Do you realize that people are deceptive thinkers? We are unaware that we live in a hypnotic environment. Our mental processes are hypnotic. The subconscious mind responds conditioned to the words we employ in our thoughts. The words’ actual sentiments are produced regardless of their meaning. The words we use are like the keys on a piano, and the subconscious mind is similar to that instrument. They make a particular sound. We play a melody on this keyboard 24 hours a day, yet most individuals have no idea how their brains function.
Fantasy and Reality
Our ability to reason and think requires the usage of our brains. Without using our minds, we won’t be able to comprehend how the mind functions, and without this understanding of ourselves, we would continue to exist in a world of illusions. In this article, I’ll try to explain how we trick ourselves. True, reality can be stranger than fiction. You don’t have to agree with me, but if you can, please attempt to refute what I’ve said in your head and see if what I’ve said makes sense.
Do you realize that words may hypnotize us into changing our perceptions and ways of thinking? In addition to using words for communication, we also utilize them to convey our emotions and thoughts. Words transport us through time and spark our creativity. Without language, we would be unable to escape the current eternal reality. We have used words to communicate and ponder since the dawn of time. The result of self-hypnosis is our ego. Without employing words, it is unable to manifest in the conscious mind. It must remain in the background if there are no words. But in order to survive in this harsh environment, the ego must constantly make an appearance in the conscious mind by using the brain and its thought process. As a result, using words and thinking develops into a habit.
We must comprehend how words affect us in order to comprehend how slippery our thought process is. Keep in mind that only the ego produces language. For instance, the word “soul” conjures up images of immortality and something that never perishes. It doesn’t matter if such a thing exists or not. The phrase “spirit” or “spiritual” immediately conjures up a reality distinct from the one we can see in front of us. When we employ the terms “heaven” and “hell,” the same thing occurs. They immediately produce a universe outside of the present. All of these words give our emotions shape. These phrases, which were formed by an ego seeking immortality, are used every day by people in their daily lives. Instantaneously, a realm of dreams and eternal life is created.
Let’s consider the “sun” and the “moon” as additional example. They are actual items that provide you an instantaneous, belief-free mental picture. Think about the terms “angel” and “Santa Claus” after that. Additionally, they provide an instant image, which most people do not consider to be real. However, for many people, the use of words like “God,” “Allah,” or “Bhagwan” can evoke a potent spiritual reality. Why? It’s because there is a belief system attached to these words. The ego never seeks the truth; it is always looking for immortality. Words like “resurrection” and “reincarnation” immediately conjure up images of a realm beyond the present with the consoling promise of continuing to exist after death. How can one not be seduced by such a lovely realm of illusion? It gets more real in our imaginations the more we consider it. Thus, in order to have a sense of serenity, permanence, and security, we imagine a completely different dream world.
Are we different from earlier civilizations when we compare our current ones to them? In every civilization, ego-created ideas and philosophies offer a safe haven. They demonstrate our efforts to align our thinking and behavior. They make an effort to provide purpose to our demanding, depressing lives. Unfortunately, individuals are willing to kill and die for their ideas because they are unaware of the mechanics of delusion and have no understanding of how the mind functions.
Yes, the words we employ elicit conditioned reactions in our minds. A similar impression is produced by the phrase “yesterday, today, and tomorrow.” These words transport us from the past to the present and the future when we employ them. Nevertheless, time doesn’t exist in actuality.
Today’s environment demonstrates how the ego employs the mesmerizing power of language to endure and thrive in this harsh reality. Words can bring us joy or sorrow. We speak aloud during both singing and prayer. Words amplify the emotions we experience when we fall in love. Music without lyrics does not have the same impact as music with lyrics. It appeals to our hearts and emotions and may cause us to cry. We immerse ourselves in a seductive universe of words every day for 24 hours. The hypnotic universe of a time traveler is maintained by the radio, TV, movies, newspapers, books, and vitamin d drops. It is understandable why the ego does not want to and cannot stop thinking. It harbors the delusion that if it doesn’t think, it might vanish from the mind. Since the ego can only manifest in our conscious mind through words, thinking nonstop develops into a habit, causing the mind to descend into an unending state of turmoil.
Thus, using the knowledge we learn from the outside world, the ego conjures up and builds a universe of dreams in its quest for immortality. Instead of facing and comprehending the truth, it would rather stay in a realm of illusion. This explains why academics are reluctant to examine the ego because they are averse to confronting their own perspectives and goals. The medical industry must be kidding when they claim to practice evidence-based medicine.
