There is no world independent of mind ! America is mind. Nepal is mind. Hell is mind. Heaven is mind. Your inner being attracts what you are, not what you desire! There is no past, there is no present, there is no future. There is only the eternal now! Those who integrate this wisdom into their life enjoy supreme contentment in life. The waking world merges into the dream world and the dream world merges into deep sleep and the cycle continues creating various planes of existence. Memory creates the delusion of past, and the power of imagination creates the delusion of future. In fact, these are all mind -- a pure hallucination. A life in enlightenment is coming out of this hallucination. World = Mind. Where you are now or will be in the future totally depends on your mind. What kind of thoughts surfaces to your conscious mind from the subconscious depends on your past impressions (Vasanas) and what kind of thoughts you entertain on daily basis is your pure choice and this pure choice dictates your destiny. Each thought is your karma and you are bound by your own karma! Last edited: 04-Jun-19 08:53 PM
