The Fight Against Resistance(Intro piece)

!The fight against resistance.

Here I am a conscious mind during the 21st century operating a technological gadgets which my ancestors would marvel at. Yet, daily I am plagued with the battle of the mind and all the Resistance that comes with it .It is a strange feeling knowing you’re on the end of the ledge of greatness ,but your warm bed is calling far more loudly to you . Could it be, that the feeling of hunger in your overall attitude is lacking. And as a result you procrastinate and make excuses all because you are scared off, the what if? What if I have to stay up all night? What if I won’t eat for the next couple of hours whilst I master this skill? What if my best efforts are not enough? What if people look at me in pity and disgust at my propositions and thoughts? What if I actually create something worthwhile and I might actually have to live up to the responsibility and accountability? What if I have to cut off some friends and family in order to attain some of my goals? What if I upset my superiors and the establishment with my plans? What if I die before I ever get so see the fruits of my labour? What if everything gets taken away from me after I have worked hard for it? What if me changing in what I perceive to be for the better causes havoc and ‘disruptions’ around people I care about ?What if I live up to potential and actually manifest everything in which I invasion? What if?

What if? WOW, such a damning word. It seems to lack the essence of seeking the transcendent direct experience. We can only truly know through direct experience and even that doesn’t measure up too much in the divine cosmic scheme and against cosmic/universal truth. So all you are is a result of all that has ever been. Now looking at the human story with all its beautifully convoluted details, we can extrapolate that the spectrum for human existence is vast and wide, some may even say eternal.
With that in mind it means you have a whole human story to learn from and draw from. You can even seek to transcend that and do what has never been done before. But all of that can only happen if you START. That is the golden egg in this recipe, you have to get started and get moving. From the moment your father inseminates your mom with his mobile sperm and 24 chromosomes you or what you consider to be you starts moving. From your mothers ovaries through her fallopian tubes you’re moving. From the moment you reach your moms womb you are still moving. When you are set in her amniotic fluid your cells are constantly moving. From your when your heart starts beating and your brain starts growing you are moving. All the necessary Constance involved your conception and being revolved around movement. Your ancestors only lived and survived because of movement. The still river is a stale river, the moving river provides life. Observation of nature suggests only through movement can we survive, MOVEMENT IS LIFE.

This is the ultimate counter to résistance and that which seeks to stop you from walking into reality opposed to being passive observer of your reality. It is movement, and there is no way around it, and even if there was it would still require your movement. Maybe not your physical body, but your mind will do. Imagine that, you can move your mind and move in your mind before you even have to shift or move a body part. Once you premise the existence of your whole being and conscious vessel as means to move your mind with the understanding that moving is life. Then there is no excuse or reason as to why you should ever procrastinate again. Movement is life, hesitation, indecision and stagnation equals death.
Back to the what if’s…
The real question should be why not? I mean seriously why not? Imagine for a moment what is the worst that could happen if you manifested all your dreams and wishes through your own might in your own little aspect of this matrix?

What is interesting and amazing is that you have this organ between your ears which somehow gives you the ability to simulate your future, and future scenarios. Whatever it is, it gives you the ability to factor all sorts of probability equations and somehow come up with a coherent vivid picture and story through your mind’s eye. Meaning you can literally see your own future and all the possibilities which lay ahead granted you make the right series of decisions. With all that in mind ,you have to ask yourself what is the worst most exaggerated scenario and failure that you can simulate ?How bad is it? Is it so bad that it is not worth the journey and the direct experience you have towards the road and its ending? And here is another thing, this worst case scenario and failure that you have imagined. Is it so bad that you cannot plan ahead with precautions ahead? Is it not better to actually go through the process of moving and getting started? This is the true conundrum and the core crux to the battle royal against your own mind.
You face a fierce opponent, he/she is legend in this game of psychological warfare. Resistance is what I call her/him and she is one mean son of a biscuit. It knows you inside out, it knows about your fears, your worst nightmares, your urges and desires, the subconscious ones too. It moves in the periphery of the dark edges of your mind. Always looking, always whispering, and always laughing at your futile attempts to checkmate it once and for all. It’s a devious player and does not mind to use low blows, like hunger, tiredness, pain, sleep deprivation and fatigue against you.
But fear not, for even the fiercest foes have their weakness. And for you the journey towards victory is not far sighted, but it is a victory that is vague and slippery to the mind like a dream during REM sleep. You remember the blueprint occasionally, like how you used force yourself out of bed in your younger years and force yourself to go out into the cold and go catch public transport to school. All those times you forced yourself to go to all the sports practises you ever did, but hated and yet still got it done. All those times you were pressed for particular test that you had to understand complex details and concepts in a short period of time under immense pressure? All those were examples of moments were you where sparring with your mental self and that thing we call resistance fought hard against you ,but you made the decision to start moving and thus you gutted it out and came out the victor .
So the question is not what if? The question is why not? Seriously, why not? Simulate the worst case scenario in your mind and consider how much not moving at all towards any of the realities you choose will cost you? If you are not the conscious owner of your own flesh vehicle. Consciously making decisions towards your own future, then who is? Or what is? And does it have your best interests above your sovereign self?
ONLY YOU know the answer to these questions ,only YOU can beat the resistance in your mind , because when it’s all said and done all you have is your mind ,and since the universe is mental your mind would a terrible thing to waste .Like my brother Bruce Lee said ,”Be water my friend.”


Be fluid in mind like water and move like the river, for movement is life.
