What affects the mind is often broken human emotion passed from one person to another.
Fear pulls on fear.
Anger pulls on anger.
Control pulls on guilt.
Sadness pulls on sadness.
Most of humanity lives emotionally entangled with one another without even realising it.
One person becomes unstable and the whole room shifts with them.
One person becomes offended and others are pulled into the offence.
One person carries fear and suddenly everyone is reacting to fear.
This is why so many people never come to rest within themselves.
Wholeness is not becoming cold or without love. It is becoming inwardly still.
It is being able to stand in peace while others move through their emotions without being pulled into them yourself.
You can love without carrying another person’s chaos.
You can care without losing yourself.
You can listen without becoming emotionally bound.
To me this is part of entering the Holy of Holies.
A place where the inner world is no longer ruled by reaction, fear, guilt, control, or emotional turbulence.
A place where the soul becomes still enough for peace, clarity, and the presence of God to remain untouched within us.
When our emotions are no longer being constantly pulled by the emotions of others, something inside us becomes whole again.
Here we are in the 21st Century and humanity still has not fully understood that we are spirit beings living within a human body.
Governments and systems have created facilities that care for the physical needs of the elderly and support many aspects of mental health and wellbeing. Yet very little attention is given to the spiritual emptiness many people carry within themselves.
We have the formula around the wrong way.
A person can have food, shelter, medication, entertainment, comfort, and every external provision, yet still sit inwardly dissatisfied with life itself.
I now understand why so many wealthy and successful people continue chasing more, more, more.
More success.
More possessions.
More achievement
.More recognition.
Yet the dissatisfaction remains.
Because no external achievement can fill an inward emptiness.
If the spirit within a person remains unsatisfied, then everything around them becomes an attempt to fill that unseen space. So they continue striving, building, achieving, consuming, and searching — hoping the next thing will finally bring rest.
Yet the same emptiness meets them again.
True peace does not come from endlessly adding more to life. It comes when the inner world becomes whole.
If people could slow down long enough to see the beauty already surrounding them — the small moments, creation, peace, love, connection, stillness, and the presence of God — many would no longer feel driven by the endless need for more.
Perhaps humanity does not need more stimulation.
Perhaps it needs restoration within.
