Are we Schizophrenic?

May 14, 2018 by admin Leave a Comment

“Most people are so distracted by their thoughts, so identified with the voices in their heads, they can no longer feel the aliveness within them. To be unable to feel the life that animates the physical body, the very life that you are, is the greatest deprivation that can happen to you.” Eckhart Tolle (from The Power of Now)

So we are all suffering from a mild to sever Schizophrenia. The person plugged into his iPhone music is a metaphor for minds wired to its thought. As infants we are given these wireless mind plugs, and according to our conditioning, we are given stations to listen to. We become stressed when the signal isn’t strong. We become psychic when all we can get is static on this collective mind. Here we listen to our story over and over again.

AIM is a website where I share my Dharma Insights in my everyday mind. My daily experiences are metaphors that point to the Truth that is One. Paths are many, but the Dharma is One. I invite you to walk with me on my journey. I also invite you to enter into creative dialogue with the post, for then we push it forward and get some traction in our life.
