Keep Your Eyes On The Prize :)
by david on Monday 24th February 2020What are some of the big prizes the Science of the Mind offers us all? :) Happiness :) health (of mind :) the health of your body, I cannot guarantee) :) harmony :) and a much more heavenly life :) And if a lot more people can study :) and learn :) the science of the mind :) we can make a much more heavenly world :) for us all :) too :)
But what actually is happiness? :) What actually is a healthy mind? :) What’s harmony look like? :) And what might a much more heavenly life :) and world :) look like? :)
I was writing a lovely birthday card to one of my dearest best friends yesterday :) and I found myself writing about what happiness is :) as I was wishing them a happy birthday :) I figured if I’m wishing someone happiness :) I should really get to know what exactly it is I’m wishing them :) and how to go about creating it :) so I can explain it to them also :) and help them to get it too :) I found myself writing that I’ve been lucky enough to get the chance to learn a lot about happiness in my life :) and that I’ve realised happiness is humility :) Happiness is virtue :) Happiness is in giving :) compassion :) integrity :) transparency :) truthfulness :) honesty :) I don’t think I’d ever realised what happiness really is :) as clearly as I now understand it until when I wrote these truths out to my best friend :)
Happiness is a process :) It’s not an outcome :) In the end, I summarised it to my best friend by just saying happiness is goodness :) I told my best friend how much good work I can recognise they’ve been doing in their life for a long time now :) and I wished them happiness on their special day :) It felt really great to contribute such a clear understanding of exactly what happiness is :) and how to do it :) i.e. how to go about creating it :)
Unfortunately, a lot of the time people haven’t known about the things I’m sharing through the Science of the Mind… too much of the time people haven’t understood… and in the absence of clear understandings, that guide people to think good, speak good, and do good, misunderstandings misguide people to think bad, speak bad, and do bad stuff.
Knowing :) and understanding :) the truths I’m sharing through this education :) and training :) programme :) means we get good guidance :) on how we should be living our lives :) and what we should be doing with our days :) When we know and understand in a clear and comprehensive way :) we know exactly what to do :) to get happy :) a healthy mind and heart :) harmony :) and a heavenly life :) We need to be virtuous :) We need to learn to be really good :) We need to learn to care :) and train ourselves in the skills :) knowledges :) and experiences :) of how to be really caring :) kind :) and compassionate :) When we become like this :) we naturally become so much more giving :) and generous :) in whatever we do :)
Rather than thinking about what we have ourselves :) we learn to think about what we can do to help others :) along with how we can help ourselves equally also :) Rather than thinking about what we can get for ourselves :) we train to think about what we can give to others :) as well as being equally giving to ourselves too :) In other words :) we train to forget about what we have :) and instead remember to be helpful to others and ourselves equally :) We study to learn :) and understand thoroughly :) that whatever we get is so much less important than being giving :) sharing :) whatever we can :) from the bottom of our heart :) with everyone :) including ourselves equally :)
The point of what I’m doing here is to help you understand :) and activate your potential :) that your mind :) everyone’s mind :) works so much better when we fill them up with good things :) good processes :) good habits :) There’s a science to how our minds work :) simple causes we can reliably learn to put in place :) that will dependably get us the results we want :) in that our mind can and usually will get happy :) and healthy :) when we fill them up with goodness :) Just like there’s a simple science to how our bodies work too :) if we fill them up full of good healthy meals :) with lots of vegetables :) and other good food and drinks that contain healthy vitamins and minerals :) if we look after them very well :) with regular blood tests and health screenings :) we’ll usually enjoy a healthy body :) that will live a long time :) and give us a healthy :) functional :) long life :)
Why do you think I’ve done all these blog posts? :) And this entire training programme? :) With all its resources? :) That has taken me hours upon hours to create for us all? :) Over the course of days :) weeks :) months :) and more than a year now? :)
I’m doing this for all of us :) for our collective happiness :) I can sustain and keep going with it :) because it makes me happy in the doing of it :) It actually energises me :) gives me something important to do :) something that feels so worthwhile to me :) and I keep growing in motivation :) goodness :) energy :) enthusiasm :) and happiness :) Giving all this :) and more :) that I’m doing for you :) as well as me :) is happiness for me :) It’s so :) so happy :) for me to give :) and share :) with us all :) in this way :) Doing all these blogs :) and the videos :) and meditations :) and everything :) gives me a healthy mind :) It creates harmony in my mind :) and life :) as I share peaceful :) relaxing :) nonviolent :) compassionate :) truths :) directions :) and strategies :) with all of us :) It trains me to be more harmonious :) to follow my own advice :) so I can stay silent during the next argument with anyone :) I even ended up praising :) and getting really positive :) with one of my best friends during an argument :) a disagreement :) just the other day :) and it helped end the disagreement :)
I was talking to another of my best friends the other day about the fact that their happiness isn’t really theirs :) It’s ours :) It belongs to all of us :) Because there isn’t really any ‘me’ :) There’s only ‘we’ :) as my best friend had recently been telling me also :) The idea of any one of us all on our own, without anyone else, is impossible… we couldn’t exist… We need each other :) We all need to give :) and receive help :) I explained how, many people think and see themselves and their lives from a ‘me’ perspective, and because of this they can easily get misguided and think about only their own happiness, only their own prosperity, only their own needs and wants and feelings, and their own troubles. Because of that misunderstanding, people can end up taking and hoarding, instead of giving and sharing, harming, instead of helping. I explained how the truth is we’re really a ‘we’ :) a team :) We’re a great big team :) a great big family :) all of us :) We need to work together :) because our happiness is shared :) our prosperity is shared :) and our troubles are shared also.
