Insanity.
But insanity is definitely not what you think. Matter of fact, whatever you think insanity is, it isn’t, as there is no such thing as a thinker.
‘Radical’ as this might initially sound, check direct experience. Actually verify this. Find ‘the thinker’. Notice, awareness is aware of appearing thoughts. A ‘separate self’, ‘the thinker’, is never actually found.
Most common factors in mass shootings: access to guns, diagnosis of mental illness, and isolation. The term diagnosis means identification based on symptoms. Another way to put that is, behaviors & actions define the entity.
Well, the labels don’t identify another anymore than labels identify you. We casts labels which separate and isolate. Then we punish and isolate further.
What we’re not doing is listening when we need to express and be heard. We don’t listen. How much louder does it need to get?
Mass shootings arise of mass ignore-ance, which arises of self-ignore-ance. Underlying the surface level categorical write off of the ignore-ance that is the diagnosis of ‘mental health issues’, is the overlooking of emotional suppression, which is the overlooking of the truth of the depression felt - which is the overlooking of the natural, relentless, unstoppable uplifting buoyancy of Self.
Living in this world presently as is, is the trauma. Reality is unconditional love. The suppression of the expression of unconditional love, via believing thoughts, labelling each other, and selling identities and diagnosis’ & therein “solutions” to each other, is already violence, and violence unsurprisingly begets violence.
Emotion is not a thing, and is not of this world. Emotion is unconditional love appearing as this world. Emotion is our infinite being, being. Love is why some thoughts feel discordant & some thoughts do not. That which is feeling the thoughts, is love. That which is appearing as thoughts, is love. That which all thoughts are actually about, is love.
We are far beyond critical mass. There are presently more school shootings in America than there are days in this year.
Close the schools. Close them all without exception.
Close the businesses, every one, without exception.
For one day.
One day of listening will change the world.
Don’t preach. Don’t assert. Don’t correct.
Listen.
If you believe you are separate. If you believe in separation. If you believe you are separate from God-Love; you are experiencing insanity. You are not a thinker; you are a lover, you are God-Love.
