View Full Version : The Future is Certain

David Icke said that the mind is a low-level form of intelligence. I thought about that in relation to the future. And it could be absolutely correct that the mind is very limited, as Eckhart Tolle has said, or perhaps even more correct: that the mind is a low-level form of intelligence.
What makes the future uncertain? Isn't the truth that it is the limitations of the thinking mind that make the future uncertain?! I suspect it is.
Even if we use rational thinking we can figure out that the ACTUAL future is not uncertain. It's only our inability, the thinking mind's inability, to accurately predict the future, that makes the future seem uncertain.
That turns us humans into control freaks. Since the mind isn't capable of fully grasping the future we often resort to trying to grab as much control as possible. But that generally only creates more conflict! The mind is still limited in its thinking, and our attempts of 'fascist' control only makes our minds even more strained.
A better approach would be to access a fuller form of intelligence, to rise above mere thinking. I don't know exactly how to do that, but couldn't it be possible to achieve by using our feelings more effectively?
I don't mean that the future is certain in a reductionist predetermined way. I believe the truth is more like Yoda said: "Always in motion, is the future." Even when the future is not predetermined, it doesn't mean that the future is uncertain.

The Illuminati are control freaks. They try to grab as much control as they can AND make the masses think of the future as uncertain. The more uncertain we take the future to be, the more control is given to the Illuminati.
Do you want to fight the Illuminati? Then why don't you start with making your own future more certain, why don't you. That's the correct kind of control. That's the good kind of power.
Start making your own future certain today! Rise above the mind's neurotic and limited thinking. Rise above the Illuminati control!!!

Ok, then how to make the future certain??? The trick lies in recognizing that the future already IS certain. Then you will drop the uncertainty from you mind. And that brings tremendous power to your consciousness. And with that power you will be able to effortlessly control your future.

Destiny is only a idea. It dont exist. Certainty and uncertainty dont exist. They are just ideas in our heads. That's what I think anyway, and I'm pretty certain that I'm right :D

Ok, that's a good point. The future is actually neither certain nor uncertain, because the future is a result of change, of creation, always containing novelty.
Another way to look at it is that the mind thinks itself separate from life. THAT is a major cause of uncertainty and fear. What we need to do therefore, is to align ourselves with life, to merge with life, to become one with life, to BECOME life itself. Then pure love will flow within us and out into the world. THAT is true power. :)

Yes, that sounds good to me Anders :)

Even when the future is not predetermined, it doesn't mean that the future is uncertain.
Please explain?

Please explain?
When something is predetermined, then the future is fixed, set in stone so to speak. I don't believe the future is fixed. There is creation going on all the time, and creation is more than just something that moves like a machine in a predictable path. There is newness, novelty in each new moment. So future moments will contain things that don't exist now, and cannot even be predicted now.
As steevo pointed out, to call the future certain is also false. At least from the perspective of the thinking mind. We must BECOME life itself, to get a better grasp of the future, and that probably means rising above the thinking mind.

Yet another way to look at it is to think about this moment. How uncertain is this moment? Not uncertain at all! The present moment is 100% certain. And then we can think of a future moment. How uncertain will that future moment be? It too will be 100% certain!
It could be that only our belief in death is what causes us to believe in uncertainty. Remove that belief and we will feel right as rain.

The thinking mind is very powerful. However, the amount of information the mind has to deal with is too much for it! So the mind is inadequate for dealing with reality.
What is needed is a leap in intelligence. One such leap could be the formation of a global mind. Such mind would be way smarter than our individual minds.
The global mind will be a collective field consisting of individual minds connected telepathically.
So, start learning telepathy today, or you will be hopelessly left behind. Good luck, and welcome to the Mind of Gaia!!!!! :D
