Peace – is it Love or Happiness?(Part 3)
The Discussion on “illusion”, Ego and Peace continues for the Third Day.
It is Suggested we Read article 1 and article 2 on this subject to give more background on this very important topic.
Psychegnosis News explains that the “Law of PSYCHEGNOSIS” is Peace in all things.
First we shall discuss what is Love and what is Happiness.
These Emotions are the most sought after by Human Beings.
Both these States are driven by feeling good about ourselves, and are almost 100% based on outside conditions.
For example, we Love our Family or our Church Group.
Jesus said, “that even Thieves and Hypocrites Love each other”.
We Love those people we consider to have our chosen values in Life.
Our Love is extended to those that meet up to our way of thinking.
The Love we have here is in the eyes of the World, the way it should be.
This kind of Love is Thought, and mind produced.
It can change when the circumstances change.
This Love is conditional.
This means it is conditional on what our mind tells us.
It has an end product or result in mind at all times, and is part of the “illusion”, that the mind and our thinking has created.
It is not PEACE.
Happiness is also an Emotion that is given a great deal of focus in our everyday life.
All around us advertisers tell us, we will be happy if we use their product.
We are constantly reminded that we need to be in Love or be accepted to be happy.
We seek happiness in everything we do.
Whatever we decide to do has the word Happiness connected to it.
It is usually connected to our “Story”.
Our “Story” will be about some Past event that made us happy.
We say, I will never be happy like I was then.
Guess what we get?
Yes, exactly to the letter – WE ARE NEVER HAPPY – at least not for long.
The next reason we give for not being happy is also conditional.
It is in the Future.
When my kids get older I will be happy.
When I win the lottery or have loads of money.
When I get to Heaven.
When something or other changes, I will be happy.
This is our mind talking.
These are our thoughts laying down the conditions for us to be happy.
These Emotional states of Love and Happiness, are no different from Hate or Unhappiness.
They are conditional on how we feel.
They fluctuate depending on how the World is treating us at that particular moment.
We are quite simply a pawn of, “who we think we are”.
We think in our heads – am I happy, or in love at this moment?
The mind is constantly looking for a reason to be happy.
It is like Russian roulette, or pot luck, depending on what Emotion decides to come into play.
Both Love and Happiness are conditional on our thinking.
They are not PEACE.
So what exactly is PEACE?
PEACE is REALISING that EVERY EMOTION we have is only a piece of INFORMATION that is DESIGNED to give us a CHOICE.
PEACE is being AWARE that we are NOT our PHYSICAL BODY.
PEACE is NON-VIBRATIONAL.
PEACE is the SOURCE of “who we truly are”.
Tomorrow we are putting off our article on Procrastination to continue writing on Peace.
