When You Are Aware, Your Mind Needs No Script!

Let us say your friend left you a message on your answering machine, 'Hey call me back immediately.'
Would't the suspense kill you? Slow down. Watch your mind. Before you pick up the phone to return the call, how many thoughts rush into your mind? How many hypotheses, scenarios, and theories your mind creates in a minute? How many fears it brings up? How many expectations it builds? Watch your mind with awareness. Catch the rush of thoughts, theories, events, and imaginations in the mind. Why do you think this happens? The truth is, no matter what the situation is, we create our own script. Our mind projects only what we want to hear or see. We want events to be projected only the way our mind wants them to be projected. We dare not present ourselves as we really are.

The rush of thoughts, the reactions, and the expectations, are all part of a script written by our mind. The mind continuously creates scripts, and when we are there in the play, we do not remember the script. Sometimes our mind changes the script instantly. Even before going to a friend's house, we have a complete mental rehearsal. Our mind prepares us for what we should speak. It practices dialogues. We decide how to answer if a friend asks something: we choose how to evade questions, or answer them cleverly or smartly. Our mind is scheming about this meeting with our friend. All this happens seamlessly within us, so we won't even own up to the fact that it happens in us. We might even deny it. But it is the truth.

If we are scared about speaking to our friend, then imagine how much our mind will spin when we have to talk to our boss, manager, or colleagues. The truth is we are afraid to face our friend. We fear to express truth because it keeps us out in the open. We are afraid that every time we express truth, we
are expressing ourselves.

By speaking the truth we are exposing our true nature, our core, our being. When we lie, we have a big problem on our hands because everything has to be carefully woven into the web of lies and a single truth can disrupt all our lies. We need to remember the whole thing we have said so far or plan to speak. If you live with the truth there will be no need for any more activity in the mind. You will relax and become spontaneous. You won't need a script anymore.
