The power of an open mind


If I were to put a numerical value on the reasons some people have success with the readings that I offer and eventual spiritual growth and change, and others are not, should match the level of openness that show and act accordingly. It is not the will or the force that initially for changes, but these factors drive the direction that determines an open mind. It is not love or even ask, unless they are new products of the action taken by an open mind. It seems that an open mind opens the way for possible amendments to the spirit of improving itself, and has a closed mind closes down the road, or make a massive diversion of the path to spiritual progress.

What makes a person work with an open mind, and then progress more spiritual? Apparently, the decision to do this is all you need. The decision to help then things like the actual exam itself and the evaluation and release of old ideas that work against a person, towards acceptance and integration of new ideas, which then activate and support the change. Without an open mind, none of these actions may be because the person will never see or hear new information sufficient to take in nothing but what they already know. This is where I would say, if my practice is any indication, about 40% of the world's population resides in their mind and spirit. This is because the world is a mess, and God allows us to address the problem, with a little action until they forget the evil of self-involvement that keeps us from having an open mind.

Therein lies the problem. It is not likely that anyone would consciously choose to stay "Stuck on stupid" by choice, even when you can see that something is wrong. I'm talking about the group of people who come to me first, because I know first hand that they have identified a problem, because they did actually come to me. So not a large group, but already looking for answers. This puts them in order to be ready to change at some point, because they have at least identified the fact that something other than their way of seeing the world, could be of use in their spiritual journey. This is a big step. But what happens after the first step to 40%, is a source of confusion.

However, the weather, it seems, heals and solve everything, as long as you are working. Even 40%, usually does not get stuck at all, but makes some changes, usually in accordance with the things that are most painful of life. So, since I noticed that this happens, I tried to examine what common factors causing the slowdown or stop in the places where people stop on their way to growth. Even if 40% can not make significant changes, the 60% who do, about 35% to 40% make some changes, and then stop. It 's rare that 20% to 25% that actually attaches to read like a job, and studies to make the changes real and concrete almost 24/7 to surprise me with. Many of us are in that group, 35% to 40%, including myself, even though the more I do this, the more I dance among this group - the stubborn at times - for group 20/25% - the ever stubborn, or in other words, a closed-minded. The terms are generally synonymous seems.

Since I am also suffering from this syndrome from time to time, I looked at this phenomenon to try to determine how they, thinking and reasonable people who are trying to find spiritual answers, and to strike the wall. When the others in that 20% rarely, which is ultimately the objective. The common denominator of what I can say is that when we are dealing with a concept that is against our current system of beliefs, we stop letting of new information, and then we stop to take the action that works for us in constant moving forward, spiritually speaking. In this way, we stop our show, but if you do not surrender, we'll discover that there immobilized resting place, and push through it.

A good example of this is that check-cashing business Visa wonderful when all these young people - teenagers and twentysomethings must be because of things they can do with their bodies - are in a clothing store to buy things, and everything is moves along famously, the end, like a well oiled machine. And then this young man gets up to the bar, after a mind that challenge robotic, disjointed, floor to standing upright without effort (if you can call it that) at the counter and pulls out his checkbook. Everything stops, because it has slowed the progress of moving forward from this minor inconvenience that stopped not only her, but all other interactions. It soon becomes clear off, change gear, pull the paper out of control and everything starts to flow freely again.

This is what this impasse in spiritual development as it is, because of the actions of a closed mind. It is a stalemate that blocks all movements not only in our minds, but in the people around us, and the world in which we live. This happens every time we stop the movement with their inability to have an open mind and continue to push through what we do not understand. It happens every time we have to force other people to bend to our will, and bend to our way of working, why can not we be open minded enough to find a new way, or to adapt to one that is going well. Often, we prefer to stick with what we know, even if it is not efficient, good, reasonable or beneficial, yet familiar. We were able to protect our minds closed so they can stay safe in the knowledge that what we believe, is how things are. But to what end?

On a personal level, our growth is slackening. At Community level, helps us to design foolishly, for the protection of ourselves and our own small concerns, while ignoring the larger group - or, more germane, the ideas of others that are not ours, but require a more wide, or an open mind. When this concept was held in the global community, we have a hot mess! And has anyone noticed? This is exactly what we have.

So when presented with a personal ability to regulate our particular mode of operation and to exercise an open mind, we should do it, so you can flex this capability and make it stronger, and then switch itself, small communities, at larger global community, so that when we have the technology and capabilities (people and it's coming at the end) to move to a universal community, if we have acquired this ability to move in different ways by a closed mind, we will take our the same bad habits and consequent canteens with us. There will be trained or able to function in an environment with other people who have learned this skill, and we all suffer. So let's work harder to get and keep an open mind, and reducing downtime for open-minded thinking to 0%. In this way, spend more time to be productive and moving forward, as the man incredibly flexible young advertising Visa.

Such a great metaphor that have developed in a television commercial seemingly innocuous. An open mind, creates a greater flexibility, and then the forward movement. Let all of us who fight for ourselves and the world. It is no mistake that God has put into this training camp with all the obstacles. We must work to learn this concept and put into practice in every situation imaginable. The key word is "work".
