THE SECRET GARDEN THAT IS OUR MIND
“When humans discover the secret garden in their mind, they awake as the consciousness they are…nurture their inner garden, and from their reality enjoy the harvest of every seed they plant on the inside”
Before I realized that my mind was the secret garden where I plant my experiences, I had ruined my garden to the fullest. I had planted all the destructive seeds you could think of.
Fear of lack, fear of failing, fear of not pleasing others, fear of not fitting in, fear of expressing and being myself. My experience was that of pain and deep suffering, as every one of those fears manifested in my reality. It was wanting out of suffering even if it meant getting out of planet earth, that woke me up to the truth about “how the mind works”.
Using the same mechanism(self-talk) that I had used to manifest undesired reality unconsciously, I used it to heal myself which brought harmony. Since that time a conscious relationship with my words was formed, and this relationship has transformed my life.
The only way I can express my gratitude is through paying it forward to others, so that they can use the same mind techniques and break free from suffering.
In our modern world once a child is through with learning the basics of life, they are taken to school…Where they are taught different subjects that shape a skill out of a student later in life. One is taught to use their mind and out of knowledge comes a great profession. They are taught what the mind can do but not how the mind works, thus the competition of who can do better than the other. Our educational system leaves us half open. We know we can do great things with our mind, but we do not know how the mind does it.
“It is not about what the mind can do, but about knowing how the mind does it”.
When we change our focus from what our mind can do to how the mind does it, we find “the key that opens us up to the dominion over our reality”.
Great people in history like Albert Einstein, Michelangelo, William Shakespeare, Caroline Herschel, Nicola Tesla… All these are people who understood how the mind works and brought their mind to greatest creativity.
Sin- (the fall of man) is simply “man being in the darkness about how his own mind works”.
Many people use electricity but they do not know how it works, same with the mind. Everyone is using their mind, but many do not know how it works…and that is the mother of all undesired states in human life.
It is never about what happens to a person on the outside, it is about what is happening in the mind of a person that creates the outer reality. If today you eat food without washing your hands or realize that the food you ate was somehow not hygienically handled, you will most likely get a stomach upset. But a street child eats food from the dustbins, sometimes rotten food and do not get sick. How can that be while the bodily system of the street child is the same as ours?
“Our reality is governed by our beliefs”. The street child does not see the dirt they see it is food, therefore no signals are sent to their brain as danger and that is why their bodies do not react to dirt.
Our mind is like the soil, and just like the soil germinates a seed, in our mind we plant seeds that create our reality. A seed is a tiny plant waiting for the right conditions to germinate or start to grow.
Our feelings are the seeds in our mind, waiting for words (our inner conversations) to germinate or grow. And just like the soil does not choose which seed to germinate, it germinates all.
Our mind does not choose which feelings to germinate either, it germinates everything spoken and felt for a long time…may it be constructive or destructive.
“Our words birth our feelings that birth our reality”.
Your experiences are the product or harvest of how you feel. What you are feeling now is what you are manifesting. Your outer reality is a reflection of your inner feelings, and your feelings are the seeds sprouting from your inner words.
“The more you say it the more you feel it, and the more you feel it the more you experience it”. You can only feel what you are saying, and you can only experience what you are feeling.
“You harvest what you plant”
Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked for whatever man sows, this he will also reap.
Trying to change the outside before you change on the inside, is like expecting your image in the mirror to smile before you do, or like standing still and expect your shadow on the ground to move.
To change the undesired experiences, it is to our words (our beliefs) on the inside that we should turn to. “Change on outer reality can only come through change internally in your inner conversations”
It is when you succeed to psychologically walk away from your problem to your solution, that your reality will move away from experiences that reflect the problem to experiences that reflect your solution.
It is not about chasing what one wants, it is about being in an “allowing mode” for it to manifest and come to you. By making sure your words and feelings matches what you want to experience.
Mark 11:12 And when ye pray and ask for something believe you have already received, and you will be given whatever you ask for.
“When I run after what I think I want, my days are furnace of stress and anxiety. If I sit in my own place of patience, what I need flows to me and without struggle or pain. From this I understand that what I want also wants me, is looking for me and attracting me. There is a great secret here for anyone who grasps it. Rumi…
Our words birth our feelings that birth our reality!!!Oh my such a powerful statement!!My take home!
Thanks very much ruthyy for the amazing book.
According to me what I have learned from this book is that mind is a good garden for a good seed to grow towards our souls May God give us wisdom and spirit of patience.
We should create the reality we want and our words have the power to determine the kind of life we want. I have learnt that my mind is like a garden and I can plant the kind of life I want. “Change on outer reality can only come through change internally in your inner conversations. What an amazing lesson!
“It is not about what the mind can do, but about knowing how the mind does it”.
When we change our focus from what our mind can do to how the mind does it, we find “the key that opens us up to the dominion over our reality”.
Today’s lesson is Soo amazing 🥰
…The more you say it the more you feel it, and the more you feel it the more you experience it”. …is the way to success. Love it
