The Individualism Is A Fragment & A Pattern

**Note: Truth does not always sound pleasant. If the mind is not really peaceful now, it might not be a perfect moment to listen to this podcast, one has to be aware of the emotions or reactions that can block one from listenING ATTENTIVELY and with HUMILITY. This talk is a meditation practice. What one needs to do is listen attentively, without getting stuck in words, examine the mind in silence, not agree or disagree, just look at the mind as it is. Doing so is already part of true meditation.

Look around this world,

Look around people around you.

If one really pays attention to how people behave,

It's not so difficult to notice people are living in their own patterns,

Their own thoughts,

Their own illusions.

They always project according to their own image in their own mind and impose that image to you.

They don't really see this moment at all.

They always translate,

Interpret through their own ideas,

Own thoughts.

And you can't really talk to them because they are isolated by themselves in their own loops.

And if you play with their loops,

It is dangerous because you can be trapped in their loops.

When the mind is running in their loops,

The mind is actually trying as much as possible to make other into the loop.

That's the danger and also the destructive power of a mind,

Isolated by itself.

To live life with such a radical change is to live life without being trapped in any loops,

Which means that can you stand alone?

Being alone means that the mind is never trapped in any loops.

Look around this society,

It is extremely individual.

But this individual is a fragment.

Nobody stands alone.

Everybody is trapped in their own loops and their own loops is trying to make other people into their loops.

So there's competition,

There's aggression,

There's conflict.

But nobody stands alone.

Everybody is trapped in a fragment,

Which is me,

The self,

The ego.
