Have you ever made a mistake you regretted? Do you wish decision making was less frustrating? Do your choices reflect what you really need? Accurate discernment is central to our experience & enjoyment of life. But it’s not usually part of traditional schooling. Let’s put aside what we were taught and start making up for lost time… In Part 1 of this ‘TOO EMOTIONAL?’ series we postulated that our society had made a big mistake! That we had excessively promoted a ‘scientific ap

Humans are innately emotional. We’re VERY emotional beings: perhaps the most emotional creature we know of! But are we really ‘TOO EMOTIONAL’? Many believe that ‘being emotional’ is a handicap to rational functioning. Many believe that emotions cause intolerance & even conflict on Earth. They have convinced us to suppress & downplay our feelings. This has been a subtle part of our education & social conditioning. Was this approach all wrong? Have we unwittingly diminished & d

Our lives seem to lack direction! We just don’t understand the meaning & purpose of our life. So, we can wander aimlessly. We get trapped in the material world, with its temporary pleasures & tempting distractions. Is it just about competition & survival of the fittest? CONTEMPLATE THE TRUE PURPOSE OF YOUR LIFE! The discussion below is an opportunity for you to START this important INNER process. Seeking your true purpose is an important part of personal development and your

We are NOT that outer facade or ‘mask’ we wear. We are not just our social conditioning! We don’t need to remain wounded & skewed by past traumas. WE CAN BREAK FREE OF ALL THAT MIND CONTROL! We have the right to choose happiness! We have the right to be permanently happy! Each of us is a unique and precious individual. We each have deep inner needs and a unique life purpose. Only by discovering this special purpose and exploring our potential will we find contentment & fulfi

When we really look within, we usually find we’re still unhappy and unfulfilled. We are not at peace with ourselves! There is a subtle but pervasive emptiness and lack of contentment. What then should we do? WE NEED TO BREAK FREE from our past traumas & conditioning TO CHANGE OURSELVES. But maybe we’re not yet fully committed! Our conventional ego mind might perceive changing ourselves to be difficult or risky. This is the next life lesson (No.64): BREAKING FREE FROM OUR PAST

We can usually accept that personal growth will benefit an individual. But did you know there are also BENEFITS TO OTHERS AROUND? This extends to the human collective and even our whole Planet! The benefit to Humanity may be much greater than we imagine. We are being of service to others. Let’s explore how this is possible. People who are positive & loving, spread good influence through their positive interaction. This has an OUTWARD ‘RIPPLE EFFECT’. It also cascades down to

This question is said to be one of the most profound questions we could ever ask ourselves. An exploration of this can take a lifetime or much more. Is there a SIMPLE explanation for who or what we really are? If we are not just our body, or even our whole human experience, then what is our true nature? Are you ready to consider this? In keeping with the theme of the SoSimple.org website we will try to make this explanation SO SIMPLE, or as clear & as SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE. Howe

If we cultivate a thought, we’re responsible for its consequences. CHOOSE YOUR THOUGHTS WISELY! #attachment #stress #suffering #intent #contemplation

Our Ego-mind wants to identify, separate & disable any rival. Even if that rival ‘guidance system’ is an integral part of our true sovereign nature! Any alternative is however seen as an existential threat to the Ego’s power & control! Instead of just using Ego, our true ‘sovereign-self’ uses a guidance system that extends far beyond thought. This ‘inner-guidance’ process cannot be easily defined or described. It’s beyond conventional terms, symbols or concepts. It’s beyond t

We have previously discussed the importance of inner needs and the benefit in exploring these. These needs may signal something more than just our genetic makeup or life experience. Hidden needs may even predispose us to certain life experiences. They often manifest as a strong desire to express ourselves and share our special talents with the world. The outcome is a work in progress! Life lesson No. 13 is: WE HAVE A DEEP NEED TO EXPRESS OUR TALENTS & ABILITIES From deep with
