Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady
Our discussion is not partisan or an academic or scientific thesis, medical diagnosis, prognosis, philosophy, prescription, discipline, or treatment. Based on experience we do not propose or oppose any person, place, or thing: real or imagined - nor is our discourse promoting rituals or any religious service.
Listening is a demonstration of interest and not a replacement for taking direction from responsible parties you rely on or are under the care of including professionals.
Consideration is a contemplative awakened meditation. An Absolute State of Knowing Awareness is simple as it does not change. To think thoughts can change nature’s essence is a mistake we are free to make. Mental disorders like anxious disorders reflect this mis-formed, misinformed thinking. Shrinking from rather than facing backward choices increases their dramatic impact. Insisting on resisting mental effects creates pressure that is depressing - insuring they persist.
We Know We Know and are Aware We are Aware. There is no wrong, fight, fear, lies, ego or insanity in Truth as Reality. Our natural Essence is essential and how we know so well when something’s wrong. Anxiety is stress from thoughts under pressure. Pain is evidence something’s wrong. Trying to feel better about or get over reactive, impulsive or compulsive urges makes matters worse. Obsessive thoughts are sick choices we can think condemn us. Choices are the will to want. The right to freely think does not make what we think right. Like them or not consequences reflect our thoughts as a mirror reflects images.
Talking and thinking to our thoughts creates more thoughts thinking of themselves - not our self. Thinking defines what we think not who or what we are. Choices to think are actions we take, something we do. We cannot be what we do even while imagining thoughts are true and create “our own” reality.
To any degree untrue thoughts are believed true we lie and manifest unhealthy, ill-at-ease, inner-conflicted emotional turmoil. Lies effects will appear to happen to us whenever we irresponsibly act like we have nothing to do with them. Feeling lonely is an accurate assessment of disconnected, baseless thinking. To think we have no choice is the suicidal death wish there is nothing we can do about them - as though we don’t exist. To create a cause and deny the effect is how the vicious mental cycle of obsessive thoughts - central to all symptomatic addictions as compulsive behaviors - chronically restarts.
I'm no Einstein, but Albert was and along with many other notables he said: “You cannot fix a problem with the same thinking that created it.”
Symptomatic recovery does not cure the obsessive mental illness - it clears the looking glass so the problem can be seen. Emotional sobriety is sane living. Wrong as wrong is right. Resting in Peace on earth does not require we first be buried in it.
Little, if any, belief, faith, hope, or trust in what is Absolute is required since any reliance on the stability of Reality is confirmed as applied now. Awe and inspiration are the actualization and realization that all that is possible is happening here, now, for all that is and all that are - always in all ways.
Thoughts naturally align with our knowing awareness even while the obsession to pretend, they won’t and don’t, seems to consume our thinking’s attention. Stability like serenity is assured to express the abundance of our essential loving essence. This assurance remains even when we feel lost in tangled thoughts thinking otherwise. Think about That.
Knowing’s nature is Absolute - it is neither negotiable, occasional or optional.
There is no doubt where there is no question.
Sanity is the natural human state of thought as a product of Truth as Reality.

Emotional sobriety is the daily reprieve from induced insanity. The possibility to think wrong thoughts are right is constant - since we are free to choose what and how we think. Addiction’s promise suggests that the problem will one day be the absolute solution. This absolution never comes, since it is a lie; it is impossible.
If all things possible are possible then thinking we shouldn’t be doing what we're doing, while doing what we’re doing, leads to more complications and confusion. Having things as they are is to have something that can be let go of. When it comes to imagining wrong thoughts will one day be right the smashing blow is facing delusion as nothing more than what and how we think of it, now. We know what is right which is a guidance system to know what is wrong. If we didn’t know better we wouldn’t suffer from thinking we don’t.
All that happens, happens in the present. Now is where problems are manifest, effects are felt, and honest awareness dissolves delusion.
The unholy trinity:
Obsessive thinking is a lie that we imagine:
1. We have nothing to do with it, thus:
2. There is nothing we can do about it, and so:
3. We can do no more than excuse the same sorry, sick thoughts and subsequent misbehaviors.
This model for mental addiction supposedly resurrects an idea otherwise dead that thoughts have a life of their own that can operate against us, intrude on us and can hold us hostage whenever we feel stuck in them. No so - think again.
Lies only seem to exist in brains - specifically the brain of the thinker promoting and protecting any illusion(s) as reality by refining a story used as an excuse to defend against the impossibility of achieving the fairy tale whatsoever. We can think we oppose Truth while Truth is the provider of though not a product of thought. While we are certainly free to think we can deny Truth and Reality our attempted opposition has no impact whatsoever on either - especially since they are the same - while our fractured mentality is impacted and broken down dramatically, further fracturing into smaller and smaller fractional states that are impossible to eliminate as long as we subdivide our thoughts hoping to escape.
We Know We Know.
We Are Aware We Are Aware.
We Are as We Are.
Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse the Law and order of the universe. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and so contribute to any ailments. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment leading to others as long as it is improperly diagnosed - any treatment will perpetuate its contagion.
Principles affirm our indivisible nature. Sharing principles affirms and confirms our indivisibility as our nature. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is a choice.
Absolute Intelligence, Peace and Silence is Nature's nature since It does not change. The nature of nature is naturally our nature. Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible jibbersh of ignorance - not reality.
