Escape from the mind web

Today, we come back again to a subject we discussed yesterday and the day before. This subject is the web we wrap ourselves in, everyone of us, without exception. You know, human mind is like a spider web whose threads are made of all our troubles, problems and challenges in life that cause doubts, worries and fears in us all the time.

We said that when the fly gets caught in the web, the solution is not to resist and attempt hardly to escape from the web. This is useless, because the more it tries, the more trapped it gets. The same thing applies to human being when being trapped in one or many difficult situations. There is no solution in anger, worry, frustration or fear.

Because the more you engage yourself in these negative attitudes, the more opaque and dark your view becomes. What to do then ?

As already suggested, one part of the solution is to relax and become still. In fact, just like the fly, you have no choice at all. Whatever it does, it will remain trapped in the web, as you will be in your mind.

Another part of the solution is to recognize that you have not the power to escape by yourself, and to surrender to something greater than you, a power which is in you that knows everything and can do anything.

If the fly stops struggling and becomes still, chances are that in time, its body would become a little bit heavy, be droped from the threads that maintain it prisoner and get free. Unfortunatly, the fly cannot think this way.

In the case of human being, things are a little bit different. Man is not physically prisoner, but mentally, because he thinks. The thoughts he helds in his mind are the roots of all his troubles. When he struggles and resists against the threats (thoughts) of his mind related to his problems, this becomes an attack, and attack implies separation. You would not attack your Self if you knew that it is you. No.

In a word, when you resist something, that means you think it is separate from you. But it is not. Nothing is separate from you. You are everything around you, no exception, even if you don't think so. But, because you don't know it or believe it, you attack it by resisting and struggling against it.

But the truth is, nothing is separate from you. Nothing. We are all One, and resisting against something is resisting against yourself. That's why you suffer, because in your resistance you are attacking your own Self, and this attack is a denyal of the love which is due to yourself.

When you remember that we are all One, including everybody, everything and every circumstance, that Life loves you and is never against you, that everything that happens to you is for your highest good, you realize that the only relationship you must have with Life is the one of love and gratitude, instead of resistance and struggle.

When you reach this point, Life, Love, God, All That Is, supports you. All the threads that kept you captive are transformed into love and you are free. You are here to come back to Yourself to Love, which is who you really are.

Be grateful, therefore, for anything that comes your way, because it is part of You...
