7-20-12 The six thieves
Our six thieves are our ability to see, hear, taste, feel, our body and our mind.
These are what drives our desires, attachments, and our perception which left unchecked and unchanged will hurt us and make us unhappy, depressed, and all sorts of human maladies. I looked up the synonyms for malady (ailment, bug, complaint, complication, condition, disorder, illness, infirmity, disease, sickness, trouble). We, as a race of humans, have become complacent and far to willing to accept our condition as what is.
The good news is that we also have a spiritual mind that we can choose to access and use to reverse all the effects of our maladies. Unhappiness and letting our thieves steal our natural joy need not be. It takes the sorting out process to keep what you want and to discard what you don’t want. We are in control and if it does not feel like you are in control, start by going within and choose just one thought to re-think and change to begin the clearing out and purifying process toward true happiness.
Just take a look at the consciousness of the world. In the sixty thousand years we have been on this earth the human mind with all it’s education and knowledge is still in a pickle. The way of the world is not getting us there. It’s going to take something else. I’m proposing another way along with many others who have and are telling us there is another, better way. If you do not do this, whatever you know will turn into empty theories and be of no benefit; not beneficial to you nor to others, they will remain empty theories.
