Looking at the Masking Mind

https://off-guardian.org/2020/06/06/coronavirus-fact-check-6-does-wearing-a-mask-do-anything/

There are always different ways of looking at anything.

But any mind fixated on an externalised experience to which it is subject while seeking to control, is in a self-isolating split-off or bubbled mind-control set in polarised opposition to its own reflections - not literal reflections of imaged form. but the reflected nature of a self-conflicted image.

So if our world is reflecting back all these active themes in the intent to manipulate and control - writ LARGE upon the Screen of our World (in which we are free to see differently). Is there any fruit in zooming out from reaction in its own terms, to look or feel within - which is to notice or allow into our consciousness not just the surface appearance in terms of their acquired or asserted currencies of meaning, but our own acceptance and choice of such such currency in framing our perceptions and reactions.

I note that covid offers an extreme example of where the reaction of defence is greatly more destructive than the fear - which may also be recognised as misplaced or falsely flagged to a normal cycle of respiratory disease - which is not proven to be CAUSED by virus or bacteria, which are produced by cells under toxic stress.

So in this way, we already have symbolic masking diversions for toxic conflicts which include strain of constant fear as well as environmental derivatives of social organisation - such as medical or industrial outputs.

My point is we have a seemingly automatic built in masking against conflicts that seeks to outsource or encapsulate and remove from active exposure, what we are not currently able - or willing - to clear or resolve.

The psychic dimension of our body-mind is therefore lost to magical masking by which to NOT know what is currently ruled out or suppressed by an overriding command of fight, flight - or indeed the 'freeze' of a traumatised dissociative surrender in alignment to the power of its subjection.

So the willingness and capacity to look at or see and appreciate something differently - as a result of transparency within our own body-mind to the field of energetic qualities that are embodied as our psycho-physical experience - is that of free attention in the field of awareness.

Abiding as free attention is what I call abiding as the heart - and this is the opposite of virtue signalling in that it is unselfconscious to judgements as a flow or receptive navigation of discernment within the moment - rather than imposed mind controls upon the moment - (that are actually dissociated imaginations and expectations given overriding priority).

Enforced masking identity under threat and coercion (itself masked as 'doing the right thing') inevitably provokes oppositional identity, as if NOT wearing a mask is our salvation - and therefore operates the overriding of free awareness by reaction.

The issue in dilemmas of what our life in the world seems to demand or require and our life in truth - which is not IN the world of self-isolated, separated masking others and things, is referred to by Jesus' answer to a trick public question as to whether it is right to pay taxes unto Caesar. But if our attention is fixated or captured by reaction to externalised forces, things and powers, we are unmindfully already 'lockdowned' in a choice to mask against the fear within - by casting out the conflict into any manufactured ruse or convenience of temporary escape.

And as a mental override of the feeling being of a true desire or 'will' we see it and react to it in everyone we meet - and by contagion of a split or broken communication brings a like response that makes a world - set in idols of defence over feared chaos - such that the living creative potential cannot be recognised in a newborn consciousness already denied.

Why we do what we do as the purpose we embody is in the meaning accepted and lived in our own hearts with no call to justify or apologise. But without an alternative perspective, Caesar runs operates sides of every conflict as the mind (of) control - set over the heart's knowing - which is not coercive - but commands allegiance by the recognition of truth.

Fear and control are two sides of a currency of conflict. You don't need to coerce yourself to do what you love or be who you are - but may have to become aware of the blocks set by fear and its suppression, that demand sacrifice of wholeness to protect a masking identity. Re-learning the difference between the masking of invested self-image and the true movement of our being, is the revisiting of old fears and conflicts in order to release them as self-reinforcing fulcrums from which to operate from.

We cannot preset what the heart should be - without subverting a true movement to a private agenda. So in the moment at hand, pause the reactive mind and ask or listen or feel within as a willingness to recognise any true quality of being - for where one is - they all are - unless the masking idol of the form of one is used to override and exclude the others.

It is 'unreal' and that may be enough to wake the clear intent to align in a reality that reflects truth, rather than persist in parleying or struggling with an 'unreal'.

The net operates entanglement by reaction, to result in entanglements that paralyse or lockdown the capacity to move. This is my sense of what occurs when we resist evil rather than resolving the conflict in our own heart and mind.

Why are we doing this?

Because once we deny ourself for a mask, the mask runs in our own name, perhaps without ever releasing our grip so as to set up a rigid structure of identity to die in?

I wore a mask while doing the insulation in my loft.

On another level I have a presentation to myself, and another to the world - which changes according to relational qualities.

When I meet others I extend some quality of recognition and acknowledgement of being - irrespective of their masking status, social presentation of opacity or transparancy.

That's another way of say I look for transparency as the function or service of the masking persona or adaptive mind to the human experience - and of course I meet challenges that wake me up from thinking I know! Meeting terror in the supermarket was a shocking experience that I had to expand to find compassion instead of reaction. That's a growth curve to rise in while fear-agenda seeks to flatten.

If you let insanity be insanity - there may be a release of burden. But as long as we are set in trying to wake it up or appeal to it for reason or demonstrate its unreason, we give it power of agency to infect our mind.

Insanity is a state of dissociation.

The fundamental environment in which fear-fuelled insanity falls away to restore present connection and communication is one of being accepted as we are - this is felt as being loved, but any attempt to do 'love' is felt as some kind of manipulative demand - which it is.

What if our life is not about perfecting the classroom, but of learning to be the love that we are - as distinct from anyone's 'ought to be'?

Virtue signalling makes a hollow within us that sucks 'evils' in by the very belief it can mask them OUT!

Now there is a moment for pause and wonder!
