From a production application, it is an answer out of production: (Part of a letter that I responded to a dear friend)
"I understand where this game is your passion to seek the welfare of the" live now "you who were screened in a future" programmed "by the church and all those beliefs that brought you to achieve this, and now to put discussion of all your past? I believe that these three things' past, present, and future, living in symbiosis with each other, and even if you put all the good will, to live in the present, both past and future will always be there to create you doubt and uncertainties in the journey of life we are going along. "
On << What brought me to question this whole world, it was only a scaffold supported by convictions, beliefs and expectations based on promises of "redemption" future was the fact that this whole world has collapsed after several events .
First started in me to raise questions for some years before I left my church office. The breaking point was when my marriage ended, and there my world has stopped. Remember my article about the rigid structures, mental structures that are so rigid that any sudden tremor can smash?. http://www.selfspiritual.com/2009/09/strutture-rigide/
Remember ... the hope of a "paradise" future, creates a "hell in this." Heaven you must learn to see now or never. The rest is illusion.
After the disaster, however, is the reconstruction ... these "disasters" occur in nature and are needed to give rise to new life.
Remember the example of the lake?
Down "vertically" in the space of the present moment, letting you see, the depth, the motion of the waves without being brought to and fro by the waves.
There is no type of loophole if you want to move "horizontally" (through the past or the future), when you're in the ocean at the mercy of the weather (life situations) ... except to go into "deep "vertically, inside yourself, inside your body, feeling the feelings that are reflected in your body. The only loophole is there, right where you are.
THERE 'loophole in the PAST, trying to solve it. The more you addentri in the past, you realize you never find the bottom, there is no end, you always find the other and you're always in the "mercy of the waves."
THERE 'loophole in the FUTURE. Past and future are of the same material "ocean". The future projected by the mind is nothing but a replica of what was (according to your convictions, beliefs and way of seeing the world), your past experiences.
THIS?. No there is present in time. This it is perceived as a "means to get to ..." and generally can not you live in fact.
The present moment, the Now, not of time. It is only "space" in which there is a content (the situations of our lives, things that happen to us or we) that evolve and continuously transform.
The symbiotic relationship exists only between what we call the past, our history and the future, (which is just another story projected from your mind).
You can not just abandon the past when our identity is defined by it. As you are the "your past" you can never get rid of it. Why? ... Because there is greater psychological strength to avoid questioning your own identity based on the past.
From what you know you're identifying with your past? .. you just have to wonder: "Who am I?" and suddenly you start to come up with your memories, what you've done or not done, your failures, your strengths, what you have done, what you have done to others , your "titles", your job, your family background, your nationality, your color of skin, your age, your car, your home, your neighborhood, and so on ...
How to get out of this false identification? You must exit the "time" and deepen in the eternal here and now, the only place outside of time.
This what you see coming into your own body, feeling the physical sensations of the emotions you're experiencing now: frustration, "I do not understand what happens", dissatisfaction, feeling incomplete, "I'll be fine only when this or that will change" , etc..
See this motion of emotion that never ends, just like waves in the ocean. All these emotions have a relationship with your past or with the future (which does not exist because it is only a mental projection)
Feel, and stay alert, contemplating your emotions is to meditate. Meditation is not merely observe the motion of thoughts, emotions and let them be who they are at that moment.
You'll see that there will not lose track of time or guidance to know what to do or not do. Quite the contrary, you have your mind completely clean, free, relaxed to decide what best to do, free from conditioning with past and future but here and now.
