The World is Full of Noise
As we discussed in our written article about Turning Down the Volume, the world is full of noise! Just as our image above, it’s like a constant barrage of blah, blah, blah. All of which has little to no actual importance in our real life.
Yet, we may find ourselves persistently absorbed by the latest news headlines, TikTok and Instagram videos, Facebook posts and Twitter tweets.
Video Topic Outline
The topics in this video generally follow those of the article by the same name. They are listed below:
- The Matrix – The “noise” machine has us, just like in the Matrix.
- 96 Times Per Day – Checking phones every 10 minutes.
- Caffeine, Alcohol and Cannabis – Stimulate our brain’s pleasure center. So do gadgets; they are addictive! Like drugs, checking our phones & playing video games causes our brain to give us a “hit” of a chemical that makes us feel good.
- Self-Reinforcing – The Subconscious, the domain of habits.
- Those Pursuing their Spiritual Path – The “Noise” is particularly harmful for those on the committed spiritual path.
- Outer World Negativity Funnel – The daily news funnels negativity.
- The Sound of Music – “Activity Suggest a Life Filled with Purpose.”
- Phones, Gadgets & Karma – Over involvement in outer worldly activities is like taking on someone else’s karma or problems.
- If Our Subconscious Could Talk – Keep him distracted…
- The Solution – Be Aware, Not Involved – Be aware of outer worldly activities, but do not become personally involved in the world’s problems as if they were our own. They’re not!
- What does “Turning Down the Volume” Look Like? – Our lives become more peaceful and serene.
- Our Home, Our Sanctuary – We allow only those things in that serve our Highest Good.
- Shift of Focus – We focus only on that which is ours to learn.
- Service to Others — Help others help themselves; but do not become involved with problematic people who create unwieldly situations and problems for themselves and others, then take no responsibility for addressing them.
- Be a Living Example – As we turn down the volume in our life, we become the living example for others to follow.
