No one has never been anxious. Most people are worried that they have no other way except to endure the torture without any effort, and most of the methods taught in the books on the market are not effective.
However, when anxiety arises, it is indeed another opportunity for us to gain spiritual growth, but this is for those who can seize this opportunity. Anxiety is an opportunity. By eliminating anxiety, our minds will be purified to varying degrees. How to eliminate anxiety? Generally speaking, there are two ways: psychological enlightenment and spiritual awareness.
The first method: psychological enlightenment
This work is generally done by a psychological counselor. It will peel the cocoon into the deep thoughts of the anxious person through inquiries and other methods until it helps the anxious person find the root of the problem. When the anxious person sees the deep reason for the anxiety, he will naturally find a way to relieve anxiety.
In this way, anxious people are treated as psychological patients, and it is difficult for anxious people to complete their own psychological enlightenment alone, because in addition to professional shortcomings, the emotions of anxious people will also seriously restrict their rationality.
In fact, psychological enlightenment is what we often call "doing ideological work". Anxiety must come from the mind's thoughts. When we are completely trapped in the mystery of thoughts and cannot see the truth, we will develop emotions such as anxiety. Through positive thinking, we will find the direction to go home along the lost road.
However, psychological reconciliation is a very complex way to eliminate anxiety, or it is easy for us to make it very complicated. Although it can be very simple, it requires a high level of wisdom for ordinary people, so few people will truly eliminate anxiety by doing ideological work. They are only temporarily relieved, and the root cause has not been eliminated.
Freezing three feet into one day is not cold. Most anxiety comes from the subconscious mind, which is a dark area that is difficult to reach when awareness is conscious. There is very little truth that can be seen through the exploration of thought. We must not underestimate the power of various emotions and complexes accumulated by ourselves. They are difficult to open through conventional means. Moreover, the mind is best at self-disguise. To resolve the problem of the mind through the mind itself is equivalent to letting the thief catch the thief. Only by transcending the mind can we truly subdue the mind.
When a person falls into financial anxiety, it is basically not feasible to eliminate anxiety by doing ideological work. It may turn into self-deception. This seemingly simple but common anxiety is actually difficult to eliminate. Either solve financial problems or “see the truth.”
For ordinary people, as long as financial problems are eliminated, anxiety will naturally be eliminated. Most people’s anxiety comes from specific external problems, such as financial scarcity. Can this eliminate anxiety by doing ideological work? This is the business of the anxious person himself. Others cannot replace it, nor can they replace it. This requires a second way to eliminate anxiety.
The second way: spiritual awareness
and it studies darkness, why not introduce light. Spiritual awareness is a fundamental way to eliminate anxiety.
Suffering or troubles come from confusion. The suffering today comes from the fruit created by delusion and caused by delusion. The taste of this fruit is bitter.
What exactly is a mystery? In fact, it means forgetting the truth or not seeing the truth, or it can be said that it means forgetting one's true face and entering into false appearances.
The subconscious maze is difficult to get out of the mind. Only when we stand at a higher dimension can we see all this. This is called spiritual awareness, which means using our original wisdom to observe all this.
What should I see? When anxiety arises, observe anxiety itself.
Anxiety is an emotional feeling. We don’t have to figure out how it occurs, nor do we have to take countermeasures, but just be aware of it. We must be aware of the anxiety feeling itself and use awareness to perceive, pay attention, watch, and shine the anxiety feeling.
Before conscious of it, first accept it, allow its existence, and do not fight, reject, suppress or escape it.It is just a tangled messy energy. Just feel this energy. We don’t need to guide this energy at all, it will dissipate on its own.
When this energy dissipates in observation, the foundation that causes anxiety will gradually shake or even completely collapse. When you develop the habit of observing, your other negative emotions will be disintegrated and will never come again, unless you cultivate them again.
In this way, anxiety will be eliminated by itself, just like the sun shining on the ice, the ice will automatically melt, which is a complete melting.
After observing for a long time, your inner ice will become less and less, and even the sunshine will be left. You will have no object to observe, only the observation itself.
The method of spiritual awareness is most suitable for daily practice, which is the same as the principle of health preservation. Psychological remission is mostly suitable for emergency response. Although they all have effects, their depth of effect is very different.
The first method is to cure the treatment, which can only save the temporary suffering, but the spiritual awareness method can exchange for the leap of life, allowing us to completely get rid of suffering and gain happiness. The first method is difficult to complete independently, while the second method can be completed independently. Originally, completing self-rescue is your own business.
