is healed as well. We don’t have to move to the countryside after all. We have the peace we have sought.

  1. I am drawn more to connect with nature and the Earth 🌎 We can create green spaces even in smaller micro-environments with plants or go out deep into nature’s mountains and forest’s. They all want to heal us.

  2. Indeed, we don’t have to move to the country side! It’s all here now! My husband often says, “Wherever you go, you will take yourself with you!” Very wise! Thank you, always helpful, enlightening! ❤️🌸🧡🌼💜🌻
