Which mental space do you spend the most time in?

The house of the mind encompasses numerous rooms. 

Certain rooms are designated as "greed," while others are designated as "fear," "worry," "jealousy," "happiness," "like and dislike" and various other labels. 

Additionally, individuals often categorize their emotional states as either positive or negative, such as feeling good or feeling horrible on a given day.

Is it common for individuals to transition between several states of consciousness during the day without maintaining a concentrated state within their inner being? 

Why not redirect your focus towards the unchanging amid the changing, and consider shifting your attention towards the center? 

Instead of moving in the direction of the disturbance, why not move in the direction of the person who is aware of it?

You are able to remain in your center while avoiding disturbances in this way.

One must cultivate mindfulness and discern the mental space in which their focus resides at any given moment. If one finds oneself dissatisfied or uncomfortable in a certain mental space, it is advisable to acknowledge this awareness and consciously shift one's attention to a more favorable mental space.

The crucial aspect lies in cultivating mindfulness and introspection on the space one currently occupies or has occupied in recent days or weeks.

In which cognitive domain have I been traversing? Have I resided within the cognitive domain commonly referred to as the state of unhappiness, and am I currently experiencing a sense of satisfaction throughout my tenure in this particular mental space?

It is important to acknowledge that consciousness remains constant in the ever-changing nature of existence. It serves as an immovable entity within the realm of movement, wherein thoughts and the physical body undergo constant transformation. 

The individual possesses a state of pure consciousness, wherein upon becoming associated with the contents of a certain room, they lose self-awareness and assume the energetic characteristics present within the room.

The sage is known to spend approximately two-thirds of their lifespan in a state of heightened consciousness, focusing on the introspective realm of observation. The remaining one-third of their existence is dedicated to engaging in the external realm, actively participating in the intricate dynamics of the world's events and experiences. 

Developing the ability to distinguish between consciousness and the objects of consciousness is a crucial skill to acquire. Acquire the ability to develop conscious awareness.

"Do You Believe or Question Every Thought That Comes to You?"

Ah, dear friend, the winds of thought are many, and their voices and images are loud and relentless. Yet, do not be deceived by their clamor. The thoughts you entertain are not your own; they are the echoes of others, whispers that drift from past generations, from teachers, parents, strangers, and even from the world around you.  But these thoughts, these fleeting phantoms, do not define you. They are borrowed, like a leaf carried by a current, pulled into your mind and momentarily resting there before the next gust of wind takes it away. You see, thoughts are not anchored in truth. They come and go like the clouds in the sky. One moment, they are shaped and thick with meaning; the next, they dissolve into nothingness.  If you stop to look at them, you will realize that thoughts themselves cannot be trusted—they are not fixed or permanent. They float by, like the passing seasons, changing their form and shifting their hue. And just like clouds, they hide the vast, unchanging ...

"The Power of Stillness: How to Build Inner Strength and Stay Centered in a Chaotic World"

  Ah, young seekers, gather round. You are on the cusp of understanding something profound, something that, if you grasp it, will change the way you see the world forever. So, listen closely, for this isn't the kind of wisdom you find in your textbooks, but something much older, deeper, and more powerful.  Imagine life as an ancient theater where the same timeless drama has unfolded since the beginning of time. But here's the secret: it’s always the same play, always the same drama, though the faces of the actors change. The characters' names shift with every generation, and the costumes are different, but the story, the themes, and the struggles are all the same. Birth, death, love, hate, joy, sorrow, victory, defeat… on and on. The drama doesn’t end. It never truly does.  Now, in this world, in this third-dimensional existence, we live caught between the forces of duality—the dance of opposites. Right and wrong, light and dark, success and failure, pleasure and pai...

In this fast-paced and constantly evolving world, we often overlook the simple yet powerful practices that can help us lead a healthier, more fulfilled life.  As you journey toward mindfulness and self-discovery, Master Zhen offers these six daily practices designed to cultivate inner peace, strengthen your body, and nourish your spirit. Let us explore them together. 1. Rise with the Sun: Begin Your Day with Meditation and Gratitude As you open your eyes, welcome the quiet morning. Before the world's demands begin, take a few moments to center yourself free from urgency or expectation.

Repeat this cycle several times (as best as you can without overexerting yourself), letting each breath grow more profound and more calming while your thoughts gradually sl...