If we’re going to create an era of unprecedented prosperity :) which we are :) we’re going to need to do it :) and make it happen :) together :) And we’ll all reap the benefits together too :) We can all enjoy abundance :) Abundance of goodness is a prize :) something valuable :) precious :)
Thinking from a team perspective is a prize :) that will increase all our happinesses :) We’re a great big family :) all of us :) human beings :) Thinking good thoughts about our family is a prize :) that will make things healthier in our minds :) and our families :) Speaking good :) and doing good :) are prizes too :) that are wholesome investments :) that will grow prosperity :) and abundance :) in our family :) Understanding :) caring :) and being generous :) are prizes :) that will only grow the goodness :) in our minds :) and our lives :) Our hearts are fertile soil :) but we need to plant the seeds of love :) meaning we need to grow pure-hearted goodness in our minds :) and nurture all these good things sensitively :) and caringly :) if we’re going to grow lush :) self-sufficient :) vegetable gardens :) that can grow :) and spread in our world :) and become a beautiful wealth that can feed us all :)
Humility :) happiness :) virtue :) giving :) compassion :) integrity :) transparency :) truthfulness :) honesty :) These are all good things we actively need to do :) on a daily basis :) These good things are all processes :) not outcomes :) We need to train :) All these goodnesses and more are healthy for our mind :) They create harmony :) and a more heavenly life :) for ourselves :) as well as others :)
When more people :) or even all people :) gain the opportunity to learn :) and get educated :) in the Science of the Mind :) there can be a lot more happy :) healthy :) harmonious :) and heavenly people in this world :) People like this :) tend to look smiling :) look peaceful :) look relaxed :) look calm :) Best friends like this :) take a lot less :) and give a lot more :) A world filled with people who’ve learned to need and want so much less material stuff :) and instead who wisely focus in their minds and hearts on growing uplifting wholesome wholehearted processes in their habits each day :) like giving :) like pure-hearted and innocent goodness :) will look so much simpler and more satisfied :)
A more heavenly life :) looks simpler :) When we learn to have so much less :) and do so much less :) we can take so much less :) and give so much more :) in such a more relaxing way too :)
As each one of us learns and trains to make this sort of satisfying simplicity a reality in our lives :) this beautiful healing process can spread around the world :) and many more best friends :) sisters and brothers :) so many more of our wonderful family :) of human beings :) all around the planet :) can come to know :) understand :) experience :) and enjoy :) a more heavenly :) and satisfyingly simple :) life :) People can eat so many more vegies :) and so much less meat :) When everyone lives so much more simply :) and learns to live free from misunderstandings :) hate :) greed :) people and animals :) and even the environment :) won’t have so much to fear anymore :) there’ll be a lot less worries going around :) There’ll be a sense of community :) a sense that we can trust our sisters and brothers :) that they won’t hurt us :) or try to take advantage of us for their own benefit :) They’re on our side :) on our team :) They’ve got our back :)
A more heavenly world :) that I can see coming in the future :) for all human beings :) and animals :) as well as the environment :) is filled with such more sensitive :) caring :) and wise people :) Everyone can learn this :) and train :) and grow in these good qualities :) these excellent processes :) these perfect habits in our hearts :) A person, without education, cannot know, understand, and activate their potential for further growth of skills, knowledge, and experiences. They cannot contribute anywhere near as much as they could, if they’re given a good education, come to know and understand, and get given the opportunities needed to grow to their potential :) The more abundance that’s arising in the world :) is creating even more abundance :) People are learning :) The younger generations stand on the shoulders of our elders :) and we keep taking it further :)
We need people to receive an abundance of all these good things :) so they can prosper :) and thrive :) and share their abundance with us all too :) All the good things I’m sharing with us all through this science :) is my contribution :) of so many prizes :) so many things to be prized :) Keep your eyes on this training :) on this profound education :) Keep your eyes on the processes :) your habits :) and check out how good they are :) If you find anything bad, shed it, let it go, drop it from your habits, and forgive and forget about it :) And when you find good things :) keep your eyes on them :) value them :) nurture them :) appreciate them :) invest in them :) be satisfied with them :) and they will grow and grow :) until you’ve got your own ‘self-sufficient vegie patch’ of goodness :) with more than enough goodness to go around for yourself personally J as well as to share with others too :)
