SELF SABOTAGE

Why do we keep doing what we are not supposed to do inspite of knowing that it is not good for me ???

This is what is called Self Sabotage.

The main big reason of Self Sabotage is the mind or simply stating a very weak mind.

Buddha stressed on meditation to make the mind highly concentrated and supremely focused which results in a very strong and a razor sharp mind.

Another way which I believe is still really good but not as effective as the meditation is prayers to overcome Self Sabotage.

The theory behind prayers is that that at an unconscious or deeper level there exist other realms or dimensions and in those realms are angels and demons.

The demons and angels influence our subconscious reality to such a greater extent that we cannot even imagine and that is clearly reflected in our conscious mind in the waking state , for example one of the best works of the demons are to make us sabotage our own self over and over again making it a solid habit which we want to get rid of but we cant.

Ever wondered having thoughts like why do I always end up with the same type of guy/girl, or the best one still is why does it always rain on me and there are a lot more examples where we feel that we are the worst victims and there is a pattern of it happening again and again in different situations and we have no control over it.

Now all of this happens is because the devil gets the best of our really weak mind.

In Tantra and Kabbalah I find this common solution to summon help from the angels or the demi gods and make them your friend so that they are around you more than those demons and the way to do it is to perform some simple ritualistic meditation but the best and the most simple way still is by prayers and by prayers I mean is to pray from the bottom of your heart asking for help from the almighty.

All in all the summary here is that to overcome Self Sabotage one needs a strong mind and there are many meditation techniques and methods to achieve that result and if you can combine your powerful mind with prayers then rest assured miracles would be the next thing we would be witnessing in our lives.

AWARENESS

Liveliness , joy and love is supremely existent in awareness and awareness can be achieved with a super attention in the present.

When we live in the present we free ourselves from anything bad happened to us in the past and the past doesn't exist so its good for us not to dwell on something which doesn't even exist and similarly we can also free ourselves of all the worries of what might happen in the future because after all who knows what is going to happen next and still we think that this might go wrong or that might happen and we get really tense , so why think about something which we dont even know how is going to unfold.

Thats why when we give our exclusive attention to the present we experience the joy of spontaneity, love, adventure and bliss.
