A Change in the Chemistry of Thought

Can a person actually change the way they think and react? Is that change a superficial alteration or a deep personal self realization? If one were to realize a state of consciousness that is unconditioned, then a very significant psychological transmutation would take place. It is possible that ones entire life would be transformed. Psychologically one would be without any attachment that defines. When the identifying self is sublimated then there is freedom that is conducive to a state of awareness that alters the thought process. There is understanding that is not born of the self, that is, it does not emanate from a preoccupation with a consciousness that is predicated on motivations of the self absorbed. When the self absorbed consciousness moves to the background then there is space for something totally new. There is clarity that brings about a consciousness that is neither sought after nor formulated. It is an absence of the dual nature of the thought process. When thought realizes its own movement there is a change in the chemistry of that movement. A stillness is brought about by an understanding that sees into the root of all conflict.

Awareness that is choiceless and timeless changes everything in ones life. With the dissipation of the self comes understanding of the unconditioned. It is a consciousness that transcends and transmutes all previous ideals. It is the transubstantiation of the self as the movement of time/space into the unknown. One is no longer defined or identified. One is an anonymous spontaneity that exist wholly in the moment.

One may think that this is all just a lot of gibberish coming from some quackadoodle? But if one has passion for the truth then a realization will come that is not the result of this writers efforts or any other personality that is seeking to get into your pocketbook and create a following of mindless drones. The truth is you have to do all the work. You have to see through your conflict and confusion to find the truth that is within. Words provide definition and create an ideal, but they are never true reality. You have to realize and see in the immediate now, the absolute moment, the violence and conflict of your own mind. You must see it as though it were a rattlesnake right in front of you and act.

Does thought actually change or is there simply a transcendence within the workings of the thought process? The chemical processes that occur in thought are the result of recognition and identification. When there is stimulus there is response. That response is wholly the outcome of the repetition of the known. Memory is thoughts movement through time as the repetitive projection of the known, the image of self. When there is thought as the duality of the separative self there is only a consciousness that discerns though affectation. Ones thoughts and thus actions are always incomplete, a finality that is a total release is never realized. The subconscious mind is the storehouse of this pent up emotional baggage. Though we may not be aware of it, this baggage continually affects the way we perceive reality and its resulting conflict.
