MOD LXV

Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady

MOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts.
if we are the agents of change that choose conflicted thoughts then we can easily get better by relying on and expressing the nature of our essence rather than relying on ideas that are not true. Obsessive thoughts are not an accident or a curse - they are choices - and like all addictive behaviors they seem to happen to us to justify the irresponsibility of thinking we have nothing to do with them and this can do nothing about them. Managing insanity wrongly presumes there is actually something to manage. This is unmanageability and lack of control as out-of-control.
Any insistence to maintain conflicted thoughts has the thought appear to impose itself on us. To claim we have nothing to do with it mirrors the claim there is nothing we can do about it. All of these conclusions are lies.
Responsibility, Freedom, and Choice are fundamental principles of mental health. There are no victims or insanity in reality. As Sentient Beings sensitivity is intelligence so we cannot be too smart for our own good - though we can dumb our experience down by narrowing the focus of our awareness to conclude the nature of truth as reality is only what we think.
Sobriety is recovery from symptomatic addictions induced by imagining fantasy is reality. Reactive, impulsive, and compulsive behaviors all fit into this category as they are based on a lie that lies have the power to become reality. Reality as an Infinite Source cannot be more or less than it is since it is not a quantity but the quality of perfect peace.
Emotional sobriety is sane living. Essence can seem unseen until understanding sees it does not need to be thought of to be essential for existence. We Know more than we think or mental anguish would be a normal disturbance and not feel uneasy. Pain tells us something is wrong. To misread this to mean run faster to escape, get over it, or feel better about it is to insist the problem causing the pain persists.
The denial of thoughts we don't think we are thinking will be equally balanced with the denial of things possible as impossibilities. What we think internally will be used to create circumstances we used to pretend our wrong thought is right.
Expect people to do what they do and things to happen as they happen. This is how things are despite what we think. Quickly the abundance of what is happening will exceed any expections we think we don't have.
Dissolution dissolves problems. There is no resolution needed once there is no problem. To think it possible to break from reality and then think more and more obsessive thinking proves we can make and have our own reality is to set a course of enormous complexity only to end where we started.
To see thoughts as imagined is to see thoughts clearly. There are no obstructions in clarity so there is nothing to get over, go through or feel better about.
Addiction relies on fighting imagination. What does not exist cannot be a problem, though we can apparently think otherwise.
Our conversation is about doing what we're doing to be causing the effects we are experiencing. Seen honestly addiction has no hold over us and cannot condemn us. Our thoughts, brain and ego cannot attack us since they are illusions. If imagination was reality it wouldn’t be imagined.
There can be no disillusion where illusions are seen as illusions. And there can be no solution while we insist on maintaining any delusional problem.
