"Break Free From the Mind's Cycle of Creation, Karma, and Resolutions"



Listen closely, dear students, for today, I reveal a truth that has been hidden for ages—a truth that will awaken you to the very nature of existence and the essence of life itself. Simple yet profoundly deep, it is this:

The mind creates its own problems, and then, driven by fear, the consequences of its actions, and an instinctive need for balance and control, the same mind relentlessly seeks to solve them. Though unseen, this cycle shapes the way we experience reality.

To illuminate this, let me share a story. Picture yourself as a traveler on a vast, open highway. The wind rushes past you, the road stretches endlessly before you, and you feel the exhilaration of speed, the music thumping, and the thrill of racing toward your destination.

But in your haste, you are not mindful of your actions. You feel invincible until the sharp wail of sirens pierces the air. You glance in the rearview mirror, and the flashing red lights pull you over.

At that moment, the excitement fades, replaced by the realization that you’ve created a problem by not being mindful of your actions. The same mind that drove you forward, now confronted with the consequences, must find a way to resolve the situation. This cycle—creation, karma, and resolution—unfolds in large and small ways, shaping our reality experience without us even noticing.

Now, in that moment, the very mind that urged you to speed begins to panic. This mind, which drove you to break the law, is now consumed with worry. 

"What if I get a ticket? What if I have to pay a fine? What will others think of me?" It begins to spin stories, seeking ways to escape the consequences.

 Perhaps you think of excuses or try to charm your way out of the situation. You may even try to negotiate, convince, or rationalize. But all the while, the same mind that created this problem desperately tries to fix it.

This is the nature of the mind: it creates dilemmas and then becomes consumed by them, endlessly chasing solutions.

 Yet, ask yourself, Why does the mind do this? Why does it create problems only to struggle, fight, and worry in the hopes of finding a resolution? 

Why does it insist on making a mess and then trying to clean it up?

You see, this is where the madness lies. It’s a never-ending loop. The mind is like a puppet on its own strings, caught in its own stories. The mind creates suffering and then desperately tries to escape it. This is exhausting, draining, and a waste of precious energy.

Let me ask you a deeper question: Why allow this mind—this "i" character—to create these problems in the first place? Why let it entangle you in a web of worry, fear, and desire, only to then search for a way out, a way to fix what was never real, to begin with?

This mind, shaped by past conditioning and habits, continues to play out its drama, leading you down paths of needless suffering.

Here is the key to liberation: awareness. You must know this character—the "i thought" you mistakenly identify with—and its endless desires, frantic thoughts, and habitual behavior patterns.

 Recognize that you are not this mind. You are not this story. You do not need to be enslaved by its endless creation of problems.

Let go of this character. It was born from the ideas and thoughts of others, shaped by society, family, and experiences. Now, it believes in these stories, and it acts them out. But this "i" is not you. It is fiction, a creation of the crowd. It is the story the mind spins, and you believe it, but it is not the truth of who you are.

True freedom comes when you transcend this mind-made cycle. When you stop believing in the stories it tells, when you stop identifying with its worries and desires, you step into a life of clarity and peace.

 You cease to be at war with yourself. The mind will still generate thoughts and experiences, but you will no longer be trapped.

 You will simply observe, without attachment, without reaction.

In this space of awareness, suffering falls away. The very problems that once seemed so real begin to fade. You see them for what they truly are: mere illusions, fabrications of the mind. And as you awaken to this truth, the mind's grip loosens. The endless cycle of worry of seeking solutions to never-real problems dissolves.

Today, I offer you this wisdom: The mind creates illusions, but you have awakened and can see behind the veil. You are the master, no longer its servant.

 You are not bound by the stories it spins. Step out of the loop, and you will realize that the true solution is not fighting the problems but seeing that they were never real.

Awaken, dear students, to the profound truth that you are not your mind. You are the observer, the silent witness. In this state of awareness, all suffering dissolves. You return to your true essence of peace, moving through life not as a servant of the mind but as a witness to all of its games.

Let's embrace this transformative journey to genuine happiness and well-being through fitness, meditation, mindfulness, and stress reduction. Visit us at nycfitliving.com to start your journey today.

"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...
