THE ONE TRUE PATH FORWARD
The
brain’s Prefrontal Lobe (PFL), which sits behind the forehead, is the most
recently evolved area of the brain. Many creative, executive, and other higher
mental functions are coordinated or take place there. It provides the basis for
a HIGHER FUNCTIONING MIND AND SELF.
Developing
this higher level self is the next step in human evolution and exactly what’s
needed for improving life. It’s the key to awakening and evolving authentic
spirituality and the means for achieving TRUE LIFE SUCCESS … the
true aim of all great spiritual teachers and practices.
We have this inherent possibility, but it requires belief in it … and intention … and daily effort
to actualize it. Absent these, we default
to a lesser and usual level of self -- regardless of intelligence and talent.
At
its default level, the mind largely
operates re-actively and is subconsciously driven by ego, inappropriate or
irrational emotions, physical urges, biases and mindless habits – which often
lead to less favorable results ... and at times, lead to harm to self
and others.
Such failures are essentially caused by
not recognizing the limits of one’s default mental functioning and thus make no
effort to practice more mindful living. Until
this is done, personal and human progress remain stalled; greater possibilities
go unfulfilled no matter how great are our desires, good intentions and efforts
may be -- we may dream, plan, scheme and struggle in vain … and still be less fulfilled
in the end.
This
is a key fact of human life!
Thus
we owe it to ourselves to develop a higher-conscious level of mind – i.e.,
practice mindfulness, self-awareness, conscientiousness, introspection and
meditation. Developing a higher functioning self is the only true path forward.
Goodness and
joy to all, Joseph.
