Don't Believe Everything You Think: Why Your Thinking Is The Beginning & End Of Suffering

Therefore, it's not WHAT we're thinking about that is causing
us suffering, but THAT we are thinking.
To summarize, we do not have to try to "think positive" to
experience love, joy, bliss, and any positive emotions we want
because it is our natural state to feel those emotions. The only times
we don't naturally feel these emotions is when we begin to think
about the thoughts we're having, thus blocking the direct connection
to Infinite Intelligence and we feel stressed, anxious, depressed, and
fearful. It is not about the content of our thinking, but that we're
thinking, which is the root cause of our suffering. The intensity of the
negative emotions is directly correlated to the amount of thinking we
have going on in the present. The less thinking we have, the more
space we create for positive emotions to naturally surface.

CHAPTER 6
HOW THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE IS CREATED -
THE THREE PRINCIPLES
“If the only thing people learned was not to be afraid of their
experience, that alone would change the world.” — Sydney Banks
At its fundamental level, the human experience is created by these
three principles: Universal Mind, Consciousness, and Thought.
These three principles work together to allow us to experience
everything we do in life and if one of the three is missing, we
wouldn't be able to experience anything. These principles were first
discovered by Sydney Banks and now I have the humbling privilege
to share them with you.
Understanding these three principles enables us to know how we
can alleviate ourselves from our suffering, but also allows us to
create from Source.
Universal Mind
Universal Mind is the Intelligence behind all living things. It is the
life force and energy that is in all things. It is how an acorn knows
how to grow into a tree, how the planets know how to stay in orbit,
and how our bodies know how to heal itself when we get a cut. It's
how our bodies know how to self-regulate and keep us alive without
us having to manually do everything like breathing and beating our
heart. The Intelligence that knows how to do all of this and is in all
things is called the Universal Mind. Many people call this God,
Infinite Intelligence, the Quantum Field, Source, and other names.
This is where Thoughts come from as well as everything else in the
Universe. All things are connected by Universal Mind. There is no
separation between anything, and any time there seems to be
separation between things, it is merely an illusion of our thinking.
When we are connected to Universal Mind, we feel whole, fulfilled,
filled with love, joy, peace, and inspiration. It is only when we begin

thinking (believing the illusion or ego) that we block this flow of
Universal Mind and begin to feel separated, frustrated, lonely, angry,
resentful, sad, depressed, and fearful.
