So we all are autistic. Trust me – we are. In our own stupid vestigial way our mind is autistic.
How?
We keep repeating again and again – in our Own minds – idiotic stupid demands. Without those demands the mind is never happy. And finally we cave in To the demands
We have built a cocoon Around us. And we are unable to escape. For example – the mind has insisted it needs to Eat 2-3 times a day. If you get enough calories, you really don’t need 3 meals. One is enough. But the mind starts insisting. And it insists so hard that the body begins to feel Hunger. You may argue that the body felt hunger then the mind follows. But if you are a yogi – you are able to delve in – go deeper than the body, you realize in the final run there is a vibratory aspect called desire that created it all
Thus we are now habituated to eating 3 times. The mind will no longer listen to reason. I need to eat. We get angry. Upset. Feel weak. Amazing.
The same is true for sex.
Or for money. Fame. We get a terrible hair cut. We get angry at the hair dresser. A minor inconvenience in life. Yet we get into rage Like silly things in life. Driving. Traffic jams
They are all habits. And that is what I call autistic mental demands we cannot escape from
For some reason I am unable to convey the full aspect of this remnant of the mind. But keep your eyes and ears open. You will notice – amazing I cannot reason with the mind.
How do you deal with it ?
