Are Our Problems Real ?!

Are Our Problems Real ?!

" All problems are illusions of the mind ! "

" Focus your attention on the now and tell me what problem you have at this moment . "

" I am not getting any answer because it is impossible to have a problem when your attention is fully in the Now ! A situation need to be dealt with or accepted ! Why make is a problem ? "

The above statements were taken from a book by Eckhart Tolle .

Read it carefully and then don't rush to respond immediately .

Wait ! Ponder and think , reflect or contemplate .

If the above statements by Eckhart Tolle are real , then it is mind blowing !

It will alter your whole world view of life and living !

That is no small matter !

In fact , that is the whole problem that we are having and dragging around !

Once , we can let go of all such self created problems , then life and living becomes a joy !

We get back our lost paradise !

We simply always get identified with so many things  in life .

I am a man, son , father , brother , Indian , German , Hindu , Muslim , and endless other such identities!

As I identify with any of them , I become attached to it . I associate with it . I link with it .

I actually become it !!

I am  now a Buddhist ! I am now a French man ! I am a Muslim ! A Hindu !

By my association and identity , I have become that entity !!

I , now am a Hindu ! I now belong to about 900 million such people who also call themselves by such an identity !

In that large group of people , there are all sorts of them !!

A full spectrum of human beings !

From the best to the worst , all are and can be found in  such a large mass of people !!

Now , I have adopted and become part of them !

I act and react in that name ! 

I will hold my head high or low according to their behaviour patterns !

Let me tell , there is nothing wrong or right here !

I simply cannot handle or be responsible for all their behaviours !

Even , my own behaviour sometimes  surprises me !!

So , identity is an amazing entity !

Where does it all happen ?!

In our mind ! That is it !

In the present moment , the mind is unable to play it's games !

As the mind is unable to react , you become very peaceful and will be free of problems !

We simply attend to issues that need our attention .

Life and living becomes a blissful reality !

That is all for now .

Take care. Love.

Amar.
